Aston Villa v Stoke City Match Thread

[Rigadon]

Pulis barking orders like a deranged nazi general.  Bit harsh maybe.

So frustrating watching this yardage football from them. The throw in from their own box, to make 30 yards and then bang another down the line.

The Fonz scores for Blackpool

Birtles will be askin Santa for a half season ticket at Villa Park at this rate. The man's lovin the Villa!

[Irish villain]

Christ, low attendance

[Fergal]

If we all WIBBLE we will win....

[Toronto Villa]

the game is going exactly as Stoke have planned. Bore the shit out of everyone then hopefully score with a punt into the box. We need to keep doing what we are doing and hope that the team playing football wins at the end of the day.

Each one of those empty seats represents a football purist.

Quite.  Although to be fair we've not been very good in the final third.  All this aerial stuff into their box is a total waste of time.

Surely Holman should be trying to get in the box to join the striker(s) when we get the ball wide
