Prayers said, begging the good Lord McGrath and Jedi Master Skywalker that today is the day we win again
Villa: Guzan, Hutton, Okore, Lescott, Bacuna, Gana, Westwood, Veretout, Sanchez, Sinclair, Ayew
Subs: Bunn, Clark, Richardson, Traore, Gil, Grealish, Gestede
Not really a very positive, attacking line up. Disappointed if I am being honest.
-
Is that a 4-3-1-2 maybe. Oh well try and win please Villa.
-
That's a strange looking team. 4-4-2 diamond possibly? No Gil? He really doesn't trust the defence one little bit.
-
Looks like the usual "wait 'till we're in the shit then introduce some attacking intent, too late"
-
Gil's been pretty poor in his last couple of appearances.
-
That lineup is terrible. Setting us up for a draw and not to lose, draws are no good to us. We need to win.
-
Gil's been pretty poor in his last couple of appearances.
Yes, but Westwood's been pretty poor in his last couple of seasons.
-
Uninspiring line up but you never know (well, we do know)
-
Sinclair has done nothing to retain his place.
Oh well, I'm sure we'll bring some flair on when we're 3-0 down.
We really are fucked.
-
Dreadful line up. Westwood is the new Heskey.
-
That's a strange looking team. 4-4-2 diamond possibly? No Gil? He really doesn't trust the defence one little bit.
What I don't like about it is that side will tray and contain in the first 15-20 as opposed to attacking and trying to be the more dominant side. Inevitably we'll concede and not have enough guns to get back into the game. He's scared to death of the counter if does press too high but I don't think this is the way either.
-
That lineup is terrible. Setting us up for a draw and not to lose, draws are no good to us. We need to win.
I'm not sure we really have a line up that looks too attacking. Who'd you put in? Gil's been poor of late, Grealish hasn't been great all season and whilst Traore looks good - there is an element of truth in what Garde says about how he is when he doesn't have the ball. Before he went on that excellent run against Arsenal he hadn't touched the ball once in five minutes.
I'd like Traore to start too, but I can absolutely understand why he hasn't.
-
Whatever way we look at it, we have a terrible squad.
-
Hardly inspiring, but Newcastle are rotten, and if the attitude is right, it could well carry us over the line. Come on lads, bust a bleedin gut for the cause!
-
Blimey, that's a depressing looking side.
-
Fuck it, let's smash these twats.
-
Newcastle have won 2 in a row. That team is designed to give us a for in the game. Or midfield had been walked through for weeks so I understand the philosophy of trying to be more compact. I think it's a similar formation that he played a lot at Lyon with 4 central midfielders. Expect Veretout to be almost number 10.
-
Looks a defensive selection 'as per Paul Lambert'in the hope of stealing a point. We need three Remi. Why Westwood why why why?
-
We are fucked.
-
Westwood's been fairly poor, but as the whole lot have been a bit shit I don't know why he's being singled out so much.
-
There might be a half-decent player in Westwood, provided he's told to actually move his arse occasionally and never has any defensive responsibilities.
-
Shades of Mcleish.
-
This is our season in 90 minutes. Lose and we're down.
-
We haven't got the midfield to play 3 up front and we can't afford to lose, so I understand the thinking behind the team, as dour as it looks.
-
I said we would lose this if Kozak and Traore didn't start. I now stand by that in the vein hope I am wrong.
-
We are fucked.
With other results today it is all over even if we win - Tonight we have no pace, no creativity, no Adama, no Grealish, no Gil and more importantly NO CHANCE
-
Dreary Villa.
-
Totally meh line up. Would rather see Gil or even Adama instead of Westwood. Someone who can create something rather than just ping a 5 yard pass back to the person who's just passed it to him, then point to the unmarked man who he should be picking up. Gabby conspicuous by his absence again - looks to have been well & truly frozen out. Not a completely bad thing.
-
Shall we just start the post match thread now and be done with it?
-
Fuckin West Brom twats.C'mon villa give us something to believe in please!!!!!!
-
Hardly inspiring, but Newcastle are rotten, and if the attitude is right, it could well carry us over the line. Come on lads, bust a bleedin gut for the cause!
They`re that rotten they`ve picked up as many points in two games as we have all season, i would be more optimistic with their squad than ours.
-
Sin-fucking-clair again? Why? Just why?
-
Dreadful line up. Westwood is the new Heskey.
Heskey scored the other day for the first time in a year ...
-
Shall we just start the post match thread now and be done with it?
The words 'disgrace' 'dead' and 'what was Bacuna thinking of' are bound to feature.
-
With the quality in our squad, any line-up is likely to get turned over. Lerner you cnut
-
Hopefully we will see some fight on the pitch today.
Preferably between 4 Newcastle players.
-
Shall we just start the post match thread now and be done with it?
I have just checked we are 10 points from safety. That is really quite concerning don't you think.
-
Shall we just start the post relegation thread and be done with it?
-
Just when you think it can't get worse.
-
I know we don't have much to choose from, but that's a really poor uninspiring line up. A clean sheet and an own goal win if possible.
-
Is that a 4-3-1-2 maybe. Oh well try and win please Villa.
thats how i see it, veretout behind ayew and sinclair. hope to see traore get a decent run today
-
Shall we just start the post match thread now and be done with it?
You just know it is another misery filled weekend. It has already commenced with other results, will confirm itself over the next 90+ minutes and then be capped off with the Post Match thread. I just can't fucking wait.
-
God I have just realised Westwood is back. Jesus.
-
I know we don't have much to choose from, but that's a really poor uninspiring line up. A clean sheet and an own goal win if possible.
I know we don't have many options, but we've not started with a recognised striker. They have just shown a league table for the 35 games in the year of 2015. Unsurprisingly, we were comfortably bottom, seven points from safety. Oh great, just seen that Ray Wilkins is in the studio as well.
-
If they're the 11 that have shown the most commitment what the manager is asking, then they're our best 11.
-
We are only 10 points adrift! A quick 4 game winning streak with none of the other teams getting anything will see us above the drop zone! Easy.
-
Sorry, just don't rate Garde. Another shite line-up, all the flair players left on the bench. Westwood and Sinclair starting is a joke.
-
I am off to a "Noël" Party and I will be at the spirits before the end of the game. Also, I am not driving so will be getting fucking wankered.
-
Richards injured again?
-
Cor blimey. This is a depressing read and we haven't even kicked off.
I think give them a chance today and see how they get on.
-
Someone on Sky Sports just said "Villa have to be careful they don't get cut adrift" 10 points from safety a week before Christmas. What do they define as cut adrift then for fucks sake! :-\
-
One of the depressing aspects is that even if we win, after the euphoria wears off, we've still got to make up seven points before we can even think about survival.
That, and we'll still be in single figures points-wise.
-
Come on you Lions!
-
fuck me lose today and we are 11 points off norwich 12 with our goal difference
jesus we must win today
-
Come on Villa!...Please?
-
One of the depressing aspects is that even if we win, after the euphoria wears off, we've still got to make up seven points before we can even think about survival.

