An unbiased match report... http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/match-reports/updated-aston-villa-2-west-8794787
Yeah but you're not allowed to sat thatYou have to read anti villa bias into everything. As shearer said at half time. West brom weren't great but they were competent and miles better than us Then we blew them away in the second half. But it is true to say they missed two absolute sitters.

Hmm.On first viewing it looks nothing, but watch his right foot scrape down Bacuna's knee when you see it from behind.The snidely twat.There's no way that was a booking. He'd be doing well to scrape his foot down a players leg who's sliding in at that speed

It was a stamp, exactly the type of motion you'd do if you wanted to go in two footed. Fully justified card.

If it was a proper stamp it would've been a straight red. As it was a half hearted stamp he got a yellow. Reading the Albion forum he does it all the time and regularly gets yellow cards for it. Knowing this, and the fact he was already on a yellow, he deserved sending off for sheer stupidity alone.

I thought they were clearly the better side in the first 20 or so minutes, only for us to get a foothold as the half went on without playing too well. Even though they started brightly, they only created one clear cut chance. As for Shearer, well as we saw in the build up to the Newcastle game, the Geordie opinions on Villa are to be filed alongside those coming out of Small Heath and Sandwell.

He got booked on Tuesday night and continued fouling afterwards so he was lucky not to be suspended anyway.
I actually think Bacuna was at fault and feigned injury as he might have felt he was also. His right leg comes in high and hits the player.
