Are you watching/listening Mr Shin or do you need Sox Sports News reports? That is, if my typing is fast enough to keep up with the goals going in
-
City subs: Subs: Caballero, Zabaleta, Mangala, Kolarov, M.Garcia, Sterling, Iheanacho
-
It was a pleasant sunny morning in Mudchester but chuffing hell, it's cold now
-
Are you watching/listening Mr Shin or do you need Sox Sports News reports? That is, if my typing is fast enough to keep up with the goals going in
I'll listen assuming it's on the wireless.
-
We're fucked.
-
Least there is no Bacuna
-
Subs: Okore, Bacuna, Sinclair, Gil, Bunn, Lyden, Gestede.
-
"Could the yellow team leader please contact the event control room"........thought that I'd better post that here because the message has been played over the tannoy a few times
EDIT - they now want the Green Team Leader
-
No Okore again!
Hopefully Veretout can take his opportunity in the 3,and we will be spared the other "options" in the final death march of the season.

Its the main game on 5-Live
-
Looking at our midfield line up depresses the shit out of me.
I'm off to hide under the bed till it's all over.
-
Cheers Spangley.
-
What's Okore done wrong??
-
Rubbish selection.
-
We'll be fucked by the fuckers.
-
I'll be in the pub watching it. At least I have beer.
-
What's Okore done wrong??
Signed for Aston Villa.
-
This might sound a really primitive thing to say but we really have to buy some taller players.
-
Better. Fitter. Stronger. Faster.
-
We've got some crap players in that starting line up, and the rest are just poor.
-
Westwood. No. No. No. Why? What is it with our managers and picking him? What a shit bastard waste of a shirt. We lose because we start with 6 or 7 players. Of that line up, I like 3 players-Gueye, Veretout, Ayew.
I'd have played Gestede with Ayew off him. They looked decent together in the week. Gabby can fuck off. Can't him and Westwood pick up some knocks? That's be almost as good as drawing.
-
City subs: Subs: Caballero, Zabaleta, Mangala, Kolarov, M.Garcia, Sterling, Iheanacho
Can't we just play against those seven instead? We might nick a draw against them.
-
Rubbish selection.
I agree, mate. That was exactly my first thought. And why I cannot support Garde any longer. He is rubbish.
-
Soccer Saturday panel in making salient point about the Villa shock! Not only did they slaughter the players for the stuff coming out about not liking Remi's training methods, they asked how come Remi keeps playing the exact same players who have been continually letting him down. 'Why not play some of the kids,' they chimed. 'They can't do any worse now can they?'
-
I'd take a 2-0 defeat now. Seriously.
-
3-0 will be a respectable result for us.
-
What time is Aguero scoring their first? I'm going for 7 minutes.
-
We'll be lucky to get nil
-
Probably worth sticking a tenner on Man City to score in the first 15 minutes?
-
Man City to score within five minutes. It'll be three-nil by the half hour. If we can hold it down to six by full time we'll be smothered in glory.
-
Has the snake dipped his tail in something caustic?
I wonder what team he'll be selecting when it's mathematically proven
-
If we concede early I really do worry for us.

These are the players who got Villa into this mess, so they should be the ones who suffer the indignity of being on the pitch as relegation approaches. Why play the kids and have them be associated with this debacle
-
I'd be starting to give some of them a run out, just to see how they do and if they show potential. Not a game like this admittedly where it's likely we'll take a tonking.

