Just read about It in the sun absolute fucking disgrace have we really stooped to small Heath level.
Possibly the same prats that cheered him during the chelski game when he had an excellent game. I'm sure none of our players go out to have a bad game but sometimes they seem afraid to have the ball and Bennett is one of them.
I have said on other threads that at certain times the supporters at home make the players afraid to make a mistake. How can he be a good player against Chelsea not giving Eden hazard an inch then so many days later being slaughtered on the internet don't take much working out does it.

We Are aston villa football club we are above all that

Many years ago we had a left back called john Robson and know matter what he did he was the boo boy of the villa park crowd. If the hot dogs were cold it was his fault.if you got to the ground late it was his fault to, you get my drift.
Then one night game and I'm sure someone can recall it andy gray wasn't playing so we couldn't sing the "oh andy oh andy your the greatest the Holte end say".
So we started singing that song but putting his name in, and he had a superb game which he usually did anyway ,to be named in Alex cropleys best 11 you can't be a bad player can you. And from that night he was cheered every time he touched the ball.
Just shows what a bit of support can do for a player.

Uber_Lowey raises an interesting point. A conundrum make no mistake.

I think Springsteen has answered that as well as anyone could.
