ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 5 April 1969

Tommy Docherty's Villa lose for the second time in three games and now have just one win in their last seven games as their excellent early form under the new boss rapidly becomes a distant memory. Villa make it eleven wins, thirteen draws and fifteen defeats in thirty nine division two games so far this season.

🟥 5 April 1969, Villa 0-1 Oxford, Manor Ground.

MATCH QUOTES

“They were terrible. “The people I feel sorry for are the fans who travelled from Birmingham … we really let them down. “It was not so much losing but the way in which we lost. “It was a shocking team performance. “Their attitude was all wrong.” Tommy Docherty suggests the dressing room is no longer responding.
