Available Saturday afternoon.
-
Cuellar in for Collins, NRC in for Petrov
-
Delph and bradley on bench. No Bannan
-
Come on you Villa boys!
-
Villa: Friedel, Walker, Dunne, Cuellar, Clark, Downing, Young (c), Agbonlahor, Reo-Coker, Makoun, Bent.
-
Delph and bradley on bench. No Bannan
I know why, but I still don't see what he's done worse than Pires. Ah well.
-
Delph and bradley on bench. No Bannan
Is he injured?
Is Bradley still not 100% yet?
-
That team HAS to be good enough to see off this lot.......Ahem...
-
Good that Petrov is dropped, we will have so much more energy in midfield now.
I'm glad Cuellar has been given a chance, Collins probably needs a rest.
-
Good selection IMO. Reo Coker for me should have been on for Petrov early, he gives us a natural sitter and Makoun can be much more effective further forward due to his ability to pass the ball.
-
I find we do less desperation defending with Cuellar in the middle. Need NRC to shut down Adam.
Good morning all.
-

Agree with that ozz. Looks a well balanced team to me.
-
Still don't get Gabby on the left. Whats up with Bannan?
-
Good team. NRC and J2o to control the midfield and super attackers to run riot.
At a wedding now till 6 so relying on you lot to keep me in the match!
-
Gabby on the left wing, Ashley playing in the 'hole'... it doesn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope that Downing and Walker play as well down that right-hand side, could be profitable!
-
It doesn't, but Ash looked great in the hole for England, so there is a formula that should work there somewhere!
-
Petrov not even in the squad then.
-
I find we do less desperation defending with Cuellar in the middle.
Cuellar's at right back though, surely?
-
Good afternoon. I just found 4 cans of John Smith's in a shop.
-
Delph and bradley on bench. No Bannan
I know why, but I still don't see what he's done worse than Pires. Ah well.
He's not going to sign Pires for six months and not at least put him on the bench though. He's short-term. Bannan (hopefully) is the future.
We've got a big, competitive squad now with the new signings and the emergence of the youngsters meaning decent players are going to miss out on the matchday squad the whole time. Fonzy isn't involved at all either unfortunately.
-
I find we do less desperation defending with Cuellar in the middle.
Cuellar's at right back though, surely?
Yes with Bent in nets, Walker up front, NRC in central defence and Friedel in midfield.
-
In fairness Bannan and the Fonz would both benefit from 6 months loan in the championship again.
-
Just got in the ground. Rumour going round that kick offs delayed by 30 mins...
We're having to wait for the lineswoman to park her car...
-
Can't find the part in notifications to turn those fucking warning messages off.
-

-
Thanks Kielon
-
Just realised Petrov isnt even on the bench, bet he is shaking his head ha ha
-
i think we will regret not signing Adam come 4:45. If we could have got him for 5.5-6mil we should have got him.
-
Just seen Rooney's goal, bloody hell that was some goal.
-

at least im not the only one who has noticed that it doesn't work!!
-
i think we will regret not signing Adam come 4:45. If we could have got him for 5.5-6mil we should have got him.
If we can deploy Makoun and NRC to close down his space then not so... The only issue is that we'd probably need a third centre mid in there to do that efficiently.
-

Cuellar's at right back though, surely?
Yes with Bent in nets, Walker up front, NRC in central defence and Friedel in midfield.
Didn't know whether you were taking the pish or not but I could have sworn Collins was playing and Clarke wasn't when I read the team originally. Strange for Collins to lose out, maybe still recovering from trying to hold Wales' defence together against EIRE during the week.
-
In fairness Bannan and the Fonz would both benefit from 6 months loan in the championship again.
Not for me, they're better training and working under Houllier's methods. He's been rotating his midfield every game lately, they'll all get an opportunity.
-
Streams for game - Should be able to check out game at any of these:

Houllier just said I agree Denmark 1 villa 2 then laughed and said only joking

Oh oh.
Claret shorts again !!
-
Ah, Villastreams seems to be in Albanian or something. Cool!
-
Gabby on the wing again?

-
stream http://sportstream24.com/england_football/watch_online_8
is it right there is no sound? i have turned mute off.
-
fuck me Ciaran. Right from the kick off nearly letting Marlon in
-
Marlon nearly scores from a defensive error after 10 seconds. Potato field pitch.
-
Idiotic beginning to proceedings.
-
Can we get subtitles B.B.E?
-
Come on villa!!Show 'em how it's done!
-
Fucking hell Ciaran careful.
-
Can't find a decent stream anywhere - had to resort to Radio WM
Blackpool nearly in in first minute. Good job it was Harewood
-
Bent nearly scored there.
-
There seem to be stewards all over the pitch. Where are Blackpool?
-
West Brom have scored with a goal from Dorrans.
-
Come on Villa!
-
quality stream, i had to download some thing but took 2 seconds
http://sportstream24.com/england_football/watch_online_8.php
-
The quality of the Villastreams feed is as good as their pitch.
-
Blakey in the technical area. Has lost a lot of hair since 'On the Buses'
-
Found this one. Johnny foreigner commentary but seems ok
http://rokshome.blogspot.com/
-
Good stream, but no sound???
-
The quality of the Villastreams feed is as good as their pitch.
Anything coming out of Blackpool is tacky and shite.