Any of the kids who are thought to be able to play a part for us next season should be going out on loan to Championship clubs now to get a taste of the level they're going to play at.
-

If we don't concede early I really do worry for us.
-
Hey ho, here we go again, I salute all Villa fans who are there, in pub already!!
-
Would have played Sinclair instead of Gabby.
-
One of the City subs had the first name 'Man U'
-
If we can just see out the first 5 minutes there will be a moral victory of sorts.
The only shock is not seeing Bacuna start. Same shit, different day.
-
The pre match videos are cringeworthy

They're employed by Aston Villa. We're all associated with this debacle whether we like it or not. And while I wouldn't want to expose five or six of them to a thrashing or a poisonous VP, like everybody else I'm sick of seeing Guzan, Gabby, Westwood, Bacuna, coming back in/being selected every week...and doing absolutely fuck all. Playing a couple of youngsters and maybe bringing one or two on from the bench would give us all a bit of a lift and give them some experience about the step up they're going to face next season.
-

Manu Chao?
-
Here comes the pain.
-
Masochist that I am I just looked at the league table and realised that the maximum number of points we can get this season is 46. And if every other side lost every game* the highest we can finish is 6th on GD. As the weeks go by now it's going to get lower and lower until the inevitable.
*Not allowing for sides playing each other and factual things like that. Mainly because even i'm not sad enough to try and work that out.
-
Come on boys!!!!!
-
The wireless is on. I wonder for how long.
-
We touched the ball.
-
Citeh have lost 3 league games on the spin for the time since 2008. So we know what will happen today.
-
Surely a yellow? A blatant foul by Kompany.
-
Here we go, you never know...
-
Kompany should be booked early on for that. Song did it all game at West Ham and didn't get a card til late on - need to stamp it out early
-
That was a blatant yellow card ffs.
-
Quality pointing by Westwood there
-
Cornalty
-
Good save by Guzan apparently.
-
Great tackle Lescott
-
This is incredible. We've gone a full ten minutes without conceding. Oh, the glory of it.
-
We've survived 10 mins, they should give us a point for that.
-
Listening to AVTV can hardly hear Gary Thompson.
-
We haven't conceded yet! Let's all have a disco etc
-
Excellent reflex save from Guzan
-
12 minutes. Come on!
-
Hart has to make a save!
-
And then Bony misses.
-
Everton 1 up.
-
Terrible/great miss Bony
-
Terrible/great miss Bony
Shocking defending. Who'd a thought?
-
They'll be talking about this for years. They'll make stained glass windows of it. The time we went fifteen minutes without conceding a goal at Man City.
-
Have we reached the "it's only a matter of time..." moment?
-
Another decent Guzan save.
-
Listening to the game...80-20 City possesion. Sounds like 90 min of collective punishment.
-
Any bets on who will make the monumentally bonehead mistake?
-
2nd good save Guzan
-
Any bets on who will make the monumentally bonehead mistake?
Bacuna. He's not on the pitch but somehow he'll manage it.
-
This is absolutely classic Villa.
Start relatively well, look almost competent for a while, pass the ball around a bit when we can, but never really threaten.
In the next 20 mins or so, maybe just before half time, someone will make a monumental, parks football style mistake, we'll concede, and fall to pieces, losing by three goals at least.
-
When they invented the term "one way traffic" this is what they meant.
-
FFS Gabby - shit pass
-
Gabby is such a pointless, lazy fat shit. I hate him. Get him off
-
Guzan kicks straight out of play
-
Couldn't we just agree to let them score their four goals in the first five minutes and do away with this unnecessary pantomime?
-
Guzan kicks straight out of play
Well it's better than behind him from a goal kick or straight to Aguero
-
Quarter of a game without conceding. Yay
-

