Disgraceful from Black, some credit to the team for doggedly playing to his game plan.

Adama not brought on until right at the end and his run past a Newcastle defender before being fouled was our one moment of anything approaching enterprise in the whole game. Sums it all up I guess.

Brilliant atmosphere. Not often you get the whole ground singing but the second half had everybody on their feet. The protest was brilliant I thought.

As for the game, meh. Neither side wanted to win. We defended well for a change with Clark probably our best player. Black is McLiesh mkII but never mind, it's almost over.

What an absolutely fantastic atmosphere! Newcastle missed a couple of sitters but were otherwise pretty poor. Pity Black didn't seem to think the fans should be rewarded with any entertainment. Five defenders and three defensive midfielders on the pitch while Gil, Grealish and Traore sit on the bench and, quelle surprise, not a single corner or a single shot on target in the entire game. Heard Black on WM on the way back and he was genuinely pleased that his plan to keep it at 0-0 worked as he didn't want the record of 12 consecutive defeats. Had he put some attacking intent we could of course have won. Hope he fucks off on the horse he rode in on, and the sooner the better

was a negative line up. Hutton on the right wing wtf?. However if we'd gone our usual 433 with Gil and co we would have lost.
maybe if we'd battled like that all season we could have drawn our way to 38points Pulis style?

Idrissa was great he really helped out Toner who had to mark Townsend.

I thought Gana was OK defensively, with his trademark interceptions and 'toe in' challenges.

However, when it comes to anything else a midfielder is supposed to do such as pass, run, carry the ball, or heading, he was as usual, totally gash.

Well I was at the match and if the incoming manager (whoever it may be) saw the ammount of effort and hard work our players put in he would be thinking I have something to work with here. Gueye, Sanchez and even Sinclair of all people got stuck in and gave of their best. Hutton you expect this as normal but he lacks the ability to cross the thing properly. Jordan Ayew may work well with Gestede next season. I for one don't think the future will be as bleak as others make out.

I think you are mistaken but I agree with you about Black.

Performance was good in my opinion apart from Westwood who looked inept and Hutton who was out classed.

The inflatables looked brilliant at the start of the game and on 74 mins

Oh, credit to those with the inflatable cocks too.
My nephew Luke took one of those! We were towards the back of the Holte and watched the cock make it's way down to just behind the goal. An infantile and most enjoyable thing to do.
Eric Black is a complete twat. No subs on a day where a little bit of flair could have won the game - just shows how devoid of any ambition the coaching staff were on a day when there was little to lose.
Great atmosphere and really noisy where we were. I love VP when it's like that.

Thought the defence did well. Just very poor and lacking ideas going forward.

Good atmosphere. Got some free tickets so glad I didnt pay to see that.

No corners, no shots on target. Abysmal

Credit to us fans, we were great. Good sing song in the Tavern afterward.

I thought the Geordies were as poor as they were in 09 when we relegated them. No fight and no bottle. Worse than we are really. Their fans were also very subdued considering what was at stake.

Roll on lots of positive chnage at VP in the summer and some better footy next season

I think just cutting out 4-5 rotten apples will take us a long way right from the start. We've really got to do that to give the dressing room back to the management team (whoever that may be in June).
We've got enough quality to cope with the championship and I would expect us to buy 4-5 reasonable players to help us out. I just think one key aspect will be buying a proper leader.

If that was their best then I dread to think what their worst might be as that was as bad as anything else I've seen this season.

No movement off the ball, inability to pass to each other, every pass that was completed seemingly inside and backwards, no idea of even trying to attack (did we have a shot)?

Only positives I think were Clark and Toner, and even Toner was played out of position.

And if Black's 35 years of football experience have taught him to play Bacuna as a right sided centre half, he has wasted those 35 years.

Apparently it happened. I've fallen on my sword for the rest of you, and viewed the footage on the Mail site. It took place briefly either side of 3 o'clock, circling the ground at seemingly a radius and height which ensured that anyone that'd somehow caught sight of it and foolishly forgotten to bring their binoculars would be unable to share in its side-splitting mirth.

Great atmosphere, awful game. Credit as always this season to the Holte end for showing what this club is truly about, rather than the overpaid clowns on the pitch.

