Europa league will be an ordeal for them
I hope their fans enjoyed their day out. I hope the chap behind the microphone at Valley Parade hated every minute of it.
Time hasn't dulled the anger or sense of shame.The more I think about it, the more I think every Villa player involved in that farce of a semi final should have been sacked. Every. Bastard. One. Not the most practical of solutions, but there it is.

Every. Bastard. One. Not the most practical of solutions, but there it is.Have to say, although I am more pro-Lambert than most, I thought our tactics after they scored in the second leg were the most laughably embarassing tactics I've seen a Villa manager employ in years.It was like watching a 14 year old playing Fifa 13.
Some are getting worked up over the prospect of Benteke leaving. I'm not. He was involved in that total shambles - in fact missed shed loads of chances that could have got us over the line comfortably. So he can fuck off. They all can. Decent player, wouldn't be at all surprised to eventually see him at Bayern Munich or similar. But I have no emotional attachment to the current crop of players. The horror of those two nights will stay with us for decades.