The cellarman from a victorian gin palace with a crap delivery there.

Any English comm. streams?

not ah mazingly clear.. am i still drunk kinda hazy!
but giv that a go
-
2-0 West Brom
Not looking good for West Ham.
-
2-0 Baggies
-
2-0 West Brom
Not looking good for West Ham.
They'll have the best stadium in the Championship soon, never mind.
-
Afternoon gents.
Villa boys in good voice. Just hope the team match them.
-
anyone else finding villa streams a bit shit?
-
Why is Ash playing in thermals, scarf and gloves... does he think its Alaska?
-
Gabby!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Beauty!!!!
-
GGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
-
gaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
-
Gabby!
-
Gabby
-
Well done Gabby (nearly fecked it up though)
-
Gabby is back!
-
FUCKING YES!
-
YYYYEESSSS GTabby
-
Quality finish Gabby!
-
Why is Ash playing in thermals, scarf and gloves... does he think its Alaska?
The obvious answer is that he does not run around enough to keep warm
-
Defenders should really have blocked that, mind.
-
Superb Gabby
-
Really great goal. Started with a fantastic tackle by Jean Deux
-
shove that goal up your arse Holloway.
-
It was a bit of a half arsed finish.
-
Really great goal. Started with a fantastic tackle by Jean Deux
He even managed to find one of our players from on the floor!
-
Fully expected Gabby to miss that when he went one on one - quality finish
-
Stick that one in your carrot slot Holloway, you gummidge bummer.
-
good overlapping again by Walker. Corner Villa
-
looking at the replay, it was pretty lucky to go in. Had he stuck it properly it may have been cleared.
Great lay off by Bent.
-
http://www.directon.tv/channels/4395/
not ah mazingly clear.. am i still drunk kinda hazy!
but giv that a go
Cheers, gone down now.
-
Thank fuck he scuffed it, get in Gab!
-
Get in Gabby! Great stuff!
-
How much does Houllier get paid? Can someone buy him a decent coat he always looks freezing.
-
Any chance of holding a lead this week villa?
-
Adam's teeth are like the keys on a neglected accordian.
-
Stick that one in your carrot slot Holloway, you gummidge bummer.
Oi, stop being West Country-ist !!
-
I'm more nervous now than at 0-0.
edit: With good fucking reason. We are shit defending set pieces
-
Fuck!
-
Jesus fucking Christ.
-
Pathetic from a corner
-
shambolic defending.
-
Scored from the left wing, he can't play there though.
-
Shite marking again.
-
how many times are we going to concede from a corner!
-
Stop shouting 'Away' and fucking concentrate on keeping the fucking ball out Friedel for fuck's sake
-
Oh ffs. Comedy capers defending
-
Any chance of holding a lead this week villa?
I just read this and.......bollocks
-
Fucksticks, bad defending.
-
awful awful defending.
-
That was utter rubbish defending... but whats new!
-

Oi, stop being West Country-ist !!
Sorry, I meant 'wanker'.
And, oh shit. I knew this game would mean goals.
-
How fucking shit are we from corners!
-
Marking is such a basic part of defending. How nobody has picked up the runner is beyond me.
-
How fucking shit are we from corners!
what he said.
-
Fuck almost behind then.
-
Stop shouting 'Away' and fucking concentrate on keeping the fucking ball out Friedel for fuck's sake
that gets on my fucking nerves shouting away all time
-
We're weak in midfield.
-
They should have scored again.
-
Makes you wonder what they do in training during the week.
-
Shit Downing. You had to score then
-
Good cross by the Blackpool striker. looks a decent player. Maybe Villa should sign him
-
I can see this being 4 -5
-
bloody hell you get the feeling this is going to be high scoring already!
-
Club scored most goals from corners = blackpool
Club conceded most goals from corners = villa
inevitable.
And Downing should have just done better
-
Downing should have buried that ffs
-
Downing should have scored.
-
Unlucky
-
Downing, you ponce.
-
They had 2 players free for that corner, what the f**k do they do on the training ground... sorry bloody nothing!
-
one for all the Downing fans how did he not score
-
Really fed up with our defence to be honest. Another complete overhaul in the summer at the back.
-
I can see this being 4 -5
Beat me to it. I was just about to type something similar
-
NRC showing balls of steel.
-
I can see this being 4 -5
yeh, this isn't ending 1-1. Both teams are completely mince at the back.
-
We could have scored twice there. Have a feeling this is going to be about 6-6
-
We look great coming forward, but we defend like a relegation side.
-
Downing should have done better with both chances.
-
Leave her alone Ash.
-
You can't beat Slovenian commentary !!
-
We look great coming forward, but we defend like a relegation side.
we're opening them at will, yet as soon as they get the ball we completely forget how to play the game.
-
Downing should have done better with both chances.
I'm still to be convinced with Downing. Plenty of effort, gets in the right positions but there's still something missing.
-

