Aston Villa v Stoke City Match Thread

[Fergal]

nice to know the commentators do their homework.....

[SamTheMouse]

They're scared shitless of Benteke. The guy's getting an aura about him already...

QPR losing Sunderland losing

Two clubs with a ****** for a manager getting beat....

was good to see the Stoke fans joining in with the 19th min applause for Stan

[Astral Weeks]

Just got in a couple of minutes ago. How are we doing? Looks OK from what I've seen so far.

Indeed, I hope we only beat them 3-0 now

Not much fun without VS

[django]

We are defending well when Stoke break. Really good performance so far. Just need to score

[hilts_coolerking]

Not quite working for us at the sharp end yet.

[Rigadon]

Twice now we've had good wide positions and nobody has been bombing into the area.

[hilts_coolerking]

Pubey losing again.  Shame

Birtles: "I could say something but I won't."  Hell of a mantra for a commentator that, Birtles you div.

[Irish villain]

Just in the door, I miss anything?

[devilla]

Need to get more players in the box when the crosses come in, nobody on Benteke's pull back there and Gabby's cross earlier.

Very good apart from that though. Really, really need the goal now though.
