West Bromwich Albion v Aston Villa Post Match Thread

And no, I didn't clap on 9 minutes. Quite a few in our end did though.

I'm not buying this we were the better side for 20 mins. Yes we had lots of the ball in our half around our box but we did nothing going forward whilst WBA had 2 very decent shots on Brad in that period.
Lamberts negative team selection and shocking set up and tactics cost us the game against a very poor WBA side who were there to be beaten.

Would it surprise anyone that the area's other band of morons were actually chanting 'boing, boing' at their game?

We were the better team for 20 minutes whether you 'buy it' or not, even the Albion fan who lives opposite me conceded that.

Did we have any attempts on goal in those 20 minutes?

No efforts on goal when we were the better team doesn't really say that much though does it?

[Clampy]

I don't think either side were that great yesterday.

"Fuck the Albion!"

They're not worthy of such a catchy beat.

listening on AVTV, it was funny to hear Jack Woodward thinking it was their fans singing " up the albion"

That doesn't surprise me. I don't see the point of chants/songs that either include the opposition name (eg yesterday's }#%^ the Albion) or attempt to hijack one of their tunes (eg You'll never work again, at ANfield). Unless you're in amongst the singers, it just sounds like support for the opposition.

It was disappointing to hear some people in our end actually booing during the 9th minute applause

I didn't hear any booing to be honest.

Yet they pulled 2 good saves out of brad in that period and foster barely touched the ball ? I'm not following your logic

I am not sure how a wall of noise telling the Albion they can go forth and multiply classes as support for the opposition.

[silhillvilla]

That chant must have lasted 10+ mins ! Very loud and clear from the west stand . One of them lot leaned to me and said "at least they're in tune". I gave an ironic smile back

It did, it also lead into some very other loud songs. It even shut the gimp with the drum up.

Honestly, Palace and the Albion should be relegated two divisions for having drums.

I think Leicester have one as well.

Oh and did anybody clock the song the Albion played at the end as we were walking out? 'Who Are You' by The Who. A bit childish but i'm sure done with total innocence.
