Just over 21,000 saw Villa earn their place in the 3rd round of the Carling Cup the hard way thanks to a late goal each from Eric Lichaj (80′) and Nathan Delfouneso (88′) from the bench.
It's a game I've yet to see anything from first hand, but it sounds like we dominated the game pretty much in the manner you'd expect over a struggling League Two side, but were frustrated by some fine goalkeeping from 20 year old loanee, David Cornell.

Alex McLeish has rung the changes for this Carling Cup clash, but retained a strong side blending youth and experience.