A big pair of hairy, sweaty bollocks, I think.
-
Blackpool should have scored there.
We might as well play with six men, because when they come forward, the back four aren't there.
-
Bloody hell that was close.
This is like watching a schoolboys game.
-
Gabby v Marlon would be a better fight that Lewis v Haye
-
Lucky there
-
My christ Clark is getting slaughtered at left back.
-
How did the nose not score then!
-
fuck Villa. We give the ball away in suck stupid places. Watching Man U earlier, you never got the impression they were going to make simple defensive errors in their own third of the pitch.
-
These are words I never thought I'd utter, but I'll be extremely surprised if Marlon Harewood doesn't score today.
-
They obviously see Clarke as the weak point to attack.
-
How did the nose not score then!
Who's the nose?
-
Excellent decision linesperson!
-
How did the nose not score then!
Who's the nose?
DJ Campbell
-
These are words I never thought I'd utter, but I'll be extremely surprised if Marlon Harewood doesn't score today.
He won't have a better opportunity than today against us!
-
Christ on a bike, might as well have just picked 10 forwards and had one goal, like old school wembley!
-
Cueller injured and signalling to come off.
-
Ashley Young on the left does what he shouldn't be doing. i.e too much. Just beat the man and cross the fucking ball Ash.
-
Cuellar's hamstring gone I think.
-
Cuellar injured
-
Carlos going off.
-
Collins coming on. Something to aim at on corners.
-
Cueller injured and signalling to come off.
hamstring by the looks of it.
-
Shit. Stream gone down. Back to WM
-
You can only get evens on four goals or more at the moment.
-
We are so slow through the middle. Pretty much all of our centre halves turn as fast as the number 11 bus.
-
http://socerroom.blogspot.com/
-
Nice run by "Kylie" Walker, as the Albanian commentator just called him
-
it won't suprise me at all if this isn't one of those games where we take the lead 3 times and end up drawing or losing. Even with two midfield battlers we are still so porous.
-

Cheers
-
Our hope today lies in the fact that, if anything, Blackpool are worse than us at the back.
-
Close Downing.
-
Downing hits the post.
-
great effort from Downing. Just wide
-
Attack Baptise. Young, Downing and Gabby should just run at him every time. The bloke hasn't got the pace and will be sent off.
-
Close from Downing. Is it just me or does something seem very flat about this game.
-
Unlucky Stew
-
Unlucky Downing, good effot
-
Our hope today lies in the fact that, if anything, Blackpool are worse than us at the back.
If we don't win this one, against a team that have lost the last 5 whilst, letting in 16 goals, we deserve to be in a relegation battle.
-

marginally
-
great effort from Downing. Just wide
Oh, but no, he's rubbish, he doesn't go into tackles like Mark Dennis on speed.
He's our best player by a mile today.
-
Played some lovely stuff going forward, but composure and final ball has cost us. Should be 3-4 up IMO, and will lose this second half on not taking the chances we have had.
-
It's the defence, stupid!
Happy as I am with the signings of Bent, Makoun and Bradley, it was our defence that got us into this mess in the first place and that wasn't really rectified in Jan.
We always look like we have a goal in us (as we did earlier in the season) but we always look like we could concede twice as many.
-
Frustrating as ever.
-
come on guys.ANY STREAMS ?????
-

He could score three and there will be those battering him for not being Shaun Teale.

I'm on this at minute

That pitch is awful. Is that a Lithuanian daffodil picker in goal for them?
-

We probably would have signed someone had they not started playing well during the period. Which now seems to be a fluke.
-

Oh, but no, he's rubbish, he doesn't go into tackles like Mark Dennis on speed.
He's our best player by a mile today.
Yeah, best crosser by a country mile. Oh hang on, you're talking about Downing or Dennis?
-
Just showed Blackpool's goal and Dunne was as slow as f@@k, in fact did he even bother trying to mark the player.
-
We should have scored at least four goals by now.
Unfortunately, we should also have conceded at least four.
-
there we have a perfect example of why we are struggling defensively. First Clark gets caught by Marlon. Collins does well, and via Jean II ends up with Dunne. Dunne fucks around with it and he ends up just blasting the ball back to them. We really do cause our own issues most of the time.
-
I hope there is no clash of heads between Marlon and Makoun. Could be nasty.
-
great effort from Downing. Just wide
Oh, but no, he's rubbish, he doesn't go into tackles like Mark Dennis on speed.
He's our best player by a mile today.
He could score three and there will be those battering him for not being Shaun Teale.
And how come each thing he does wrong be one in the eye for 'Downing Apologists' but every one of the numerous things he does right is not one in the eye for them?
If Ashley Young was Downing he would get absolutely slaughtered.
-
Come on Villa, close again. Bloody good game this. Very open.
-
Walker can run further in a half than most full backs in a season. The boy never stops!
-
Kyle Walker is running himself into the ground. He's either got some engine or he's going to be knackered by 60 minutes.
-
Telepathy between Downing and Walker - not !
-
we have go to be more clinical.
-
DOWNING YOU PRICK!!! How many times is that greedy bastard not going to pass the ball?
-
He DID pass the ball, but Walker had switched off!!!
-
Why are we so dismal when it comes to passing a football?
-
Why are we so dismal when it comes to passing a football?
That's the thing, though, we're not.
We're quite good at it, and attacking, too. The problem is that in defence, we're like a schoolboy team, all chasing the ball witlessly
-

