ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 15 October 2016
Five years previously the appointment of Steve Bruce would have caused riots in the streets however needs must and the experienced second tier specialist, parachuted in to a free-falling Villa, leads the team for the firs time - whether popular or not, Villa had made their first astute managerial appointment in a decade.
Jonathan Kodjia scores his second goal of the season in Steve Bruce’s first game in charge but he can’t change the trend as Villa draw for the eighth time in ten games.
Ross McCormack makes his 10th appearance in a Villa shirt (9 Starts) to make it W1 D5 L4, 2 Goals, 1 Assist and 4 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Future Villa centre back Kortney Hause lined up for Wolves.
Micah Richards makes his 31st and final appearance in a Villa shirt (29 Starts) to leave with a record of W4 D6 L21, 2 Goals, 1 Assist and 3 Bookings. Richards' wins had come in 2015-16 against newly promoted Bournemouth and lower League clubs Birmingham and Wycombe and fellow relegated side Norwich. Richards had proved an unmitigated disaster with poor performances combined with high wages and an almost permanent presence in the treatment room. Frustratingly, Richards would not leave the club until July 2019 having continued to receive his hefty remuneration whilst contributing nothing in a Villa shirt for over 3 years.
