On This Day

  • Clem Stephenson scores for the third time in two to help Villa win for the second time in four games.

  • Villa take the lead just after half time as the Derby players inexplicably ease up play to claim offside, not once, but twice, and Villa remained focus and score past an embarrassed defence.

  • Villa bounce back from a first defeat in five to beat Derby and make it seven wins, four draws and seven defeats in their eighteen division one games this season. 

  • Meanwhile, forward John Laidlaw and centre back Jack McLaverty made their Villa debuts aged 22 and 21 after joining from South Shields and Birtley Colliery in December 1913 and February 1913 respectively.
