On This Day
Villa's first win in eight in difficult conditions keeps Villa 17th but with a three point cushion to the relegation places with four to play.
Dick Taylor's wildly inconsistent Villa win for the first time in eight games to make it thirteen wins, five draws and twenty defeats in thirty eight League matches.
