On This Day
Villa remain without a manager 20 days after the sacking of George Martin but Eric Houghton, who is assumed to be the man to replace Martin, continues in his role at Notts County despite being out of contract and keen to join Villa
Shrugging off the behind the scenes incompetence, Villa make it three consecutive wins as they climb to joint third place in the early first division table.
