The sort of game we need to be winning if we are going to be comfortably top of the bottom half instead of hopefully top of the bottom quarter!
-
Very, very minor grumble, but I'd like to see Hause on the bench instead of Taylor. Otherwise, onwards and upwards. UTV
-
I’d like to see Luis starting ahead of Hourihane
-
I’d like to see Luis starting ahead of Hourihane
And me.
-
Come on you Villa boys!
7am kick-off here in Vancouver.
-
Agree re Louis but hard to drop CH after scoring and winning the penalty last time out.
-
An interesting stat from the BBC:
Villa have conceded a league-high six goals after the 75th minute of games and dropped eight points from winning positions.
So we know what we need to work on.
-
Just seen 2 people walking towards the ground carrying drums.
Thankfully they’ve gone to a nearby wedding venue!
-
Stream....check
Beer in fridge....check
Empty house....check
Three points.... please.
UTV
-
Win please Villa.
-
Gareth Southgate is here again.
-
Definitely have to win this. Won't be easy, but Everton winning and looking very good earlier should remind us of how tough this league is. Out of home games against Bournemouth, West Ham, Burnley and Brighton, winning none of them would be very poor showing indeed.
-
Gareth Southgate is here again.
Shit! Jack is normally crap every time Southgate turns up at Villa Park.
-
Has Targett managed a full game yet?
-
I hope Taylor doens't have to come on after his shit-show cameo against Burnley.
-
Gareth Southgate is here again.
Alma Matters
-
Has Targett managed a full game yet?
Last game vs Norwich, Brighton away in the cup
-
I am having difficulty today. Would any of you wonderful people like to pm me?

As expected unchanged
Are Elmo and Jota injured? Hause, Chester, Kodjia, Nyland, Kalinic other senior players not involved.
-
it seems defending will be a thing of the past for this game
-
wes probably should have passed back to conor there .. half chance
-
Spurs determined to relegate us, losing Watford now.
-
Bit more pressure and urgency please, Villa.
-
Chance for Brighton there, thankfully skied over
-
Good tracking back, Conor.
-

Ta!

I think Jota has had an operation on his pubis
-
Maybe someone will inform the team that the game has begun?
-
Harsh booking. Ref looks like a rabbit in the headlights.
-
0-1.
-
ffs it wasnt a foul from that free kick
-
Shocking defending.
-
Absolutely shit start. Fuck sake
-
Poor goal to concede. Wasn't even a free kick in the first place, arguably.
-
Here we go.
-
Terrible. BHA miles ahead of us thus far.
-
How does refereeing continually get worse with all the resources available to this idiots.
-
BHA miles better than us so far, but no way was that a foul by Conor!
-
Poor defending. It was too easy for Brighton to score.
-
Oooh close from Conor
-
Bugger. Lose this and will never hear end of it.
-
Bit better now. McGinn all over the place
-
BHA miles better than us so far, but no way was that a foul by Conor!
It wasn't. It was definitely a foul from Targett though in a much more dangerous area, so not sure we can moan too much about it. Should have just defended it better.
We have been very poor so far.
-
Need Wesley to get more involved.
-
Mings was woeful there
-
Bollocks, just nipped out to make a pot of coffee and this happens.
-
Fucking hell Villa. Wake the fuck up. Maupay going close
-
Targett has been very poor so far.
Sort yourselves out Villa.
-
We look a mess in midfield. In fact we look like we’ve all just met in the car park for quick game.
-
Bollocks, just nipped out to make a pot of coffee and this happens.
All your fault!!!!!
-
Good break from Jack and Anwar then.... unlucky
-
Great save, Heaton. Big big save.
-
I think it's clear to see that we should have signed Maupay, also. Good player. Busy, dangerous.
-
Bha are actually good. Watched them a few times, and they impressed me.
We are not in balance in midfield. Plenty of talent, but Nakamba not enough
-
This is just shit. They should be 2-0 up. Maupay playing just behind Connolly is causing us all kinds of problems
-
I think it's clear to see that we should have signed Maupay, also. Good player. Busy, dangerous.
I was just about to say the same thing.
-
Without getting at him, target seems the weak link
-
I think it's clear to see that we should have signed Maupay, also. Good player. Busy, dangerous.
I was just about to say the same thing.
Think we tried our best. Money issue i guess
-
Red for their bloke. Mooy?
-
Dean needs to change it NOW - will he wait too long again?
-
We're chasing shadows here.
-
Mooy sent off, Brighton down to 10.
Way it's gone this season Brighton will probably go 2 up before half time.
-
Fuck fuck fuck... red card
-
Well that's us fucked then!
-
Well we are fucked now. Playing against 10 men
-
Oh no
-
Will we be able to beat ten men though?
-
0 points then.
-
Red card for Brighton. Now we've really had it.
-
I have tempered any optimism regarding the red card.
-
Down to 10 men will it be 3rd time lucky?
-
Goal down, playing against 10 men. Bollocks! :(
-
Red for their bloke. Mooy?
Second yellow card and he deserved it. I quite rate Mooy so I am glad he is off.
-
Brighton are really pressing us high up.
-
Fuck McGinn shot off Wes’ arse.
-
After the last couple of times we have failed to beat ten men I hope we have been practising playing eleven versus ten in training.
-
1-1. Hourihane.
-
I think it's clear to see that we should have signed Maupay, also. Good player. Busy, dangerous.
I was just about to say the same thing.

