Alec Logan and his brother Jock score for the second time this season but as on the opening day, Villa are beaten once again.

Villa are 2 down in 8' at Roker Park before Bert Turner - playing in place of the injured Billy George - saves a Sunderland penalty and Edmund Eyre scores to give Villa a chance of recovering the game in the second half.

Villa who deserve to be level concede against the run of play on 55' to give Sunderland a 2 goal lead. Villa's incessant attacking necessitates a rearguard action from Sunderland and inspired goalkeeping from Roose and finally got a deserved goal on 62' yet within 2', again in no context to the game, Sunderland extend their lead to 4-2.

Villa would not lie down however and continued to press with Alec Logan netting on 85' however there was no equaliser forthcoming and Sunderland took the points.

Villa lose for the fourth consecutive game in all competitions to make it eight wins, seven draws and eight defeats in their twenty three division one games so far this season.

Villa stop a run of four losses as they secure a goalless draw for the first time this season however they are now without a win in five to make it eight wins, eight draws and eight defeats in their twenty four division one games so far this season.

Villa dominate proceedings and take the lead midway through the first half but a lucky equaliser and two more goals against the run of play do for George Ramsay's side.

Harry Hampton scored on his return to the side but Villa lose for the fifth time in six.

Villa suffer their fifth defeat in six to make it eight wins, eight draws and nine defeats in their twenty five division one games so far this season.

Villa dominate proceedings only to concede against the run of play after 37'. The second half follows the exact same pattern and Bradford score a second despite being on the end of one way attacking traffic. To make matters worse the visitors rough play puts them three up with a Charlie Wallace consolation 4' from time all Villa have to show for their efforts.

Villa suffer their sixth defeat in seven to make it eight wins, eight draws and ten defeats in their twenty six division one games so far this season.
