ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 14 October 1967
Brian Godfrey scores for the third successive game since his debut and Brian Greenhalgh for the second consecutive match as Villa win for the first time in six to record their third win in twelve second division games under Tommy Cummings. Villa sit joint eighteenth, one point clear of the relegation places. The game though is notable for the referee being attacked by Millwall fans and leaving the field unconscious on a stretcher.
Tommy Cummings' Villa win for the first time in seven to make it three wins, a draw and eight defeats in twelve League games so far this season.
