An extremely rare goal from Charlie Aitken, what a run.
A sublime piece of ball control by Brian Little on, around, 3:20

I enjoyed that.  Villa conceding on the stroke of half-time though?  Some things never change....

I think I was at that game, going to have a mooch through my programs to check.
What a kit !!
Had to chuckle as we scored our first, you heard the Forest fans singing, AG,AGRO, AGGRO.
Always a difficult place to visit.

Always great to see a Charlie Aitken goal.Great ball in from Nicholls though.Plus another rarity leading to their goal-an Ian Ross defensive error.

Great find.

Anyone else notice that Charlie scored with his right foot?

That Charlie Aitken goal was quite something - you couldn't quite say that he ghosted into a goalscoring position!

Good post.

Ian Ross, not Neil Rioch, though.
