Well today the feeling of sick in the pit of my stomach has returned after a defeat. It was that sort of game.The previous defeats we've had I've just shrugged off as for example Everton are just a better team than we are so you just accept those defeats in a 38 game season, I don't see the point in getting pissed off at those sort of games anymore. QPR we were just inept for the most part.This one though was different. The way we lost, the team we lost to (who were total shite), the decisions, the overall malaise we continue to be in season in season out.What other defeats have made you close to being physically sick afterwards?2010 cup final was an obvious one. Another one that sticks in my mind was ironically against Spurs, another 2-1 home defeat in March 2009, I knew straight after that game we wouldn't be finishing top 4 that season. Different times though and what I'd give for that now.
Today wasn't gut-wrenching. Today was as predictable as tomorrow being Monday. I'm sorry to piss on the thread, because I've got plenty of occasions when the Villa have inflicted that on me, but Villa 2014? Sorry, giving away two goals in the last ten minutes against a poor Spurs side is about par for the course.

Smashing stuff.
That bastard streak of piss scuffing one late for the rags in the League Cup when Houllier was manager.If he'd made clean contact it would have ended up at Cambabest over the road, the fuckers hadn't laid a glove on us all night and we should have smashed them, instead they spunk their way through to win it.

Credit where its deserved even for the scumF in lucky against Arsenal though!
