Aston Villa v Manchester City Match Thread

[Mister E]

Atmosphere is dead!

[Irish villain]

Sky are blaming our fans for our poor form.

[Chipsticks]

Any idea how the protest went? Not good I bet.

From the SkySports score centre text feed:

"the mcleish protest turned into a low-key affair, attended by no more than 100 fans. There were a few banners such as "Had your chance McLeish Out", and a few chants among the lines of "You'll be sacked in the morning", but it was ultimately more for amusement value of other Villa fans looking on."

So, it turned out exactly as we all expected.

who is it that's spouting such shite?

[Chipsticks]

So far on 5Live, Alan Green has managed to slag off Heskey, Bent, The Villa fans, McLeish, Our creative talent, and the weather. And we're only 16 minutes in.

What did you expect? he really is an obnoxious cock, the very tip of a penis.

As much as his comments are angering me, it's worrying how much he sounds like a member of our own fan base with those comments.

Not the way I heard it.

[D.boy]

Atmosphere is flatter than a witches tit.

So deflated are the crowd that they can't even be arsed to boo Gareth Barry.

Embarrassing for those involved I suppose, mind you if we get hammered here today they will wandering round looking for people to say 'I told you so' to.

Sports reporters only ever talk to other sports reporters. They have no idea what real people actually think.

[pauliewalnuts]

Too right, Sky, the kits fucking are difficult to distinguish between





although that might be feed quality. oops.

[pauliewalnuts]

Mind you, if you just think "with ball = Man City", "running around without ball = us" you're ok.

Hodge might make a comeback..

[Martyn Smith]

Why do these summarisers always speak such utter shit?  AM hasn't done anything wrong? Has he seen the league table?  Also when will they realise that we ain't that bothered where AM came from as much as we are bothered about him being a shit manager?

It's Gary Neville isn't it, what do you expect of that utter twat?...

[Matt Collins]

Terrible game so far. I guess that plays in our favour. No cohesion to the midfield as was pretty predictable from the line up. Bored
