On This Day
Villa win for the first time in ten games as they put five past Leicester who would end the season relegated as Dai Astley hits a hat-trick for his fifteen of the campaign.
Villa record victory for the first time in ten as they score as many as they had managed in the previous six League matches in one game.
As a result they make it nine wins, seven draws and nine defeats in twenty five under Jimmy McMullan.
Villa keep their third clean sheet in twenty six games under McMullan and their first in twelve, having conceded 58.
Celebrated Villa left back Tommy Mort made the last of his 370 appearances for Villa aged 37 before retiring from football.
