ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 12 March 1977
Villa play out a bore draw at Wembley in the League Cup final against Everton but there are trophies won regardless as Andy Gray wins both the PFA Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year. It was a day of disaster all over at Wembley though as two coaches from the official party collide, Brian Little goes to hospital for a late ankle injury and both sets of players have to pause the game in the second half to look for a spur dropped by the marching band at half time.
Ron Saunders' Villa are held to a goal-less draw by Everton at Wembley in the League Cup final with a replay needed.
