On This Day
Villa make it four wins in five unbeaten games as Fulham draw with Preston. Villa move joint top of the table on fourteen points after ending Wrexhamโs 42 game unbeaten home run, who miss a penalty, lose their goalkeeper to concussion and see a lenient refereeing performance that keeps Villa at eleven men.
Vic Crowe's Villa make it six wins, two draws and a defeat in nine division three games so far this season.
Meanwhile, forward Dave Gibson made a goalscoring Villa debut aged 22 after moving from Leicester City earlier this month, whilst fellow former Foxes centre forward Andy Lochhead hit his fifth goal in four league games after failing to score in the previous 16 matches.
