ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 6 September 1969
Villa score for the first time in four League games - their second and third goals in seven second division games - but they are already two down to fellow strugglers Millwall at Villa Park before Dave Rudge’s three minute brace secures Villa’s second point of the season to sit joint bottom of the table with Watford.
Tommy Docherty's Villa make it two draws and five losses in seven division two games so far this season arresting a run of four losses and leapfrogging Watford to climb to second from bottom of the table.
