Was it me or did I hear some booing towards the end of the game?
and another mate getting £2 change of out £10 for 2 pints of Fosters in The Bricklayers. Good old London.

They were also unimpressed with the applause McLeish got as he came out at the start of the second half and booed him then too. I don't think they were in their seats at the start of the first half or no doubt they'd have booed then too.

Another slightly surreal sight was Villa fans shaking the hands of Met officers outside the ground before the game, presumably in recognition of what they've gone through over the last week.
The families of the three lads killed are an absolute credit to the entire city of Birmingham. I'm glad the club showed their sympathies for them, but for all of the innocent people whose lives have been hurt by the recent events. And yes, all of the services, police, fire, rescue need to be applauded too for putting themselves in harms way.

One thing we were all frustrated about with Ash was his crosses, be they open play or set pieces. I think N'Zogbia will prove to be a better crosser than Ash and better in dead ball situations. He'll have to do much, much more than that to be a better all around player than him, and I'd be mental to suggest that his is....You said;" N'Zogbia is going to be a big asset for us this season. His crossing is already a step up from Ash."It was 30 minutes into the first game of the season and it was a silly thing to say. He had an indifferent performance with a couple of half-decent crosses, none of it was "a step up from Ash". Hopefully he will get better, I think he will.It's not a silly statement as I said it also considering his play at Wigan. Look at some of his crosses and free kick goals at Wigan as an example. Ash, given the opportunities he got with us didn't deliver the same quality. He put in some very good crosses to Heskey and Collins, both of which we should have done better on.

Sorry TV, I'm afraid I can't agree that N'Zogbia has already shown he is a step up on A Young. He'll have to do considerably better than that for a sustained period of time.