we haven't been bad going forward, and this "pitch" isn't helping. That surface probably reminds Holloway of home.
-
Gabby a left winger... do me a favour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
The most subtle shoulder barge ever from Gabby there!
-
the assistant ref on the far side has nice legs.
-
The only really dismal thing about us is Richard Dunne. He continues to be fat and slow and mess up in just about every game. The fat fucker.

We're good at tapping it around among ourselves and making little headway with it and causing the opposition few real problems, I'll give you that.
-

I was just thinking how much better we are now at passing?
We just got bury our chances and stop the mistakes at the back.

Careful now.

-

And he had a good run around January so we did not sign another player to replace him. He CAN play it's just that he doesn't.
-
the assistant ref on the far side has nice legs.
Careful now.
You could go round Canada any night of the week and find toronto masturbating over her feet.
-
The crossing has been piss poor today.
-
Our final ball has been poor again though. More accurate and would be winning this by a cricket score.

We've created lots of chances. We just haven't taken them.
Meanwhile, at the back, they're all sitting around sipping cocktails.

It was a tweet I just passed on from some bloke who goes by HairyMoron on Twitter
-
I'm doing a Guardian chalkboard about how many fucking times their keeper has been crossed/passed to by a Villa player.
-
We should have scored so many, I wish some chances would fall to Bent.
-
Poor delivery, again and again.
-
Alrighton and Delfouneso should come on second half, this game is just soo open.
-
Half time. Should be 4-4
-
Gabby a left winger... do me a favour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he isn't playing on the left wing though. He's playing left of centre.
He has just run all thye way down the left wing and because he has not got a left foot, he has had to stop and check inside to lose the ball and then to compound it gives away a stupid free-kick. Oh by the way what the heck is 'left of centre'?
-
Composure and final ball have cost us a game winning lead at half time.
-
Hmmm, we need to be much more clinical.

Frustrating, as usual.

we will not have another game where we have so much posession in attacking areas, our execution its so poor

Maybe expectations are too high. I'd just be happy if he could cross a ball.
-
Not bad Gabby looking better looks like he has license to come off the left in this game, makoun looking so neat again and walker have played well also sticking up for downing who everyone seems to hate in and around me!
-
This satellite set up looks impressive.
Put some hardcore eastern european grot on for half time.
-
We should have scored so many, I wish some chances would fall to Bent.
Whilst Downing is playing so piss poorly Bent will not get the service. How someone thought Downing was our best player in the 1st half I'll never know, Gabby has been. SD has been dreadful. (And I am a big Downing fan!)
-

Are you serious?
He's been our best player by a country mile.
-
Downing is not playing poorly at all.

The game is crying out for Albrighton's crossing.

GH isn't playing with conventional two wingers up front. Both Ash and Gabby are playing either side and just behind Bent. Bent is essentially playing up front on his own and drops as deep as the half way line. Gabby and Ash are dropping much deeper to pick up the ball and supporting in attack.

looks at watch..right on cue
-
Has Ashley Young done anything?
Get him off for Albrighton, move Downing left and Gabby up front.
-
Downing's making a nuisance of himself on the wing, but his end product (oo-er) is rubbish.

really thought downing has done okay so far not brilliant but wouldnt describe it as dreadful i must be watching a different game to everyone else as Downing always gets stick and i think hes played well for us

He is playing 4 5 1...there is no way Ash and Gabby play "along-side" Bent
-
Don't think Gabby or Downing have been poor at all. We've looked very dangerous going forward. We will score at least one more just need the back four and Friedel to concentrate and we'll be fine.........Honest.

