WBA v Aston Villa Post Match Thread (FUCK THE ALBION)

[Steve67]

Yup!

They were so brave, worked so hard, gave it their all. West Brom fans should be rightly proud of their season mixing it with the big boys. 

Its not as if prior to this season they'd spent years in the Premier league. Or that they were looking likely candidates for promotion before sacking their coach and replacing him with a p.e teacher.

They're no different to Blues, sleeping giants if they win, poor brave little triers when they lose. Bless em.

The stats suggest we did dominate, there was a 10 minute spelling the second half when they were on top but that was it.

[PeterWithe]

I think we did very well to hold the Pride of the Midlands to just a single goal defeat.

I did chuckle a little bit

This is the thing that I've found confusing ever since it looked like we would meet them in the play off semi-final. WBA really did spin it as the minnows v the millionaires, a real football team v plastic poseurs, proper fans v people who pop in when there is a chance of success. The reality over two games was that it was Villa who tried to play, Villa who refused to be intimidated (fans,players and club) and, despite all the cheating allegations from WBA since, Villa who came closest to the principles of football. I actually don't mind the Albion but this past week or so they've tarnished their self-promoted reputation as somehow being something special.

Why are we always being surprised when that lot behave like they always have? They're Small Heath with better PR.

funny!

The Leeds fan at work was very quiet today. Didn’t even realise he was there until around 3pm. I went over for a pisstake. He looked so devastated, I just did a bit of token one and left him
Alone. Plus we have yet to win the playoff- so wary of sowing what I may reap! Fuckin glad they lost though. Their fans at Wembley in 97 were absolute ******, a narrow second
To Chelsea in 2000

One said to me today that if it had been in Europe we would have been knocked out.

The Bitters in Europe!! What an imagination.

Didn't they win the UEFA Cup by beating Valencia in the final in 1978/1979?

My mistake. Apparently that was just a third round tie and they got knocked out in the next round.

There can't be anyone with worse PR than Small Heath.

This cracks me up every time I watch it https://twitter.com/rhiannontrxvers/status/1128432566313340928

Haha! Yeah that was class, clocked it live.

The footage of Steer staring out Holgate as they walk to the goalmouth is another beauty.

Yep - unnerved him before he even got to the area.

When I first saw it on the night I thought he was looking behind Holgate but then saw Holgate reaction and Sussed what Jed was doing......as my missus said its tantamount to bullying, arh bless
