On This Day
Vic Crowe's Villa make it successive League victories for the first time since October to make it eleven wins, six draws and four defeats in twenty one division three games so far this season.
Villa win, Fulham lose and Rovers win to leave the Bristol team top of the table and Fulham and Villa joint second, two points behind. Villaโs victory comes courtesy of a third successive clean sheet and Chico Hamiltonโs tenth goal of the season to make him Villaโs joint top scorer with Pat McMahon and Andy Lochhead.
What they Said
โThatโs a tremendous psychological factor.
โAnother booking and I will be up before an FA Disciplinary Committee, so thereโs always the fear of suspension.
โIt has affected my game a little - itโs bound to.
โSometimes I pull back just that little bit or take the tiniest amount of edge offa tackle.
โBut Iโm not particularly worried about this latest spell [one goal in his last nine games].
โGoal scoring is not the greater part of my game, but, as a centre forward, Iโm expected to knock in a few.
โSeventy per cent of my game is taking the knocks and laying the ball off - making chances for others.โ
Andy Lochhead.