I thought it may have been an age resale thing but he's only 23 too
-
YESSSSSSS 1-1
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Get in!
-
VAR check disallows it
-
VAR check. FFS, cancelled.
-
Yesss
-
That Scorchiooo thing for goals we score is bad luck I think PWS!
-
For the love.
-
Fuck off VAR!
-
That Scorchiooo thing for goals we score is bad luck I think PWS!
Was it bad luck 5 times last week? :P
-
What a load of absolute bollocks.
-
This league has gone to absolute shit.
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My favourite goal celebration on the site!
-
What was it ruled out for?
-
That Scorchiooo thing for goals we score is bad luck I think PWS!
Was it bad luck 5 times last week? :P
VP games!
-
Why was it disallowed?
-
Fucking fuck
-
VAR and the ref trying to outdo each other today - What an utter shit show football has become! Utter Bollocks.
-
What the fuck was that disallowed for?
-
Why was it disallowed?
-
Why was it disallowed?
Being Villa
-
Fuck VAR. Every fucking week.
-
If they are going to stop goals for that then there really is no point any more.
-
Why was it disallowed?
Wesley foul on keeper in build up apparently
-
Foul on the keeper in the build up.
-
Martin fucking Atkinson. Wanker!
-
Wesley supposedly bullied the keeper.
-
He did have an arm out that made contact with the keeper but that was a soft decision for me. SKY reckon Dean Smith on the touchline mouthed "VAR is an embarrassment".
-
Disallowed because we had more players on the pitch than Brighton.
-
There is no way on God's earth that challenge was a foul by Wesley, we're being robbed by VAR on a weekly basis.
-
O.k we'll try again....
Sch....
-
This is absolute fucking bullshit. Wes barely touched the keeper. That’s a goal all day long
-
Either a foul on the keeper or handball by Wesley.
It is the most ridiculous decision.ever.
-
YESSSSSSSSSSS
-
Grealish perhaps.
-
Super Jack!!!!!!!!!!!
-
1-1. Jack.
-
Yes!
-
I thought the most ridiculous REF decision was last time - this time - fuck off....WHAT THE FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKK
At least this was a goal
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
YES!!! JACK!!!
-
Should count.
-
Let's see what they can find to disallow that fucker for the ******
-
Yesssss
-
Go on Jack!!
-
Take that you VAR wankers!
-
Try and take that one off the scoreboard ya fucking assholes.
-
The sounds of FUCK VAR FUCK VAR FUCK VAR have never been more justified...... I AM FUMING
-
Suuuupppperrrrrr Jaaaaaccckkk!
-
Wesley is some else if he's not blocking McGinns goal bound effort he's now fucking up in his challenging so goal is disallowed.
Had an absolute horrendous half I've been watching his movement
Not even making the runs when the ball is in the area
Never finds him or he never near it
His attempt was pathetic as usual in jumping to challenge
Unfortunate any touch on a GK will be given as foul.
Grealishhhhh!!!
Lovely !!!
Give it a fucking rest.
-
So we're only playing 12 men now, 10 from Brighton, the ref and the VAR twat.
-
Yes get in and now win the game in the second half.
-
Jack has been outstanding
-

Absolutely. Wesley should get in touch with the police about your stalking.

