Aston Villa vs QPR Post-Match Thread

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Has to be as bad a home performance as we've had since relegation. I don't see the point starting Jedi at home to QPR. I certainly don't see the point starting him for the second half when 2-0 down. Bruce dropped the ball there twice imo. We were just flat, looked like strangers and failed at so many basic passes, corners etc.

14 corners tonight. It's the story of our season, fucking clueless with the basics.

So bloody annoying, you finally start to believe and reality kicks you in the balls.

If we can beat Bolton, and hope Derby beat Cardiff then it's back to 4 points - then the big one against them in April. It's not over yet!

This has cheered me up. Let’s go for it

That’s the spirit!

QPR deserved their win and it could have been more. They were dominant going forward and it could have been more than 2 at HT
 
First half crosses from Elmo were good but no numbers going forward to make it count.  Albert couldn’t  beat the first man with his crosses

Should have changed it at half time rather than wait. Great Grealish chance missed before HT which could have turned the game.

Second half we just seemed to pass and pass without progressing. If you bring on Davis you have to mix it up and get some early crosses in. We didn’t.

Finally, the service at HT in the Holte for a beer was a shocker. Please sort it out.  Some organisation would be nice

I have been expecting Cardiff to have a poor run since September but apart from a blip over xmas they have just carried on winning so with 9 games to go expecting them to just fall apart seems a little unlikely .Warnock is a decent manager at this level and knows how to get promoted .

I agreed with everything Bruce said in his post match interview, we looked lead footed and short of energy and spark. The Villa fans I spoke to beforehand all had an ‘after the Lord Mayors show’ fatalism about this game it proved well founded. I fancied 2-2 at th start and still did at half time.

I think he should have made changes earlier but lets hope this a blip, very few players will feel they did themselves justice.

All to play for and a lot to prove in the next games.

Well 4 days is a long time in football. We have moved from aiming for top spot to at best a play-off team. Sad state of affairs but too many indifferent performances over the season are taking their toll.

Unfortunately I agree completely.

Yes but a few too many if's in there. It's over and just accept it.

 Bolton are going to get a serious mauling.

Bolton are going to get a serious mauling. 

Yep, i'd expect Wolves to stick at least 5 past them next month.

[ChicagoLion]

Bolton are going to get a serious mauling.

And so were QPR apparently.

Just in case we don’t do auto promotion (I think we will because the others have to have a 4/5 bad game run ) what date is the Wembley play off final?

Quote from Blackadder sums it up really.
Captain Darling:  I put a note in my diary today. Simply says, " Bugger."

This season or next?
