-
Sanchez at centre half then
-
Isn't he about 5 foot 6 or have I got that wrong?
-
Guzan not on the bench. I guess Timmay is just as fed up with him as I am.
-
Why not Steer on the bench?
-
Chicken and egg with brad though. Now he knows Tim wants shot of him it wouldn't surprise me if he became a busted flush.
-
Win please Villa.
-
That (on paper) is one hell of an adventurous line up!
-
Why not Steer on the bench?
Played last night I think
-
That line up is mental. Very risky.
-
Good luck with the Match Thread Mr Sox. I have retired after two straight defeats. Sadly.

Me starting the thread at the ground worked against Bornmuff
-
Accident just outside the ground on Nelson Road. Looks like a kid was run over. Not looking good
-
Just heard TS's 'my remit is just keeping us in the league' quote. Fucking hell.
-
Hope he's ok.
-
Just heard TS's 'my remit is just keeping us in the league' quote. Fucking hell.
I hate to hear that but I also don't believe him for a second.
-
is it on AVTV or is that just audio. Is it covered on any local station?
-
I'm fairly certain that four of the substitutes are in the Australian power pop boy band 5 Seconds of Summer.
-
Is the game anywhere on TV?
-
Jack Woodward just introduced a mascot as being from "Can-knock'
-
Nice to see a reintroduction of the 2-3-5 formation.
-

