Felt sorry for Gana today he was employed as a one man midfield I saw no formation anywhere just a load if individuals playing off the cuff. This team remind me so much of the tommy doc relegation team and sherwood as Doc himself, constantly changing a team with an overload if offensive players and no formation.
I fear he will go in the next few weeks but this squad won't save us whoever comes in I'm afraid.
We're fucked doomed and championship bound.
It's been coming and now it's here.
It hurts like hell  to see my club suffer like this but I think it's enevitable now.
Swansea were there for the taking just like Chelsea last week, we weren't up to it and I can see us finishing bottom unless there's a miracle.
Off to get more pissed.

...and to top it all off, I'm trying to think of a word to describe some of the Swansea fans afterwards.

Neanderthals is the best one without being offensive.


What were they doing?

Trying to provoke people, anyone, even ones in their 60s by acting the tough guys. Running round with their trousers round their ankles. They were fucking pathetic.

I actually thought Gana was really good today, but Bacuna was not far behind and never thought I would say that.

All of them? Or just a handful of fuckwits like every team has?

Just look at who was not in the 18 today, Veretout, Clark, Okore and Kozak. Is the squad that bad? The manager is a fecking joke, that team selection was a joke and his lack of subbing a very tired left back was the last straw for me and cost us the game as Swansea started targeting us there

Sinclair and Illori also.  That's 3 straight home games Gil has not started, surely he's the type we need in tight matches to unlock the door, away from home he's a luxury perhaps but at home I'd start him.

Quite right, that isn't a poor squad IMO.

I'd argue the back up 11 is stronger than Tim's 1st choice.

                 Bunn
     Illori Okore Clark Amavi
           Sanchez Veretout
        Adama Gil Sinclair
                Kozak

With Gardner, Crespo and N'Zog from the bench.

I reckon they'd beat today's starting 11

tim Sherwood is an absolute cock, fuck him off, Randy and tom are clueless and taking us down, upshot is randy looses fucking millions (bothered) and we may then be sold to a buyer who picks up a bargain in the championship brings us back and we start again.

randy will be remembered as a bit of a bungling buffoon who played the game and lost a few million, and certainly despised by all Villa

let them enjoy their day out at villa park. They must love coming here, like most away fans. The only use for villa park seems to be for away trips, allowing Neanderthals to enjoy themselves at a once famous old ground at the expense of us long suffering mugs

Well he really should have been given the boot 3 weeks ago before the international break. I've been hoping the delay has been to give them more time to sound out the likes of Moyes, Rodgers etc.

But after today's result he must go now, if he's not gone by Monday then this Board will deserve everything they get. TS lost them with his blunders and subsequent comments blaming the side following the Leicester fuck up. That trashed this side mentally and he's done it consistantly since the dumb shit.

Need to sack TS and get in a half decent Manager and a very decent sports Psychologist and we can still rescue this. But it must happen now!

I agree that the Leicester fuck up was the catalyst for the situation we now find ourselves.

Irrespective of any other points, Sherwood's conduct in this evening's post match interviews should secure his departure. Flippant, obtuse, resigned, deflated, deflective, beaten. I know our shower are inept but come on, surely not?

He's a gonner, no doubt about it, managers are rarely sacked weekends though.

I didn't think we were that bad today but it was another defeat which is not good enough really. Gana was great and Hutton had a decent enough game. The ref was dire though.

I wont go into that, but what I will say is there are lots of players there that premiership teams would want in their teams. My thoughts are Tim did not want Amavi (why not) and Veretout (why not), Amavi has been excellent tbh.
