Dirty northern ******. Stick on handball too.

Bring Hogan on for Hourihane.

These are proper shite we've got to win this.....

isn't that what people were saying about QPR on Tuesday night ? You've gotta fight for every point in this league especially when most of the teams consider the Villa a huge scalp
I don't think we have enough in us to get automatic promotion now and I worry about our confidence if we lose again today - some fans need a reality check as we aren't as good as we think we are and although the standard of refereeing is poor you just have to get on with things - I think we need to be looking at  strategy for the play offs right now

This is the sort of scenario where promoted teams get promoted - grinding something out of a horrible situation like this.

Yep: and surprise, surprise - our mob look like choking. A big second half is the way the top sides would deal with this situation, so we can but live in hope.

Referee is shocking, Bolton are thugs and their goal was just shocking. Ill be more annoyed if we lose this than i was on Tuesday night.

Grabban needs support. One up top is not working.

I think the solution is to get the attacking midfielders closer to him rather than changing shape.

Last week seems like a lifetime ago

[AsTallAsLions]

Can’t see us going up we just ain’t good enough

Oh shut up, just support your bloody team!

I do support them mate and I will next season when we’re in the same league but when you can’t beat qpr at home and are losing to a team in the bottom 6 when the pressures on we don’t deserve to go up whether you like it or not.

Entirely fair.

Long way to go yet 1.3. 
We miss Alan.

A huge, huge 45 minutes coming up.
Shit or bust.

Hourihane doing nothing again.

Dirty northern c***s. Stick on handball too.

Bring Hogan on for Hourihane.

It was a handball but wasn't a pen imo.

[Zouch Villa]

Just bloody well win this Villa.  Bolton are a typical anti-football team, that will bully us out of the game if we let them. Use our pace and passing, and we can stuff them in the second half.

I would’ve started Lansbury ahead of Hourihane.

[dicedlam]

I can't remember the commentator mentioning Hourihane once in that first half.

Bring Hogan on. 

[Goldie.7]

Get Davis and Lansbury on, I'm really bored of Hourihane offer nothing. Maybe even RHM as well, fuck it!