I doubt it. Just highlights later in the week I expect
-
I have been wondering whether history will endlessly repeat itself
New manager just about escaped relegation but takes some trouncings along the way. Sense of excitement for the next season but the fear factor overtakes an inexperienced guy and villa become pretty dull and uninspiring. Multiple promises that the squad is growing and will really be something in a couple of years
Let's hope not. It's fair to say this line up doesn't suggest as such! But then neither did playing four forwards against Bradford
-
Not on TV, but does anyone know of a link to listen to the game?
-
Wm 95.6 I think
-
Just heard TS's 'my remit is just keeping us in the league' quote. Fucking hell.
Yeah heard that after the match at the weekend on Talksport. I thought ffs.
-
Well, at least previous managers feigned interest in all of the similar ties e.g. before losing to Orient et al in the last 7 years. Whereas Tim wants nothing between 5-0 and 0-1.
-
I'm not a big fan of poring over managers' statements when they've got a microphone stuck in their face but that strikes me as the first volley in an 'I'm on a hiding to nothing' campaign. Hope not.
-
Wm 95.6 I think
thanks but decided to plump down some money for an avtv 1 month subscription.
-
Not being shown on any tv channel in the world according to liveonsat.com. I will have to listen to it on AVTV like some sort of caveman
Amazing the sense of entitlement I have these days.
Seeing as Tim has decided to play every attacker at the club it may be a good game.
-
Not on TV, but does anyone know of a link to listen to the game?
Should have been on BBC WM 95.6 FM but it's not now.
-
WM just went off air, as I dont think they are allowed to broadcast live commentary on the net. I dont have a radio in the house to listen to in the conventional way..
-
Pace and movement in the villa side tonight. No idea on the formation though!!
-
Jack just stated that AVTV is the only option to listen to the game.
-
WTF is up with Adama?
-
I see SSN can show the goals as soon as they have been scored
-
WTF is up with Adama?
he seems to be on the ball quite a bit and running down that right flank at defenders. Sounds like he's doing alright.
-
I have a radio and can't get it on there either.
-
I hate to bitch about Sherwood, but I wish there was a bit more consistency in the formations he chooses. Some continuity would help players develop patterns of play and greater confidence in where they should be moving. Take Sanchez for instance, he played well for 60 minutes on saturday in his first game and then he's shunted to CB to start all over.
-
From the text updates it sounds like Adama is bombing forward every other minute.
-
Burke booked
-
From the text updates it sounds like Adama is bombing forward every other minute.
He is but his crossing is awful so far
-
Gabby rested then :D
-
I really wanted to take my son tonight, promised him I would, but hes got a chest infection. I considered going without him, but thought it would be unfair on him.
-
From the text updates it sounds like Adama is bombing forward every other minute.
He is but his crossing is awful so far
slow trigger...
-
do we have any idea how we have lined up? Ayew and Grealish up top?
-
Um.....well... That wasn't part of the plan
-
Fuck
-
FFS. 1 down.
-
Hutton you plonker
-
do we have any idea how we have lined up? Ayew and Grealish up top?
Sinclair, Ayew and Adama are the front three
-
Also, AVTV commentary is absolutely rubbish. It's mostly them reacting to what has happened, rather than actually commentating on the action.
-
Defensive error?
-
I'm sure it will be be Guzans fault
-
OH FFS.....
-
Who would have thought this line up would fail to close a man down on the edge of the box?
-
Gabby and nzogbia should have be playing 😁
-
I've said it before and I'll say it again.
Forget a new centre back or striker, we need a half decent right back first and foremost. Bacuna and Hutton aren't good enough at all.
-
Shit tackle from Hutton but wicked deflection over Bunn
-
Also, AVTV commentary is absolutely rubbish. It's mostly them reacting to what has happened, rather than actually commentating on the action.
I said the exact same thing. It's crap. About to ask for my money back.
-
do we have any idea how we have lined up? Ayew and Grealish up top?
Sinclair, Ayew and Adama are the front three
interesting. Thanks.
-
How the fuck can they afford Wesley Sneijder?
How far have we fallen?
-
It's end to end stuff now
Good save by NC keeper and they go straight down the pitch and also score
-
What formation are we playing ?
They appear to be all over us.
-
Sinclair through on the keeper but fails to get a shot away. Shout for a pen but not given
-
What formation are we playing ?
They appear to be all over us.
Nominally 433 but it's a bit fluid
-
Yes
-
Get innnn
-
Adama
-
Goallllllllll Adamaaaaaaaaa
After a great run and pass from Jack
-
Adama and Eve it.
-
So grealish veretout Gil in a midfield three?
Hang on tight!
-
Get in Adama son
-
What formation are we playing ?
They appear to be all over us.
Nominally 433 but it's a bit fluid
So, Grealish and Gil in central midfield? Mental.
Oh look, we've scored. Nice work Jack and Adama.
-
Ex Barcelona player scores for villa
Still have to scratch my head about that
-
Sun 2 exter 2
-
If the runs are made, Jack will pick them out, as will Gill
-
For anyone who gives a monkeys, Celtic are losing in Malmö 1-0 so are going out as it stands on the away goal rule.
-
Oh I'd forgotten just how terrible the commentary really is. Fuck me.
-
Is this on some kind of radio station?
-
Adama really is unbelievable.
-
This is a great game to watch as well.
-
Did Sky Sports News actually replayed the golas?
-
Nice goal.
-
Did Sky Sports News actually replayed the golas?
I saw the goal on twitter.

-
Small heath fluking one
-
Adama is a bit Zog at times. Keeps running into defenders
-
Should be 3 1 up
-
Goal here
https://twitter.com/dvtavfc/status/636256050245705728
Nice.
Very cool finish and nice to see Grealish doing some damage dribbling on the edge of the area.
-
Did we keep the receipt for Ayew. What is the returns policy?
-
Sun 3 Exeter 3
-
Justice is served.
Celtic have a goal disallowed from a corner for pushing on the keeper by Griffiths and it's a really soft call.
2 minutes earlier Griffiths should have been sent off for punching a Malmö player in the nuts, but somehow only got a yellow.

Cheers. Wolves on WM, as you'd expect.

