Aston Villa vs. West Brom Post-Debacle Thread

[Legion]

No. Never.

It became all the rage last year for whoppers to come on here and drone on about how they'd be doing their washing or trimming their rose bush rather than be watching the Villa, with some boss eyed smugness.

If you don't care, fuck off.

Tell you why I've finally give up dick head, I was diagnosed with a serious illness 7 months ago, after 2 operations and another one pending, i worry about me and family from now on and whether I'll still be here next you fucking twat.
If I decide to come away from being a loyal fan for 31 years, that's my choice, don't get me wrong, I've bitched occasionally over the years, but always backed the club through thick or thin.
But when you have no health, no money, no job because I ain't fit for work, you realise there are more important things in life.

That's very harsh, considering no-one has a crystal ball and could possibly know how the state of your health is.

At least wish the man well, christ. I tend to think telling any fellow supporter to "fuck off" is "very harsh"

Hope things improve, chin up mate. All the best.

Well after our recent surrenders here it was refreshing to see an Albion side actually bully you on your home turf.

I thought we deserved the win and that's the best we've played under Pulis. We were well organised as usual, stifled the game but was a lot more effective with the ball.

Equally, you lot were very poor. No tempo with the ball, plenty of pointless possession and then bottled it when approached by Fletcher and Yacob. There was no movement upfront and every time I saw you cross the ball came as a relief because I knew there was no chance of your guys beating McAuley, Dawson or Evans in the air. There was plenty of laughing and criticism on here when we signed Evans but I thought he was top notch yesterday.

I think the worrying thing for you lot is that even in the second half when you were chasing the game, we still controlled the tempo of the game and created more chances.

The one noticeable thing was how much you missed Fabian Delph. He normally controls the game against us but not having him there was such a relief - nobody to link midfield and attack and his industrious style which sees him normally terror our midfield and centre halves.

That's a pretty fair assessment.

You got into us really quickly and Berahino ( I think) got in front of Lescott to get a header on target in the 2nd minute. For the first twenty minutes you controlled possession and set the tempo and we struggled. Our best spell was probably the next 20 minutes where We broke a few times but completely lacked cohesion and movement, and we ended up turnng sideways allowing you to get organised. Other than the block on Gil's shot from Gabby's run we created nothing, and the second half was an exercise in futility.

A poor game won by the marginally less shit team.

I still think we need to show patience. Most of us recognised it would take a few months for a team to emerge after the turnover of players this summer which has been compounded by injuries. Like most people I am still undecided on Sherwood but he at least deserves time to see what his players can do once they are bedded in.

Agree Chris, I'm not happy with the way Villa are playing at the moment, but not panicking quite yet. Give them another month or so to bed in properly.

Or properly start panicking

Didn't haver the heart to contribute to this thread until this morning.  What worried me most during the closing stages was the lack of belief I saw from the Villa players.  They looked like they had given up long before the final whistle.  It seems to be this season is going to be grim.  Again.