He certainly has. He's been everywhere.

Yawn yawn yawn. When are you going to call him hopalong again?
-
Let’s be honest we were second best until the sending off.
-
The quality of officiating at this level is cynically poor. It’s almost like they wind us up to make sure we watch the post-match shows.
-
VAR is crap not only is it taking away the emotion of the game, it's giving crap decisions. Well done Jack.
-
We really should win this now, "two" goals in five minutes since the red.
One game where a sending off is going to be the turning point for us as yes we were very much second best before and lucky not to be 2 down.
-
Now let’s win against 10 - they look she’ll shocked. Hook Wesley on 70 if he doesn’t score and get trez on
-
Poor old Wesley must be suffering from Villa's past record. Nobody in football has really forgiven Peter McParland for his challenge on Ray Wood in the 1957 FA Cup Final.
-
VAR is crap not only is it taking away the emotion of the game, it's giving crap decisions. Well done Jack.
The problem is numpties like Atkinson evaluate controversies in slow motion.. and in slow motion it looked like Wesley swings a wild elbow into the keeper sparking a reaction and appeal.
It’s not a realistic way to assess what happen. Wesley was off his feet first and went straight up. Its a completely fair play.
-
Fuck VAR https://twitter.com/avfc_vilr/status/1185568844548624385
-
hate this VAR ruining the game
so I run round the room when Conor scores shouting yes yes yes and then disallowed
and then when Jack scores I dont cheer and just wait a few seconds first , shouting a feeble get in 10 seconds later
its ruining the celebrations

I can only assume he’s wesleys son from when he was 14 and hasn’t had enough attention.
-
VAR is fucking shit. My natural reaction when we score now is not to celebrate, but to quickly rack my brain looking for any tiny reason why it might be overturned.
As for the game itself, we were very poor up until the sending off. Brighton found space so easily between our midfield and defence. Keeping hold of the ball almost at will. We've done well since the sending off because we upped the tempo, which is the way to play with a numerical advantage.
We now need to ensure we don't let another opportunity against 10 men fall through our fingers.
-

Moreover, VAR isn’t going to overturn a referees judgement. Conor’s yellow that led to the goal was a perfectly fine tackle. However, VAR isn’t going to overrule the man in the middle. It’s ridiculous quote frankly. If you’re not going to try and get right, what exactly are you trying to do, ya know?
-
Var is crap - what part of clear and obvious error is to be used? We dont get advantage of it, and it is over interpreted against us (it was never a foul!!!)
-
Grealish goal, foot like a traction engine https://twitter.com/Zwodde__/status/1185569802519228418

There was barely an appeal from the Brighton players. They obviously didn't see an infringement.

It wouldn't surprise me. What is it they say on all those detective films - follow the money trail ;-)

I was exactly the same, it's quite sad really.
-
It really is fucked up, I don’t see how the egregious errors only are to be reversed if they review every goal to look to see if there is any reason whatsoever to reverse the decision.
-
I respect your opinion Vill I An, but I feel like Wesley has shown some really impressive signs here and there. He's not been an embarrassment by any stretch, for me. Lots of time for him to come good.
How do we go about getting VAR scrapped then?