So what your saying is.. The only way is up!
-
When was the last time we won a league game on sky?
-
Relegation looking side written all over it, but then I've already accepted we're down. Saturdays are much less agonising since doing so and I don't get so cut up about the shit brought upon this club by Lerner et al.
-
Come on you Villa boys! Get into the fuckers!
No, me neither.
-
Lescott looked scared to look Colocinni in the eye when the teams were in the tunnel.
-
Westwood playing.
Quick, someone throw a towel on to the pitch.
-
That is an odd midfield.
-
It's nice to see Ray Wilkins in the Sky studio offering his insight into our prospects.
-
Sunderland 6-1 18 months ago.
-
It's nice to see Ray Wilkins in the Sky studio offering his insight into our prospects.
Anything to do with him, may I ask?
-
Weather looks pretty attrocious
-
Well league game - of course we beat Liverpool on BT and Smethwick on BT.
-
I've got a nasty feeling we're gonna get a shoeing here
-
I was talking with another Villa van last night, and we agreed that while we may both have made our peace with relegation, it'll still be devastating once we have that R next to our name.
-
Afternoon, gents.
Can't see how we're going to do it but I still think we'll beat them.
-
These days I normally have a justified bad feeling about matches but it's worse than ever today. I fear an absolute mauling.
-
Too right Lescott ball out whoever that was who lost it straight away.
-
Summed up by bacuna already
-
When was the last time we won a league game on Sky?
[/quote
When was the last time we won?
-
Bacuna and Guzan - the chuckle brothers.
-
Jesus wept. Guzan under pressure from a Bacuna throw in
-
Great start from bacuna.
-
Sunderland 6-1 18 months ago.
Ta. Thought so.
-
We look fcukin hopeless at the back.
-
Keeping it tight so far.
-
Corner get in!
-
Bottom of the table with 6 points and we're still singing about blues. I wish someone would change the record and start singing about Villa.
-
Playing some okay football.
-
Fans who've travelled up to Newcastle the weekend before Christmas can sing what they like as far as I'm concerned.
-
I don't mean to pick on lescott but he looks well gone at this level
-
Sometimes Sanchez gives the ball away when that looks the hardest thing he could do.
-
Fans who've travelled up to Newcastle the weekend before Christmas can sing what they like as far as I'm concerned.
Aye, god knows where they find the strength.
-
Sloppy, Sanchez!
-
Bottom of the table with 6 points and we're still singing about blues. I wish someone would change the record and start singing about Villa.
Get yourself up to Newcastle at tea-time on a pissing wet day a week before christmas and then maybe you'll have the right to moan about how they show their support.
-
Sloppy, Sanchez!
A newer version of a dirty Sanchez?
-
Bacuna sloppy as well.
-
......the team that were bottom of the Premier League on Christmas Day in each of the last two seasons have managed to avoid relegation that campaign (Leicester 2014-15 and Sunderland in 2013/2014).
-
I don't mean to pick on lescott but he looks well gone at this level
such a fucking lazy signing
i would play a kid out of the academy before him
-

Agreed, they should all be in penitentiaries by now the shite they have had to witness.
-
What is the point in Sanchez?
-
Sanchez has had a bit of problem with his sight recently. Try permanently judging by his passing ability.
-
I'd like to think that if my job involved practicing playing football Monday to Friday, I'd do a better job of passing and crossing than Hutton manages most of the time.

I would normally agree about showing support for our players than sing mig about that lot but let's fucking face its not been like watching Barcelona recently has it? I hope those fans have a great time. It's a long way to go to anyway and then to watch us right now. Plus we might as well get the songs in because we'll be playing them next season.
-
Sanchez having one of 'those games'.
-
Sanchez can show the technique of Messi one minute, and Gestede the next.
-
Positives so far..
Newcastle look as bad as us.
-
The lack of creativity is frightening in this squad.
-
What is the point in Sanchez?
Beats me. He struggles with the basics.
-
You just get feeling in every match that the minute we concede its game over

Aye, the view for one of members today, they can sing what they want while we're all sat warm and comfortable at home.

-
They really look devoid of confidence don't they?
-
Positives so far..
Newcastle look as bad as us.
and, Okore looks okay.
-
Random thought, I think I'd fancy my chances in a scrap with any of our team, even accounting for the physical advantage most of them would have, plus the fact that I'm out of shape and a total pussy.
*not Hutton obviously. I'm stupid but I'm not crazy.
-
Gana has been bloody awful. We really need something to go for us.
-
Ridiculous free kick Gana
-
Positives so far..
Newcastle look as bad as us.
But that won't last whereas we'll be crap to the end.
-

They can bring their fucking dinner as well.
-
The lack of creativity is frightening in this squad.
It's all on the bench.....
-
Gueye's performances have got progressively worse haven't they? Really good at the start
-
So the day we don't play Gestede, we pile more crosses in the first 15 minutes of this game than we have done all season.
-
Bloody hell, Guzan looked shaky on that free kick.
-
Good play gana... Crap cross Hutton
-
We got no one to create and our only potential scorer I'm not convinced by. We look like we gone for a point.
-
Gana has been bloody awful. We really need something to go for us.
He needs a proper midfield partner, someone of real quality because he's a good player being asked to do far too much. I reckon he'd look pretty good next to Yaya.
-
I can't believe he just said Hutton is a terrific crosser. He's a galloping full back who's absolutely hopeless at crossing for me. If you put lowton' cross on him he'd be a great asset
-
Gana and Sanchez are a liability.
-
Fooooooook off Hutton.
-
Sanchez is a constant liability.
-
We got no one to create and our only potential scorer I'm not convinced by. We look like we gone for a point.
The plan is to keep it tight for the first 20 or so and then slowly change personal and formation to win the game. Let's hope we can do the first bit. Usually we have shot ourselves in the foot by now.

