ON THIS DAY
Monday, 6 April 1964
Villa, whose all out attacking instincts had regularly cost them points this season, revert to an overly defensive strategy at Old Trafford and still lose to remain 16th with two to play.
Joe Mercer's Villa lose for the first time in four but now only have two wins in fourteen to make it eleven wins, twelve draws and seventeen defeats in forty League games under Mercer.
Meanwhile, full back Cammie Fraser made his final appearance for Villa aged 22 before moving on to Birmingham City in May 1964. Fraser had played for Villa in 1962-63 and 1963-64 making 40 appearances and scoring once.
