ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 7 February 1981
Villa and Everton serve up another peach of a match at Goodison as they win yet more admirers to go with their top of the table status as they continue to raise the standard of football in a refreshing change from the dour, pragmatic fare offered up by recent champions Liverpool. Only the woodwork stops Villa accumulating a cricket score.
Villa make it five wins in six to make it eighteen wins, six draws and five defeats in twenty nine League matches this season under Ron Saunders
Villa remain in joint first place in the Division One table level with Ipswich.
Gordon Cowans scores his 25th goal in a Villa shirt on his 192nd appearance (177 Starts) to make it W87 D51 L54, 25 Goals and 24 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.92 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