Pen to notes co
-
Pen to NC
-
Goal county
-
Stead scores
-
Jesus Christ. Are we cursed?
-
silly mistakes could cost us again. stupid boy.
-
Bunn could have been sent off as well but was just booked
-
Jesus Christ. Are we cursed?
Beginning to look like it isn't it?
-
Have we been silly-billies again?
-
Adama started well but drifted out of the game
Jack and Gil looking good
Ayew isn't impressing
Defensively Villa are all over the place
-
At least the commentary's stopped
-
Pathetic goalkeeping, why did he run out like that. Guzan's place is very safe
-
The lineup was asking for it to be honest. Very strange indeed. I'm all for attacking but you can't cram that many attack minded players into a line up against any team in the league.
We'll get our pants pulled down unless he sacrifices 1-2 of them sharpish.
-
Fuck me. A 6th season of the same old utter shite despite all of the changes & expenditure. Unfucking believable. And this avtv link is cack for Ł5 a month. Connection drops every time you touch your smartphone.
-
Not watching but it sounds like every game reinforces the need for a new striker!
Ridiculous team he's picked. Asking for trouble
-
Jesus wept
-
Got to be said, since half time against Palace, Tim has been tactically bloody awful. Ray needs to have a bloody word! Lambert, Bradford home.
-

A bit like the Burnley game from the end of last season.
-
I think it's been great to watch, two sides whose only interest is trying to score. Defensively we've been very iffy but some of the stuff going forward has been a joy. We have some special players on our hands.
-
Here's a thought. Why didn't he use this as an opportunity to get his entirely refreshed, partially gelled team used to playing together in something that looks vaguely like the side that will play in the league?
-

This is what Spuds fans warned of. I wish we'd save ourselves the embarassment and just put out a youth team. Save destroying the confidence anymore....
-
Dont think I can take another lower league fuck up, sort it out Villa.
-
Set us up with no real holding midfielder which gives the two centre back no cover. I know bunn fooked up but it was a baker big hoof down the middle that caught us out.
-

I'd be more than happy if tonight we match the one goal winning margin that we had in that game.

-
I hope I'm wrong here but I envisage a typical Villa second half. Chase the game early on and concede another around the 50 minute mark.
-
Once again conceded a goal late in the half. Why can't we score a late goal in either half? Sign Lescott!
-
Any confirmed or rough estimates of the attendance for tonight's game?
-

If we do will that mean that we stop conceding late goals and starting scoring them instead?
-
Any confirmed or rough estimates of the attendance for tonight's game?
Hard to tell as I'm in the lower holte so not a clue how many in the upper but I'd guess at 19k.
-
As we're losing I think we need to bring on some more attacking players...
-
We'll win, calm down everyone.
We got this.
-
As we're losing I think we need to bring on some more attacking players...
Not that Im not enjoying being linked with all these international wingers but surely we're very top heavy now?
-
If we are a joy going forward why have we only bagged one?
They are 16th in League two 😂 surely we are better than this!
-
How many times has Ayew been offside?
-
Kozak on for me. Damn, Jack just agreed with me.
-
Adama needs to start thinking about passing
-
Is Gabby on the bench? If he comes on and scores that'll guarantee him a starting place till Christmas.
-
Jeezus someone's run over a cat at villa park the last five years. What the hell is going on?
-
Any confirmed or rough estimates of the attendance for tonight's game?

Thanks.
Have Notts County brought many?
-
That was a better cross from Adama
-
YESSSSSSSSSS
-
What a goal. This is ace.
-
Goal from SirClive
Another great pass from Jack
-
2-2 niceeee
-
:)
-
Equaliser
-
That's what Jack needs to do a lot more. He's been really good tonight. Both goals created by him.
-
Tap in, good work.
-
Jack doing his thing.

