ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 16 November 1963

  • Villa's crazy season continues as they batter 3rd place Manchester United at Villa Park, taking the lead after 35 seconds on route to a 4-0 triumph. Denis Law embarrasses himself again whilst it's clear for all to see that Joe Mercer genuinely does not know what Villa side will turn up game to game.

  • Joe Mercer's Villa continue their inconsistent season, winning for the third time in ten, equalling their biggest victory of the season to make it seven wins, a draw and ten defeats in eighteen League games.
