On This Day
Frank Broome scores his fifth in as many games and his fourteenth in sixteen as Villa win three consecutive games with promotion not yet guaranteed but likely.
Villa now have twenty four wins for the season with a game left to play.
Villa return to the outright top of the table on 55 points two clear of second placed Sheffield United with Manchester United and Coventry two points further back but with a game in hand over Sheffield United.
If Villa beat Norwich in 10 days then the Championship and promotion is theirs but depending on how results go their return to the top flight could be confirmed before then.
