Aston Villa v Burnley Post-Match Thread

[darren woolley]

We made hard work for ourselves but we got the result in the end i thought Friedel, Downing, Heskey, and NRC played well although when is NRC going to score in a one on one with  the keeper, Downing's goal was a good goal player of the season so far for us Friedel is usual steady self with some blinding saves thrown in, Heskey and NRC have had a change of fortune since GH took over i would like West Ham or Ipswich at home in the quater final.

Percy said he stood with the 'ultras'. I remember a recent thread introducing them. What do they do then? Have they got red hand-held flares, are they bare-chested with everyone facing the crowd and not watching the game?

I read on another thread that the Ultras often use a Capo, so I did a search on google images, and it appears to be some form of knuckle duster or vile instrument of torture.

Yeah, death to those guitars and their unfeasibly long fretboards!

Young ...... it was poor when he headed for the corner trying to time waste when there was 11 minutes left

With 10 men versus 11 after 110 minutes of football, I thought it was a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

What has happened with Delfouneso? He isn't getting a look in this season. He should have started last night after Carews injury?

They go on guitars.

Did anyone notice the man sitting next to Randy? I thought it was Lofty from Eastenders..

Ireland, I thought looked quite dangerous for spells.

Really! When ?

Not a great performance from the secondish string but about par for a new Villa manager in the Cups, although at least we did come away with a victory, thanks to him being clever enough not to play Guzan, and for two more match saving subs, which few have mentioned, did the business, just.

Cannot fathom why no striker to start, even Heskey, what's up with wonder boy, no look in for the Fonz it seems.

Not impressed with any of the 'youth' except Clark, but for me Cuellar would make me look good, why the fck is he not number 1 pick.

[PaulWinch again]

Sounded painful, but we won and that's the main thing.

It was him, Tom Watt is a journo now.
