ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 26 March 1983
Nigel Spink errs again as his confidence looks shattered after Villa's Juve knockout but the mistake doesn't cost fourth placed Villa who end goalless against bottom club Brighton.
Tony Barton's Villa, reigning European Champions, fail to score for the second successive game and for the fourteenth time this season but keep a clean sheet to make it sixteen wins, four draws and thirteen losses in thirty three League games this season.