Most of the lower tier of the usual away allocation by the looks of it
-
Grealish with a second assist.
-
Great interception and run by Rico to set up the pass to jack
-
How do they make me so fucking angry when we've just scored. SHUT THE FUCK UP.
-
Is it on streams? I'm sat watching Stoke Luton. I'll go get the laptop if it is
-
'and here they come again....'
who???? wtf are they doing?????
-
Who are these numptys on the radio?
-
Is it on streams? I'm sat watching Stoke Luton. I'll go get the laptop if it is
Sky Sports News are showing brief footage of all the goals as they go in. Radio commentary on AVTV and Radio Nottingham.
-
Is it on streams? I'm sat watching Stoke Luton. I'll go get the laptop if it is
No stream. We're reporting live from VP
Well, me and Mr Shin are anyway
-
Brilliant goal by County
Burke
-
FFS
-
Fuck me 3-2 Notts County
-
Fair play that was a worldy. Bastard.
-
Fucking hell Villa.
-
and it's fucking Burke too with a blinder
-
Embarrassing
-
Looks like playing Sanchez in central defence has been a roaring success.
-
Graham Burke of all people
-
wtf is going on
-
Oh dear me.
-
I'm watching Bournemouth v Hartlepool. Bournemouth are a great outfit.
Wtf are we playing at?
-
Closing down? Anyone?
-
With this we are becoming the joke of English football I am afraid....
-
Burken hell
-
Sir Clive's goal
https://vine.co/v/ejnI7p2I6bt
-
County resorting to hacking Adama. Should have been a second yellow.
-
'..what a goal they've scored ...'
This is doing my head in. Jack, cut out the pronouns.
-
Three at home to notts county. Sunderland at home Saturday is no home banker
-
As I am as happy as anyone about Grealish's assists, I think he still needs to pass the ball a second earlier. He was keeping it way too long over the weekend and even now for the second goal he got lucky to pass as he kept it too long and went too far sideways. And they score again as I type. Terrible goalkeeping tonight! :(
-
One more run by Adama on their left back and he'll get the bloke sent off
-
we are fucking atrocious at the back. WTF is going on back there?
-
Who is this prick in goal
-
Fuck this I've had enough already I'm off ;)
-
And fucking ace Traore looks fucked
-
Adama will have to come off
They've kicked him out of the game
-
Adama looks fucked
-
Is this really happening
-
i think I'd take penalties now
-
And fucking ace Traore looks fucked
Is this on TV in Canadia ?
-
Fucking hell. Sherwood needs Ray to have a bloody word!
-

Spot on
-
Letting 3 goals in at home is bloody ridiculous.
-
Need to get Kozak on for Ayew
-
Yet Bournemouth can go score four away from home at Hartlepool without breaking sweat. What the fuck has happened to our club?
-
With the team he's picked I'd say letting three in at home is not far off inevitable
Utterly ridiculous and predictable
-
Letting 3 goals in at home is bloody ridiculous.
to a league two team....
-
Starting to think the unthinkable now.
-
With the team he's picked I'd say letting three in at home is not far off inevitable
Utterly ridiculous and predictable
I agree, a truly fucking bizarre selection, no matter who the opposition
-
Cole blocks a goal bound header from Baker.
-
Great header by Baker and Cole clears it for them
-
Time to bring on Kozak and Sellars
-
9 teams winning, 2 teams drawing and one team losing in my 12 bet accumulator.
Can you guess who's letting me down?
-
Yet Bournemouth can go score four away from home at Hartlepool without breaking sweat. What the fuck has happened to our club?
I imagine Bournemouth lined up in something resembling a football team formation
-
Is this really happening
Five years of it.
-
Time to bring on Kozak and Sellars
Baker and Hutton off. Why bother with any defenders at all.
-
Starting to think the unthinkable now.
Even Leyton seemed unthinkable last season....
-
I pillared the last year for losing at home in the cup to lower league shit. TS will get the same treatment
-
County languish in mid table 3 leagues below Villa, with 4 goals scored in 4 games & -2 goal difference having spent Ł40m+ less & getting billions year less from TV rights. Sherwood is a joke, Wilkins is a clown, Fox is a fool and Lerner needs to be forced to surrender all non U.S. assets immediately.
-
Yet Bournemouth can go score four away from home at Hartlepool without breaking sweat. What the fuck has happened to our club?