Blackpool are horrific at the back. How Downing fucked up the assist for that chance was unbelievable. Crazy how open they were though it was 4 on 1. Think Gabby is playing well as is Downing but anyone who plays wide today will have a field day. Clark started rerribly but the defence has steadied since the introduction of Collins. Makoun is having a bit of a mare I think.
These guys are worse than Fulham last week and they were dreadful.
Ashley Young has played like a prat in the first half also.
-
weve got Albanian commentary on AVTV quite funny as we have Kylie Walker playing for us
-
We should have scored so many, I wish some chances would fall to Bent.
Whilst Downing is playing so piss poorly Bent will not get the service. How someone thought Downing was our best player in the 1st half I'll never know, Gabby has been. SD has been dreadful. (And I am a big Downing fan!)
Are you serious?
He's been our best player by a country mile.
WHAT? His crossing has been abysmal!!! And he missed a one on one to put us in front! I cannot believe you think that. I am shocked.
-

he gets into some great positions and then does nothing with it
-
Gabby a left winger... do me a favour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he isn't playing on the left wing though. He's playing left of centre.
He has just run all thye way down the left wing and because he has not got a left foot, he has had to stop and check inside to lose the ball and then to compound it gives away a stupid free-kick. Oh by the way what the heck is 'left of centre'?
Did you see the space he got from the left to erm.... score the goal?
That makes up for everything else then, fair enough, must be my mistake, he is obviously a fantastic left-winger, should be called up for England soon then!
-
Has Ashley Young done anything?
Get him off for Albrighton, move Downing left and Gabby up front.
Yep, played in Downing for the shot he should have scored with and also played in Makoun near the end of the half. Nice to see him spotting the killer pass a couple of times rather than dilly and dally with the ball.
-

Yes that's right, that's ANOTHER wasted opportunity then.
-
yep with all the goal to aim at he picked the post, before that he picked the keeper
-
What formation are we playing?
We shouldn't be drawing with this shite. Get the ball and keep the ball Villa. Holloway hasn't got a fucking clue.
Also get some decent efforts at this woeful goalkeeper.
Can see Beattie coming on for them and grabbing a winner the fat git.
-

GH isn't playing with conventional two wingers up front. Both Ash and Gabby are playing either side and just behind Bent. Bent is essentially playing up front on his own and drops as deep as the half way line. Gabby and Ash are dropping much deeper to pick up the ball and supporting in attack.
He is playing 4 5 1...there is no way Ash and Gabby play "along-side" Bent
I didn't say they were playing "alongside" Bent now did I?

He found the post from 20-odd yards out. What a prick.
-
its a sort of 4-4-1-1 with gabby drifting in occaisionaly
-

Thats harsh i would hardly say that, it was a quality shot that was unlucky it didnt go in off

If Downing wallopped the ball into the onion bag from 50 yards out three times hawkeye would moan he didn't do it from 60 yards.

Just tuned in at HT & seems OK
-
Anymore silly comments?
Yeah, Downing's deliveries have been first rate.
-
Downing has done ok, but his final ball has been very poor. Overall that is our big issue.

Come on villa come on downing
-

Agreed, on the whole, we have trouble passing a football when it really counts.
-
Just got to say Downing didn't actualy miss. It was a good save. Maybe he may have dine better, but he has been our most influential and most likely to create or score himself this afternoon. he's playing well, most of the team are to be fair.
Im enjoying this, its a good game.
-
if it wasn't for Downing's contribution this season, we'd be in the bottom 3...
-
Downing has done ok, but his final ball has been very poor.
Agreed. Can't understand some nutters on here think he's been our best player. Must be something in the water in south Brum.
-

Our big issue is defending actually.
-
Bollocks, stream gone.
-
Shite cross number 1.
-
Anyone got a decent link (again)?
-
Awful defending from a corner. Again.
-
there you go Downing lobs the ball stright to the keeper so they can set up an attack-marvelous
-
Awful defending from a corner. Again.
my Hearts in my mouth every time we concede a corner
-
That's a fantastic tackle from Dunne.
-
Oh, the excitement, an Ash free kick!
-
If our final ball were better, there would have been 4-5 in the first half and thus less emphasis on the defence.
-
decent link anyone?
-
Come on everybody, repeat after me: Less tip and tap, more zip and zap.
-
Get MA and Bradley on.
-
there you go Downing lobs the ball stright to the keeper so they can set up an attack-marvelous
Did he run over your dog or something? Or is it an irrational thing?
-
What the hell was that "watch my eyes" thing from Ash?

Gazza, try this
http://ikan.pptv.com/p/34556/
Chinese commentary but decent stream, takes a min or two to come on line
-
What the hell was that "watch my eyes" thing from Ash?
He was saying, "I'll poke both my eyes out if this crap free kick goes in."
-
How we're not losing this I'll never know.
Campbell misses a sitter.
-
Fucking hell our defence needs to shape up.
-
Well in Makoun !!
-
Downing has been involved a lot but has had acres of space down their left but has wasted a lot of good possession - including the best chance of the first half which he should have buried with ease. Our left looks just as bad. Clark may be a good prospect but not at left back.
-
Bloody Campbell again!
-
Makoun needs to be careful of those 2 footed tackles.
-