Lovely !!!
Give it a fucking rest.
Ok I will
We can all see for ourselves
But I hear you .
No more gripes
And in respect to him he was well involved for the equaliser in showing for it and laying off
So well done
But have to say Jack Grealish has been unbelievable today.
Brighton can't live with him !!
Fully deserves the goal.
He picked it up in his own half played it off to Wes and then got into penalty area qnd 6 yard box and lovely slide slow mo for ball to go in
As I say we'll go on and hammer them now !
And ok PWS I'll stop the Wesley moaning I just hoped for more !
Maybe 2nd half !
Up the villa !
P... ...
-
Fuck VAR https://twitter.com/avfc_vilr/status/1185568844548624385
Been listening to this non stop in half time!
-
Was it a foul or not though - genuine question.
-
Last 10 mins of that half
(https://media.giphy.com/media/joV1k1sNOT5xC/giphy.gif)
-
Brighton taken off young Connolly, put on Solly March so extra midfielder.
-
Feels like a McGinn winner game.
-
Win the game Villa.
-
I went for a shower with a goal cancelled, I come back and it's 1-1. Get in!
-
You can all thank me for Jack playing well the last 2 games, I swapped him out of my FL team for SJM before the Norwich game. So it's also my fault SJM has stopped scoring for us.
-
Was it a foul or not though - genuine question.
Even slowed down it’s not obvious, the biggest problem is Wesleys arm is high
-
VAR is fucking shit. My natural reaction when we score now is not to celebrate, but to quickly rack my brain looking for any tiny reason why it might be overturned.
I did exactly that, scrutinized the replay very closely and satisfied myself there was no way they could find a way to disallow it, paying special attention to Wesley's challenge on the keepr - and yet they still managed it somehow. Unbelievable.

How about everyone moaning about VAR being boring ! Not getting on their cases!!
Rather than accepting decisions! Same old moans !
The double standard from some of youse is shocking !
You’re obviously a passionate fan.
But slagging a player and slagging VAR are totally different things.
-
Was it a foul or not though - genuine question.
No - if that is an objective foul - no corner is ever given
-

I respect this place and we all want the win I wont mention the big W again !
I fully support him scoring the inevitable penalty!
As can see getting a pk !
Thank you up the villa !
David Coote the ref is poor ! Brighton be lucky to survive with out another sending off
The problem is that I cant mute your posts...