11 changes from the weekend game at West ham too
-
Time to bring on Kozak and Sellars
I'd bring on Harry Seacombe.
-
Fucking hell Tim, best start thinking up the lines to explain this one away.
-
Why do we never get things right, it is so familiar yet so depressing. God almighty, yes the team needs time to get but we should not be losing to a league 2 side at home.
-
sherwood is really starting to get on my tits
-
This sounds fun.
We've got no business letting 3 goals in at home against a third division side, there are no excuses for this.
-
By the sound of it, Notts County have plenty of chances. Truly embarrasing.
Why not bring on Kozak ?
-
Adama will have to come off
They've kicked him out of the game
Does he look injured? How bad? What's happened?
-
What is the logic behind Sanchez at CB?
-
This sounds fun.
We've got no business letting 3 goals in at home against a third division side, there are no excuses for this.
I think it's fourth division....
-
Tim's TSM1 moment?
-
I've not heard Ayew's name all half (although the commentary is fucking awful). Where's Kozak?
-
Here comes Libor
-
I think Sherwood's totally underestimated County and is paying the price. I imagine Lambert is laughing his boll*cks off
-
Even Sunderland are winning :(
-
Does the 4th division exist? another lower league team knocks us out at home once again
-
Come on big man, rescue this for us
-
Tim the chancer. He'll soon be on the manager merry-go-round with the other overrated managers who somehow get reasonable jobs.
-
Ok were not out yet but probably will be
-
When do we decide that the team has had enough time and they aren't still trying to gel? Its ok signing all these promising players but if we cant do the basics then whats the point?
-
It will take a while for the team to gel but I don't know if there are really any excuses for shipping three to a fourth division side, at home.
That starting line up was worryingly nuts
-
The problem is, these shit, lower league sides just dont fear us. They really fancy their chances and relish a trip to beat us at Villa Park. They raise their game, we underestimate them and the result is inevitable.
-
I think Sherwood's totally underestimated County and is paying the price. I imagine Lambert is laughing his boll*cks off
Of course, Lamberts record in cup games against lower league opposition was stellar.
-
No-one fears us at Villa Park
-
So we're still shit but a different kind of shit.
-
The problem is, these shit, lower league sides jusr dont fear us. They really fancy their chances and rwlish a trip to beat us at Villa Park. They raise their game, we underestimate them and the result is inevitable.
I reckon that's spot on.
-
When do we decide that the team has had enough time and they aren't still trying to gel? Its ok signing all these promising players but if we cant do the basics then whats the point?
Precisely
-
Deja vu. Sick of it. We are soft as shit
-
No-one fears us at Villa Park
Hardly surprising, really
The only people who have feared us at home in the last five years are us fans, scared of the endless servings up of lukewarm vomit.
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
-
I think Sherwood's totally underestimated County and is paying the price. I imagine Lambert is laughing his boll*cks off
Of course, Lamberts record in cup games against lower league opposition was stellar.
Add Mcleish and O'Neill to that list as well
-
It will take a while for the team to gel but I don't know if there are really any excuses for shipping three to a fourth division side, at home.
That starting line up was worryingly nuts
Even if that team did gel it would have no bearing on future matches as there no way he'd, anyone!, would replicate that formation.
-
