The1972–73 English football season was Aston Villa's 73rd season in theFootball League, this season playing in theFootball League Second Division. Under managerVic Crowe^[1] Aston Villa won promotion in theprevious season as champions with a record 70 points, and thus ended their two-year spell in theThird Division. By the end of the decade they would be firmly re-established as a First Division club.

The1972 FA Charity Shield was contested betweenManchester City andAston Villa with City winning 1–0,^[2] following a penalty from strikerFrancis Lee. Normally, the Charity Shield would have been contested by the First Division champions and FA Cup holders, who wereDerby County andLeeds United respectively, but both declined the chance to play in the Charity Shield. Instead, Manchester City, who had finished in fourth place in the First Division; and Aston Villa, who finished as Third Division champions accepted the invitation to play. The match was played atVilla Park.

There were debut appearances forJohn Gidman (197),John Robson (144)Alun Evans (60),Keith Leonard (38), andBobby McDonald (39).^[3]