We've had 19% possession, we're not doing much of this passing malarky.
-
We really can't pass can't we
-
Have we reached the "it's only a matter of time..." moment?
Yes 20 minutes ago.
-
Honestly opponents can take a week off training in preparation for a game against us. Just stay alert for 15 minutes and then dominate the remaining 85.
-
Passing? We'll pass on that, thanks.
-
I've just bought tickets to see The Stranglers in Cardiff on 18th March. Thought I'd try to take my mind off the relentless misery on the pitch.
-
Ayew has a decent effort.
-
We really can't pass can't we
Lescott, Clark, Hutton, Cissokho, Gueye, Gabby, Westwood are all terrible on the ball.
-
Fuck me! I hadn't realised that Flabby Onegoalayear was 'playing'.
-
We done a shoot.
-
Cissokho is so uncomfortable on the ball it is literally gobsmacking he made it to be a professional footballer
-
My favourite thing so far is the commentator shouting AguerrRRO with absolute confidence that he'll score as he puts it wide.
Good effort Ayew.
-
We done a shoot.
In the right direction?
-
Can't be arsed with watching the last twitching of this rotting zombie club.
Off to bed, hopefully no nightmares, this is more than enough.
-
We done a shoot.
In the right direction?
Sorry, I don't understand the question.
-
Bournemouth winning at Newcastle.
-
Fuck me! I hadn't realised that Flabby Onegoalayear was 'playing'.
Flabby Onegoalayear - love it!
-
Bournemouth winning at Newcastle.
I'm watching that match. Stephen Taylor spunking one into their own net.
Newcastle are terrible. They're defensively almost as comedic as we are.
-
Half an hour! Half a fucking hour!! This gets better and better
-
Gruyere is playing well. Veretout is shit though at the moment
-
Half an hour! Half a fucking hour!! This gets better and better
I'm going to have a son so I can tattoo this great achievement on his face.
-
Half an hour! Half a fucking hour!! This gets better and better
I was just thinking that. And a decent shot on target too.
-
Good to see Newcastle's investment paying off for them. How did they get worse after spending £30m
-
Is Westwood really on the pitch? Commentator hasnt mentioned his name yet... not even for his regular sideways stat-pass.
-
Doug's taken his glasses off.We look better straight away!
-
whats so annoying is just two wins and we back in with a shout. I just don't think these players are good enough or care enough to do owt about it
-
Good to see Newcastle's investment paying off for them. How did they get worse after spending £30m
We got worse after spending 50...
-
Hi all..!
Just joining in now - found a live stream and it's sooooo quiet there. I don't think there's anyone expecting any sort of excitement...
-
Remember when Randy put that statement out praising our magnificent achievement of a goalless draw at home to Southampton?
He's going to be commissioning art works celebrating 36 minutes without conceding at Man City.
-
Every time we have the sniff of a break we slow the play, pass backwards and the potential has gone.
-
...How shit must you be it's only nil nil...
Shouldn't have said that should I?
I'll get my coat.
-
Bournemouth winning at Newcastle.
The fact that we have taken about 5pts from the last 20 odd, and are no further from safety than we were about 6 weeks ago is what is really annoying about not buying a decent forward.
-
We are staying up......we are staying up.
-
Is Westwood really on the pitch? Commentator hasnt mentioned his name yet... not even for his regular sideways stat-pass.
Yeah - definitely saw him pointing earlier. The reason the commentator doesn't mention him is when he gets the ball he does fuck all with it
-

That means he's having a stormer. You'll only notice him when he tries a shot that hits the International Space Station.
-

I put our match on, immediately saw Westwood pointing as the game went on around him, decided I couldn't be arsed with the same old shit, and turned it off again.
-
My favourite thing so far is the commentator shouting AguerrRRO with absolute confidence that he'll score as he puts it wide.
Can't read his name without hearing Martin Tyler and his Agueruuoooaaaauuuoooo. Beaten only by Gary Neville's Tarzan orgasm when Torres scored in Barcelona.
-
Several times now we've shit out of 50:50 balls in midfield. Veretouts wasting the ball when he gets it.
-
Traore scores. Shame it's for Chelsea.
-

How many weeks did you take off maths?

