Aston Villa v Manchester City Post-Match Thread

Hull next week. Anyone remember the last time we won 3 on the trot in the league?

The icing on top of the icing on top of the icing on yesterday's cake was as I walked down the steps after the game a young boy aged about seven walked straight up to me without warning, stared me straight in the eyes from about my waist height and said "We were great today" and walked off to join whoever he was with.   I suspect he was not with anybody.   I suspect he was God.

If I was God I wouldn't bother with being omnipresent at 3pm on Saturdays. I would go down the Villa.

Will be a tough game , they have started well and Bruce will have them fired up for it , but I agree its a game that is very winnable and would set us up nicely for the break.
I am flying off to menorca next Monday so will be delighted if we are in the top 8 or higher when I arrive there .

Vlaar was excellent yesterday and that is really pleasing.

Sounds more like the son of God.

(Although the only confirmed sighting of Jesus yesterday was the one Luna had in his pocket)

Lovely day today isn't it?

Just re-watching football first, I think Trevor Francis' pathetic commentary is summed up after he's desperate for the Weimann-won freekick to have been incorrectly awarded when he says "Vlaar has got, one shot on him, I think he'll take this on". Cue Bacuna absolutely bending it beautifully right into the top corner!

Yep, agree. If you want even more entertainment go on Man City's Blue Moon Fans Forum Post-Match Thread. Great comments on there.....Milner is shit according to them, Championship player at best! Hopefully we can do some sort of deal in January as I think Pellegrini will bomb him out.

[Colhint]

its better than that, its wonderful. I live about 15 miles from Hull and at my sons Rugby practice there was some lovely chat between me and the other Dads. They are all Hull fans. There view is they were expecting the match to be a must win, but after their recent exploits its more it would to be  good to get something out of the game.

I just heard Linekar say west Midlands 2 Manchester 0 .when did that last happen ?

Now that would be good .

I'm still enjoying the win I had a great day out at yesterday's match let's hope we can continue with this form roll on Hull.

I think  the fact that it was such a turnaround makes it more pleasing , at half time there no way I could have seen us scoring 3 times and it was as unexpected as it was delightful - one of those games that will long be remembered.

Typical.  Had to sit through Hearts v Dundee United (0-0) whilst we actually win a game at home. 

Wifi coverage was shit in the ground, so only found the result out after.  Thought it was an optical illusion on the screens at first, that maybe I hadn't entered the Tynecastle boozer by the ground at all, but instead some hazy Amsterdam Jazz Cafe.  That or the Fourth Dimension. 

From the bit I could see later in the evening, it looks like we were fortunate (that could just be the BBC's typically skewed coverage, mind).   But Lady Luck has been sticking two fingers up to us for at least the past two seasons, so it's nice to get one in our favour for a change.
