The bloke in front of me didn't take too kindly to the Arsenal third goal. He stood on his seat, jumped up an down trying his best to break it (it may have cracked but modern seats are sturdy) and then stormed off.

"The first half was blinding, brilliant, international class," said Alex McLeish. "But it's never over, is it. I said to the boys at half‑time there's 45 minutes to go."

Shame he didn't say something about defending too.

Watched the game live on TV down here. Thought we had won it. Villa Fans brilliant. Can't really blame anyone.
Bloody annoyed. "Own" goal and two pens. Thought we were light in midfield but flippin'heck we need a player like Keano. Wee Barry excellent.  Bent finish incredible. Hey,  we can hold our heads high. Great game and no nonsense of AMcl negativity, we gave it a bloody good go. Well done Villa. Why do we go deep when in front?

Meh, how can a team play so well to then go and play so badly... great support from the Villa fans, shame the players couldn't react.

I feel like I've been raped.

That's a bit strong.

metaphorically speaking, but actually I have, but I won't go into it.

Wee Barry did plat some killer balls when he came on to be fair. If he is on his way it will be a big loss in the creativity department as he  and Ireland seem to be the only players we have that can see a pass and Ireland is wasted out on the wing.

Im not into this lynching of McLeish just yet! I did think with his rep that he would organise the defence though we really are a shambles. Hutton Warnock Collins Dunne and yes even Cuellar are all abysmal defenders. Go with Lichal Herd Baker and Clark. Ok we'll have to wait for the summer but get rid of the lot and get a centre half in who can lead from the front. look down at the lower leagues and pick a couple of gems. Kyle McFadzean from Crawley for a start. Take a chance on some of them. Our 'senior' defenders are basically "thick as pig shit!'. Get them out!

Kingy. Couldnt give a shit that all our defence are complete and utter wank stains. The real question is. What happened to you after the match?

A big loss? Bannan has contributed practically nothing in a Villa shirt. Incredibly overrated.

Get a feckin grip Saunders heroes. The whole defence is a shambles and you pick on a sub who was on for 10minutes?
