Aston Villa v Wolverhampton Wanderers Post-Match Thread

[The Left Side]

The morning after I am resigned to relegation as I can't see the team getting much out of the remaining fixtures, I know it is a defeatest attitude but whichever division we are in we need a good clear out. We were relegated 5 years after being the best team in Europe, we've come back from worse positions and we will again.

If that bloke were not in the way I could read the bottom. Does it say "Ils ont échoué"?

I sit in the Upper Holte so couldn't see the banner - not sure whether it should have read 'échoué' or 'enculé' 

Or "Ils ont pas de couilles" (sic)

Another thing that struck me, sitting rite next to the tunnel, there were loads of kids asking for autographs etc as the players came off from the pre match warm up, not one of the over paid, pri-madonna wankers stopped, they totally blanked them, were as the Wolves players were happy to stop and sign, its just all wrong

After the match my 7 year old asked if he could stay behind to try to get autographs. Of all the players we saw coming out of the ground in their fenced off area which make it easy to ignore the people that pay their wages only Robert Pires and thankfully Billy's hero Marc Albrighton had the decency to sign for the kids and a couple of strange smelling blokes in anoraks. Pires went right up in my estimation as he signed every autograph and posed for plenty of photos.

I know the team lost and all that bollocks but the captain for the day Ashley Young epitomised everything I hate about some of these overpaid primadonnas by completely ignoring the few kids that were asking for an autograph, he'll fit right in at Man Utd.  Friedel, Heskey, Delph, Walker were all just as bad. The Wolves players by contrast were happy to sign and chat for anybody that asked.

As Billy said, i've got Marc Albrighton I don't care about the rest, I want to go.

I did the same after the Sunderland game earlier this season. The young lads: Albrighton, Clark, Hogg, Fonz and Bannan all came and spoke as did Friedel. Young, Gabby, Collins, Heskey and Dunne all walked out the other side away from the fans. The Sunderland players were better to be fair to them. Spinksy and Anton Ferdinand came to speak to all the people whether they were their supporters or not.

GED will just go back to Montelimar, or wherever, and consider it an experience; we have a decade considering it as a mistake ...he can survive and we may too.. but only amongst the low grade shite for another season.
6th was just not good enough.  N'Importe ou maintainant Ged?

[woodie1978]

have to say i think GH needs to go now, we do not have time to waste now, our defence is a joke, and tactically we look inept plus the players clearly do not respect him.

we need a short term man motivator just for the last 8 games, not sure who but maybe big sam, curbishly

[Dave Cooper please]

Seems I picked the right day to be at my Army reunion then! I didn't even know the score until Sunday afternoon and I had such a fantastic night even that didn't bother me.

It's only football after all, there are far more important things in life, honest.

[Simon Ward]

Starting to lose heart now like the players it seems, and forfeiting the FA Cup has really done us the power of good hasn't it?

Good job my youngest son is a born optimist!

I've never been a big fan of Big Sam's style of footballbut you could never fault any of his teams for fight and commitment.

Even though it wont happen I would bring him in for the 8 games to make sure we stop up and then talk after that.

The football we currently play is shit so his style of play will be no different

I think bringing on Heskey instead of Agbonlahor would have been my shout.  Our team likes to get it in the box, but there is no target man, Bent does not play like that.  fuckshitbollockstitswank
