West Bromwich Albion v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[thick_mike]

Just flicked over to wetbum.com, they're more depressed than us. Some of them saying they'd rather get relegated than watch that turgid shit every week. I'd love to sell them our relegation tickets.

For the first time ever I would consider relegation as a lesser evil than having to watch the Albion every week. They're an abomination and prolonged exposure to that team may cause blindness.

Football is a hobby; it's meant to be joyous and fun. They're the antheisis of that. They're sub-Stoke.

I watched the game earlier and although we're hardly in a position to throw stones the Bitters really are shite. I'll be surprised if Pulis is there next season.

His comments about us afterwards were so smalltime I'm almost embarrassed for them.

I read those this morning as well. It was his way of papering over the embarrassment of having no shots on goal at home.

Defence was a big plus, if fit I think that's the four to play, if we can get Veretout back into the eleven and a decent forward on loan then we might start picking up a few more points.

I must confess that it took a few replays to see that it was a clear penalty so I can't blame the ref for not seeing it, at normal pace I wouldn't have given it either.

It's a bit of a double edged sword starting to pick up a bit of form as other clubs will be looking at players we want to keep thinking that they can actually play well in the PL.

Penalty all day long having just seen on MOTD

But not given - again

Too little, too late

True but two pens we've been denied would be 6 points and the table would look a lot better

Both as clear as clear for me. The way we are though I'm not so sure we would have scored them both! We clearly need better options up front now. Garde has seen that Gabby isn't the answer and Kozak and Sinclair are lacking too so we are desperately short and it's costing us dearly.

It would be 4 extra points, as we got 2 draws rather than wins.

[auntiesledd]

I only saw the 'highlights' on MOTD. We appeared to possess the cutting-edge of a small, non-setting jelly. I feel sorry for Mr G - as he's seemingly managed to sort out our defensive frailties using those he inherited: but he's got no striking resources that we're oh-so-desperately crying out for. Signing a quality forward is obviously the bare minimum in this window, but I fear it's about as likely as Westwood taking a decent corner. A nailed-on pen though - which we'd probably have been awarded if we weren't rock bottom &/or the Ref had been using his Guide Dog. Still, at least we aren't Olbeyun supporters suffering Pulis's abomination of the beautiful game. Every cloud...

#AVFC team v #WBA: Bunn, Richards, Okore, Lescott, Cissokho, Bacuna, Gana, Westwood, Gil, Ayew, Kozak. #WBAAVL

Now adding Veretout and Gestede who by the way was only on the pitch for a few minutes can someone tell me where the £84m of talent is there?

Is he taking the piss?

He is just deflecting blame

He also mentioned amount of games they played and they are looking to stay in the league so every point matters...

Tony Penis is an expert at deflecting the blame for his mind numbing brand of anti football. It's usually the refs fault. For someone with an awful lot to say about the rights and wrongs of refereeing decisions he had nothing to say about the blatant pen that lanky streak of piss Olson should of conceded.
For me Tony Pulis is a bullshitter of the highest  order. If he ever got given the Villa Park job I would not set a foot inside the ground.
As the saying goes "if West Brom were playing in my back garden I would draw the curtains"

[ozzjim]

I get that set of players to 46 million. Considering they spent 6 on Anichebe, 12m on Rondon, 6m on Evans , 8m on Chester on the bench, 4 on Foster etc I don't think they would be far off. Pulis was looking for a reason that they were so defensive and poor they made is look good.

Anyone after watching that game that would sooner have Pulis than Garde needs a good word with themselves.

[mr underhill]

I would however, much prefer their league position

10/10 for stating the obvious.

Lol...

So would I, but not if it meant being managed by Pulis

[clash city rocker]

Pulis has fallen into the trap that the Albion supporters have. They are fkin jealous of us..To them we are the people they want to be like.We may have our ups and downs but they know ultimately their place in the pecking order.
