Stoke City vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

One thing I want to add, Walters is an odious little shit.

Big shit brickhouse you mean, the size of 'im. What did he do though?

How , just how, does he manages to earn money as a top flight FOOBALLER?

Well, I was out and so relied  on the R5L commentary and  - TBF - Danny Mills was very complimentary about us.

Which is nice.

Stoke have the worst form in 2013 in the P-ship which is why I thought we were in with a shout; thank God we pulled it off.

Onwards and upwards.

Unlike Francis on TV, struggled to say anything complimentary about Villa unless it was unavoidable.

I've always thought TF was quite complimentary about us whenever I've listened to him commentate.

It was an unbelievably shit clearance from Adam. Like a slow full-toss. It virtually invited Lowton to have a ding at goal. I dread to think what Pulis said to him afterwards.

Not sure Adam was much to blame. The ball came out of one of the Spheres; Stratosphere, Ionosphere - take your pick. It was a rather pleasant and unexpected surprise for mankind what happened next! Hopefully this small step is a huge leap for the next generation Villa.

Someone on MOTD said he'd never strike a ball that well again.  He's done it twice this season!  We need to adopt it as a tactic asap.  Instead of shooting in the area, the forwards should balloon the ball back into midfield for Lowton to chest it and smash it home.

Watching MOTD last night, couldn't remember the last time we had four players going forward and no opposition players in sight other than the goalie, for the third goal.

A special thanks to Joe C for his suggestion that we head for that hellhole - something I wouldn't otherwise have considered. I spent most of the game thinking how much better that 1-0 we were, & when they equalised there was a bit of a 'here we go again' feeling, although we stayed behind the boys brilliantly. When Lowton scored I have a clear memory of telling myself to stop screaming 3 times before I actually managed to shut up! On a final note, the experimental cider drinking on just one Greggs pasty was probably not the best idea I have ever had. I don't actually remember getting through my front door and Mike found me on the floor! All in all - this is what away days should always be made of!

Kenwyne Jones was awful again as well. We had a local radio station on as we were waiting to leave the coach park and those Sturkies were not a happy bunch.

He said something like Agbonlahor is using his intelligence!  Then Gabby dives in the area and starts waving his fingers about for some reason.

TF also stated that a Stoke player (forgotten who it was) couldnt possibily carry on after a foul....then he did just that!

I don't think you'll see that scenario in any other PL game, it's quite extraordinary!

Agreed , cant think of another instance like it off the top of my head.

And hangovers don't seem so bad when you wake up and remember that the Villa won and that's why you feel like this.

I'm glad Christian took it on himself. Any other time in that situation we would have passed to Sylla who is offside.

I'm also glad the two were that side as it meant Begovic leaned that way anticipating the pass and Benteke had the right side to score in.

I would like to hear the former Iraqi information Minister's take on this situation?