The problem is, these shit, lower league sides jusr dont fear us. They really fancy their chances and rwlish a trip to beat us at Villa Park. They raise their game, we underestimate them and the result is inevitable.
I reckon that's spot on.
That's the same situation that any big club would be in though. We seem to do it more than most though.
-
Still 30 minutes left, time to stuff Notts!
-
No-one fears us at Villa Park
Hardly surprising, really
The only people who have feared us at home in the last five years are us fans, scared of the endless servings up of lukewarm vomit.
Can't really argue with any of that
-
I'm not even sure it is a formation?
-
This is the nightmare that never wants to end. Can we not get a fucking 3rd goal and just crawl hands and knees into ET? Is that too much to ask?
-
Ffs..with the players we have signed, seeing off Notts County shouldn't be a problem. But inevitably for us it is..nothing ever changes
-
Still 30 minutes left, time to stuff Notts!
13 mins
-
Well having lost the last few last season, been embarrassed in the cup final, having lost the last two games in a row after a lucky smash and grab why didn't the fucking twats put out our best team, get the job done and then rest players. I'm fucking sick of us being embarrassed. Lose today and I'm through with him. Already.
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
straw grasping reaches it's nadir. Don't blame you though ITBRV, I could bloody weep.
-
Penalty to Villa
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
Nope. The major factor in shitness is a complete lack of any sort of plan top to bottom.
-
When do we decide that the team has had enough time and they aren't still trying to gel? Its ok signing all these promising players but if we cant do the basics then whats the point?
Is it the players who can't do the basics or the manager who can't create a side with tactical nous and players who can take scoring opportunities
-
Penalty
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
Why aren't we better at playing on our own pitch?
-
Richardson 'earns' us a pen
-
Has vertout done anything
-
Shame Ayew has gone off, good chance to get off the mark.,
-
Bang it innnnnnnnnnnn
-
SirClive.........scores
-
GOALLLL
-
Get in Scotty
-
Yeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh 3-3
-
Three all. Still wouldn't be shocked to see us lose this.
-
Thank fuck, now bloody stop letting in friggin goals and win this match
-
Shame Ayew has gone off, good chance to get off the mark.,
Really!? He had 75 mins and didnt hear him mentioned once
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
I've just been trying to think of a common factor amongst all the changes in all the seasons of shite we've endured since O'Neill shat his pants and ran away... Pitch? Coaching? Techtonic plates shifting Villa Park 0.03° and fucking up its Feng shui? Buggered if I know, but it seems to turn out the same, whoever's manager, whichever players. I don't get it!
Edited for goal! Yaaaaay! Super Tim! Everything's great!
-
SirClive.........scores
Is it a get out of jail piece of luck? Or will we let in another ?
-
Can we please not concede another and at least give ourselves a chance in ET? Any money they get a 4th.......
-
This is still ace. We should have scpred a 4th.
-
Shame Ayew has gone off, good chance to get off the mark.,
Really!? He had 75 mins and didnt hear him mentioned once
I meant just scoring a goal as he scored lots of penalties for Lorient.
He's the one summer signing I don't have great hopes for, has Veretout done much tonight or does he still look off the pace.
-
Sinclair should be given the chance down the middle at the weekend if Traore is fit. Best goalscorer we have got.
-
Three all. Still wouldn't be shocked to see us lose this.
Notts County 9/1 to win in 90 minutes.

