Is a 6-0 defeat a lack of respect for the travelling fans?

[Archie]

. . . I think it is if the players are supple and unwatchable, like our players were today.
I'm speechless after a display like that.
The only thing that I can say is that I hope that the three brave members of the Italian contingent that went to SJP game (2000 Km to see your team lose 6-0 :bonk: ) had at least the possibility to experience the exciting Newcastle nightlife. . .
As far as I am concerned, I was uncertain whether to go to Newcastle or to Wien, and thanks God my istinct made me to choose Wien where I watched  a decent Aston Villa squad and had even a beautiful pre and post match with Frank and other fellow Aston Villa longlife fans. . .

Every single player today was crap. Ive been going 44 years and today was up there with some notable shockers. But the term lack of respect implies that they deliberately went out to be crap. Thats the same sort of nonsense as people who are demanding refunds on the generals thread.

[Risso]

I've seen us take a few beatings over the years, but never by a team who on paper, we are so superior to.  Hope your friends enjoy their night out in Newcastle Archie, you haven't lived until you've seen 18 stone Geordie slappers walking around in mini skirts!

I'm sick of hearing moaning away supporters, yeah we were shit, we were also un lucky with Ash's goal, we have alot of injuries and the team selection was wrong!

But for fuck sake, there isn't a garentee on every away game ticket you buy!

Then put your fucking fingers in your ears then.

[JJ-AV]

That's bloody close to Doncaster 3-0 IMO.

Hope your friends enjoy their night out in Newcastle Archie, you haven't lived until you've seen 18 stone Geordie slappers walking around in mini skirts!

That's 114.3 kilos,Archie. It ain't pretty.

Its worse.

Worse than all the previous shite of the last ten years from Blackburn, to Arsenal, to Liverpool to Chelsea, and even worse than that 3-0 at Shite Andrews. The fucking worst we've seen in over a decade.

[Phil from the upper holte]

Players don't leave the dressing room and think fuck it i'll lose 6 today.

Its not acceptable but its not acceptable to any Villa fan. You pay your money you take your chance

I have just got home after a day riding on the train to and from the game and running the gauntlet of geordie chavs on the train, in the station and getting to the ground.

In all the years I have been supporting Villa I cannot ever remember such a change in one week.   Last week they were fresh, vibrant, energetic, motivated and confident.   Today they were utterly and totally crap - every man jack of them.   To twist the knife in the wound Kevin McDonald who seemingly only had to produce a solid performance to secure the job behaved identically to Martin O'Neill at his worst.   He should have hauled Carew off when we were only 2 goals down and the game could still be salvaged.   Instead he chose the tried and failed Heskey option and for totally obscure reasons chose to bring on NRC to shore up an already capitulated defence.   It was all pure MON.

That was a defeat of seismic proportions which will take us a very long time to live down and to recover from.

I don't mind fans being refunded after a shocking defeat... on condition they are willing to pay double after a shocking win, like the wins at Old Trafford and Anfield. Villa's not a charity.

Villa's not a charity.

No, its open drain based on the promise of sharing a fleeting moment of a millionaires reflective glory that will never actually come.

[cdbearsfan]

Bla bla bla we've got thrashed in one game the Universe has ended. We'll beat Everton next week and six points from nine is fine.

[lovejoy]

You pay your money you take you chances. If the players aren't trying then replace them. To say it was a lack of respect implies they did it on purpose. This is clearly not the case. As ever we need to keep together, circle the wagons and come out fighting the next time.

[cdbearsfan]

Agreed.
