ON THIS DAY

Monday, 9 March 2020

  • Villa's concerning form continues as they throw the game away at the King Power after arguably their ninth poor performance in their last seventeen Premier League games as the season is suspended due to the Covid-19 pandemic. 

  • As Villa capitulate at Leicester, leaving them looking odds on for relegation languishing in 19th place, it is revealed that club legend and one of the greatest people in Villa's history, Gordon Sid Cowans, announced earlier in the day that he was suffering from the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. 

  • Villa had now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 22 away games in the Premier League. 

  • Villa had now lost five consecutive games in all competitions for the first time since February 2017.

  • Bjรถrn Engels makes his 19th and final appearance for Villa (17 Starts) and after a challenging spell with the club leaves with a record of W3 D2 L14, 1 Goal and 1 Booking. Engels would however remain throughout the following 2020-21 season but would not appear for Villa again.

  • Pepe Reina concedes his 10th goal in a Villa shirt on his 6th appearance to make it W1 D1 L4, 13 Goals Conceded and 0 Clean Sheets so far in his Villa career.

  • Conor Hourihane collects his 25th booking in a Villa shirt on his 136th appearance (111 Starts).

  • 10 days after the game the tragic news breaks that former Villa winger Peter Whittingham has died aged just 35, Whittingham had played for Villa from 2003 to 2006 making 66 appearances and scoring twice.

  • Meanwhile, Danny Drinkwater, an abject failure of a signing, is sent home from training after an alleged headbutt on Jota at Bodymoor Heath. Drinkwater, who made 4 appearances with a record of W1 D1 L2, 0 Goals, 0 Assists and 2 Bookings would never play for Villa again.
