Villa win for the second time in three with George Stephenson scoring two and creating one.
3-0 up in 11 minutes, 4-0 ahead at half time, Villa concede three in the second 45' but hold on to record three successive unbeaten League games for the first time since November.
Villa make it twelve wins, thirteen draws and sixteen defeats in forty one division one games.
Villa go outright 15th in the table with one game left to play in 1924-25 - home to bottom side & relegated Forest.
Centre forward Arthur Phoenix, 23, made his fourth and final appearances during which time he scored three goals before moving on to Barnsley in May 1925.
