ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 16 January 1904
  • Small Heath, simply referred to as Heath by the media typify their like after "a grossly unsportsmanlike bit of work" by Green renders Villa's Alex Leake unconscious.

  • The story of the Birmingham derby, when not being crushed by Villa, Small Heath in all their guises rely on outrageous fortune to get a result against their betters and so it proved today as Green, a player who should have been ordered off, plunders an 85' equaliser for the lucky minnows.

  • Villa extend their unbeaten run to six but are held by Small Heath to make it twelve wins, five draws and five defeats in twenty two Division one games so far this season.
