This needs to improve. Typical Bruce. We will not get another goal now...we never score when it matters.

Seems like they're having a few shots on goal.

They've brought Villa fan Lloyd Dyer on for Bluenose Ben Turner.

Er, we are 3-0 up

This is what annoys me. We have a great chance of improving our GD. So on a night that we have played well take advantage and don't hold back. That's why we have a squad too. Go at them and bring in a different player or two for the next game.

Whilst we are waiting for another goal is Phil Mepham still our Head of Communications?

[jwarry]

So nice to have a decent keeper now

[Jimbo]

In accordance with Villa protocol, we look fucking desperate for them to score.

[Louzie0]

Ok, time for.....trademark
Not losing yet!

Come on SB.

I would hope we are now engaging in a spot of game management.

Hogan for Davis

Not a bad idea to introduce a bit of pace now we're 3 up. Also gives Hogan more playing time and means Davis shouldn't be injured.

[PaulWinch again]

Right energy in midfield now please.

Bit of pace? Hogan?

[Louzie0]

We want 4!

4-1 wasn't it? It was their 125th anniversary and our fans were singing "happy birthday to you". Younes Kaboul got the equaliser.

You're probably right. My memory isn't what it was!  Mind you, I can remember being 2-0 up at home to Spurs with 10 minutes to go, and we lost 3-2.
