Villa suffer refereeing misfortune away at Manchester United after referee Kirkham disallows two legitimate Villa goals to the astonishment of all present.
Whether that would have changed the result is moot but it certainly changed momentum as the holders eventually ship 5 at Clayton Road in the third round of the FA Cup.
Meanwhile, centre back John Boden made his Villa debut aged 24 after joining from Clapton Orient earlier this month.

On This Day

Villa win consecutive games to end the season in 8th place having recorded eighteen wins, five draws and fifteen defeats in their thirty eight division one games. A season that had been notable for the number of debuts and final appearances - including a significant portion who both first appeared, and left in the same season, and sometimes the same month - underlined the status of transition that the club was in. The season itself couldn’t have been more contrasting to the exciting, goal hungry season of 1904-05 and much more stability was to be needed for 1906-07 if Villa were to return to trophy winning form.

Villa suffer a second loss in three games as their decent early form takes a wobble to make it six wins, a draw and three losses in ten division one games so far this season. Meanwhile, centre back John Boden and midfielder Billy Matthews made their final appearances for Villa aged 24 and 26 before moving on to Northwich Victoria in August 1907 and Notts County in November 1906 respectively. Boden had scored twice in eighteen appearances since his debut in February 1906 whilst Matthews scored 12 goals in 26 games since his debut in March 1904.
