  • The original replay match up between these two sides took place on Saturday, 17 February 1894 and ended in a 2-0 victory for Villa however due to the game being played in a heavy fall of rain and snow, at the conclusion of the game a meeting of the Emergency Committee was held, and it was decided to regard that match as a friendly one.
