Villa secure their fourth win in seven to double their tally of wins from the previous twenty five Premier League games under Paul Lambert.

Darren Bent makes his 1st appearance in 2 months in a Villa shirt on his 60th appearance (50 Starts) and had now been substitute in 9 of his last 14 games, starting just twice in the League, having only been a sub once in his first 46.

Holman's 2012 record was 22 Appearances, 16 Starts, W6 D6 L10, 2 Goals, 4 Assists and 1 Booking.

Villa record their biggest win under Paul Lambert and deliver one of the most important wins in their recent history as they score more than three goals in a game for the first time under Paul Lambert. 

The win built crucial breathing space above the relegation zone with three to play, but Villa should never have been allowed to be there in the first place but for boardroom stasis refusing to act on Lambert's awful tenure.

If Villa's victory at Stoke was their biggest in decades, the game against Sunderland was the biggest pressure release valve in B6 seen for many a year. Villa's win lifted them to 16th in the table five points clear of the relegation places with three games left to play. As a result the final relegation place was between Wigan, Newcastle, Sunderland and Villa.

Villa's crucial run of games against fellow strugglers - playing six of their last eight against such opposition - proves critical as Paul Lambert's side make it five wins across the period to all but guarantee Premier League safety with two games to play.

Paul Lambert's Villa record their second successive win for only the second time this season. 

Villa's tenth win of the season, with five having come in the last eight matches, almost guaranteed Premier League football at Villa Park for 2013-14 just weeks after that prospect looked a complete impossibility. 

Although Christian Benteke's goals had got Villa into a position to have a realistic chance of safety, it was the much maligned Gabriel Agbonlahor who had been equally crucial in recent matches and fittingly it was his brace that effectively saved Villa. 

Ashley Westwood contributes his 6th assist in a Villa shirt on his 29 appearances (27 Starts) to make it W10 D7 L12, 6 Assists and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

Winger Brett Holman has to wait another month for an appearance - his last of 29 - for Villa aged 29 before moving on to Al-Nasr on a free transfer in July 2013. Holman had started the campaign with promise but disappeared from the starting line up at the turn of the year and was rarely seen thereafter. Holman had now made just 5 substitute appearances in the last four months under Lambert and had made just one start in a Villa shirt in 2013 having done so 16 times in the first 4 months of the season. Holman's 2012 record was 22 Appearances, 16 Starts, W6 D6 L10, 2 Goals, 4 Assists and 1 Booking. Holman's 2013 record by contrast was 7 Appearances, 1 Start, W7 D10 L12, 0 Goals, 0 Assists and 0 Bookings. Like many things under Paul Lambert it was unfathomable.

Fabian Delph collects his 20th booking in a Villa shirt on his 64th appearance (48 Starts) at a rate of a card every 3.20 games he has played and makes it W24 D17 L23, 2 Goals and 20 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

Villa lose their 16th game of the Premier League season under Paul Lambert.

Thanks to results elsewhere, Villa remain a Premier League side for another season, something that had seemed an impossibility two months earlier when they sat 18th with fourteen defeats in 28 games. 

Defender Eric Lichaj makes his 42nd and final appearance for Villa (30 Starts) aged 24 before moving on to Nottingham Forest on a free transfer in July 2013. Lichaj would leave with a record of W15 D13 L14, 1 Goals, 4 Assists and 10 Bookings.

Villa end the season safe from relegation as ‘Petrov day’ celebrates the career and retirement of Villa great Stiliyan Petrov.

Villa end this most difficult of campaigns with a draw at relegated Wigan to leave them with a stack of unwanted records and with a host of players either exiled or underperforming by this most bewildering of regimes. 

It would be difficult to imagine that a season without relegation could have been much worse. 

Off the pitch there was chaos and recrimination with the infamous Bomb Squad of first team players not to be considered for duty robbing Villa of crucial experience, whilst players and systems were constantly changed leaving an incoherent manager presiding over an incoherent style of play. 

Record defeats, lower league humiliation, sub par players and performances, the banishment of effective first teamers and a malevolent discontent meant that in normal circumstances Paul Lambert would have been another one term manager consigned to the dustbin of failure. 

These weren’t normal times however as a distracted and disconnected Chairman seemed to accept and encourage this most bewildering of management regimes. 

In truth Villa’s form throughout the season meant they should have been relegated. Villa though avoid relegation under Paul Lambert at the last thanks to the goals of Christian Benteke and latterly Gabriel Agbonlahor without which a first relegation since 1986 was inevitable. 

Perhaps that end to the season bred over confidence, if true it’s difficult to understand the chutzpah of forgetting the other 40 odd games of mostly ineptitude. 

Whatever it was, this most undeserving of managers got an apparently emboldened endorsement for a second season. 