I thought that was deflected myself
-
We look woeful defending both flanks , walker and Clark are both good going forward but her exposed at the back- such a wide open game there simply must be more goals here - 2-3 villa !
-
Heskey on for Bent
-
Aye aye, here comes the big man.
-
Emule. When all else fails.
-
Heskey on for Bent
-
Heskey on for Bent
-
Emile!
-
God almighty, is Bent injured?
-
Bent off, Heskey on.
-
if it wasn't for Downing's contribution this season, we'd be in the bottom 3...
I agree but what the hell has that got to do with his performance today????
-
Heskey for Bent!!!!
-
Heskey for Bent. WTF ?
-
Right come on Emile.
-
Hskey 9/1 next scorer.
*ponders*
-
Heskey on for Bent ??????????????????
-
I'm assuming he's suffering a bit.
-
Hmmm... That's an odd call.
-
Awful corner from us.
Again.
-
I'm assuming he's suffering a bit.
Not as much as me.
-
Another shit corner.
-
Good decision Bent has done nothing today and before people say he hasnt had tge service, the ball just bounces off him today.
-
Bent played the full 90 mins in mid-week. And he doesn't seem to do anything apart from score really (I know he did play Gabby in for the goal today). I think Heskey will do well.
-
Now GH is really getting on my fuckin tits!!
You dont know what you are doing!!!!!!!
-
Not happy to see Bent off.
-
Bent hasn't had much involvement in this game to be fair.
Ash has now gone from hitting the first defender to aiming for the opposite touchline from his corners.
-
ooooh
Had a small wager on West Ham drawing when they got back to 3-1. 3-2 now.
-
Was that a corner or a rocket salvo?
-
West Brom 3-2 West Ham
-
Bents not really been in the game much - I don't think he's injured as he look surprised- brave decision- let's hope it pays off.
-
Houllier out
-
Not happy to see Bent off.
Unless he is injured its madness.
-
Bent played 90 on Wednesday, we have a squad, let's use it.
-
Hskey 9/1 next scorer.
*ponders*
That reminds me: I must do a couple of lines on the French lottery before 7pm.
-
ooooh
Had a small wager on West Ham drawing when they got back to 3-1. 3-2 now.
Piquionne just hit the bar to make it 3-3.
-
Like that substitution. Bent hasn't had the best of games. Service hasn't been great. Heskey might just hold the ball up and retain it that bit more to create something. Brave choice from Ged cause if we don't win he will be lambasted by people saying he should have stayed on.
-
ooooh

You get a goal now for hitting the bar?
-
Another shit free kick. Our delivery is brutal.
-
We're fading here, it's embarrasing.
-
idiot substitution again from Houllier. Makoun needs to be replaced. having a shocker out there.
-
What can I get for Blackpool 2 Villa 1?
-
Bents scores goals - he sometimes does fuck all for 89 mins but then scores.
EH does fuck all.
-
ooooh
Had a small wager on West Ham drawing when they got back to 3-1. 3-2 now.

Games crying out for albrighton- we have gone really sloppy 2nd half.
-

A kick up the arse, you moaning git!
-
Having to listen on WM again - doesn't sound like we've started second half - all Blackpool
-

Well, looking at the VIctor Chandler live page (which, fact fans, I wrote), 19/5.

Heskey managed to do it from 2 yards the other week

Oh fuck off Downing!

Shit cross number 12222
-
Fucking hell, nearly from Marlon.
-
This is painful.
-
This is dreadful
-
wigan scored v liverpool
We could do without that.
-
The delivery of our set pieces is so very very poor.
-
we are so shit
-
Get Downing off. Walker shaky at the back again too.
-
We need to wake up here
-
Fucking struggling against the mighty Blackpool, fucks sake.
Even West Ham spanked them.
-
We're just playing into Blackpool's hands. It's like MON never left.
-
Bloody Hell Villa
-
Fucking hell. Do I not like that.
This is all going to shit.
-
This is shit.
-
We need to wake up here
yep if we dont soon they will score close again
-
Oh my that was close. Have we run out of ideas?
-
We need to start battling in the middle. Bradley on.
-
we are having something of a bad patch at the moment.
-
We are wank. Remember: Houllier tried to come here on a sabbatical.
-
I've just realised we aren't losing. Get in!
Losing... yet.
-
how many have these lost this year? 5? 6? Come FUCKING on
-
Fucking hell Villa wake up.
-
We should be dead and buried here , maybe we can launch a smash and grab.
-
We're just playing into Blackpool's hands. It's like MON never left.
MON had many faults but his teams were never as pathetic as this one.
-
Piss poor GH. You can buy all the ingredients but it takes a good chef to make the dish work.
-
Makoun red card
-
Makoun off. The ******.
-
Makoun sent off.
-
Makounf red
-
Red for Makoun
-
Got the ball!!
-
Fantastic. Red card.
-
Makoun sent off - straight red
-
Oi up chaps, hows it going? Looks like not too well.
Anyone got a link?
-
Bollox and bigger bollox
-
Deserved as well, fucking terrible tackle.
-
Correctly so as well.
-
We're just playing into Blackpool's hands. It's like MON never left.

