Recent history of Aston Villa Aston Villa records and statistics
The 1964–65 English football season was Aston Villa's 66th season in the Football League, this season playing in the Football League First Division. Dick Taylor had moved on to Sheffield United in 1956 to work under Joe Mercer, and two years later joined Aston Villa as Mercer's assistant. He took over as manager late in the 1963–64 season after Mercer resigned due to ill-health.
Dick Taylor succeeded in avoiding relegation, which resulted in him being handed the job on a full-time basis but the seasons saw little improvement in form and future financial difficulties loomed.http://www.avfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/FormerManagersDetails/0,,10265~1156997,00.html Former Managers: 1960s Aston Villa F.C https://web.archive.org/web/20090303052005/http://www.avfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/FormerManagersDetails/0%2C%2C10265~1156997%2C00.html 3 March 2009 dead dmy-all
