On This Day
  • Despite, or maybe because of, the games coming so thick and fast Villa record their biggest win of the season and fourth third division victory in five games to climb to joint first alongside Bournemouth.

  • Vic Crowe's Villa make it six wins, one draw and two defeats in division three so far this campaign. As a result Villa vault into joint first place, level on points with AFC Bournemouth with 9 games played.