Consider the statistics: 

Paul Lambert has now led Villa to 16 defeats in 38 games in the 2012-13 season. 

Much maligned Alex McLeish delivered 14 defeats across the entire 2011-12 season. 

Lambert had hit that total in just 28 games. 

Villa have conceded 3 or more goals on 9 occasions across 38 Premier League under Paul Lambert.

McLeish had suffered four such games over the 38 game 2011-23 season. 

In his first season as manager of the club, Paul Lambert delivered the biggest defeat in Villa’s history, 0-8 to Chelsea.

In his first season as manager of the club, Paul Lambert set the record for the most goals conceded in successive games in Premier League history. 

Villa secured 5 wins in 25 League games under Paul Lambert. The five wins in the final ten games that effectively saved Villa came against Reading (19th, relegated), Queens Park Rangers (20th, relegated), Stoke City (13th, one point above Villa), Sunderland (17th) and Norwich. 

McLeish had delivered that many by New Years Eve 2011. 

Villa were never out of the bottom five under Paul Lambert in 2012-13, spending most of the season in 17th and 18th until the six-pointers against relegation rivals at the end of the season lifted them to a barely believable 15th placed finish.

McLeish’s Villa never dropped lower than 15th until the final two games of the season when they fell to 16th after finishing without a win in ten. 

Yet Lambert was not only still feted by a section of the support to the same degree as McLeish was hated, he was confirmed as manager of the club for 2013-14 even before the final placings had been realised. 

Darren Bent scores his 25th goal in a Villa shirt on his 63rd appearance (51 Starts) and had now been substitute in 11 of his last 17 games, starting just three League games, having only been a sub once in his first 46. Bent's record now stood at W24 D18 L21, 25 Goals, 3 Assists and 2 Bookings having scored 6 times in 23 games under Lambert - with 3 of those goals coming against lower league cup opposition - compared to 19 in 40 under his predecessors (1 Cup Goal against Premier League opposition). This would prove to be Bent’s last game in a Villa shirt for 43 games as Lambert would exclude the player from selection for the entirety of the 2013-14 season for no apparent reason.

Forward Simon Dawkins makes his 4th and final appearance for Villa (0 Starts) aged 25 before returning to Tottenham Hotspur at the end of his loan spell. Dawkins, never looking a Premier League player during his 5 months with Villa, left with a record of W1 D1 L1, 0 Goal, 0 Assists and 0 Bookings from his 71 minutes on the field for Villa.

Brad Guzan concedes his 100th goal in a Villa shirt on his 67th appearance (65 Starts) to make it W26 D15 L26, 100 Goals Conceded, 14 Clean Sheets, 1.68 Goals per League Game and 4 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

Brad Guzan keeps his first clean sheet in a Villa shirt since December 2012 - 27 appearances previously - to make it W28 D15 L29, 106 Goals Conceded, 15 Clean Sheets, 1.63 Goals per League Game and 5 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

Villa suffer a chastening and worrying defeat as they are hammered at home by Spurs in the League Cup to leave them with four defeats in seven games in all competitions under Paul Lambert.

Yet it was the decision making of the notorious referee Jonathan Moss that grabbed the headlines. 

That aside there was much to concern about Villa's second half capitulation of Lambert's much changed side.

Joe Bennett suffers his 15th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 32nd appearance (28 Starts) to make it W10 D7 L15, 3 Assists, 5 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.

Callum Robinson makes his Villa debut after coming through the youth team to become the 863rd player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.

Villa bounce back from their Tottenham hammering to secure a win as thrilling as it was unexpected to give rise to an iconic image of celebrating in front of the Holte.

Paul Lambert’s Villa arguably deliver their third great result in 54 games under his stewardship with this backs to the wall victory against an expensively assembled outfit. 

The win showed a hitherto absent steel in Lambert's side, doubly so given the team was troubled with injuries to key players. 

As a result the game proved a source of hope that it could kickstart form for Villa in a way their previous victories (over Liverpool in December 2012 and Arsenal on the opening day of this season) had not. 

Villa climb to 9th in the Premier League table after six games as they had now won three and lost three of their opening matches.

Centre forward Grant Holt, 32, makes his Villa debut from the subs bench having joined on loan from Wigan Athletic unfit and overweight earlier this month to become the 865th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football. Pretty much to a man, Lambert's signings were odd, this one though was nonsensical as a player unable to get a squad place at Wigan was brought in and played ahead of far more qualified squad members under Lambert.

Left back Antonio Luna makes his 18th and final appearance for Villa aged 22 just 5 months after his debut. Luna had been a first team regular during his first months with the club before appearing to disappear from first team consideration - just another sign of the madness that had infected the club under Paul Lambert. Luna moved on to SD Eibar on a free transfer in July 2015 having left a record of W5 D4 L9, 1 Goal and 3 Bookings.
