On This Day
Villa record a desperately needed second win of the season as Dick Taylor’s side triumph at Bloomfield Road to collect their first away points of the season and sit joint 17th in the table, level with Sunderland, West Ham and Sheffield United, two points clear of the relegation places.
Dick Taylor's wildly inconsistent Villa win away for the first time this season to make it two wins, one draw and four defeats.