Have to agree, we were never as gutless as this.
-
that's fucked it
-
Makoun should have been subbed for Bradley. This is turning into the wreckage I thought it might.
-
This streams back
http://socerroom.blogspot.com/
-
That is not a red card offence-ridiculous
-
Great, Makoun is out, what happened to these 11 easy win games eh?
-
Oh christ.
-
That is never in a million years a red.
-
I've seen worse challenges go unpunished. He didn't actually make contact. more of a flick.
-
cowardly prick having a mare didnt fancy it and gave the ref no option but to take him out of his misery.
-
They should have been buried by half time. Our final ball was very poor. We are now paying for it.
-
That is not a red card offence-ridiculous
Yes it was. There's no way that it was anything other than a red card.
-
Get bradley on for gabby .
-
We're just playing into Blackpool's hands. It's like MON never left.

I'd agree but I did see this season coming even before he left.
-
more of a yellow, if anything. Webb is a useless ******,
-
cowardly prick having a mare didnt fancy it and gave the ref no option but to take him out of his misery.
What on earth are you talking about.
-
That is never in a million years a red.
As seen countless times this season, go in off the ground, two footed like that, and you're off.
-
That is a red in my view. Poor challenge.
-
There'll be a gaping hole in midfield with Jean II Makoun's head out of it.
-
Harangue the DJ.
-
We'll go on to lose and Houllier will say ''The sending off changed the game. We were playing well up to that point'' á la the dreadful display at home to Sunderland before Emile's stupid sending-off.
-
BlueNose Campbell made it look worse than it was.
-
like to see that again but didnt look like a red to me could be wrong
-
hmm whether to sit and watch us play 20 minutes of backs to the wall panic and hoof or go and get pissed?
-
Bronte what are you on fella?
Bradley coming on for Gabby.
-
Bradley on for Gabby
-
Never a red card, come on Villa FFS!
-
here comes Bradley
-
We are playing for a point against Blackpool - cheers GH.
-
Who got sent off ?
-
Its been coming from Makoun since he started, at least we have 3 games to see the alternatives
-
Who got sent off ?
Makoun
-
Reckon they'll score now.
-
Come on Bradley.
-
Let's see if our 10 men can murder Blackpool's 11, like Tottenham's 10 murdered us.
-
Thats about the third time Makoun has made a 2 footed tackle in this game.
-
We are playing for a point against Blackpool - cheers GH.
Be thankful for small mercies.
-
No complaints from me about the red card - 3 match ban too.
-
Bronte what are you on fella?
My guess is MON's dick. (winky)
-
from bbc
Villa red card: A bit harsh this. Yes, Jean Makoun is late with his tackle on DJ Campbell but he didn't get that much of the man. Referee Howard Webb decides it is a straight red card, however, and Villa are down to 10 men.
-
any chance we can give Houllier a red?
-
awful, truly awful
-
We really need 3 points today (understatement I know).
-
We created more than enough chances to win this game in the first half. I know GH is going to get slated if we lose, but you can't blame him if collectively as ateam we don't take those opportunites and on top of all that get a key bloke sent off.
-
The entire second half has consisted of Blackpool running at us, while we flail around hopelessly.
It is inevitable that they are going to score now.
-
And the panic begins
-
We're being made to look silly by a team in orange.
-
One way traffic practically all this half. Be lucky to survive with a point at this rate
-

You can, however, slate the continued defensive shitness that saw us concede a terribly soft goal in the first place.
As he himself said the other week, it's hard to win matches when you gift the opposition a goal or two a match.

Yeah leave the genius alone.
-
Young has resorted to throwing himself down and spitting his dummy when he doesnt get the foul. Again.
-
Being battered by a Blackpool team containing a 20 stone Andy Reid.
Pathetic.
-
Can we just finish these fuckers off so be can all go away and do something far more interesting.
-
Apart from Collins, every one of them is looking like a powder puff pansy
-
Young booked for moaning AGAIN!

yep. I think that's as much down the cards dealt though. He might be doing all he can in training to make them better but if they ain't got it, they ain't got it.
-
Villa remind me of when my brother's team in Mellor (Lancs) turned out for a Sunday game the day after we/they had all been out on his stag night in Preston.
-
I'll take a point now. This is terrible
-
Moaning rightly
-
Can we survive the onslaught? Can we prevent the usual ending??...can we score???
-
the nice thing about watching us is that we always leave it depressingly interesting until the 90th minute
-
I'll take a point now. This is terrible
I'd have taken a point 20 minutes ago, let alone now.

Well he has been there 5 months now and didnt buy a centre half/left back in the transfer window so thats his fault
-
West Ham equalise!
Beaiuty!
-
Young booked for moaning AGAIN!
They were saying on BRMB earlier that he was limping and looked in pain. They obviously don't watch every match we play!!!
-
Wish the game would end. Beginning to wish the season would end. Its pants.
-
Played Nige.
-
baggies 3-3
-
trema-trema west bromwisch albiyun. says the slovak. is that 3-3
-
West Ham equalise!
Beaiuty!
Come on Hammers, get a 4th.
-
Shite delivery AGAIN from Downing.
-
it's times like these, we need one of those natural goalscorers..one of those players who can nick a game against the run of play...someone a bit like.... Bent.

