Was Kevin keegan watching the game?  Did he do any sort of research?  He just said Gabby was 22 and that Villa fans were confused as to why he hasn't been in the team!  Then he said that after his goal Mcleish might think about playing Clark in midfield.  He gets paid to talk this rubbish, unbelievable.

I know.... I couldn't believe it.

3 away wins on the bounce
Arse! I forgot about the Stoke game.... 3 away wins and a draw.

Unbeaten away from home for nearly 2 months. Only 2 defeats in 11 away games this  season so far.

Which makes it all the more frustrating that our home form has been so dire.
Its because the home support turns too easily and rarely get behind the team!

I heard an interesting comment on the radio that all 11 players played for each other today. Did leaving N'Z out have an impact on this? From what I saw last Monday it was a great call by The Manager

Please ensure Warnock never starts a game for us again.

I see Keegan's been sniffing petrol again

I think all the products he use to put on his perm in the 70s has finally effected his brain.

I think the Arsenal games showed that if the effort is there and the style of play isn't predictable the supporters will get behind the team. I take your point though that it doesn't help that there is less patience at home and people get edgy faster.

Tomorrow, live on ITV1, after the Peterborough v Sunderland game, probably at about 5:20ish.

I'd rather see Delph given a go as its probably too early for Stevens.

Lichaj is back in training and he played for the US in the Gold Cup last summer. Played very well too. I'd like to see him given a chance.
