West Ham vs Aston Villa Post Match Thread

Just when you think it can't get any worse.   Spurs are well and truly in the title race.

Is he out of the picture though?

Hollis has been quoted as saying that he can't recommend the shareholder does  this or that. Lerner still has the final say regardless of the crap Hollis and Fox pedal to the press.

In the sense that Hollis has free reign provided we only spend what we earn (or not as the case maybe) then yes he's off the scene.

The shit will really hit the fan on Saturday when we go 0-1 down.

Having watched the sending off again you can clearly see Creswell pinch the back of Ayews neck which causes the reaction.

Not one player could look Garde in the eye and shake his hand on way off pitch .

And I know this is stating the obvious - but something ain't right .

Whether they were annoyed / embarrassed at losing again or there is a serious rift between manager and players - it looked very bad to me .

Wouldn't surprise me if he walked very soon - sad times .

If you've just lost why would you be shaking the manager's hand, why would he want to shake yours?

To me it shows they're all pissed off with the outcome (as they should be), no smiles, no hand shakes just pissed off, and, leave me alone for a while stance, just like I and most of us feel after most games this season.

It's not even true, i watched and saw several of them shaking his hand.

Correct I saw a few of them do it as he was waiting for them all to come off.  Nothing to see here.

I'm off to finish "Making a Murderer". Cheer myself up.

I an owner of a football club is dead in the morning, we will support you in saying that it was a crime of passion.

Of course..... It's the season of the perfect storm.

I'm not fussed about whatever spurs are doing.

Oh god the highlights are on - noble - not messi. I'm off to see villa at Leeds next season with my mate. Lerner complete tosser - I remember seeing same friend when Harry kewell saved them happy and gutted when they were relegated and now is arms length to the crap that follows Leeds - he was a season holder and went home and away for 25 years. Out shitness could know no bounds unless people turn up and believe - Lerner is the master of doom - well done that man.

First of all i'm very drunk

I'd just like to say how proud I am, regardless of how much the tickets were subsidised, of the Villa fans, the same faces that I know rocking up on a week day, while the game is on TV, and getting behind the team as they did tonight.

The London Lions had a cracking turn out tonight and I'm really looking forward to next year, where ever we'll be playing, I met some top Villa lads from Leicester on the tube who deserve a big hug and with whom we had great fun with on the tube in to Upton Park.

My mate had a corporate ticket and and was complimented throughout the game on our support tonight and it was mentioned how they wish their support was so vocal. I walked through West Ham station with a West Ham fan who was genuinely disappointed with us going down.

The more shit we are the more I love them, I've just rolled out of 5 guys slaughtered having met the best group of people I could ever choose to meet, sometimes the shitter we are the more I love em'

 I personally can't wait for next year, it may not last if we get stuck there but I'm going to have a lot more fun.

We didn't deserve to lose if we had ayew on the pitch but he deserved to get sent off. Idiot cost us the game and the next 3 potentially - but he did, and we do. This is completely it - we're a mile better than we were under sherwoods completely clueless tactics but we need another season to teach our so called professionals how to position themselves and be fit - frightening times.

The great thing about Aston Villa is the massive family that it is. As with all family's there are disputes and disagreements and even unwanted people
marrying into the family-Lerner,Fox and Hollis. At some stage they'll be divorced but we'll still be family.I must be a glutton for punishment as I'm looking forward to the Norwich game and hopefully a massive turnout to get behind Remi and the team.....we're only ten points from safety and if the team play how we've played in the last four league games we're at least having a crack at it .

1 win in 13 and no attempt to get back in the game after we went behind.  And still the mugs and sheep defend this utterly clueless manager.  Yes the board are a joke, but I hope to god he's gone by the morning.  I hate the guy.  Worst manager we've ever had.

Are you ok,mentally?

Hate Garde? Worst manager ever? Did you start supporting the club in November?

Of course,we are all entitled to our opinions, but I think you need to have a glass of water and a long lie down in a dark room.

Love it kingthing!

I can't help but think with how things were looking in the first 15 minutes, Well on top, game against Norwich on Saturday, thinking we could be 4 points from safety come Saturday night.

And then Ayew is a fast and it's all change. But seeing how close we could still have been, makes the transfer window even more frustrating.
