Bruce being interviewed has just popped up on my Twitter feed. I found myself hitting the pause button while uttering "fuck off."

Poor defending for the goal.

Played all the football there was on a snow-pitch against a team of hoofers.

Had enough chances to win the game but then Bruce brings on Davis (did he touch the ball?) and empties out the midfield.

Mindless!

Pretty much.

On a positive note I'm nearly home. Fuckety fuck fuck fuck.

It's not going to get any easier. Going to Hull, Ipswich, Norwich, Millwall are all tough. Home to Derby and kicker Cardiff also tough. We need to guarantee a play off spot.  I have so little faith in Bruce, just as we seem to be doing well, we think we've cracked it and fall apart.
all of a sudden a guaranteed play off spot doesn't looked nailed on does it ? - whilst Wolves was commendable let's reflect on the performances against Fulham,Preston QPR and Bolton - doesn't inspire confidence does it ?

It’s all a bit MON March, we looked fucked again, the decision to just chuck on forwards without any idea of how to get the ball to them is just nuts.
I think we will make play offs, no idea in what position.
Is March our cruelest month?  Seem to remember some notables. 

Anybody done the stats?

If we don't make the play offs then I'm going to feel worse than I did last season

For once the international break has probably come at the right time. Get injured players fit and regroup. Kodjia could still play a part this season. A disaster if we blow the play-offs...

We where pretty poor against Wednesday as well but Snodgrass practically dragged us through that by himself .Wolves is the only game we have played well in recently

I'm not sure how accurate this is but it feels as if we go into the International breaks quite regularly on the back of a shite run or a shite result and then have two weeks to dwell on it.

I am usually one of the most pessimistic of Villa fans, but come on, can you really see us dropping out of the play off spots? Tonight was shit, bit there was no lack of effort. We'll bounce back.

Three wins should do it I think.

Has he really just said we needed to get our wide players in and we couldn’t?  Well not if they’re not on the pitch.

Not long home. So disappointing. Was it really only a week ago that we were talking about going up as Champions?

LDWWWLL is our last seven games. Not the form of a play off winner. The break might help I guess. Who knows with Villa?