Var did overrule the ref when the goal was disallowed.
-

Two questions Q1) What is your record for number of showers in one day? Q2) Can you please beat that record today, starting now?
-
Brighton still looking dangerous here.
-
Fuck me on the break they are still dangerous. Maupay close
-
Montoya booked. He was so impressed with SJM's Scotland performance he couldn't wait till full time before trying to swap shirts with him.
-
Targett has really been poor this game.
-
If we do get a pen mate, you can be my Sports Almanak - Back to the Future style!
Seeing El Ghazi should have scored. If we keep creating chances, as obvious at it sounds, I'm sure we'll do well today! I'm desperate to win but not jinx it!
-
Targett has really been poor this game.
Almost as poor as El Ghazi.
-
We really need to win this, only out of bottom 3 on GD atm.
As are Man. United as it happens, 16th on the live table.
-
we may struggle to break these down. Wesley isn't looking good today.
-
Maupay looks better every time I see him. Cracking little player.
-
Need to win.
-
They are now parking the bus and hoping to pick us off on the break. This is going to be hard to break them down.
-
I’d look to switch Marvelous for Luiz if nothing changes in the next 5
-
we may struggle to break these down. Wesley isn't looking good today.
Surprised Kodjia isn't on the bench, would be good to introduce his unpredictability.
Guess Davis and Trez will be on soon, we can't afford to mess up another 3 points against 10 men.
-
Mings is going to have to go off
-
El Ghazi needs to come off - he's shite today.
-
Targett has had a mare today
-
Targett has really been poor this game.
Almost as poor as El Ghazi.
Agreed!
-
They are now parking the bus and hoping to pick us off on the break. This is going to be hard to break them down.
We need some corners and all that, last one we had was 40th minute which not for the first time v 10 men is very poor. We seem to go to pot mentally in these situations and forgot doing the stuff we do 11 v 11.
Still plenty of time to win this at least.
-
Get Douglas on
-
Trez coming on for Conor
-
El Ghazi should have come off
-
Our son is on
-
Get Douglas on.
-
El Ghazi should have come off
68 min he will go for Douglas
-
We play the ball around well but we don't seem to find the extra gear needed in the final third.
-
It's really like night and day watching how Brighton are managing the game with 10 men and our effort when Trez got sent off at Palace.
Brighton still moving forward when they can.
-
how the fuck has Montoya not been sent off?
-
I wish Wesley would try and get across his man at the near post.
-
Probing, we need second goal, secure all 3 points.
-
We are a shambles at the back
-
If that Montoya scores I might put my foot through the telly.
Come on Villa. For fucks sake.
-
Maupay looks better every time I see him. Cracking little player.
I was disappointed we didn't sign him in the summer when there were rumours we would.
-
We'll do these. Won't be pretty, but I have confidence today.
-
Struggling against 10 men again. What the fuck is it with us?
-
What have we done to be on the receiving end of the refs?????
-
10 men again.
Score another you absolute soapy tit wanks!
-
Fucking hell thats a clear penalty on McGinn
-
How can VAR dismiss that foul on McGinn in the penalty area? Garbage
-
Struggling against 10 men again. What the fuck is it with us?
WE SHOULD THE FUCK HAVE HAD A PENALTY
-
FFS!
-
Fecking El Ghazi.
And then VAR dismisses a pen against McGinn. Ridiculous.
-
I have seen it twice in slow motion and that was a nailed on penalty for me.
-
How the HELL did they disallow the goal and not give that penalty!
-
VAR is not suitably fit for purpose.
-
Results elsewhere are pretty bad, expected Norwich, Newcastle and Watford all to lose today but simply dosen't seem that sort of season.
We must get a win given our next three games.
-
Why can’t we break down 10 men FFS
-
I love VAR in other leagues! it actually works - but in the PREM it is absolutely bullshit
-
Chelsea beating Newcastle at least.
-
Come on Villa
-
This will be a fucking disaster if for the third time this season we cannot beat a side with 10 men.
-
Our almost total inability to win matches that we should be winning is very worrying.
-
Get Keinan on.
-
Brighton still look useful. They've got better ideas going forward than us.
-
A cramp in the 70th?!?!
-
Get Keinan on.
Not sure really, we'd just be pumping long balls to him and that's what Duffy, Dunk and Burn will want.
This is situation where we're really need a bit of unpredictability from a Jota or Kodjia to stretch a team. Just shows our lack of options when we get an injury.
-
their keeper hasnt had a shot to save second haf
-
Finally our first corner in the second half and first for 35 minutes.
-
Doug and Keinan coming on. Wes and AEG off
-
A cramp in the 70th?!?!
Yes, muscles don't go by time.
-
their keeper hasnt had a shot to save second haf
He saved from Hotlips before AEG missed.
-
20 minutes too late for El Ghazi.
-
Not good enough.
-
We are very poor when we get into the final third of the pitch. Especially when we have the likes of Grealish and SJM who should be doing more damage to the opposition.
-
75 minutes too late for El Ghazi.
FTFY
-
Bringing on a striker in this situation who last scored in 2017 (?) dosen't fill me with confidence, can't understand Kodj not making the bench despite seemingly being in full training for two weeks.
-
With an extra man at this stage in the game, we should have them on the ropes deep in their own half. They don't even look like they have a man less?!
-
Kodjia obviously being rested for Citeh. Said no one ever.
-
VAR check on penalty.
Edit: Not given of course.
-
We are very poor when we get into the final third of the pitch. Especially when we have the likes of Grealish and SJM who should be doing more damage to the opposition.
I can't understand taking Conor off. With their massive defence, at least have a threat from outside the area.
-
This is absolute bobbins.
-
VAR really has reached its nadir today. Another ridiculous disallowed goal at Leicester.
-
We’re not going to score again are we?
-
VAR is fucking shit. My natural reaction when we score now is not to celebrate, but to quickly rack my brain looking for any tiny reason why it might be overturned.
I did exactly that, scrutinized the replay very closely and satisfied myself there was no way they could find a way to disallow it, paying special attention to Wesley's challenge on the keepr - and yet they still managed it somehow. Unbelievable.
It's being implemented terribly given clear penalties aren't being given.
But giving the Liverpool one,
-
Speaking of VAR wait until you see the penalty Watford were denied. As stonewall as they come

I hate football

Ultimately the ref gave that so they're just looking out for their mates.
Refs not even going to look at the pitchside screen is ridiculous aswell for these 50/50 decisions.
-
McGinn seems to look knackered every second half. Today is no exception.
-

MCginn didn't even go to VAR - why???

