ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 29 October 1966
Villa win at White Hart Lane for the first time in 32 years but goalscorer Lew Chatterley suffers a broken nose to join John Woodward on the sidelines after Tony Hateley at long last left the club. But it is Colin Withers who is the real hero as another show go goalkeeping excellence keeps Villa’s lead intact.
Dick Taylor's wildly inconsistent Villa record a third clean sheet and second win in four after conceding twenty and losing the previous four to make it four wins, two draws and eight defeats in fourteen League games so far this season.
