Norwich City vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

Goals and highlights

Why would you even do that.

I go back to the fact, we had to win today. Garde picked a team that at best could contain and included Richardson and Calamity Clark.All Norwich had to do was put Ayew off his game and they did that by roughing him up.Once Clark nocked  the ball down nicely to set up thier goal it was over.

I understand him replacing 2 injury prone CHs and playing them next game as we have 2 experienced internationals to replace them. Maybe it's not unreasonable to expect Clark not to look like bambi on ice when a player runs at him or Hansel and Gretel in the Forest after bird seed had been eaten.

As for Richardson - he is the worse left back I have seen at Villa and bearing in mind I saw Bernie Gallacher play, that is no mean feat.

I'll ask the bottle of red wine I've just drunk in the last hour.

I have just spat masticated Dairy Milk all over my underpants.

I was in Richer Sounds today in Kingston buying a TV, while we were waiting to be seen an advert for BT sports came on all the TV's and showed the goals in FA Cup semi against Liverpool, it showed slow mo's of the fans celebrating and I was explaining to my son where I was sat...."it was the last time I was happy watching them" I said.

Must be th Malbec but watched the highlights back again. Our defenders are absolute professionals at marking space

Well just got back to Manchester after a 15 hour day including 10 hours of driving, 1 hour of services stops and 2.5 hours in the pub. The other 90 minutes was easily the worst performance of the season and was an absolute fucking disgrace from the Manager through to all the players. Team selection = v wrong despite seeing some of the logic behind it but we just don't have the luxury of being able to use our squad as it quite patently isn't good enough.

Also have we forgotten how to sing "you're not fit to wear the shirts"?

The first example of pointing was quality.

Ooh, ya bastard. You've made me want to watch it now.

I can see this team dropping straight through the Championship into League One......yes it's that bad!

No it isn't.

This is the third game I've missed home/away for the last three years.
Thank fu*k for that.
Had quite a nice day until I couldn't help myself from logging on to the bbc late this afternoon to find we were 1 down but doing ok. Then 2 down.
I am assuming the reaction on here is much more "honest" than the polite bbc version of events.
I've read the thread throughout and am now slightly more suicidal than I was a few days ago.

Baffled by the team selection but, therefore, not the performance.

Can hardly wait for the joyous 8 hour round trip to Sunderland and back on Saturday.

Have been thinking of getting a couple of needy rescue dogs, or two, for some time.
Now seems about right.

Does guzan save anything these days? Everything seems to go through him

[Dante Lavelli]

To be honest, I get zero pleasure from reading these threads but I have just seen the two goals so needed to vent. 
My god the defence is all over the place.  For both goals Richards was out of position or Garde has had a brain fart and played him at left back.

He's dreadful he really is.

Atleast we now know our fate, even the most optimistic amongst now should accept that's it. We've 8 months to prepare for the Championship.
