ON THIS DAY
Wednesday, 21 February 1990
Villa toy with Tottenham at White Hart Lane winning in second gear against an increasingly frustrated Spurs side whilst Villa's ascendancy at the top of the League prompts the Birmingham Evening Mail to use their back page to tout Graham Taylor for an England post that isn't vacant.
Villa make it fifteen first division victories in eighteen games under Graham Taylor.
Villa sit top, two points clear of Liverpool with a game in hand.
Tony Daley makes his 125th start in a Villa shirt (154 Appearances) to make it W54 D38 L62, 22 Goals and 21 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.58 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Ian Ormondroyd scores his 6th goal and contributes his 10th goal involvement in a Villa shirt on his 42nd appearance (33 Starts) to make it W20 D7 L15, 6 Goals and 4 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 4.20 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
