ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 23 November 1963
From the sublime to the ridiculous as the inconsistency keeps coming with defeat at unhappy hunting ground Turf Moor.
Joe Mercer's Villa continue their inconsistent season, as their win one, lose one form reaches six games and they fail to score for the sixth time in eleven to make it seven wins, a draw and eleven defeats in nineteen League games.