They'll need it when I'm done with em
-
I do like Jores it must be said.
-
Periods of decent football broken by poor passing, and some unecessary fouling ... sooooo frustrating.
-
Veretout is a quality player.
-
Ayew and Sinclair as a pair. Oy.
I can see the sense in mobility if you're playing a diamond but the ball's not gonna stick much today
-
Fair comments - I'll shut up.
-
To be honest we've ridden the self inflicted pressure from the first five minutes or so, and it's pretty even. Not sure of what our plan to score is though.
-
Gana is as good at shooting NRC was; crap!
-
Gana channelling Tonev.
-
It shows how low my standards are after the last few years that I actually think we are doing ok so far.
-
Good crosser my arse.
-
So Garde had to fly to America this week to talk to the owners? Lazy twat Lerner.
-
The players don't seem to have noticed that Gestede isn't playing
-
Reggie Kray looking like he's just been given 30 years.
-
Sanchez terrifies me.
-
Bacuna what the fuck is that. I just can't see us posing a threat
-
Gana after a good start had been disappointing for a while now. A good midfielder in the window is a must.
-
Ref not giving us anything
-
We're doing very well because we're not losing yet. But we don't look remotely like nicking a goal. We need wins now.
-
Gana is playing well. Chris Waddle has described our support as absolutely extrordinary. He has just said Guzman. Oh dear.
-
Well they don't notice him when he is playing. And that goes for the rest of us as well
-
I'd take Sanchez off at half time and put Adama on to try and make something happen out of nothing, feel like that's the only way we'll score.
-
Sanchez either plays good or crap tonight it's looks like the latter
-
Newcastle AA Aston Villa would be a great result today.
-
Evening gentlemen.
I'm starting to suspect that Hutton has signed a contract to be a pundit on Sky Sports soon, the way they've been talking him up today.
-
Westwood you tool!
-
Fucking Westwood!
-
WESTWOOD CAN'T KICK A FUCKING FOOTBALL.
-
Veretout looks the pick again so far
-
The players don't seem to have noticed that Gestede isn't playing
Well they don't notice him when he is playing. And that goes for the rest of us as well.
-
Veretout looks the pick again so far
Agree
-
So Garde had to fly to America this week to talk to the owners? Lazy twat Lerner.
What's wrong with Skype ;)
Lerner not got broadband proberly
-
Evening gentlemen.
I'm starting to suspect that Hutton has signed a contract to be a pundit on Sky Sports soon, the way they've been talking him up today.
He is our best player to be fair. I will let that sink in.
-
You can actually see the individual errors and fuckups from our players the second before they happen.
-
Gueye's passing
Oh my
-
We'l start playing some decent football when we are two down
-
Dear Tom,
Thanks for the fantastic scouting network you, Henrik and Paddy have set up....it really shows.
-
Midfield is shit - giving the ball away so cheaply. Why can't Gil get in front of these clowns?
-
Hutton looks our most promising outlet
-
Lucky there.
-
Half an hour of the dullest football you'll ever watch.
-
They're starting to realise they can commit players forward, because we have no pace whatsoever in midfield on the break.
-
Why is the ref stopping the game.
-
This could be a most unfortunate substitution for us.
-
Get off the pitch you prick
-
You just know what's coming
-
I've seen nothing so far to suggest we're playing to win this game.
-
With that kind of weather, I'm surprised Schteve has not got his brolly out.
-
Sanchez for absolute fuckkkkkkkkkkk sake
-
We only win here when Newcastle have a man sent off
Mitrovic coming on . .
-
For fucks sake Sanchez
-
Half an hour of the dullest football you'll ever watch.
Me and the misus watched 92-93 season review earlier. More action in one game than we've had in 16 or so this year
-
Fucking Sanchez again!!
-
Sanchez could have fucked it up for us there.
-
Hutton looks our most promising outlet
He often does. Shame that there's never, ever, ever anything at the end of it. I'd love to know what evidence is being used by whoever it was that's described him as a good crosser.
-
What the fuck are we playing at??
-
Sanchez: doziest player in Villa history.
-
Hopefully that's the usual Sanchez fuck up over with.
-
This could get abandoned.
-
Sanchez how pathetic. Giving the ball away yet again.....
-
it is a bit Russian Roulette playing Sanchez.
-
Going to watch The Twang after this, very apt my favourite track is 'Reap what you sow'.
Years of under investment you end up with Chicken Bhuna at left back..
-
When Sanchez is playing like this I think you need to get him off the pitch. Absolute liability.
-
Fair play to Hutton's endeavour but he can't cross a ball
-
Half an hour of the dullest football you'll ever watch.
Me and the misus watched 92-93 season review earlier. More action in one game than we've had in 16 or so this year
Not sure I want to know about how much action you & your missus have during a game tbh ;)
-
"Building something special" didn't know Frankenstein's first name was Tom.
-
If I have to say" fucking hell Sanchez"
One more time I'm going to top myself
-
Sanchez - half arsed bag of bollocks
-
We just don't look like scoring. Get adama and Gill on for woodwork and sinclair or sanchez
-
Hutton just drove in a decent cross!
-
It really is like we are playing like we don't want to score.
No presence up front.
No people in the box when we do break.
No one busting a gut to get into the box.
It's an absolute fucking joke.
-
Sanchez is atrocious.
-
Bacuna you fucking tit.
-
Is it just me or do BBCs live text feed go overboard in their criticism of us?
-
Wank again.
-
I can't put into words how much I dislike Bacuna as a footballer. I just….I have no idea what he's supposed to be. He seems to be just not quite good enough at anything.
-
That's it. Over
-
A championship standard right sided midfielder at left back. Hmm
-
When Sanchez is playing like this I think you need to get him off the pitch. Absolute liability.
Collymore almost screaming at him on Talksport.
And there we go, game over, oh well at least I can go and do other things
-
We're so down.
-
Comedy defending yet again
-
That's playground stuff. Pathetic.
-
Fuxake, as soon as I turn it on.
-
Ta ra
-
There you go, game over.
What time does Strictly start?
-
Game over
-
These players do NOT give a fuck.
-
A goal out of the Warley Sunday League.
-
We're are so fucking awful. We should forfeit all our games .
-
Dead.
-
Any chance of fucking jumping for the ball villa. Twice in thirty seconds
-
Fucking terrible. Shambolic defending started by the fucking waste of space that is Bacuna.
-
Rubbish defending. Lescott left his man.
-
Terrible defending!
-
fucking useless.
and that's why we're going down.
-
And so it starts....
