On This Day
David O'Leary plumbs new depths with performances and excuses as what little goodwill that remained is extinguished with a humiliating defeat to Doncaster.
It had been coming, another humiliating Cup defeat to lower league opposition under David O’Leary was nothing new, but this was on another level as the players he had spent the best part of his time as manager belittling and deriding simply gave up playing. It was almost as if they wanted him gone. The supporters certainly did and, before even the turn of December, the manager was a dead man walking. The only outstanding questions were when, and whether he would finally take the Chairman with him.
Thomas Sørensen makes his 100th appearance in a Villa shirt to make it W39 D25 L36, 128 Goals Conceded at a rate of 1.28 goals per game and 32 Clean Sheets (32%) so far in his Villa career.
