Sunderland v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Goldie.7]

How has our football been dire this season? That's not the problem. But we do have problems.

The main one being we can't win a game of football.

We play good for the odd 15 minutes here and there, when i say good i mean we retain possession and knock it about a bit, if we don't put the game to bed in our brightest spell when will we?

I've been watching sunderland this season and i'll go as far as saying that they play much better football than we do, it kind of showed today we left we nothing!!

That is 2 points out of 12 for Houllier. Very worrying and  SHA up next and  above us in the League.

They're a point behind us.

It's 4 points and SHA are 11th wer 9th

It's one point.

so you're already judging the man after 4 league games, 3 of which have been away from home, and the home game against the current champions?

It's not. They won today which takes them 1 point behind us.

Can't score and that worries me with next week's game in mind.

Meant we've got 4 points under GH not 2

Got you - sorry.

And didn't we beat Wolves in those four games? That's four points surely. Basically, the only bit that's true about that sentence is that we're playing Small Heath next week.

Hope Stan's injury isn't too bad - midfield would be a bit lightweight without him against the knuckledraggers

I'd play Sidwell instead. Petrov has been cack for most this season.

[TimTheVillain]

I cant stand Halsee, ok the bloke has been ill but he obviously hates us, a dodgy own goal inept refereeing and poor execution in the box, but i think we were the better team

I don't think he hates us, that's a mad suggestion ..... he's just a crap ref.

In fact, the Prem is jam packed with crap refs these days .

Most of the crap referees give bad decisions against both teams though.

I don't think he hates us either - but today was ridiculous.

And crap teams. The level of mediocrity in all aspects of the game is stunning and has reached its zenith in my opinion this season....

O'Neill's inability to sign a striker cost us while he was here, and now that he's thankfully moved on, it's still costing us.
