AVFC HISTORY MATCH SUMMARY

Villa and Everton serve up another peach of a match at Goodison with Ron Saundersโ€™ side winning yet more admirers to go with their top of the table position as they continue to raise the standard of football in a refreshing change from recent championship teams. Only the woodwork stops Villa accumulating a cricket score.

MATCH QUOTES

Villa.gif
2509-2.png
โ€œVilla deserved to win.โ€ Everton boss and former Villan Gordon Lee. "You can see good games like this every Saturday because we've been taking part in matches of this nature week in and week out. โ€œIf they start changing the rules and regulations it will be a backward step, not a forward one. โ€œThe problem this season is that although there has been a tremendous amount of good football played around the country the recession has meant it hasn't received the publicity it has deserved. โ€œThey donโ€™t see football like that on the continent. โ€œThis is the best in the world. Ron Saunders.
