Merge my effort mods please.

I'm convinced we would have won that if it wasn't for the brainless fcuk wit.

Are you angry?

"We're having a part when Lerner dies" got a good airing. Better side until the sending off and then it was only a matter of time.

I managed to get on the first tube out of Upton Park, which is no mean feat. Silverlinings and all that.

Ayew and the ref cost us tonight. Ayew was an idiot and the ref was yet another who gave us nothing. Our board's idiocy was shown by our bench tonight. Also I'm afraid Gil was very poor. Good fight from the rest and Richards did well.

Bit unfair on Gil. Was finding space until the sending off then shoe horned into a bank of four and stifled.

[Edvard Remberg]

Richardson is extremely poor

[ROBBO]

Remi showed his class tonight had the side well organised and until that idiot got himself sent off we were on top. We defended very well but it's hard with ten men for most of the game. Their second came about because we chased a result.

If Garde walked, would you:

A) Blame him?
B) Blame the 'board' for accepting?
C) Care?

No for all three for me.

We were pretty flawless for 17mins. Then as is when u are at the bottom we don't get a stonewall pen, a moment of madness and the game was over. Absolutely inevitable. Ref was really poor, Bacuna was worse. Gil was our best player before the red then got shifted to a position where he was completely rubbish and cost us for the goal unfortunately. Well done to Richards, Bunn,  Veretout, Lescott and Okore.

I reckon we would have taken at least a point had he not been sent off

But you can't not get decisions like the ones we didn't tonight and you are fucked before you start

Bar I tried was showing some team against  Marseilles, glad I missed the game

Piss poor from Ayew, should be ashamed of himself.  Worst ref performance I've seen all season, he set the tone for them to get away with anything and could easily have sent off Noble and Collins if he'd applied the laws properly.

From the team they tired which is understandable but I thought we were the better team in the first half and Gueye, Richards and Okore in particular had very good games and didn't deserve to lose that.  Gil was poor and should've been replaced sooner but not by Richardson who is the worst player I've seen in a villa shirt for years and I included fat blokes playing at power league, his first touch is a fucking disgrace for a professional and he looks like he's in high heels the way he prances around.

Another three points goes begging. I believe that. In an alternate universe, where Ayew acts like a proper striker and forgets about the defender doing not much, we have two up top and a 1-0 win. For a 2-0 win West Ham were very bad.

[Goldie.7]

Shout out to Bacuna for getting paid by pretending to be a footballer.

[VillaAlways]

Didn't watch. We were crap.

I presume you mean Were we crap ?

[CT Villan]

Another penalty denied - looked a replica of Cisshoko's a few weeks back.

...and as for Ayew, utter stupidity and of course he's now out for 3 games...good job we don't need a striker. We were on top when he succumbed to Cresswell's agitation.

[Clampy]

Thought we defended pretty well in the circumstances. A moment of madness has possibly cost us getting something out of the game even if only a point and if we'd been given the penalty, then who knows. Bunn, Richards and Lescott were great. Bringing on Richardson was just a waste of time, the game was too quick for him.
