Aston Villa v Newcastle United Post-Match Thread

First half we were poor, second half ok.

Result was all that mattered though.

The result is everything today. It was a committed performance, and while it is very easy (and typically Villa) to pick faults with the team and individuals, we have got what we desperately needed. A lot more hard work to do still but that result is a massive boost. When times are hard, teams don't generally go out and win comfortably so who cares if it wasn't like watching Brazil?!

We have won a 'must win' game and pretty much all the other results that mattered have gone for us this weekend so we have got to be happy with our lot

No we are not out of the shit yet and not read anyone on here saying we are so not sure why so much negativity on here - let's enjoy the three points and rare clean sheet

Perfect weekend results wise, now five points clear of the drop with six games to go and I backed the winner of the National too; happy days!

I don't agree with BBC Digital's report that says Newcastle were the better team in the first half and that we scored 'against the run of play.'

Bullshit.

Get down your local.
With luck like that you'll be beating Women off your Todger.

I saw some tweet on the BBC site that a barcodes fan had tweeted, along the lines of 'well we won 6-1 on aggregate and Villa's strongest could only beat our reserves.' Twat.

There is a grain of truth in that.
Had we been playing a side featuring Kevin Nolan and Leon Best, it might have been different.

As mentioned above, Nile Ranger was laughably bad.

I'm not interested in nice football right now and just want us picking up points which is what we have done today.
Same again next week please.

Still think Kyle Walker would make a great right sided midfielder/winger.

It worked for Bale moving positions, I think it would work for him.

Why do we keep playing Agbonlahor? He is absolutely shit and i've always said so. Zero technical ability, no footballing brain and has fuck all apart from a bit of pace. He's a nice enough lad and a Villa fan, but if he wasn't nobody would rate him.  He's piss poor.

[PaulWinch again]

I thought Gabby did well today.

A battling display and good win- petrov impressed me today and friedal also, the win Is all that counts,nervy last few minutes but we got the points- a win at west ham next week and we will be almost there.
Well done to management , players and fans, we are well on the way to safety!

It's been a bad season for him, not helped by Houllier's bizarre and mentalist decision to play him on the wing.
He's still a good striker and I still think there is a future for him at Villa.

BCV, you really are a moany, whiny, glass mostly empty, miserable, fucking tit.