I'd take a clean sheet. We're stinking the place out but you have to start from somewhere

The Etihad Seige. Tales will be told years from now about the time we went to the heart of the UAE and bravely kept a clean sheet for 40 minutes.
-
I don't know if this question has been asked but why has Garde got a daffodil on his lapel?
-
Honestly opponents can take a week off training in preparation for a game against us. Just stay alert for 15 minutes and then dominate the remaining 85.
How many weeks did you take off maths?
Yeah fuck me I'm shit. Perhaps I'm accounting for extra time and the fact that they'll probably dominate us in the post match interviews
-
Veretout booked.
-
I don't know if this question has been asked but why has Garde got a daffodil on his lapel?
It's a fashion thing.
A cheeky gallic flourish he thought he'd chuck into the mix this morning.
-
HT. I'd have taken 0-0 before KO.
-
Lescott and Guzan are playing very well
Well you've fucking done it now. Cue second half calamitous pass out to Lescott, backpass to Guzan who then let's the ball through his legs and into the net.

Harsh. We're quite competitive in post-match interviews.
-

Marie Curie.
-
Atmosphere at Sid James described as "toxic".
-
do we get a point for that?
-

It's a fashion thing.

Also part of raising money for Marie Curie nurses
-
Atmosphere at Sid James described as "toxic".
They're absolutely terrible, as bad as I've seen us this season, look very much like a collection of players who couldn't give a fuck.
-
Jushead on for you know who.
-
A committed patron of the arts, Randy will commission an opera in commemoration of this glorious half of football. Goalless in Excelsis.
-
Just watched 1st half highlights... cracking save by Guzan on Aguero
-
That was ok so far. Show's that you can field a team of technically duff players but still make them hard to score against.
-
Fuck me! I hadn't realised that Flabby Onegoalayear was 'playing'.
Flabby Onegoalayear - love it!
I'm here all year folks.
-
Get Gabby off now and hope Gestede gets his head on a cross.
-
Just get Gabby off
-
This is where the miracle escape begins, we're going to win this 1-0.
Only joking. We'll still lose about 3-0 second half.
-
Get Gabby off now and hope Gestede gets his head on a cross.
Yep that is our only chance of getting on the score sheet.
-
they've defended doggedly and gana has put a shift in, but they have to offer more upfront
-
Surprised, and delighted, Citeh haven't made a change. If they bring on Sterling and that fella that scored a hat-trick in the cup they'd cause us real problems with pace.
-
Apparently Citeh have had 78% of play
-
That's that then. How many more will they score.
-
There you go 1-0
-
Shit!
-
Lasted all of two minutes.
Good job.
-
Here we go
-
Took a deflection apparently.
-
I'll go for 4-0 by the end. It has to be crushing to the soul that right after HT we concede and whatever was said at the break blown to pieces.
-
Richards you ******!
-
There is literally no point in watching any more. None whatsoever
-
Massive deflection, typical
-
2-0. Here we fucking go.
-
So what? We went a whole half without conceding and I'll never, ever forget it. Ring the church bells. Rejoice, rejoice!
-
Hahahahaha
-
2-0
-
Thanks for a pleasant hour Villa, including half-time.
As good as it gets.
-
Well done Richards you fucking dong
-
There we go. Five against two in the box, and we make it easy for them.
