On This Day
Villa bounce back from their Goodison difficulties and hammer Forest at Villa Park to climb back to 14th but with plenty of games still in hand on those around them.
Dick Taylor's wildly inconsistent Villa follow defeat with another victory to make it ten wins, two draws and twelve defeats in twenty four League matches.
