ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 3 December 1983
Centre forward Paul Rideout 🏴 19 scores his second ⚽ goal in a Villa shirt as Tony Barton's 🏴 team record a narrow win over second placed West Ham to climb back to seventh in the table.
Villa make it 🟩 eight wins, 🟨 three draws and 🟥 five defeats in 🕒 sixteen League games this season.
Winger Tony Morley 🏴 29 makes his 180th & final appearance in a Villa shirt (170 Starts) before moving on to West Bromwich Albion later this month for a fee of £75,000. Morley left with a record of 🟩 W86 🟨 D36 🟥 L58, ⚽ 34 Goals and 🔥 34 Assists.
