ON THIS DAY
Tuesday, 14 March 2006
Villa fall to successive defeats for the first time since November and are beaten in the FA Cup 5th round replay prompting David O'Leary to dribble out more drivel that strongly suggested he was not too well.
Meanwhile, David O'Leary's limited grasp on reality continues as the first XI he fielded aged 29, 26, 28, 25, 21, 28, 32, 21, 20, 24 and 27 are described as "young lads ... the future of club ... they will learn from that”. If he didn't know the ages of his own team, what on earth did he also not understand?
Milan Baroš makes his 25th appearance in a Villa shirt (24 Starts) to make it W8 D9 L8, 10 Goals, 6 Assists and 5 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one for every 1.56 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Steven Davis suffers his 25th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 64th appearance (53 Starts) to make it W21 D18 L25, 9 Goals, 3 Assists and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
