On This Day
Freddie Haycock scores for the third time in four games as Villa bombard the Fulham goal from first to last but they cannot add to their two goals.
Nevertheless it's Villa's fourth win in five and fifth in eight so far in 1937-38. Up next is another struggling side, Plymouth at Home Park.
Villa record successive wins for the second time in five games as they climb to joint second in the table alongside five other clubds on 11 points, one point behind leaders Coventry after 8 games.
