Queens Park Rangers v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

Does ray Wilkins know the rules? Traore was about to walk down the tunnel when he should have stayed and watched the end of the game, err don't you have to go off the pitch and down the tunnel when you get sent off? You can't stay in the playing area which includes the sidelines then.

At least we didn't lose.  As I thought we would. 

Drawing is not good enough..esp when you have had the lead..again and again!

I suppose the right result. For how bad the first half was,the second made up for it. Players moving,pressing higher up the pitch,midfielders running towards to Gabby.

Hutton seems a liability,postioning is wrong,lets players get the wrong side of him,lets them get in crosses,he'll cost us a few points this season.

1st half the whole midfield didnt want the ball, Collins and Dunne kept us in that.

2nd half the midfield actually passed and went forward. Bannan, Petrov and Irelands distribution was good. Ireland moves the ball quickly to feet and moves into space but our players are so thick when it comes to football intelligence. Delph wants too much time and N'Zog keeps trying to dribble....into a player instead of just keeping it simple. I think Jenas will come in for Delph.

Gutted with only a point, still reminds me of another typical MON performance but I think we will get a couple of wins in before we start to play the better teams.

At least we're becoming 'hard to beat'.  When Dolly said that once he nearly got lynched.

Thought Neil Warnocks comments were about right

I thought he was being a right prick.

Awful performance in this first half. Decent in the second but highly predictable that we wouldn't win the game.

I'm really struggling to find reasons to carry on supporting the Villa at the moment. I've been a massive fan all my life but its getting to the point where I'm thinking whats the point. Awful football, know for a fact that we won't win anything and at the best will be mid-table. The players clearly don't give a crap, the owners have sold our best players and to top it off for the first time in 137 years we have an ex Blues manager in charge. And as fans theres nothing we can do about it except for coughing up more money to pay for idiots like Beye to sit on the bench every week and for the others to produce turgid Football every week.

I've got a ticket for Wigan next week but why should I bother going?

[Brian Taylor]

Some had us down for 3-0 loss, yesterday, so better than nothing as far as predictions concerned..but still frustrated with a darw and silly way given up!

[garyshawsknee]

Thought Hutton was shocking.  Could have given away two penalties with carelessly waving arms, and then is horribly out of position leaving us exposed for the equaliser.  I thought he was of similar ability to Luke Young when he came.  He isn't.

He's alot poorer. Young is a steady Eddie type,Hutton is like a shit version of Warnock,which is saying something.

[CJ]

Dreadful first half, better second. Soft penalty - I'd have been annoyed if something similar had been given against us. Bit of a sickener to concede in extra time but a draw was a fair result - especially given the number of free kicks they wasted on the edge of our box. Still waiting for N'Zogbia to impress, and couldn't understand why he took Bannan off.

I only managed to watch the last ten minutes this afternoon, but although it sounds (from the comments on here) that Collins played well for most of the game, his defending that led to their goal was absolutely awful, really really bad.

[dutchvilla]

We can go either of two ways now - improve on the better passing that was there in the second half and start to convert draws into wins, or keep with the clueless forward play of the first half and get hammered when we play better teams.

1st half the whole midfield didnt want the ball, Collins and Dunne kept us in that.

2nd half the midfield actually passed and went forward. Bannan, Petrov and Irelands distribution was good. Ireland moves the ball quickly to feet and moves into space but our players are so thick when it comes to football intelligence. Delph wants too much time and N'Zog keeps trying to dribble....into a player instead of just keeping it simple. I think Jenas will come in for Delph.

I get the impression something is wrong with N'Zogbia, he gets the ball and freezes, never seen that in him before.

spot on about Nzog , seems to run into 3 players , instead of passing it simple to a Villa player.

[JJ-AV]

Gabby was fantastic. Bannan and Collins did well.

Dunne is shit, he's a decent last ditch defender but he was at fault  for Newcastle's equaliser last week, the second goal on Tuesday and he's so flat footed for today.
