Other Games - 2016/17

[Villa in Denmark]

Watching the Manchester derby.

Is it just me or is Stirling an overrated, poor man's Tony Daley?

He seems to get worse every game. And as for the game, considering the money spent on that lot, what a sterile pile of poo (Fellaini sending off apart).

That's overselling it a bit.

[peter w]

To be fair he was done up like an Aguero kipper. Aguero gets into his face and because of the huge height disparity as he comes in Felaini just puts his head down to him. Aguero goes down - job done. I agree about Sterling - what exactly does he do? And he's oddly shaped. i watched him going off and he can't even walk properly. His arms are seemingly just pinned on and aren't correctly attached to his shoulders. He just looks weird.

Newcastle won their 14th away league game this season tonight which sets a new record for away league wins apparently. In comparison we have only won 4 away league games this season, so it's pretty clear where we must improve next season to get into the automatic promotion places.

Here's a quick comparison...

Villa
Home Wins: 12 (8th)
Away Wins: 4 (20th)

Brighton
Home Wins: 17 (1st)
Away Wins: 11 (3rd)

Newcastle
Home Wins: 14 (1st)
Away Wins: 14 (6th)

Maths isn't my strong point but your statistics are all to cock.

Until 4 minutes ago I had never seen a throw in hit the crossbar. I've now seen it twice in the York City v Forest Green match.

[Dave Cooper please]

I hate Forest Green. No real reason, I just hate them.

[Chris Jameson]

The bloke taking the throw ins for York can throw it further than some can kick it. My daughter just asked if one of the players was a dad who had won a competition to play. It's Jon Parkin, he's huge.

[kippaxvilla2]

Just the ten changes for Huddersfield.

[Dave]

Joe Lolley is playing though, so all will be fine

[kippaxvilla2]

Blues have missed a penalty and had Adams sent off straight red.

[dave shelley]

Blues have missed a penalty and had Adams sent off straight red.

And are winning 1-0!

I think you'll find they are accurate.

[PeterWithesShin]

How are 2 teams first for home form? How is Newcastle's away record 6th? I think that's what he means?

[danno]

If they have the most wins, Shouldn't Newcastle be first in the away table not sixth? 

[KRS]

Oooh I see it now. Just a typo...I put the Newcastle stats the wrong way around:

Newcastle
Home Wins: 14 (6th)
Away Wins: 14 (1st)
