On This Day

  • Villa recover from 3-1 down to equalise with three minutes to go but County hit back before a second Villa equaliser is foiled at the hand of a County player, knocking Villa out of the Cup despite protests.

  • Villa failed to qualify for their first FA Cup semi final following a disputed winning goal for the hosts. 

  • With the game level at 3-3 Notts County scored what would prove to be the winner before Villa had a goal ruled out despite it being handled on the line by an opposition player thereby preventing its legitimate entry into the net. 

  • Wing half David Anderson, forward Andy Hunter, goalkeeper Tommy Mason and half back Ted Lee made their final FA Cup appearances for Villa.
