ON THIS DAY
Wednesday, 11 November 1987
Graham Taylor's 🏴 Villa are hammered in the meaningless Simod Cup in front of a crowd so small it is barely worth recording.
Midfielder Paul Birch 🏴 makes his 🕒 150th appearance in a Villa shirt (141 Starts).
Midfielder Mark Burke 🏴 18 makes his 8th & final appearance in a Villa shirt (5 Starts) before moving on to Middlesbrough for £50,000 in December 1987. Burke left with a record of 🟩 W2 🟨 D2 🟥 L4, ⚽ 0 Goals and 🔥1 Assist.