Black is so infuriatingly negative, I half expected him to pull off his mask to reveal McLeish. The game was crying out for Adama to rip into the Newcastle defence for the last quarter of an hour, but the dimwhitted jock hasn't got the bottle to make the change.

Two funniest moments for me was obviously the topless fat bloke tormenting the steward with a beach ball in the lower Trinity corner near the Holte End (seen by many ), but also the chap in the Witton Lane stand seen disappearing down the exit carrying a blow up doll about twenty minutes from full time.  Guess he'd decided to make his own entertainment.

on the pitch one of the worst excuses for a football game you will ever see

Off the pitch Villa fans were absolute class, the Holte was awesome today
I've been going up the Villa for over 40 years now, and it takes a lot for me to go over the top on our support, but today it was the full fuck me we are the best in the land

simply because the team have been so shit, we are down humiliated all over the country and at home virtually every week yet still we stand proud

Leeb on the match thread got it spot on when he said we have totally owned our relegation,
We have gone down in style off the pitch,
the away matches I have attended this year have been some of the most memorable I've ever been to, I'm not sure many other clubs would have done the same

Arsenal next week I can't wait, then hopefully we can begin the come back

Exactly. The atmosphere was the best all season but there was no reward on the pitch and Black's tactics were unfathomable.

We weren't quite as poor as usual but they were poor too,  though they had good chances at least.

Gana, Sanchez and Westwood created nothing as usual and Sinclair ran about but to no effect whatsoever.

I suspect they'll be the team that bounce straight back next season.

That's the one.

I blame a dodgy stream and clenched teeth. If that was Hepburn-M then he has acquired an impressive amount of muscle for a young lad. It was still the only bit of enterprise I saw from Villa all afternoon, and that from a tactical clock exhausting sub. Fuck off, Black.

You'll tell me now that he's actually only 9 stone; I blame a dodgy stream and clenched teeth.

This is what Lerner and his lackeys never got - football is all about the fans - All it needed today was to show attacking intent with 20 minutes to go and the place would have gone into positive hyper-drive - but no the twat Black punished us for daring to question his 35 years experience. Well Eric I've coming to the Villa longer than that so I trump your shit experience and call you out as the dullard you show yourself to be.

We need to keep this level of commitment going into next season - all we need is a little on-pitch excitement.

That game was the antithesis of football. No skill, useful possession or attacking threat. Newcastle played like their season was over. I really wish he had thrown Traore on with 15 to go as if nothing else it would have given us a simple out ball.

I was in the upper Holte and the support was fantastic. It was strange because it was flat before the game and Newcastle fans were making loads of noise. Once we kicked off their support seemed overcome by nerves.

I spoke to a couple of Geordies after the game. They were pretty miffed at their players who showed an amazing lack of fight and desire to win. They reckon they have been shit all season, though I did point out they had no idea what truly shit looks like.

Villa fans were a class act today. Great atmosphere and dignity throughout. Respectful of those Villans departed this year. Supportive of the behind the scenes staff when thanks for their work was tannoyed. Always proud to be a Villa supporter but today was special.
Nufc fans anonymous. If we were still scrapping to avoid relegation the Villa fans would have been singing their hearts out. Game not up to much but it was sweet almost condemning the geordies with s'land winning. UTV....VTID

Wasn't there, watched online. Commentators praised the home supporters numerous times. Talked about how difficult it must be for Lescott and Bacuna when they were being booed every time they touched the ball.
Newcastle had lots of chances to score and still couldn't even beat the worst Villa side in the last 30 years. We were lucky they were so bad in front of goal.
Noise and atmosphere came across brilliantly. The inflatables was a great idea, effective and not offensive or a danger to anyone, took the heat out of the situation but got a point across, that the majority of fans are not happy with what is happening to our great club.
Not a fan of Black and his tactics and team choices, he could/should have shown more attacking intent and we could have won the game, but so glad we didn't lose and have those Geordie twats gloating.

Made the hairs stand up, hearing VP at full voice singing VTID.
Congratulations to everyone who went today, made us proud to be Villa again.

All that Black had to do to diffuse the situation and reduce the stick he takes was to a) start RHM or someone else instead of Sinclair and b) not play Bacuna. He chose not to do either and then compounded the problem by not making any substitutions until bringing on RHM at the end. It almost seems that he's deliberately trying to piss the fans off

I really enjoyed today despite the abysmal anti-football from Black. The atmosphere was tremendous.

