ON THIS DAY
Graham Turner's Villa win for a third consecutive match to make it twelve wins in thirty four League games, whilst losing eleven. Since the turn of the year Villa had won four consecutive League games, followed by a five game winless run, and were now on another winning streak with eight left to play and a top ten finish - which had seemed so unlikely before the new year - looking possible.
