ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 3 January 1981
Villa are knocked out of the FA Cup by title rivals Ipswich and unlike their undeserved League defeat at Portman Road in September this game saw Villa always second best as Peter Withe was fortunate not to be sent off for an incident with Terry Butcher that left his shirt tattered and stud marks on display.
Ron Saunders' Villa lose in the FA Cup to League leaders Ipswich and make it four defeats in the last eight games in all competitions.
🟥 3 Jan 1981, Villa 0-1 Ipswich, Portman Road.