Yes. I suspect I could live to be 100 years old and never witness an irrelevant 0-0 with an atmosphere like that. It was quite moving.

I loathe the people who run our club, and have nothing but contempt for most of the players, but I love the Villa.

Post-match highlight: minibus full of Newcastle fans yelling abuse out of the window but driving in precisely the wrong direction. They're probably doing circuits of Wolvo right now

Yes too  negative (are  we wolves or everton in  disguise) - we  need a target man thats for sure and a goalie

Lescott is a complete  dick but  was  outstanding today

Bacuna  is a dick but was his abysmal self  today

Villa crowd were fantastic  (so were Newcastle up  to half time)  I honestly didn't realise the match had to be stopped at 74 mins and  what were them extra 6 minutes for?

Incredible, surreal atmosphere today.

The game itself came second-placed. I expected us to lose; not having a shot on target all day probably meant we deserved to.

Then hearing Sunderland had come from behind to beat Chelsea while Newcastle were the only Premier League team not to beat us this season produced much mirth.

Listening it small-minded geordies walking down Witton Lane with classics like "they don't have running water here", "well someone's got to live in Birmingham" and my personal favourite "Imagine a club who's entire season hangs on another club getting relegated" (It wasn't, but the world knew it'd wind yous up).

That is the worst team I've seen in 25 years.
Shambolic - Clueless - Gutless  with very few exceptions on and off the pitch.

What was clear today is that We are Aston Villa, not the imbeciles that own and "run" the club.
The support was astounding, I went up the top of the Trinity (while I've still got the chance) and believe me the noise up there was incredible, great to see the bar codes silenced as well - obviously baffled by true support and passion, not some professional plastic "geordie" act. Yes boys - get back on your coaches - "You're going down with the Villa"

Great respect to all that made today a memorable occasion, especially the banners, "no sobbing on the Holte"  and the inspired "Sob on the Tyne -Again".

Newcastle were expected to win this as all pundits regarded the Villa match as their 3 point banker. I was pleased that we denied them and more pleased that Sunderland won. The most vociferous  Villa supporters around us turned out be my Sunderland mate in middle upper North. He also, like others have mentioned, absolutely admired our supporters and the atmosphere.

Back handed compliment from Small Heath. Imagine it'd cost a fortune to pay for a fly-by. This is how much we mean to them.
Let's make sure this time 12 months we're rubbing their noses in the dirt.

With that and the coffin last week, some of them have probably spent more on us than their own club this season.

I did a little video on the 74th minute too. What an outstanding effort from our Supporters yesterday, especially in face of another dour, soulless offering from Black & the players.

Such an idiot, I didn't even realise the game had been held up either!!

Was having too much fun. At Villa Park. Fun??!!

I have had a few messages today from mates who support other clubs and they were all very impressed by our support yesterday. Well done to those who coordinated the protests as it helped turn what could have been a damp squib into a party occasion. The best atmosphere I have seen at Villa Park this season and once again people up and down the country are aware of the depth of feeling we have for the club - we could have been completely ignored once relegation was confirmed.

But it wasn't as we were in party mode and then their day turned to shit, much to our amusement.

Adama not brought on until right at the end and his run past a Newcastle defender before being fouled was our one moment of anything approaching enterprise in the whole game. Sums it all up I guess.
I think you are mistaken but I agree with you about Black.

Great atmosphere today, congratulations everyone.
Performance was good in my opinion apart from Westwood who looked inept and Hutton who was out classed.

The inflatables looked brilliant at the start of the game and on 74 mins

Was Hepburn-Murphy

The match wasn't up to much; but I wouldn't have missed it for anything. I'm still smiling and watching the beach balls, over and again. It was great to see the whole stadium getting involved, great support. The only thing good about the club at the moment, is the fans.

Would love to know what Ayew, was thinking when he stood there watching it.

Maybe there could be a insert the caption competition.

The end of he season seemed to have been greeted with total indifference at Manchester City today for a team about to finish third. Compare that to the noise generated by the Holte yesterday and I'm proud to be associated with fellow supporters who would appear to forgive this sorry team almost anything in exchange for a few decent performances. Like others, I'm glad I attended what was a show of support for the club, and for each other, not the players. I hope the Premiership misses us because if it doesn't, then it's not worth being there anyway.