-
Westwood. Standing there, pointing, completely ignoring Silva in about 10 square yards of space. I fucking hate him.
-
And 2. Well done again Richards
-
I'm so proud.
-
Richards you ****** AGAIN!
-
Fuck off Richards.
-
This is where the miracle escape begins, we're going to win this 1-0.
Only joking. We'll still lose about 3-0 second half.
Change that to 5-0.
-
Comical.
-
If Man City needed to play one team on planet Earth to get them back to winning again, Aston Villa is that team.
-
My two football bets today are 5-0 and 6-0
-
Richards you c***!
CUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!
-
Richards guaranteed free pints for life in the blue half of Manchester. He really is a shit, clueless defender.
-
I never, ever want to see Richards in a Villa shirt again. He is utterly, utterly fucking useless, and a massive twat into the bargain.
-
Not the best of starts to the second half
-
Please make it official asap so the truth can out, the club is rotten to the core.
btw, Richards, fuck off
-
Have said it before but why Richards is allowed to pull on a villa shirt is beyond me
-
Garde's rapidly replacing McNeil as the worse manager in living memory. How he kept his job will be discussed by football academics in decades to come
-
I don't know if this question has been asked but why has Garde got a daffodil on his lapel?
It's a fashion thing.
A cheeky gallic flourish he thought he'd chuck into the mix this morning.
Also part of raising money for Marie Curie nurses
Ta! I thought he'd become Welsh or something.
-
Watching Newcastle now. They can't hope to reach our dizzy heights.
-
If Man City needed to play one team on planet Earth to get them back to winning again, Aston Villa is that team.
To be honest that isn't a claim that is restricted to Man City. Hell, Jossy's Giants would fancy playing Villa.
-
Useless ******. Please decease.
-
Richards guaranteed free pints for life in the blue half of Manchester. He really is a shit, clueless defender.
Who's your favourite Spanish team Mark, Real Madrid or the other lot? What are they called again....oh yes, Barca......!
-
bloody hell we do collapse quickly don't we? was 0-0 last I looked.
-
We've had some right wankers at the club during my Villa time, every week Richards goes higher up the list. Fucking wanker.
-
I never, ever want to see Richards in a Villa shirt again. He is utterly, utterly fucking useless, and a massive twat into the bargain.
I was saying that back in October and yet he still manages to get selected. Only God knows what Jores must have done to upset Garde.
-
Not the best of starts to the second half
You are Darren Woolley and I claim my 50p
-
If a player can have a "boo-hoo if we're relegated I want to be released for fuck-alll" contract, surely a club can have a "you relegated us, your wage is quartered" ???
-
'There's only one greedy pigeon'
-
Fuck me, we have an attack, who is our poacher in the box? Alan Hutton.
-
Same every week. I don't enjoy football any more.
-
We haven't got a clue what to do with the ball.
-
when will we win another PL game?
-
3-0.
-
The pigeon still hasn't moved
-
We can feel like we've been in a game at 3-0. Well done, lads.
-
Spineless. Again.
-
all too easy again
-
when will we win another PL game?
7 years ish would be my total stab in the dark.
-
when will we win another PL game?
2020-21
-
Not the best of starts to the second half

