ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 29 February 1992
Villa lose their fifth League game in eight and now have just one Division One win in 1992.
Villa fail to score for the sixth time in eight first division games in 1992 but remain 8th in the table.
Right back Earl Barrett, 24, makes his Villa debut after joining from Oldham Athletic earlier this month for a fee of £1,700,000 to become the 687th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Goalkeeper Les Sealey makes his 24th and final appearance in a Villa shirt before returning to Manchester United on a free transfer in January 1993. Sealey,. one of the least likeable individuals to ever wear a Villa shirt, left with a record of W12 D3 L9, 27 Goals Conceded and 9 Clean Sheets at a goal conceded per game rate of 1.13 and a clean sheet rate of 38%. Sealey’s departure was not mourned.
Former Villan Steve McMahon orchestrates another victory against his old club.
🟥 29 February 1992, Villa 0-2 Manchester City, Maine Road.