Agreed, I think they were hoping to get one over on us but their taste for revenge backfired due to their own team's utter lack of fight.

There was a young Geordie woman on Witton lane after the game in a very aggressive mood shouting " where's your party then you c#*ts?" The police nearby were observing and waiting in case she incited anything but nothing happened whilst I was passing. She was the exception, as most just seemed resigned to their fate.

The other probably wrote this article, would only talk about how sad the banner and our fans were for celebrating a 0-0. When I pointed out we've lost 11 on the bounce up til now and are only on 16 points, his only reaction was still to talk about the banners and inflatables.

my names not scott nor do I support small heath,  we all love villa we show it  in different ways,  as we are all individuals. I have been told not to mention t.a and have to respect the decision of the people running the forum.
is there a pub in small Heath called the Scott Arms or something then? If you are Villa, which you ain't, fuck off anyway.
shows how much you know about villa boozers and villa manors. I don't know if there's a Boozer in small heath called scott arms. There is a booza called scott arms in the great barr/scott arms areas were alot villa supporters drink.

Other than Fulham, are there any grounds that are in decent areas? Ours is probably one of the better ones.

Looking towards town from the lounge at the back of the Trinity is a beautiful view. As is my pitch from where I sell the fanzine - Aston Hall and park behind me, Aston church in front, the Holte pub and Villa Park to my left. Has to be one of the best settings in world football.
the smoke from the Imi was another thing, could be seen from the Holte end.

Colchester is in a field next to the A12 in Essex. Surrounded on the other three sides by arable crops. They didn't build an exit ramp until a year or so after the stadium was finished.

I'm working in Newcastle today and the consensus is that their team created its own mess. There isn't any real bitterness or animosity directed at Villa.

I wish the local papers in Brum covered the Villa with half the clarity and honesty of the Newcastle Chronicle.

I had a flick through Toon Forum earlier. It was all going well and I see Malandro from here popped on for a sensible discussion.  Then some of them gor all anti Villa and a Blues fan pretending to be one of us signed up to slag our support.

I would cheerfully sign up for a chat myself but think reasoned debate, peppered with a touch of "bantz", would explode the mind of some of the hard of thinking that crawled out when a Villa fan reared their head.

I loved Feethams, sadly the ground is derelict now but think the cricket ground is still there. One of the funniest things I saw was when Sheffield Wednesday played at Feethams in an FA Cup replay and they brought a massive following so were also given half of the Tin Shed (kop end), I was stood with my dad down the side and the Darlo supporters were singing "come and have a go if you think you're hard enough". We could see the Wednesday support thinning out as a load of them simply walked round the back and charged into the startled Darlo support.

Even made the national news as the match was delayed, Darlo won 1-0 with a 30 yarder into the top corner which resulted in yet another pitch invasion. The strangest thing about the night was seeing the half time score from Villa Park, the board said 5-1 but I assumed it was a mistake.

Most of Feethams has gone now but they still use the back of one of the stands as a sight screen for the cricket.

For picturesque football grounds you'd be hard pushed to beat Fort Williams Claggan Park, it sits at the foot of Ben Nevis.

Yeah, Darlington moved to a stupidly big 25k seater stadium on the edge of town, that contributed to end of the club (in it's original incarnation). The club was relegated 7 leagues, and as such had to ground share with Bishop Auckland. The club is now well on the up again, after getting 3 promotions in 4 seasons, and talk is they're moving back to Darlington (again on the edge of town, but in a much nicer location) at some point next season. As others have said, Feethams is now gone (apart from the cricket club), and the likelyhood is, the land will be used for building new houses.

That's the one, George Reynolds. Very dodgy character, who went to jail for breaking in to safes. He ended up setting up a kitchen business, and made a fortune, before buying Darlington. He came with ambitions of taking Darlington the Premier League (you may recall a farcical attempt to sign Tino Asprilla), and left them in administration. Ended up being found guilty of tax evasion.

They were playing golf at Hilltop course, by the baggies ground, the Saturday we played Newcastle.
They stopped play for a short while as they could hear a distant noise. They realised that it was coming from Villa Park 'Villa 'till i die' and 'You're coming down with the Villa' were clearly heard.
Pretty impressive!