She-who-must-be-obeyed was asking me for an example of the rhetorical device 'litotes' the other day. I will show her UKR's post later.
-
3-0. please end it now
-
Who is our worse manager statistically? Garde has to be close as even if it happened 100 years ago i'm sure people would still talk about bobbins worse than his side.
-
We need to just change our badge to a white flag. What an embarrassment we are.
-
The pigeon still hasn't moved

-
Oh well, at least I've made a bit of money out of this. Laid under 2.5 goals on betfair. As I said on the pre-match thread that bet was a no brainer.
-
Weakest link today and most of the season.................. Step forward Micah fucking Richards.
-
At least by getting to half time level, we stopped the possibility of a double digit defeat....
-
give it away cheaply again
-
Completely falling apart now. Could be (even more) embarrassing
-
3-0. please end it now
3-0 with 1/2 hour to go and wanting it to end is exactly the same as being bottom of the table by a mile with over two months to go. In both cases it is going to get a lot worse and painful.
-
When does Micah Richards officially replace Steve Hodge as the most hated Villa player ever?
-
Why are people moaning? It was obvious we were going to get battered today. We're already down anyway, who gives a shit.
-
The shittest of the shit. We'll tear up the Championship, though, eh?
-
I may have a sneaky tenner on us losing all of our remaining games.
-
Richards guaranteed free pints for life in the blue half of Manchester. He really is a shit, clueless defender.
Who's your favourite Spanish team Mark, Real Madrid or the other lot? What are they called again....oh yes, Barca......!
Athletic Bilbao but I don't mind Barca. No doubt you're a big admirer of Franco's boys.
-
Garbage again. Richards should be no where near Villa Park, none of this face the music shit, he doesn't care less, the only ones it's affecting are us fucking mugs watching our name get dragged through the mud and turned in to a laughing stock on a weekly basis.
Get them out the team now you fucking cretin.
-
These players revolt me. Garde,too. The worst manager we've had? Supported in January or not, took over a sinking ship or not, surely he could have influenced this team a bit more?
No tactics,no shape, no passion. Awful. The players don't seem to respect him, don't listen to him. Ah, it's dreadful. This is the worst time of my Villa supporting life.
Fucking Gabby ambling around, Westwood sprinting forward, pointing, those tossers at the back, Remi on the touchline like a used condom-I want our fans to revolt.
-
4-0.
-
Who is our worse manager statistically? Garde has to be close as even if it happened 100 years ago i'm sure people would still talk about bobbins worse than his side.
I think he's our worst manager by just about any yardstick you choose to use.
-
The shittest of the shit. We'll tear up the Championship, though, eh?
Yeah with all the players who are clearly interested in playing for Aston Villa. Over night, after 5 years, they're going to discover they're footballers again. NO heart, no spine, no clue, no interest.
-
OMG Make it stop
Please god make it stop
-
Garde's rapidly replacing McNeil as the worse manager in living memory. How he kept his job will be discussed by football academics in decades to come
worse than mcneill and with an 11% win rate, couldnt motivate a turd and tactically inept and yet some still think he is the man to manage us next season
-
It's going to take some doing to come back from here
-

I agee 100%
-
4 and counting
-
Even by our standards, that was pathetic defending.
-
Richards you ******!
-
This is men against boys. Truly, truly pathetic.
-
it's au revoir all round now isn't it?
-
This isn't just your everyday level of shite. It's Olympic standard bollocksness. It takes real dedication to be this bad.
-
what a load of c*nts
-
Garde is dreadful too isn't he.
Easiest job in the world, pick up your pay, tell everyone they're shit and it's nothing to do with you and pick the same players every week.
-
I'm going for 7 today. May as well break a record for the season right. Something to talk about later.
-
And still you can hear our fans singing. Our support doesn't deserve this shite.
-
Could be a new record for heaviest premier league record defeat.
-
Garde has to leave after this, surely? A more rag tag, comically terrible performance I've never seen. Well, since the last one, obviously.
-
When a manager decides to play three centre-backs, you know he's lost it.
The last time it was a good idea was the late 90s.
-
If I had a cap I'd doff it to those who made the journey today
-
It'd be nice to get a goal, wouldn't it?
-
Pick the same gutless players.
Lose heavily and pathetically.
Repeat.
Please make this end.
-

He is an uninspiring prick. Why is Gestede coming on now? Why not at half time for Gabby.
We are gone aren't we. Sad.
-
These players revolt me. Garde,too. The worst manager we've had? Supported in January or not, took over a sinking ship or not, surely he could have influenced this team a bit more?
No tactics,no shape, no passion. Awful. The players don't seem to respect him, don't listen to him. Ah, it's dreadful. This is the worst time of my Villa supporting life.
Fucking Gabby ambling around, Westwood sprinting forward, pointing, those tossers at the back, Remi on the touchline like a used condom-I want our fans to revolt.
They already know we're pissed off, Axl, so we don't need to do anything. Randy wants to sell. Nobody is buying football clubs these days, though. You can't protest if you don't have a clearly defined set of goals and aims. Apparently.
-
Who is our worse manager statistically? Garde has to be close as even if it happened 100 years ago i'm sure people would still talk about bobbins worse than his side.
I think he's our worst manager by just about any yardstick you choose to use.
I disagree, he can probably cook better than most of the others although Houllier might give him a run for his money.
-
Any manager that starts Flabby proves they have no fucking clue.
-
If I had a cap I'd doff it to those who made the journey today
Indeed. I'm amazed I'm even listening to it.
-
Gestede coming on. What is the fucking point of bringing him on when we're three nil down?!!
Start the fucker. Can't be any worse than Flabby!
-
Flabby off. Hurrah
-
we all knew what was going to happen, but we're still here
-
Garde has to leave after this, surely? A more rag tag, comically terrible performance I've never seen. Well, since the last one, obviously.
He'll tell everyone how shit we are in the post match and then we go again next week with the same players. I don't know what he thinks he's achieving with this and I know it doesn't mean tuppence to him but I'm finding it incredibly embarrassing right now supporting us and having to watch them keep humiliating our club whilst they all fight their personal battles behind the scenes or whatevers going on.
This just isn't good enough and whatever the circumstances his record is atrocious here. He's had as much effect on the team as a crisp packet floating across the pitch. Completely pointless him being here at the moment.
-