McGinn isn’t allowed to.
-
It's been disappointing but we've had about 20 shots, missed a sitter, had a goal disallowed, been denied a penalty and they should be down to 9. It's not like we've done fuck all.

It did. Apparently.
-
Villa and Brighton have each had nineteen attempts on goal so far today.
-
They all go to VAR, for some reason VAR doesn't seem to want to give blatant penalties.
-
this is bad though.
-
Dangerous free kick for us. No Conor to take it
-
For fucks sake Villa come on.
-
We get a FK on the box - and no Howrahan
-

Targett taking that was stupud, Luiz already scored two long rangers this season.
-
Wolves are drawing. Which obviously means they will score a winner in the 100th minute.
-

They simply don’t want to hurt the ref’s feelings. Something that doesn’t apply in cricket.
-
Are you fucking kidding. Matt Targett took that
-
Are you fucking kidding. Matt Targett took that
why tf..?!
-
Spurs finally score v Watford.
-
What a crap free kick from Targett.
-
Come back Taylor, all is forgiven.
-
Shit result - but Nakamba doesn't do any mistakes does he? (hope he doesn't)
-
Not scoring here I don’t think.
-
Don't understand the Conor sub, unless he was crocked. Far worse performers today than him, and could have done with his delivery/FKs at this stage of the game.
-
FFS Jack do fucking better
-
Spurs finally score v Watford.
Computer said no (on the big screen)
Ref said yes
-
Spurs have just been given a VAR goal despite a handball from Alli.
-
I just feel a kick in the bollocks any minute now
-
I'm crying for Douglas not scoring that.....
People complaining about Wesley - has Davies done anything better?
-
Spurs finally score v Watford.
Computer said no (on the big screen)
Ref said yes
Dele Alli did a handball before tapping in apparently.
Worst day yet for VAR this season.
-
This is awful
-
Need to find a way to have Luis, Nakamba, and Hourihane play together. Tired of AEG and Trezeguet doing very little on a regular basis.
-
4 minutes added on.
-

VAR said no goal on screen and the ref gave it??
-
Obviously we are struggling in the prem. It's not good but take the draw.
-
It would appear so yes.
-
This just isn’t good enough at all.
-

Can’t have McGinn on the wing.
-
Today I am frustrated by both VAR and VILLA.
-
Extra time being played at Cowdenbeath

I hear you. Not sure what the answer is, but I just cannot watch those two much longer.
-
At best we get 1 point - against odds of refs. But our son has actually been good - should start ahead of EAG
-
94th minute corner....Davis with a header.
-
Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
-
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Targett can you believe.
-
Disbelief.
-
Yeeeeeeeeesssssssss!!!!!
-
Fuck me! Get in Villa!!!
-
Not good enough from Targett or Villa today etc etc
-
Told you Target was playing well today!!
-
Yesssss
-
Get In. What a great day
-
Waits for VAR check....
-
I'VE JUST WEE'D MYSELF!!!💖💖💖💖
-
Yes! Well done, Dumbo!
-
Take that VAR you C**T
-
Yes brilliant what a finish.
-
Sounds like we made hard work of it but as long as we get to 40 points I’ll take it.
-
Got there in the end, patience paid of and we got the reward in the end, well done the Villa
-

Sir you are an asshole! the crappiest player of the night scores in the 94th.....YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
-
We didn't play that well but we should have had a penalty and on balance a one goal win was fair. And of course all of us on here knew Matt Targett was a legend in the making ;)
-
I'll take that but fuck me we have some issues.
-
Exhausting and wonderful
-
I'll take that but fuck me we have some issues.
We also have 3 points.
-
Anyone want to bet that our VAR issues today get no mention on MOTD by Tottenham's will be discussed at length?
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Too late today ;)
