Aston Villa v Newcastle United Post-Match Thread

[Goldie.7]

Rubbish. We Lost!!

[Monty]

Lambert's mistakes with the selection and formation were absolutely shocking, and that's what cost us that one.

[l_mckay]

Fucking pricks,can't even put two good halves together. Good job we are gunna sign a couple of players before Thursday oh wait......!

[neo_Villan]

No doubt some will say it was ok because we of the second half. Well it wasn't. We should never have gone 2-0 down in the first place! Lambert started Bent and proved to everyone it was the wrong decision by taking him off. He is clueless and should go now. Truly awful manager who makes McLeish look like Mourinho. Lambert out! Lerner Out!

Oh and we're going down 100% now.

[eamonn]

We're not relegated - it's still in our hands. But it's getting increasingly harder.
Get a couple of players in before the Everton game, play there with the same intensity as the second half tonight and we will we be fine.

[PeterWithesShin]

Unless there are injuries I can't see Bent starting again for a while.

[The Left Side]

We are a long ball team devoid of ideas, bannan, nzogbia, clark and bennett are not good players.

[Sleeping Giant]

Time to stop f**king about now. 442, energy and WIDTH!! Just like this second half performance. Sort it Lambert!

[hilts_coolerking]

If we can't get something from that, looking at our upcoming games, I think we're relegated now.

I think we can get something off West Ham but apart from that it's a bit daunting.  Reading away is going to be a biggie.

[ozzjim]

If we do go down, 0 points from Wigan, Southampton and Newcastle at home will be what did us.

Spot on Pete.

Spot on.


Their winner was a stunner. Our stunner smacks the post.

[onje_villa]

Dunno where that leaves us.

In some ways it's the worst of both worlds.

We lost again but not convincingly enough to make Lerner do something.

Not that I wanted us to lose.... but you get what I mean.

[PaulWinch again]

Bottom line is, tonight was about getting 3 points. Our first half display made that impossible, in spite of a good effort in the second. Our 'formation' in the first half killed us completely and ruined any chance we had. It was utterly clueless. The loss at home to Newcastle means regardless of second half there aren't really any positives.

[Summers]

No more 352. Ever.

Sell Bent. For anything, to anyone. Tomorrow. Use that to bring in a defensive midfielder, get Warnock back in at LB, sign NRC to sit on the bench for cover and bring in a cheap CB. Yes, even Curties Davies.

We can be saved. Save us.

[danlanza]

Utterly shambolic first half.  Shit or bust second half and we gave it a really good go but you can't turn up for 45 minutes and expect to win games.

And it looks like Wigan and QPR have picked up points so we're worse off than we were before.  Not a good night.

Phil Thompson was raving about us second half on SSN. Shame we couldn't put the chances away.

[The Situation]

After losing to Bradford and Millwall in one week can Villa get even more worse? yes they can!
