Match Media
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.

โ€œThere are chances to be taken and I see no reason why I shouldn't take them now.

โ€œMy confidence is coming back.

โ€œThe 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.

โ€œIn 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.
