ON THIS DAY
Monday, 3 January 2005
Villa lose for the sixth time in eight Premier League games as Roy Aitken takes his turn to demoralise a struggling squad with the latest reverse coming against a relegation threatened Crystal Palace and who hadn't won in 11.
Meanwhile David O'Leary doesn't turn up for the post match interviews instead sending assistant Roy Aitken as the fractures with the fan base widen and his unpopularity with the media increases.
Luke Moore remains without a goal on his 20th appearance in a Villa shirt (1 Start) to make it W9 D5 L6, 0 Goals, 1 Assist and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Gavin McCann collects his 10th booking in a Villa shirt on his 57th appearance to make it W25 D16 L16, 3 Goals, 3 Assists, 10 Bookings and 2 Red Cards at a rate of a card every 4.67 games so far in his Villa career.
