Match Timeline

On This Day

Vic Crowe's Villa end the season with nineteen wins, fifteen draws and twelve defeats in forty six division three games. A season which had promised so much ended with a brave cup final defeat but a collapse in form thereafter that would mean Villa would spend a second successive season in the third tier. Sitting top of the League in February, a record of seven losses, seven draws and just three wins in seventeen games left Villa fourth in division three and two places off the promotion places.

On This Day

Vic Crowe's Villa make it two wins and a draw in division three so far this season as centre forward Andy Lochhead scores his first League goal since 19 December 1970. Lochhead, no stranger to goal droughts, had to wait sixteen games for his first goal after joining the club in February 1970 and had scored just ten league goals over three seasons, six of which came in a run of 6 games in September 1970.
