Aston Villa v Spurs - Match Thread

[Risso]

If there's one thing worse than being bed-bound with a slipped disc, it's watching this shite while doing it.

It's the no hope that kills you

Garde is not a winner.    Bye bye. 

David Moyes was the man for the job and we bottled it.

He would have done a good job for us

74 mins and no walk out at mass scale

I don't think some people realise what a huge effect the club betraying and lying to Remi Garde has had. And what an utter disgrace it was.

[Pat McMahon]

I think once we're mathematically doomed, Garde will start playing the kids. Most of the seniors are an absolute disgrace.

True, but I think Garde has played his part in this mess as well. He's contributed absolutely nothing to the cause, and his "I'm not getting much out of them in training" thing the other week was absolutely amateurish.
What a sorry mess this club has been turned into, but let's not forget it's been nearly 6 years in the making.

For me it all started to go wrong during the latter days of Martin O'Neil. Having successfully f**ked off our better young players and replaced them with over-payed non-entities he completely dissilussioned Lerner when he threw his toys out the pram, quit and then won an indudtrial tribunal against the club. Nothing has been right with the owner and, hence the club, since then.

Give me overpaid nonentities any day of the week. I'd settle for 6th from bottom never mind 6th

Would have done better granted.  But a miserable git.

It's hard to tell with so few there!

This. That fateful evening in August of 2010 set into motion this downward spiral that now looks to have left the club at its lowest ebb in a quarter of a century.

Not with these players he wouldn't.

Me too.

beating Spurs was always going to be tough. It's just the manner in which we go about giving these games away. Not just today but pretty much all season.

I think he would have got more than our current useless incumbent

Every manager in the professional game has to deal with what they are given and every single one of them has to get results to keep their jobs. There's of course no debating who is the major reason we're in this mess, that rests on Randy, but Remi has run out of excuses now and he's clearly not the man who is going to take this club forward. Too many bridges have been burned. I don't even see the point him going through the motions until the end of the season.

The organisers called it off apparently, but it's back on for the Chelsea game.  Piss ups and breweries spring to mind.
