On This Day

  • Villa struggle to beat relegation threatened Championship side Blackpool in the third round of the FA Cup as they sink ever further under Paul Lambert.

  • Shay Given makes only his second appearance in a Villa shirt since 25 January 2013 and second his season having been ostracised by Paul Lambert for the last 59 games.

  • Ashley Westwood secures his 25th win in a Villa shirt on his 84th appearance (82 Starts) to make it W25 D20 L39, 3 Goals, 9 Assists and 11 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

On This Day

Tommy Docherty's Villa now have one League defeat in thirteen matches and seven wins under his stewardship but have now not won in four to make it ten wins, thirteen draws and thirteen defeats in thirty six division two games so far this season. The results however are only one side of the story with the football under Docherty best described as conservative, the aggression, fouls and booking counts up and time-wasting used as a clear tactic, but despite the concerns, Docherty's results are keeping Villa well away from the danger zone but seventeen games into his tenure there is widespread desire for the shackles to come off and for the football to mirror the manager's self confidence.

On This Day

Dick Taylor's Villa - without a win under his leadership - make it two draws and five defeats in seven League games this season. As a result, Villa now have just four wins in the last thirty three matches after a torrid final twelve months under Mercer and a terrible start to life under Taylor. Meanwhile, winger Johnny Martin made his one and only appearance for Villa after joining from school football in July 1962. Johnny moved on to Colchester United in May 1966.

On This Day

Joe Mercer's Villa lose successive games for the first time since November and fail to score for the fifth time in the last eight as they are beaten at Bloomfield Road. Villa, in trying circumstances, have now lost by four goals to nil in two of their last four away League games. As a result Villa make it twelve wins, seven draws and nine defeats in twenty eight division one games so far this season as a campaign of such promise continues to falter.

On This Day

Joe Mercer's Villa end 1960 with just three defeats in their last sixteen make it thirteen wins, ten at home, three draws and nine defeats, seven away, in twenty five games following their return to the top flight. Villa's return to division one had been an unqualified success so far as a small squad had dealt admirably with a fixture pile up to record some impressive League results and to progress in the inaugural League Cup ahead of their first FA Cup fixtures of the season.

On This Day

Joe Mercer's Villa concede five for the second successive League game and life back in the top flight looks significantly more challenging than it had after the opening day win over Chelsea. Villa had now conceded twelve goals in three games but had managed to score eight over the same period suggesting goals for were not going to be the problem. As a result of the defeat by the seaside Joe Mercer makes it fourteen losses in thirty one top flight matches as Villa boss and makes it a win and two defeats in three division one games so far this season.
