ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 28 January 1989
A horrific game in which Villa outclassed Wimbledon in play and personality but lose. Wimbledon have a player sent off for a deliberate elbow but only two others booked despite 22 fouls and a penalty.
Villa had ten attempts, Wimbledon had only one that forced the keeper to react - the goal - whilst Villa had five, including the penalty which brought repeated excellent saves from Segers.
Graham Taylor's Villa's troubled January continues as they are dumped out of both Cups and record one League win.
Meanwhile, a seeming casualty of Villa's poor form is midfielder Andy Gray who makes his final appearance for Villa aged just 24 before moving on to Queens Park Rangers in February 1989 for a fee of £450,000. Villa had bought Gray from Crystal Palace in November 1987 for £150,000 and played in 1987-88 and 1988-89 making 42 appearances and scoring 6 goals.