-
Season over
-
We need this game abandoned. And Sanchez sounds woeful today.
-
Lescott is fucking useless.
-
Is it just me or do BBCs live text feed go overboard in their criticism of us?
Is it actually possible to go overboard in criticism of us?!
-
Oh I say, that's just absolutely awful from Lescott.
Not even sure I can be bothered to watch the rest of this.
-
Best result we can get here is abandoned.
-
Rain dance needed
-
What is lescott doing there
-
Its just one! Come on lads! We need to do this!
-
We really are plumbing the depths of shiteness.
-
Feeble Westwood
-
Westwood
You are shit
Garde you have a problem if you think he is good
He's championship
-
I can't put into words how much I dislike Bacuna as a footballer. I just….I have no idea what he's supposed to be. He seems to be just not quite good enough at anything.
To be fair, that could apply to so many of our wankers.
-
It really is our turn to take the stick from them. Let's not be as graceless as they were at the time.
-
You know this could get abandoned. That ball isn't moving much on some parts of the pitch
-
This pitch is shocking.
-
Well played Hutton our only decent player on the pitch.
-
Why didn't Veretout dive then?
-
I did not think that we could concede a goal to such a poor team, but we did it. Guzan would concede a goal even to my cat.
-
Starts from the front. Ayew and Sinclair happy to stroll around when they had the ball, no fucking pressure, no effort, nothing.
Sanchez has been fucking abysmal. These players ain't even busting a gut.
Fucking mercenaries the lot of em.
-
Westwood
You are shit
Garde you have a problem if you think he is good
He's championship
Be a key player next season then.
-
A number of our players have really suspect technique. Bacuna is terrible.
-
This could well get abandoned by the look of it.
-
You know this could get abandoned. That ball isn't moving much on some parts of the pitch
Our "tears of god" moment?
-
Abandon the game.
-
We actually don't look too bad box to box but we are absolute garbage in both penalty areas.
-
Westwood
You are shit
Garde you have a problem if you think he is good
He's championship
We ARE championship
-
Hutton has just slid faster than Westwood's shot!
-
This team would seriously struggle in the Championship.
-
If it keeps raining like this the game is off I think
-
I like Hutton there I have said it.
-
Westwood
You are shit
Garde you have a problem if you think he is good
He's championship
We ARE championship
We're not that good
-
I like Hutton there I have said it.
I do too. He's limited but he gives it everything every week, which is more than you can say for most of the shower.
-
I like Hutton too. But his crossing is just so bad he spoils all his determined runs
-
Oh fuck off Sinclair!
-
At least Hutton is "trying"....I see little from anyone else.
-
Our main problem is that we just make it so easy to score against us, no matter how shit you are, we just invite goals.
We might as well totally fucking go for it now, because if it just meanders on like this, we're ending the day on 6 points.
-
I like Hutton also
-
We need the game abandoned or defensive blunder to get something out of this
-
I like Hutton there I have said it.
So do I. At least he looks like he gives a shit. As opposed to the majority of the rest who are just shit.
-
This pitch is seriously limiting the play!!
-
Abandon it, Strictly is on at 6.35.
-
Criminal keeping from Guzan for the goal. God I despise seeing him in our team.
-
What a shambolic team they have assembled. There is zero ability and commitment they look like rabbits in the headlights. Bacuna has no one to throw the ball to ffs even a Sunday league team move! What is the point of vertout. Garbage
-
This pitch is seriously limiting the play!!
I think it's added to the spectacle.
-
Only hope is it gets called off due to the rain
-
It really is our turn to take the stick from them. Let's not be as graceless as they were at the time.
They really are a precious bunch aren't they? Rather than a couple of banners, they make it sound that the whole of Villa Park and everyone in the streets outside the ground were pointing at them laughing.
-
Why not drive that free kick low across the surface?
-
We'll go 2-1 up and then it will be abandoned.
-
Adama and Gil to start the second half, please.
-
We'll go 2-1 up and then it will be abandoned.
Hahaha, us scoring twice. Sure we will
-
Bacuna hits the tamest free kick of the season.
*rolls eyes*
-
I don't think we have actually played all that badly, but you just know with this defence we are going to have to score at least 2 to have a chance.
-
Fucking awful.
-
Absolute garbage.
-
Fucking hell. Just try a cross. What awfulness.
I can almost not bear to watch it. Not out of pain or embarrassment or wounded pride, but just out of pity.
-
Terrible, terrible, terrible.
-
Listening to Collymore on Talksport commentary hilarious about Sanchez."What is his purpose all he does is give the ball away"
-
We have to see a full half from Traore now. We have got to go all out.
-
We have to win this game, so we have to get Gil and Adama on asap.
-
I would honestly get Traore and Gestede on now and go for broke. Sinclair off and Sanchez.
-
The Greatest Pile of shit ever to wear the famous claret and blue.
-
Can't make up my mind if it's worth bringing Adama on this pitch. Would it nullify him completely, or could he do something on it? Simply haven't seen enough of him to tell (which tells its own story I s'pose).
-
First goal in five years for that defender of theirs.
How about we break a record and actually win a fucking game.
-
When was the last time anybody enjoyed a villa game apart from the opposition? Its a duty to watch this team but there's no pleasure whatsoever. The likes of Frank and co who follow them everywhere totally deserve acclaim because they get sod all back for it. Two poor poor sides but naturally one can still do enough to score and its not us
-
we need events of biblical proportions to save us now
floods haven't helped
neither did that fkn plague of frogs
-
There is no hope.
-
I'm afraid that didn't work Remi. Westwood pointless not a clue what his job was. Time to go for it as they are no better than we are
-
"The pitch isn't conducive to good football, then again it never is for Aston Villa"
-
Merry bastard Christmas!! Absolute tripe again! I'm off to the fridge to get mullered!
-
I just cannot put into words how thoroughly pissed off I am watching this absolute shite.
Why can't they see they need to play with more pace.
Why can't they see they need to show more passion and desire.
What can't Sinclair EVER risk getting hurt by going in for a challenge or attacking a cross.
Why does every game see the opposition defence have an absolute cakewalk, piece of piss easy game.
Just why?
-
Well that was rubbish.
