Is it just me who thinks Lee Hendrie looks a bit like Norman Wisdom in that suit?

put 3 or 4 forward passses together and you create chances against most teams in this league.
So why the fuck do we play hoofball?

Because Steve Bruce looks like a horse.

Key is to get Jack on the ball. Need more mobility centrally to step up.

Still least we got to surge at the home of mighty Brentford down the terraces.

Agreed. 1 good move and we scored. The rest of the half has been dire. Hogan has had not a lot to work with.

Hogan showed with that offside finish what he can do, get some fucking through balls for him.

Whelan or Jedi off for Hourihane please.

He’s had next to nothing to work with since arriving at the club

There's more than a decent team out there, problem is they've been held back for so long they're still struggling with the basics. The goal showed what we can do, the hoofing it up to Hogan shows you who's held us back these last 13 months. Hopefully Agnew can put an end to the dross. He certainly seemed like he had a lot to say to Bruce as they walked off at half time.*

Hogan is putting a shift in. Play in balls off the shoulder of the last man.

Here we come. Come on you Villa boys!!

For the first time for what seems like years, we scored from a cross!. Scott to get the winner.

Sad, but it looks to me that he's still on the sauce.
