On This Day
Villa leave it late to beat BPA after Eric Houghton misses a first half penalty before Frank Shell hits his fifth goal in three games and Freddie Haycock scores a last gasp winner.
Villa record three consecutive victories for the first time since October to make it twelve wins, four draws and five defeats in twenty one division two games under Jimmy Hogan.
As Villa win Coventry can only draw and the gap is closed to a single point however Sheffield United are now three ahead but have played two games more.