-
Absolute garbage. And I have to say Garde is looking like he's just as clueless as Sherwood to be honest. The line up today is absolute Blues.
-
Relegated before Christmas. Dear. Oh. Dear.
-
I don't want to worry you all but we haven't won in 28 games after being behind at Half Time.
-
We've got to take Sanchez off.
He's like some sort of random number generator hooked up to a robot leg, sending the ball in a randomly selected direction every time it comes near him. Gives it away so much.
-
Lescott is an astonishingly bad defender.
-
Get Sinclair and Westwood off. We need to at least look like scoring if we want anything from this game and right now an own goal is our biggest hope. Their defence looks well dodgy but we're doing nothing to test it.
Time for Gil and Adama. Not sure the pitch will suit their talents but we at least have to try something.
-
I don't normally join the hyperbole but for a must win game that was shocking. Not committed enough and certainly not organised enough. It's also not working at all upfront. Sinclair has had far too much game time for me this season given his performances
Sanchez and Sinclair for Gil and Adama. We haven't got much to lose have we?
-
I'm starting to despise my addiction to the Villa. It's twisted my joy of the game in general so i can't face watching any other games but our own. I know the final score is going to be in Newcastle's favour yet i'll watch the second half in all its impotent grimness because i can't bring myself to walking away from this.
It's come to doing a rain dance in the front room. Oh Villa, one day, one day, we will remember what we are.
-
What is Wilkins wittering on about?
-
Traore on from START of 2nd half, not with 2 minutes to go.
-
Ok. Can't do anything currently about having shit players.
Why is garde playing 4 nearly identical sideways passing midfielders so that they are getting in each other's way. What's their outball supposed to be? How is he hoping that they will score a goal? At the moment it's Hutton creating everything. Again. If we had a couple of players getting in the box, with a couple of midfielders trying to keep up, some of those crosses might create something, but hey can't be arsed.
-
We've got to take Sanchez off.
He's like some sort of random number generator hooked up to a robot leg, sending the ball in a randomly selected direction every time it comes near him. Gives it away so much.
He's actually making me pine for NRC. At least we'd get some solid huddles and pointing thrown in.
-
The goal was my fault. I turned the TV on just as they took the corner.
Full respect for anyone who's made that journey on this weekend to watch that in this weather.
There can only be a few records left to break now.
Earliest a team has been relegated.
12 months without a league win.
A season without a home league win.
Fewest goals scored in a season.
Worst goal difference ever.
-
It doesn't matter who we buy, who is selected, who manages the team, where we play.. We are just an awful football club at the moment.
Here's to better luck in the second half :-\
-
Absolute garbage. And I have to say Garde is looking like he's just as clueless as Sherwood to be honest. The line up today is absolute Blues.
I have to agree. Many of of think we are already gone. He should be taking the game to the opposition.
-
Sinclair and Westwood off.
We either go for this or we just roll over and die.
Still, we're building "something special" according to Stevie Wonder, our wonderful CEO.
-
Every one suggesting we take Westwood, Sinclair,Lescott Bacuna off, it's that bad.
-
What is Wilkins wittering on about?
Honestly the only thing he should be saying is "I apologise for my part in bringing Aston Villa to this." He can then just chat about the weather or whatever. He has no business in any way saying anything else about our club.
-
I'm starting to despise my addiction to the Villa. It's twisted my joy of the game in general so i can't face watching any other games but our own. I know the final score is going to be in Newcastle's favour yet i'll watch the second half in all its impotent grimness because i can't bring myself to walking away from this.
It's come to doing a rain dance in the front room. Oh Villa, one day, one day, we will remember what we are.
I reached that point about two months ago. I basically don't think about villa except when we're playing. I'm honestly so much happier as a result. Call me uncommitted perhaps. But I've followed villa for over 25 years and I just can't face devoting that much of by energy on them at the moment. Too many other things in life
-
It is annoying me that our plan seems to be contain and then nick one. Fucking go for the win from the off.
-
Why not drive that free kick low across the surface?
That would have been too obvious - striking it tamely straight at the keeper at waist level had that element of surprise about it.
-
We are shit, they are shit. Sit and try and defend is such a poor tactic.
Adams, gil and grealish on. Take any of the shite off. (Start withpointy bastard)
-
I want to see Jack and Traore on this pitch against their defenders. It's our only way back.
-
Traore on from START of 2nd half, not with 2 minutes to go.
On this pitch, I suspect Traore's attributes will be nullified.
-
I refuse to get a hair cut till Villa Win....my barber better get himself a paper round as back up.
-
Crap defending for the goal, but why don't we put a player on the post for flip's sake, would have stopped the goal.
-
Not that it mitigates anything, but was that goal offside? Hard to see if any Villa players were goalside of the bloke standing in front of Guzan as Coloccini shot.
45 minutes of puke.
-
I think we need to take Westwood, Sanchez and Bacuna off.
And not bother bringing anyone else on in their place. It won't change much.
-
I'm sick of Hutton being our only outlet, running like a dog chasing a bone down the wing and having no one to cross to. And to think he's been probably our best player.
Dear, dear, dear me.
I've fully reached the acceptance point of grieving the inevitable relegation. Just get it over and done with.
-
I want to see Jack and Traore on this pitch against their defenders. It's our only way back.
totally
-
Westwood and Sanchez should never play for us again. Garbage
-
Relegated before Christmas. Dear. Oh. Dear.
Talksport predicted that about 6 weeks ago.
-
It is annoying me that our plan seems to be contain and then nick one. Fucking go for the win from the off.
It reveals just how bad things are. Garde must have felt we'd have left too exposed by playing too far up. I hated the line up because it's exactly the conservative approach that has landed us where we are this season.
-
I think our problems are illustrated by the fact we've named about 6 players who need to be subbed.

