On This Day
Villa cause controversy as they make changes to their XI and field a weakened team for the trip to Notts County. Ironically one of the 'weakened' team is Joe Bache, a player who would go on to be one of the greatest players of his generation.
George Ramsay's reigning champions return to League action and lose for the third time in four in their title defence.
Reigning champions Villa lose for the third time in four to make it nine wins, eight draws and nine defeats in their twenty six division one games.
Meanwhile Forward and future Villa great Joe Bache made his debut aged 21 after joining from Stourbridge FC.
Centre back Chris Mann made his final appearance for Villa aged 28 before moving on to Burton United.
Forward Willie McAuley made his final appearance for Villa aged 21 before moving on to Portsmouth.
Forward Albert Brown made his final appearance for Villa aged 21 before moving on to Southampton.
