Biography

Player #294 for Aston Villa, Cecil Vernon Harris, played as a full back for the club. Cecil played for Villa between 1922-23 and 1925-26 making 26 appearances over his 4 seasons.
Villa had signed Cecil from Llandrindod Wells in September 1922.
Cecil was born in Grantham on 1 October 1898 and he made his debut appearance for Villa on 16 December 1922 aged 24.
Cecil only ever featured in the league for Villa and was used mainly as a backup in his first 2 seasons, thereafter he was a semi regular, adding 29 appearances before moving on to Grimsby Town.
Cecilโs connection with Villa wasnโt over on his departure however, being the uncle of Villa great Eric Houghton who would go on to serve the club with such honour in the coming decades.
Cecil had played under the George Ramsay led Management Committee.
Cecil passed away on 16th August 1976 aged 77.

Villa suffer a Christmas day nightmare as they are reduced to six men through injury and are hit for six without reply to record their heaviest defeat since losing 1-7 at Turf Moor in February 1921.
Keeper Cyril Spiers, defender Alec Talbot, midfielders Frank Moss and George Blackburn and forward Albert Surtees are all incapacitated with Surtees the first to be rendered unable to perform in just the 5' of the game.
Villa make it six wins, ten draws and five defeats in twenty one division one games.

Centre forward Arthur Phoenix scores a brace on his Villa debut aged 22 after joining from Birmingham in May 1924 but it's a patched up Villa who do the business after losing 5 players to injury in the previous day's game at Elland Road.
One day after shipping six against them, Villa beat Leeds on Boxing day to make it seven wins, ten draws and five defeats in twenty two division one games.

On This Day
Villa are selected to play away from home on New Years Day for the 13th time in the 14 fixtures they have played on 1st January.
Villa had played their first New Years Day fixture in January 1891 and have now played just one home game on 1st January in 35 years.
Villa lose for the 11th time in 14 New Years Day fixtures and score for only the fifth game.
Villa open 1926 with a fourth defeat in their last five games as Len Capewell hits his twenty fourth goal of the season.
Villa make it ten wins, seven draws and six defeats in their twenty three division one matches.
Meanwhile, full back Cecil Harris, aged 27, made his final appearance of twenty six for Villa over his four seasons with the club before moving on to Grimsby Town.
