Biography
Player #477 for Aston Villa, Norman James Ashe, known as Norman Ashe, played as an outside right for the club.
Norman played for Villa between 1959-60 and 1961-62 making 5 appearances.
Norman was born in Bloxwich, just 10 miles from Villa Park, on 16 November 1943 and made his debut appearance for Villa on Saturday, 2 January 1960 aged just 16.
Villa may have had an up and down time on the pitch during the 1950s however one thing the club got very right was their youth policy of which Norman Ashe was a product.
Dubbed โMercerโs Minorsโ the group included Alan Deakin, Charlie Aitken, John Sleeuwenhoek, Harry Burrows, Mike Tindall and Alan Baker. Although Norman wasnโt the most successful of the โMinorsโ he had sterling influence over three spells with Cornish side Falmouth Town.
Before that however Villa had signed Norman from Brierley Hill Schoolboys in July 1958 and he signed professional forms with the club in November 1960.
Norman made just the one appearance as Villa took the Second Division Championship and won promotion back to Division One at the first attempt.
Norman would not feature at all in the following season and would only return to the first team in 1961-62 making 4 appearances and playing his final game for Villa on Saturday, 28 October 1961 still only 17 before moving on to Rotherham United for a fee of ยฃ2,000.
Norman played under manager Joe Mercer.

Villa open 1960 with another win - their 17th in 26 games so far this season.
Joe Mercer's Villa extend their unbeaten run to five and win for the fourth time over that period to make it seventeen wins, six draws and three defeats, all away, in twenty six division two games so far this season as their excellent progress towards promotion from the second tier continues.
Meanwhile, winger Norman Ashe made his Villa debut aged just 16 after joining from school football in July 1958. At 16 years and 48 days old, Ashe becomes the youngest player ever to appear for Villa.

On This Day
Villa win by 5 to nothing in a performance nowhere near that which they put in on Monday when they were mystifyingly held to a draw by an over-run Manchester United. No one was complaining though as Villa rose to 14th with a team of youngsters showing huge potential.
Joe Mercerโs Villa record their biggest win of the season to date to make it three wins, two draws and three defeats in eight Division One games this season.

"For 80 minutes [Villa] reduced Spurs to a state of irritated impotence." But the reigning champions score late to send Villa back down to 18th in the table still having not played their two games in hand.
Joe Mercerโs Villa fail to score for the second time in nine League games to make it three wins, two draws and four defeats in nine Division One games this season.

On This Day
Villa suffer a shock defeat to Birmingham after going behind within 39 seconds of the start, despite having more than their fair share of the game and the chances Villa can't make it count. The folly of letting Stan Lynn cross the city looks even more silly now.
Joe Mercerโs Villa mark their 150th game under his leadership with a disappointing defeat at home to neighbours Birmingham to make it five wins, three draws and six defeats in fourteen Division One games this season.
Meanwhile, winger Norman Ashe made his final Villa appearance aged 17 before moving on to Rotherham United in March 1963. Ashe had played for Villa between 1959-60 and 1961-62 making five appearances.
