Newcastle vs Aston Villa (please, please win) Match Thread

[mr underhill]

We're going down again

[AlexAlexCropley]

I get that we're going to concede.Don't care. I care that we're not scoring and look like we're not going to.

[Jimbo]

It's all so *sighs* Villa. We all know what's going to happen.

[manic-road]

I hope that was our shit half.

[London Villan]

Like mccormack we don't play to Hogan's strengths. What was the point in buying him?

[jwarry]

Twice in forty seconds Newcastle able to stroll across vast stretches of pitch where Taylor is supposed to be.

I thought he played alright to be honest. He defends better than Amavi

[BOB MANSFIELD]

Not out of this by any means.

I take it you don't watch us very often?

Every chance I get, of course. But the first half has been as good as any we've produced since Brighton IMO.
Pressing well. Passing well. Lots of effort generally. Good levels of determination up to the hammer blow goal. And they have been very poor for a table-topping side. Someone earlier mentioned they'll be straight back down. No sign of them being even that good.
We are not going to be bettered in this game IMO. I have changed my mind and now go 1-1,
be positive. 'Cmon you Lions !

I was browsing the leading scorers tables in the Observer yesterday, and the words 'Aston Villa' appeared in my line of vision - 'must be Kodjia' I thought, but no, it was Hogan - 14 goals. Then he comes here and does nothing. Predictable I suppose

[darren woolley]

Thank god for beer

This.

[Rigadon]

Unless we come out fighting for every ball this next half I think I'll call this season over in terms of time and money investment..  I don't give s shit if we lose, I want to see some heart.  40 mins we're the better team.  Hogan, needs a goal too cause so far so unimpressed.  Houranhane, good 20 mins then a couple of shit corners, show us you're better than Westwood.  Lansbury, wind these fat twats up and get that cock shelve sent off.  Show some balls.

We're doing alright. Lansbury and Hourihane need to do more to get closer to Hogan and use the space he creates.

These have been shit. First fucking shot a goal. Useless defending for the corner.

We will.do them second half.

[Tony Erdington]

Hogan has been poor

why single him out from the other 21 ?

I don't recall the team creating many chances for him, do you?

We will lose by 2 + goals I'm afraid.

Well, that's confined us to a 4-0 defeat.  If you predicted tomorrow was going to be Tuesday I'd check the calendar!
