ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 30 March 2002
Villa fail against a relegation threatened club for a second successive game to leave them with one win and four defeats in nine Premier League games under Graham Taylor but at least the new boss begins to show some interest and passion at the predicament Villa are in.
Peter Crouch, 21, makes his debut in a Villa shirt having joined from Portsmouth for a fee of £6,750,000 just a few days earlier to become the 758th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Ian Taylor scores his 40th goal in a Villa shirt on his 269th appearance (237 Starts) to make it W114 D71 L84, 40 Goals, 16 Assists, 47 Bookings and 2 Red Cards at a goal involvement rate of one for every 4.80 games played so far in his Villa career.
Peter Schmeichel concedes 3 goals for the 7th time this season on his 34th appearance to make it W14 D8 L12, 1 Goal, 42 Goals Conceded at a rate of 1.24 goals per game and 10 Clean Sheets (29%) so far in his Villa career.
Thomas Hitzlsperger contributes his 1st assist in a Villa shirt on his 7th appearance (5 Starts) to make it W1 D1 L5 and 1 Assist so far in his Villa career.
