On This Day
Villa make it three games unbeaten in the third division to climb back to second in the table after seven games, one point behind Fulham and a point ahead of Plymouth, Bristol Rovers, Rotherham, Mansfield and Bradford.
Vic Crowe's Villa make it four wins, two draws and a defeat in seven division three games so far this season.
What they Said
"I think I'm good for at least 20 goals this season.
โThere are chances to be taken and I see no reason why I shouldn't take them now.
โMy confidence is coming back.
โThe first goal against Preston was among the fastest I have ever scored and after the second I thought there was a real chance of a hat-trick.
โIn the second half pat McMahon left me with a chance and I tried a shot that I though was going to bring goal number three, but it went just wide of the post.โ
Andy Lochhead.
