ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 9 February 1889

Villa lose to runaway league leaders Preston North End having drawn against the 'invincibles' in the return fixture. The sheer quality of their football however further highlights the needlessly shocking and rancourous behaviour of William Sudell in the FA Cup the previous season.
