One from the other side. http://thebirminghampress.com/2015/09/villa-triumph/

I don't know if I was watching a different game but I honestly thought they were shit and had only a five minute spell in the first when they were on top, other than that they were either as shit as we were or chasing shadows in he second.

Again, if they don't like it that other teams don't have a crook in charge or get pitiful crowds meaning they have a quid or two, maybe they shouldn't bother entering competitions where they might be drawn against them.

Andy's one of their brighter supporters but I can't remember a time when their overwhelming attitude was an Albion-lite "We're only a little club, we did ever so well and our fans was ever so good". I wonder if it was because they expected to win so they had to make an excuse up quickly.

Did they? I mean *really* expected to win? i thought they only looked like the had a sniff when we inavriably helped create something for them. We didn't play well for a large part and they were nowhere near good enough to take advantage. Free-kick first half, 10 yards outside the box. Chips it over the wall into Guzan's arms. The were useless.

I thought they were far less shit than us tbh in the first half, all down to Tims tactics though apparently!!! Lets be honest and say they were the better team in the first half and we fecked up the tactics

They are impossible to reason with, I had one trying to tell me that they were great fans because they clapped their players off and sang a little ditty. They'll struggle to get 16k against Rotherham on Saturday, loyalty is a bit more than trying to get a ticket to watch them play Villa every five years.

Nothing, and I include us in this on far too many occasions, screams smalltime more than boasting that you made more noise than the home fans after you've lost.

And it's even smaller time if it just ain't true.

Not sure they expected to win, but they definitely really fancied their chances. Let's be honest, there were more than a few on here not fancying us.

The reality is though, even if they are doing ok in the little leagues, they are still shit. They played a side low on confidence, that had an awful first half, most of their lot are saying they played really well, and they still created fuck all. We then played well for 15-20 mins and tore them apart. If they somehow did jam their way to promotion, they would get battered on a regular basis in the PL.

We can talk all night about them being shit but they were better than us first half. Second half totally different with the right tactics

Don't see that at all, we were better first half an hour, then went shit, them the same. Second half they were lucky to get nil.

Is that why we booed them off at half time? We were shocking first half and the tactics were totally wrong. I stick up for Sherwood as much as I can, but his comments after the game were useless and Rowetts were spot on, if he had meant those tactics and they had worked, would we have booed them?

You might have done. We were shit first half, but the important bit for now, so were they, and shitter than us for most of it. We are more discerning and them, more accepting of their position.

I didn't actually but many did and we were shite. I disagree that they were as bad, they were just less shite.