You not a Gabby fan, Goldie?
-
Whether or not Garde is the right manager at the wrong time or just the wrong manager, I think he'll be fired at the end of the season too. I can see the club wanting a clean sweep. He hasn't been dealt a good hand but he's made a fucking pigs ear of what he has been dealt. It was never going to be easy but he hasn't helped matters either. While holistically he says a lot of the right things in a broader context, you almost think Houllier has been in his ear about man management and how to handle the current situation. The players are fucking shit and the manager isn't helping. We need a fresh start next season.
-
One bonus, Bournemouth are two up.
-
I've had enough of this shit. There must be something we can do, as fans. Force some kind of effect.
-
Please god make it stop.
Well, maybe just two more. Or one, even.

This is men against boys. Truly, truly pathetic.
It's not even that good.
-
Clown brings on Jushede when we're 4-0 down, you needed to do the at HT genius.
-
And now Citeh have a penalty.
-
When Gana looks to he left, I wonder if he considers passing to the pigeon rather than Aly
-
I predicted 4-0 (prediction league) and at half time i thought i was about right. Now it seems I may have been a touch conservative. How bad is that?
So sad, I actualy hate the fact that I go against my own team. Now a Penalty.
-
Sooner have Les Reed or Terry Connor over this moron.
-
here comes number 5
-
Flabby off. Hurrah
Fuck off you receding twat. Not you, Gabby the free loading wank stain.
-
I am so sad.
Can we call him Remi Gauche from now on?
-
Gestede coming on. What is the fucking point of bringing him on when we're three nil down?!!
Start the fucker. Can't be any worse than Flabby!
Sorry forgot we're 4 down.
And there's a fucking penalty.....
-
i'm glad we've shown some balls today and not capitulated, they make me so proud
-
I fear, of all games, Chelsea at VP in a few weeks. They are hungry and I fear a 10-0 home defeat that day
-
Guzan saves it,
-
Please god make it stop.
Well, maybe just two more. Or one, even.
(http://i.imgur.com/XzS5CKy.png)
Here we go.
-
Richards you ******!
-
well done guzan
-
Or it hits the post.
-
Guuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaannnnnnn
-
Please god make it stop.
Well, maybe just two more. Or one, even.

no no no no too fucking quick, Villa.
-
Nice of them to miss that.
-
Hahahahaha. Ish
-
Bacuna on to save us! 5-4, we're gonna win 5-4.
-
The Maggots are on route with us!
O-2 Bournemouth
-
Oh don't worry everyone Bacuna's coming on. Can it get any worse??
-
it'll be alright, bacuna is coming on
-
Veretout should of joined Leicester, damn he really fucked that one up.
-
Bacuna on. Fucking Bacuna! I've supported Garde so far but I'm having my doubts now
-
There may be a solution to our plight. But I think it would have to involve an asteroid, or a deadly plague of some kind.
-
Guzan celebrating a missed penalty. You didn't save it you fucking twat.
Time for bed. I've lost my cool, and am just ranting. Apologies all. Have as good a night as possible.
Huge respect to those who travelled to the game. I'm proud of you.
Up the Villa.
-
Please..please..please tell me I haven't seen that stupid face of Bacuna come on the pitch.
-

I am starting to wonder whether the only way to really solve things is to burn the club to the ground.
-
Guuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaannnnnnn
Pooooooooooooossssssttttttttt!
-
Still reckon 6 or 7 tho
-
Laughable rag tag bunch. That's my fill for the day, everyone else enjoy.

