Don't feel bad about dropping SKY,its the way forward,if only more of us would do it,things could be different.

Speaking of the football league show, I have just been reminded of how good a player Yakubu can be. what a goal.

Looked like a definite penalty to me as well. But hearing about Ashleys petulance today he could have been upended with a two footed challenge and it still wouldn't have been given

The ref took one look at his S&M neck warmer and decided to enhance his world of pain, so - no pen.  Aaargh! thanks...

...that the villa had played better today?



Def.

Though i think I spent more time ranting at the Tv when the 'pundits' were going on abou the wonderful ball from Giggs for the Nani goal....surely it was great work from Nani to make something of a poor ball from Giggs.....though it is Saint Ryan

This season, I have watched hardly any football other than our matches. I don't bother watching MOTD at all, I have got rid of Sky Sports so all that crap is also out the window.

I think it is mainly because we've been so poor, I don't want to watch other teams playing well, but to be honest, even if we have a good season next year, I think I'll carry on like this. Life's too short to spend much of it watching other teams playing football.

I've been pretty much the same this season.  i still live and die by the way we play, but care little for football in general. 

That puts more stock in our performances and results, which angers me more that we have been so bad this season.

I can't believe Blose moved the advertising hoardings closer to the touchlines to prevent Delap having a run up for his long throws!


Got to admire that smart thinking. Hope we do the same when we play them at home

Bloody good idea. Fair play to them.

As for villa, frustrating as ever. We have the makings of a great side once we get our defence sorted. We need a few wins soon though to avoid slipping back into the mire. until we reach 42 points or so I won't rest easy.
Good tactics - credit for crowding out their opposition tactics.
