With Fred Biddlestone injured Bill Carey is named as replacement 'keeper just 10 minutes before kick off as a late decision is made to play him ahead of 16 year old clerk from the Villa staff offices, Alan Wakeman.
Eric Houghton hits a brace to make it three in as many games as Villa get their promotion push back on track with a seventh win of the season in eleven games under Jimmy Hogan.
Villa recover from their third defeat in ten games to beat Newcastle and make it seven wins, a draw and three defeats in eleven division two games under Jimmy Hogan.