Gypsy curse. The only explanation left.
-
Jack's enjoying this so much he wants ET. How about NO Jack? How about this has been horrible and we want to win in normal time.
-
This is one hell of a game
-

I was thinking that Saturday
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
Why aren't we better at playing on our own pitch?
Because we are shit at it and are not much better on smaller pitches elsewhere.
-
Hopefully my first match of the season on Sat will have this many goals, obviously with a more favorable ratio.
-
This is one hell of a game
Shouldn't be though :(
-
When did we last score four at home? Norwich two seasons ago?
-
Is there highlights on telly later?

Notts County 10/1 to win in 90 minutes....
-
Anyone think the fact that our pitch is one of the largest is a factor? Teams used to playing on smaller pitches take advantage of the extra space better than we do?
Nope. The major factor in shitness is a complete lack of any sort of plan top to bottom.
Made me spit my drink out, after all the fawning and 'credit where its due' threads over the summer.
-
Maybe the grass is too long
-
Villa 20-1
-
Sinclair should be given the chance down the middle at the weekend if Traore is fit. Best goalscorer we've got.
Yep. Been saying this for ages.

Too green?

The banner on top of the BBC web page for the match text has Villa 6 Notts County 3 with the Sunderland game scorers beneath it. When I first switched over and saw the headline I thought bloody hell
-
All us now. I expect a Notts County goal on the counter at any moment

Wave after wave............isn't that a song :P

be interesting to see how many goons pitched up at St Andrews & Hawthorns tonight by direct comparison

I'd take Defoe. He's exactly the type of forward we need.
-
According to BBC live reporting we are winning 6-3! Also, since when has Defoe being playing for us.

Bastards.

COME OOOON YOU VILLA BOYS!!!!

I am cacking myself; they'll score or we'll get a red card before FT.

Is there highlights on telly later?
Sky Sports 1 at 6:30pm and Channel 5 at 11pm. Both tomorrow.

Bastards.
He's found that PA. So efficient he can now play for two sides at once.
-
Were approaching Villa fucking it up time :(
-
Yeah I still think we'll lose this one!
Any sense of how bad the Adama injury is? Was thinking he should start on Saturday
-
How's Altidore played
Better than Gabby
-
John fashanu would do better than Gabby now
-
Choosing a forward for Saturday's game will be a case of picking the least worst option
-
The very last thing we need is another 30 minutes of play against a fourth division team in the week of the crucial Sunderland game.

They're as fit as a fiddle, and most of them won't even play this Saturday anyway.

Joe is on there to stop that and hopefully, to set up something else.

Sincs, Traore , hutton ? Sanchez ?

Good for them, what about the Villa players?
-
ET vs Notts County. Ace
-
A number of people have left or are leaving who don't seem to realise there's extra time.
-
Sanchez, Sinclair and Grealish. Traore went off injured half an hour ago now.
-
Scottyyyyyyyyyy
-
YESSSSSSS!
-
Keep Scott Sinclair up front Tim FFS
-
get in for God's sake
-
A number of people have left or are leaving who don't seem to realise there's extra time.
Maybe they are leaving because they have realised there is extra time

Jack just got booked for drinking water during the substitution

That sounds harsh. Did he take a dive?

As long as the other 21 players are made to run around for 90 minutes beforehand, Cole could still start games

AVTV is shite!

Sinclair hatrick

Bennett on. Is Sherwood trying to lose this.

Fuck me that should have been 4-4

AVTV is shite!

Joe Cole and Joe Bennett.

Ffs - AVTV comm is abysmal - i get more info on sky news. They talk about anything else than what happens on the pitch. Don't even know who is in possession

I do not know, thanks God I am not in TS'head, and I still haven't understood with which formation we have played tonight.
-
I bet even Joe Bennett's mum is holding her head in her hands and muttering, "FFS"
-
Joe Cole and Joe Bennett.
Barrels scraped.
Well Joe Cole set up the 4th so I think you might want to reconsider your statement there.
edit: They both had a hand in the goals to win the game. The gold was found at the bottom of the barrel!
-
Well at least Sinclair has shown his usefulness again.
-
Come on Joe. Both of you.
-
Lovely first time ball from Cole. He still has such a classy touch, shame he can't run.

Like a 60 year old ex-pro in a park game

God, they're filthy. 3 yellows to our one, and that's Bunn. Obviously a mistake.

Never in doubt...........

Indeed.
3 v Forest in pre season.
3 v County tonight.
We should only start him when we play a team from Nottingham.

I agree. I think it's the best substitution Sherwood has made so far this season. A calm head with class. Well done Joe. And Joe! 5-3!

I have no idea what you're on about. We won a game we didn't play well in. I'm hardly putting out the bunting. That's two or three comments you've made now after my posts, so give the snide little remarks a rest because it's really boring.

What fucking pom poms? You keep talking like I'm some cheerleader and that everything is ace. That's not even remotely close to the truth. Maybe you should learn to read my posts and stop being so utterly cynical all the time. You'll live longer. And if you don't like what I post ignore them and go find someone else to troll. You don't half talk some utter bollocks.
