So we lost to a side who lose 5-0 in the final. Credit to both sides for getting there but how shit does that make us. I think we know the answer to that one I'm afraid.

It makes us better than Manchester City.
I like you style. I feel better already!

I hope their fans enjoyed their day out. I hope the chap behind the microphone at Valley Parade hated every minute of it.

Europa league will be an ordeal for them

They'll do well in it I reckon given how they play (even Stoke reached the knock out stages) but yeah Thursday-Sunday is tough even for established prem teams.

I hope his car broke down and he's still waiting for the RAC to turn up. Not that I'm bitter of course.

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.

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.

Can't argue with that. It was like one of the games we had as kids in the playground where no one wants to be a midfielder never mind a defender. I'm just amazed Guzan wasn't told to be a rushing goalie.

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.

Fair play to Swansea, that's how it's done.

And he didn't mark properly for the 3rd goal.

Whenever I feel vaguely optimistic about staying up I think of that game at Bradford and know we are doomed.
