ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 18 January 1964
Villa take the game to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and have their chances to win but Bridges loses the shackles of Sleeuwenhoek to snatch the winner midway through the second half.
Joe Mercer's Villa underline their inconsistency once again as they follow up their second win in ten with a third loss in seven to make it nine wins, five draws and thirteen defeats in twenty seven League games.