I cant wait to see what our 'transfer panel' have managed to line up for us in the window, given what we are currently being treated to. I'm struggling to get my head around Toms claim that "we are building something special"
-
We are utter garbage.Where do you start? Their goal was a fucking omnishambles.Goodbye top flight football. It was good while it lasted.
-

Well it would be 11 but our bench isn't big enough.

The US feed I am watching just said if the game get to 70 mins and is then abandoned, the result sticks!
That's not right is it?

I like your thinking,
-
I was expecting a bit more from Garde, not the reincarnation of Lambert mk11
-
Another Saturday evening of getting told off for swearing and snapping at my poor kids for no reason.
Fuck this.
-
Sinclair is shit as well. He will be home soon banging his celebrity gf up the ass , i never see him bang any goals in he just does fuck all.
Westwood, sinclair ,bacuna,gana and lescott are useless, hutton tries but his final ball is rubbish.
How gil doesnt start or adama get more than five minutes, how can he be worse then some of this shite.
-
They are back out and there are NO changes.
-
Traore on from START of 2nd half, not with 2 minutes to go.
On this pitch, I suspect Traore's attributes will be nullified.
Brian Laudrup's just said you can't play it too much on the deck on a pitch like this and any run like the one Hutton made that ended Veretout's free-kick are a pure lottery.
The only way to play is with someone like Andy Carroll. We've got Gestede, but he's not the same quality.
Too f##king right he's not.
-
I just realized that I will save a bit of money with us going down. Don't need to get the expanded sports package to get all PL games. Instead just subscribe to Bein Sports and get to watch the Championship. They are showing Ipswich - Derby highlights right now.

To be fair, he didn't say "we are building something special" in a good way. Maybe he meant we're building something so bad, breaking every negative record in existence, something that the football world will talk about for years to come
-
The team set up is pure Alex McLeish. Let's not lose by too many goals.
-
What did he just say? - "2 years since we came back from 1-0 at half-time"?!
-
Stop the season, I want to get off.
-
Nice shot from Veretout
-
Wow. Two years since we came from a goal down to even get a point? That's just not right at all is it? What about QPR last season?
-
The US feed I am watching just said if the game get to 70 mins and is then abandoned, the result sticks!

No

That is a rule the introduced this season for Villa games as it was acknowledged we have no chance of coming back into it from that point on.

Great isn't it.

Veretout is by far the best of our players

Yep. Good player. And frozen out and lambasted by Sherwood for standing up to him in training. Shame.
-
We need to bring in Captain Nemo

Brilliant. Back to the old western in space, gang of rogues feel. And doesn't feel like half the film is a cartoon like the prequels
-
Fucking Sinclair may as well just pass the ball to defenders, rather than constantly let the defenders just take it off him
-

Irrespective of our crap performance, that is the most disappointing thing of all
-

The pitch beat him.
-
We are looking so much better this half. We simply have to score
-
I mean adama could get a penalty on this pitch
-
We've been watching the old films for the last week and I very nearly blew out this game to get an early start on Return of the Jedi.
-
We need to bring in Captain Nemo
Jacques Cousteau would be good sitting deep.

No subs is criminal.
-

McLeish had no excuse whatsoever. NONE.
Garde can be cut a little slack at least for another month.

We're having our customary brief spell of pressure now.

Super story, excellent acting, and the special effects are superb and very well thought out. You can clearly see similarities between how JJ Abrams did Star Trek in this film
-
Barcodes torpedoed us in the first half.
-
We only start playing after going one down. Huff and puff..... But you still know they will score again before we do. No subs is criminal.
-
We need more threat which either means Gestede or a Gil / grealish / Adama sub
Sinclair is offering nothing at all
-
Can I add Ayew is shit to the list?
-
We don't have any cutting edge.
-

Just got back from seeing it. 10/10
The whole cinema clapped at the end
-
I think Ayew is several cuts above Sinclair today
-
Can I add Ayew is shit to the list?
Is there anyone left not on the list ?
-
If we don't make a sub soon that's a Wookie mistake
-
Ayew did well there
-
andre ayew,alexis sanchez and we still wouldn't fkn win
but with Vivienne westwood, hmmmmm
you never know
-
How many fuckin crosses are we putting in today with no big man to head them - so frustrating.
-
Well played, Ayew.
-
I think Ayew is a pretty good player to be honest. He, Veretout, Gueye, Okore all look alright I think.
The rest though……..yeesh.
-
Westwood fuck
Sinclair fuck off
-
Can I add Ayew is shit to the list?
Is there anyone left not on the list ?
Okore Veretout
-
Ayew looking like our best player again but nobody is up with him or near him.
-
Veretout is a New Hope.
-
That was the most shocking bit of defending I have seen all season.
-
That should have been 2-0
-
How he miss
-
That is some seriously shocking defending. Again.
-
We are fucking horrific at the back
-
Sanchez looking better
-
What the hell were the defence doing there - they just stopped?!? Should have been 2 down
-
It isn't that we don't have good players - we do have some.
The problem is that the areas of the pitch where we are forced to play shit players, we are so utterly shit it drags the rest of them down.
-
They're bringing a good player on now.
-
Fookin defending there!! Jesus.
-
Where's Grealish having his piss up tonight????
Has to be more interesting than this crap.
-
The shooting accuracy of a storm trooper from de Jong there
-
Gestede coming on apparently.
-
Bring a sub on NOWWWWWWWWWW
-
Jeez fucking Lino! No reason to stop playing tho
-
Newcastle can afford to miss chances like that against us.
-
Jeez.
-
And Sinclair off
-
Get Sinclair off FFS
-
Are we worse than under Lambert or was it just that Bentekes single handely kept us up? I can't believe how much worse we are this season to last and we were bad for most of that.
-
You watch constant long ball now.
-
Ref is really not giving us anything.
-
Newcastle can afford to miss chances like that against us.
claps
-
It isn't that we don't have good players - we do have some.
The problem is that the areas of the pitch where we are forced to play shit players, we are so utterly shit it drags the rest of them down.
That'll be defence,midfield and attack then.