No, it means "It ay fair" in Slovakian.

Just put the house on Blackpool to win at 19/5. Don't tell the missus.
-
if the same rules were being applied Cathcart gets sent off for the double footed challenge on Ash
-
Downing crosses have been awful.

We can't afford to play with 9 men
-
I really did not see this coming at half time- what a dreadful second half!
-
Shite delivery AGAIN from Downing.
Well apparently he is our best player today!! Useless, absolutely useless.
-
I've heard that techinically good ones just grow on trees and are available in January.
These ones were alright last season weren't they?
I think these ones were good in a counter attacking system where we just needed to stand tall and clear the ball. Ask them to play a bit and they're not up to it.
-
where is Bannan ? Petrov ? FO Houllier this is rank
-
Shite delivery AGAIN from Downing.
Well apparently he is our best player today!! Useless, absolutely useless.
If you look at the nine other useless wankers outfield with him it's a valid point.
-
Heskey falls over shock
-
Shite delivery AGAIN from Downing.
Well apparently he is our best player today!! Useless, absolutely useless.
He was our best player in the first half. Absolutely crap in this one mind. Some of us can see both sides without having to entrench ourselves with a certain opinion.
-
well, we just need liverpool to score and today's results will have worked in our favour...I mean obviously, we aren't good enough to rely on ourselves..

I don't care that they can't play a bit, it's just the normal defending from a corner that I expect.

it's about right now that I begin to fill my underpants.

16.40-16.55ish on a Saturday afternoon is my most hated fifteen minutes of the whole week.

Can't see Gerard supporting Liverpool can you? *whistly thingy*

I've heard that techinically good ones just grow on trees and are available in January.
These ones were alright last season weren't they?
I think these ones were good in a counter attacking system where we just needed to stand tall and clear the ball. Ask them to play a bit and they're not up to it.
I don't care that they can't play a bit, it's just the normal defending from a corner that I expect.
Yes, that's the worrying thing.
It's very difficult to sign anyone in January, obviously, but when we see the defence not seeming to be able to do the basics week after week, it is bemusing.

I'm not arguing with you, but a lot of it is down to confidence. Heading a football away and marking players shouldn't need to be taught.

Shite delivery AGAIN from Downing.
Well apparently he is our best player today!! Useless, absolutely useless.
He was our best player in the first half. Absolutely crap in this one mind. Some of us can see both sides without having to entrench ourselves with a certain opinion.
Balls. His delivery was piss poor in the 1st half as well so no need for the s"some of us can see both sides" nonsense. Also, I am a big Downing fan and get back him often when others don't, today he is poor and I am stating that, isn't that seing the other side???
-
it's about right now that I begin to fill my underpants.
Yep, won't be long now
-
Yet another crap cross
-
Fucking hell Clark.
-
Anyone else noticed that Bradley has been chasing shadows since coming on?

Starting your reply with "Balls" doesn't really suggest seeing the other side too well, to be honest.
-
Heskey back to his old self I see , at least we have a 2 week break now to regroup after this dreadful offering.
-
Dog shit win.
-
The Blues have scored.
-
1 - 0 Blues.......Zigic

No, that's lying.

Fucking B-lose scored

BoredNow recently tweeted : "Earlier singing of Andy Gray, my lord...WTF? embarrassment. "

Oh, for fuck\s sake.
-
penalty or not?
-
right on cue. Stupid free kick given away.
-
Coward Webb.
-
Blues are above us with two games in hand. I just want it all to end.
-
Dog shit win.
And go above Aston Pub XI with two games in hand.
-
I am currently shaking like a shitting puppy.

Looked a pen to me. Think Makoun was treated harshly, Young booked harshly, and that looked a pen.
-
Sad hoping the others do worse than us...relegation is not our style...6th is a joke lost in the mists of time..and who gets a last minute goal again..?
why can't we?
-
Young fucked it up well and truly
-
This is possibly the worst Villa TEAM I've seen since DOL was in charge.
Terrible, clueless.
-
You prick Young, what the fuck was that?
-
Fecks sake this is shite.
-
penalty or not?
he was looking for it.
In the club shop, does the Ashley Young come with his arms permanently up? Made by the same company that makes the Tony Adams doll.
-
Complete shit.
-
Well, that was as spineless a second half as you're ever likely to see, anywhere.
-

yep agree with you
-
1 point...
-
Bloody hell Young!
-

Let the record show Houllier's comedy XI took 1 point at Blackpool.
-
Makoun's tackle was a red, Young's yellow was well earned - more players should get yellows for continuous dissent.
The pen was a tough call, looked liked he got the ball and Young's constant complaining didn't help his cause.
-
two shit sides playing each other
