ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 22 March 1980

  • Villa are forced to play Allan Evans and Kenny Swain up front as Tony Morley hits a screamer of a volley to earn Villa a point after three successive League defeats but their Achilles heel of missed chances presents them taking a deserved win against the "heavily manned defence" presented by Ipswich.

  • Villa make it twelve wins, twelve draws and nine defeats in thirty three League matches this season under Ron Saunders.

  • Gordon Cowans makes his 150th appearance in a Villa shirt (135 Starts) to make it W63 D43 L44, 18 Goals and 17 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 4.29 games he has played so far in his Villa career.

🟨 22 March 1980, Villa 1-1 Ipswich, Villa Park.