We're so shit it's unbelievable.
-
It isn't that we don't have good players - we do have some.

Exactly this. Most teams get away with carrying one or two maybe who aren't up to scratch. For us, the bulk of the team is poor, with a few good players scattered throughout.
Combine that with a complete void of confidence and belief and, well…..what can you do?
-
Johnny Vaughan appears to be on fourth official duty this evening.
-
Come on now big chance.
-
Gestade header on target. First since vs blues?
-
Benteke, Delph, vlaar. It was the spine of a shit team.
-
Can't you hear the Villa fans telling you Remi get Traore on!
-
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL
-
What a fucking goal!
-
You beauty!
-
Good God
-
Here we fucking go
-
Get the fucking fuck in!!!!
-
What a great goal Ayewwwww.
-
WHAT A FUCKING GOAL!!!!!!!!! AYYEEEEWWWW
-
What a goal
-
I'll be happy to see Sinclair never play for us again. Spineless tosser.
-
What a screamer. He's officially off the list. Worth watching the game just for that.
-
gwet in son. fucking YES
-
Hello?
-
Who scored? Stream's frozen.
-
Absolute class.
-
It isn't that we don't have good players - we do have some.
The problem is that the areas of the pitch where we are forced to play shit players, we are so utterly shit it drags the rest of them down.
I don't actually think we have any decent players at all really. The forwards are all woeful to a man. From that funt ****** Gabby, to the laughably dire Gestede, to non-strikers like Ayew and Sinclair. Westwood is crap, so is Sanchez, and Gana and Veretout look average at best. And the defensive unit, including that wanker Guzan is horrible.
-
Fucking great GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
-
What a Bloody great GOAL!
-
What a fuckin' goal! Superb. Now let's have them.
-
Ayew is the only player I currently like.
-
Nice one son!
-
Fucking yes! Our best player by a mile.
-
Can I add Ayew is shit to the list?
You were saying?
-
A disturbance in the force!
-
Fuck the bed! That is a bit tasty.

