Aston Villa v Brentford Post-Match Thread

[Malandro]

Well done to everybody who booed the team off at half time.....it helped enormously. I know we were crap, but booing at half time? From the same lot who sing shit support to the brentford fans.

People are paying for entertainment. They have every right to boo.

I'm so pissed off Im going shopping.

Buying bog rolls and washing powder is more fun than watching that bucket of donkey spunk. Thanks for that one Jimbo, it cheered up a very dismal afternoon.

[London Villan]

Didn't boo, but understand why. Especially after bruces reaction to the criticism.

The clock is ticking...we had 6 points from 6 games last season. It is nowhere near enough to be in contention for top 6.

Bruce please feck off now

Gabby is still playing for us !!!!!

you play a makeshift Brentford team at home and have 1 shot on target the whole game

Elmo makes Kachoul look like David Silva

Johnstone was easily the man of the match and Brentford could have had 5

Snodgrass looked ok but will turn into Holman while Bruce is at the club.

He needs Kodja to save his managerial life , because he has not got a clue still with all the money he has spent.

He played with one striker. At home. To Brentford. Why Hogan and Snograss didn't start ahead of 2 from Green, Onomah and Elmo is anyone's guess.

What can people realistically do? People been patient for years now and yet it never gets any better.

Even when there's little dissent from the crowd the team simply refuses to win games.

People can see the season is already drifting despite all the usual summer hype so no surprise people are unhappy.

Snodgrass hasn't played a game this season or trained with the squad before yesterday - that's why I guess

[Karlos96]

Outplayed by Brentford at home if hadn't been for Johnstone they'd have won comfortably, just sack that moron now I'm sick to death of watching this drivel.

[mr underhill]

We need to beat ?Boro on Tuesday. If we don't Bruce has to go before we are potentially 13 points off the top. Today was abject.

[Marton]

So we got a team filled of overpaid old "hasbeens" that just signed because old loyalties to Bruce and his promises to make them starters,
Said Bruce then makes good on his word and start Whealan, Terry, Elmo, Taylor (and Gabby whenever he gets a chance) and have them perform some embarrassingly gameplan that leaves us outplayed by giants like Brentford at Home!

As much as I would like to get rid of Bruce it would put Villa in a very bad spot with all these old players (who in their own minds are still in their prime and promised to be paramount in Villa plans by Bruce) sowing dissent and undercutting any new manager daring to change the pecking order.

Pile on the time until January window and restrictions on transfers... this we are stuck between a Rock and a Hard Face

Nice reading off the script Kippax provided.

Not only is the result bad but more importantly the performance is truly shocking at home to the Bees. Can't see an improvement any time soon.

[aev]

We've played Brentford 3 time's in 12 months and failed to beat them?  This club is an embarassment

Some people just do nothing.

[ciggiesnbeer]

Just woke up so I havent seen the game. When I saw 0-0 I assumed we had battered them and they had somehow managed to hold on. In the words of MON "I now realise that was naive of me."

An African reverser of that? Bloody hell. Thats not good.
