Aston Villa vs Chelsea Post-Match Thread

[PeterWithesShin]

A mention for that much-maligned group, Chelsea supporters. Well, those that stayed til the end for Stan anyway. Thank-you. The rest of them behaved like cocks.

Hardly a peep from them on Witton Lane before the game, I started to wonder if any had traveled. Were great during the 19th minute, some even held up the poster from the programme. Then they turned in propa nawty geezers.

Back home. John Terry is a c***. The only player i've ever been happy to see stretchered off. Because he's a c*** and sums everything I hate about the modern game.

P.s.
John Terry is a c***.

This.

Personally, I hope he's snapped his achilles, or whatever he hurt, and it ends his career.

I don't like Terry, but wishing a career-ending injury on any player is plain wrong.

There were probably 40,000 people who'd agree with me when he was stretchered off

You can add another one to the 40,000. I can't think of anything bad enough for the odious little tosser

I normally have this rule, but as this is a man who would quite easily try to end another players career and then walk away as if nothing as happened, I suspend it for him.

Is pretty much how i'd feel. I wouldn't wish serious injury on any player normally, but in the case of the racist cheat i'm not so sure. I don't think i've ever hated a player as much as I do him.

Look at how he was jeered and mocked when injured, I can't recall that much venom aimed at a player by the VP crowd before either. Then look at how Fat Fwank was applauded off, just to show it wasn't pettiness or anything.

For me Terry is on the same 'complete scum' level as Lee Bowyer and Joey Barton.  Him being likened to Bobby Moore and guaranteed an England spot for the last 10years is the main reason why I really don't give a shit about England.  Like the others if he wasn't rich and famous he'd be in prison but thanks to the stupid money in football he's rich enough to do what he likes.  I've said before, If I reffed a game with him in it I tell him at the coin toss that If I heard him speak complain once he'd be in the book, I reckon he'd last about 5 minutes before the first yellow and at most another 10 before he was in the shower.  His reputation is based almost entirely on him 'chirping' at the ref for 90minutes and trying to ref the game himself.  See also Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney, England will be far better off when the lot of them are long gone, so long as we don't replace them with like for like.

Yes, it is wrong.
However, that cheating, repulsive, vile, thug deserves whatever ills come his way.

He will die a sad, bitter and twisted man.

Our useful exuberance has been to our benefit in recent weeks but it cost us today - we should have seen it out and taken the point. That said, plenty to be encouraged about - we certainly don't look like relegation fodder at all any more and I think we'll be fine.

So die as he lives then.

The piece of shit even tries to claim his innocence. It's just one of many many reasons I cheered when he went off.

[SamTheMouse]

It occurs to me that something like 190 of Lampard's 202 goals have come against us - well, more than against any other side, anyway. Which would seem to confirm we have lacked a proper defensive mid for years now and are uniformly bollocks at tracking back midfield runners. Something that Lambert could really do with addressing next season.

There was a Chelsea fan sat behind me with his young daughter,
they never said a word, but you just know don't you,

anyway at half time I turned to him and said 'are you Chelsea'  he said yes, I said have you ever seen Chelsea play as bad as that, he said never, they were as bad as he could remember
Which just goes to show we should have took advantage

After the Chelsea fella got sent of we became to cock sure and complacent, we are not that good yet, and we should have been going for the jugular, rather than thinking another goal would come with time,
Benteke got sent of which changed the whole pattern of the match

Good display, but gutted as we were the better team today, and lost it through over confidence and lack of experience

[PeterWithesShin]

Be very funny if he misses the final. Although what odds that the brave and selfless John Terry will manage to rise from his deathbed to collect the trophy if they win?

Again

[taylorsworkrate]

To be honest I thought the only thing the ref got wrong was not to send off Benteke for the elbow.

WHAT!!!!!
Were you watching a different game to the rest of us? Or are you a closet Chelsea fan?

Terry should have gone 1st half for the foul on Sylla when through on goal.
I haven't time to list all the others

I don't think Terry should have been sent off for the foul on Sylla, as Cashley was covering. Now whether he'd have got there or not is a matter for debate, but it was about 35 yards from goal and the referee would have been guessing at best. I'd have been well pissed off if Vlaar or Baker had been sent off in similar circumstances.

I don't think any of our penalty appeals were penalties either. Again I wouldn't have been happy if they'd gone against us.

I suppose Baker was unlucky to pick up a yellow for his challenge, but that's more the nature of the modern game than any big mistake by the referee.

So I reiterate, the major decisions in the game, I believe the referee got right.

Doubt he would have been selected to play in any case - dirty weasel.

Less of that please. From the site rules.

Please do not accuse people of being, for example, "a bluenose" or "a manyoo fan" because you don't like or agree with what they are saying.

Sorry, mate

oops, I posted my previous reply without looking further.

No worries.

That has just put my back up again regarding Howard Webb!!! Grrrrrrrr