Yes, non strikers like Ayew :P
-
Is this where we go and chuck it away now.
-
Adama for westwood now .go for the kill
-
Half an hour to fucking win this
-
get in. what a strike.
-
Good boy, I like!
-
Newcastle have been dire in this game really ought to go and win this.
-
Can I add Ayew is shit to the list?
You were saying?
Can I take him off the list?
-
Really good goal that, just what we needed. Another just like it would very welcome
-
This actually might not be a bad game for Gestede to be involved in
-
And what a great reaction to the goal from Ayew. Back to the half way line to get on with it.
-
We got like 3 players...Okore, Veretout and Ayew. Is it enough to win this game?
-
COME ON YOU VILLA BOYSSSSSSSSSSS!
-
30 mins to save the season.
-
Fuck me how have we not scored again. We are all over Newcastle
-
We can fucking win this
-
say it quietly, in fact lets none of us say it, but we might just might just
-
Squeaky bum time for the Toon?
-
Shit - should have had a second
-
I love ayew
-
I like ayew
-
Ayew is fucking on fire
-
I love Ayew.
-
Gestede should have scored there!
-
What is this "goal" thing people keep referring too??.......
-
ARGHHH CLOSER THAN CLOSE
-
Get Adama on. Now.
-
Ayew our last best hope!
-
Listening to the game on WM in the car. What a difference a sub makes.
-
We need to go for it. No point holding back
Fear is the path to the dark side…fear leads to anger…anger leads to hate…hate leads to suffering.
-
Get Adama on. Now.
Yep right time
-
Aye, Ayew is absolutely fizzing.
-
Get Adama on right now
-
Gestede is winning headers and laying them off, as well!
-
Get stuck in rudy
-
What a strange feeling.
-
Much better!
-
Only danger here is we get knackered with this pitch because we have done all the running.
-
Gestede reminds me of Tree beard from lord of the rings
-
Ok Ayew is looking v good now
-
Effort and commitment at last
-
Veretout, Ayew, Sanchez and Gana look like different players this half - decent.
-
God why the fuck doesnt one drop for us ever
-
Adama time surely
-
Ayew looks world class
-
Another great opportunity. Ayew is murdering Collocini
-
Remi laid the baguette on them at half time
-
Ohhhh should have done better
-
Come on me babies.
-
cmon 20mins to go
-
Ayew has Collocini on toast
-
We're alive.
-
Gestede was so on his heels when Ayew got around coloccinni there
-
I think we need to abandon this "keep it tight for the first half and attack later on" approach. Just play our natural game right from the off instead, and see how it goes.
-
I can see why we haven't brought on Adama because we look quite balanced right now. That said I'd love to see him run through the middle at their defence.
-
C'mon Villa, let's have some false hope for Christmas!
-
TBH, Gestede looks like a proper CF today.
-
Just win a game villa. All you gotta do.
-
We all know Newcastle are gonna score tho right?
-
I can see why we haven't brought on Adama because we look quite balanced right now. That said I'd love to see him run through the middle at their defence.
I don;t know if this is the pitch/weather/conditions for Traore, to be honest.
-
No way should Veretout and Ayew be bottom of the league.
-
Got away with one there
-
Traoré gives the ball away all the time.
-
Another let off
-
No way should Veretout and Ayew be bottom of the league.
And to think Veretout chose us over Leicester...
-
Get Adama running in the box and who knows, in this weather, we might cadge a penalty.
-
Phew - another let-off.
-
A point is no good. Kitchen bloody sink time.
-
Fuck me that was a good break and the pitch killed it
-
Fucking hell that was a chance. One of these will go in surely. Really bad marking in the box from us again
I know what people are saying about Adama but he's fast as fuck and they're struggling when we run at them
-
Why is that Thauvin challenge not a yellow card?!
-
C'mon Villa, let's have some false hope for Christmas!
A win and some false hope would do me nicely!
-
Best performance since Liverpool semi?
-
Excellent work from Bacuna.
-
Come on villa
-
Did the Newcastle player get a yellow just?
-
I can see why we haven't brought on Adama because we look quite balanced right now. That said I'd love to see him run through the middle at their defence.
Yup, I'm struggling to see who we'd take off right now.
-
A foul by them, a free kick. A foul by us, a yellow card. Atkinson you tosser.
-
I thought Bacuna has already been booked?
-
GET ADAMA ON
-
Come on Villa.
-
Traore would rip em apart atm
-
The balance is working but we need goals and we've not created many chances. The goal was from nowhere
Adama for Westwood for me
-
GET ADAMA ON
Stop using caps, I thought we scored
-
Stupid from Jordan.
-
Stupid booking
-
Martin Twatkinson as usual
-
Get that fast bloke on. Run at them like British bulldog.
-
We need to give them an extra dimension to worry about. Get Adama on.
-
I think Martin Tyler is the best commentator out there, but he does sound like he's rooting for Newcastle ...
-
Ducking hell ref you sack of shit
-
Traore would rip em apart atm
Fit him with an outboard motor and we're in business
-
Terrific game of football
-
I am starting to feel physically sick.
-
Yeah get the ball in behind their defence, it will stick in the rain, and get Adama and Ayew running at them
-
Get Adama on. They are committing forward. He would have afield day
-
A fitting 1970s style pitch and game for Jimmy Hill.
-
Shiiite ... nerve-shredding
-
Thauvin is hurting us. Adama on that side would give him completely free rein.
-
I am starting to feel physically sick.
This
-
Thauvin is really causing problems now
We're not dangerous enough on the break as Ayew is the only one with pace
-
You know what's going to happen don't you.
-
It's so open get Adama on.
-
I just have a bad feeling
-
We're starting to look a little tired now. The referee is starting to give them everything now as well.
-
They bring a winger on who is able to take some pressure off their team.
Why aren't we??.?.
-
I have had one large rum per goal so far.
-
Veretout has gone off the ball. Tired?
-
Make the sub FFS
-
When did we last get last minute winner?
-
Come on.....
-
They're definitely gonna score
-
When did we last get last minute winner?
Benteke's pen against the Bitters last season?
-
When did we last get last minute winner?
In black and white
-
One eyed c**t
-
Westwood wanker
-
They're definitely gonna score
Fuck them. We need to win this.
-
Please score.
-
If there is a way to lose it we will probably find it.
-
Starting to look knackered now.
-
A point isn't that much better than a loss where we are.
-
Lescott has been brilliant, fair play to him.
-
When did we last get last minute winner?
West Brom at home last season ?
-
A points no good here for me. It's just about acceptable but that's it
Looks like we may be digging in tho. We can't get out
-
Okore has looked good, actually.
-
Sanchez: different player in the 2nd half; much more assured.

A point is nowhere near enough
-
Gueye has been so poor.
-
We never score from corners.
-
Ayew man of the match by a country mile.
-
Ge it on Rudys napper.
-
A point isn't that much better than a loss where we are.
Yes, it is obviously.
-
Close rudy
-
Fuck me Gestede so close
-
No subs. Stupid fucker.
-
Ohhh thought that was in!
-
I do like okore. But I think he needs someone with good positional sense alongside him. Lescott has fallen into that trap of backing off a man when he's being run at
Ayew has been bloody wonderful
-
A point isn't that much better than a loss where we are.
Yes, it is obviously.
Indeed psychologically if nothing else
-
good corner, at last!
-
Shit shit shit we need 3 points.
-
Great Gestede is fcuked.
-
Collocini played the man there! - should have been a foul.
-
Martin Tyler really is a pseudo Geordie twat.
-
Fuck. It's either going to be elation of heartbreak
-
Collocini played the man there! - should have been a foul.
Don't worry he's not Hazard
-
Just win a game villa! Would be a start
-
Fucking hell Newcastle have had some chances
-
I can't help but feel that we have fucked up and missed the chance to win this.
Adama 15 mins ago when we were dominating could have run riot.
Garde should have been much,much braver.
-
Fucking hell Newcastle have had some chances
Indeed! let-off again.
-
Sanchez passing. Jesus
That's the third really good chance this second half
We've done v well second half but if we keep being this bad at the back we just can't stay up. It's so easy to cut through us
-
Fuck, we reached our high tide and didnt use it :(
-
Some urgency guys ...

I really doubt this pitch would have been much use for Traore's style of direct running.
-
Is there a rule that says Newcastle players can't be booked at home.?
-
Playing for the point now.
-
What the fuck was that from Sanchez.
-
What's with this "Jestede" pronunciation?
-
Get it in the mixer you fucking douche bags
-
What the fuck was that from Sanchez.
Fine him every time he shoots.
-
I suspect he thought the defence needed midfield protection. You lose that with Traore
-
FUCKING HELL SANCHEZ. What a fucking waste.
-
Playing for the point now.
Basic addition not Remi's strong point perhaps.
-
What the fuck was that from Sanchez.
Jeez!!
-
What's with this "Jestede" pronunciation?
Well that's how you say it.
-
Well, there it is. We didn;t lose. Not awful.
-
Still would have preferred adama for a bit, especially on this pitch with his pace
Ayew was outstanding
-
What's with this "Jestede" pronunciation?
He's French - that's how they say it
-
Sanchez is toss.
-
GODDAMMIT
-
Point isnt good enough but keeps them close
-
Point isn't too bad but we need 7 from the next three games.