Absolute respect to those who travelled today. All I've heard is them singing.
-
15 conceded in our last 4 games. So far.
-
It's the being so crap that does it.
-
It's like watching Brazil. Play Germany.
-
Have backed Garde all the way but bringing that waster Bacuna on has just finished me. Go Garde please
-
I went off to make a coffee. When I came back we were two down.Must have been a hell of a half time team talk.
-
It's like watching Brazil. Play Germany.
At Risk.

exactly
if he has an ounce of decency the snivelling fuckwit will resign after the game
-
As things stand we have conceded 58 goals in 29 games. Exactly two per game. Utterly, desperately, astonishingly bad defending.
-
*Does Amazon search for "Paul McKenna: I Can Make You Think You're Not Actually A Villa Fan."*
-
One thing we have definitely learned this season is why Micah Richards spent most of his time in Florence on the bench.
-
'We want our pigeon back'

No fractions, nice!
-

I think we should hope Sunderland stop up so that there might be an interested buyer and at £5m too!
-
I can only surmise Garde doesn't think he'll work again in football and is holding on for any pay-off he can get.. I can't imagine why you'd put yourself through this otherwise
-
Newcastle pull one back. Come on Bournemouth!

Florence who?

Westwood gives it away yet again. Why is he anywhere near our team?
-

had enough of him
-

-
The usual suspects will all be in Harvey Nics in Brum tomorrow, spending their thousands like all is great in the world.
-
Fucking hell Westwood you useless pile of shit
-
Defoe scores.
-
I'm trying to get my head around how the fucking hell Ashley Westwood has made a career as a professional footballer.
-
Who'd have thought that Billy MacNeil comes out as Guardiola next to this Gallic plum.
-
Gana looks completely fed up
-
Westwood is the rice cakes of football.
-
Defoe scores.
Just our luck. At least they have goal scorers
-

And what would you propose with this load of crap for players. We haven't had a proper striker since Benteke and the defence is just incapable.
I agree Garde has to go, but I think it's because most of these players have sh*t all over him.
A new manager will need to start with a clean team sheet and off load all the crap, even if it costs Lerner a shed load of money.
-
Defoe scores.
Just our luck. At least they have goal scorers
What's a scorer?
-
as if sunderland winning or not makes any difference
-
11 from safety as it stands, not that it matters any more.

Bacon and eggs are good, though.
-
I'm trying to get my head around how the fucking hell Ashley Westwood has made a career as a professional footballer.
He is truly awful - there was a reason he was playing in League 1 for Crewe. In a nutshell he represents why we're where we are. Not young and hungry - cheap and not good enough
-
Sunderland winning is good. Heaps more shit on Newcastle, and I want them down with us.
-
Just been described on 5 live as a 'sorry outfit'.
-
Bournemouth have a 3rd.
-
Just been described on 5 live as a 'sorry outfit'.
Generous. And they don't seem even a bit sorry.
-

Likewise Bacuna,
-
4-0 is a fucking victory in my book. Sorry Paulie that the post fucked you out of some financial happiness.
-
I can only imagine bacuna was bought on to point out how there really isn't anyone better. That or Garde's family were being held by ISIS in the centre circle and he was arranging a hostage swap.
-
Need Sanchez back for at least some bite to the midfield. Put him ahead of Westwood.
-
Sweet Jesus, when will this end...
-

I don't.It makes the league much harder to win.

Calamity Carlos or sideways Westwood? We really are in deep shit.
