ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 4 May 1991
Villa concede five for the second successive game and the third time in seven games but the match proves very different at Elland Road as Villa fight back twice to equalise before three late Leeds goals end Villa's resistance.
Meanwhile the Birmingham Evening Mail are presumably skipping with joy as they can put the knife in even further despite the hypocrisy of admitting beneath the headline that Villa aren't going down.
Tony Daley makes his 200th appearance in a Villa shirt (170 Starts) to make it W71 D50 L79, 28 Goals and 23 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.92 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Kent Nielsen scores his 5th goal in a Villa shirt on his 93rd appearance (90 Starts) to make it W39 D23 L31, 5 Goals and 7 Assists so far in his Villa career.
Centre forward Gary Penrice's goalless streak extends to his 10th appearance (7 Starts) to make it W2 D2 L6, 0 Goals and 1 Assist so far in his Villa career.
