Aston Villa 1-0 Cardiff City Post Match Thread

[PeterWithe]

i,ve been reading this all year about warnock from all different fans so what you say is about the norm so here's my pennys worth . When he took over we were on a massive slide and looked like we were heading for the dungeon leagues again and believe me watching league 1/2 football is the last thing i want to watch . spent most of my life down in the dungeon leagues or division 2/3 to us older heads . we ain't got the kinda dosh that you have spent over the years and wolves have spent alot this year too , even derby too the list is endless . so to us challenging to get into the prem league is nothing short of a miracle . I take your point regarding the style of play but we ain't got the players to play silky football .Would love us to play like wolves or fulham who pass the ball well from back to front . warnock isn't everyones cup of tea i know but he has saved our club from being a club like pompey or wigan that's for sure . by the way when wolves fans complained about our tactics the other week again and we are above them in the fair play league . work that one out ( not sure where villa are mind)

Fair enough.

You lot are very good at what you do. Alehouse football. Sunday league on steroids.

A dupe who watched last night's game as an introduction to the Championship could reasonably conclude if that was the third and fourth best team on display, 5th and below must be the Dog and Duck or Boldmere St Michaels standard.

[Tuscans]

wow - looks like your all happy again . told you to expect route 1 with the ball being launched like an exocet missile so nothing new there then from us . thought you were the better side on the night which I expected but thought we'd deserved a draw simply by the amount of chances we created . mathematically our mission is accomplished we are at least cemented in the play offs but maybe warnock can weave his magic and nick us over the line into second spot . he's hopeing

I genuinely don't know how you can watch that horseshit every week. You are a low rent Stoke. Plenty of Cardiff fans are whining about Grealish diving and moaning to the ref on your forum but I am surprised the police haven't been called in with a view to an assault charge with the way your players take it in turns to hack the opposition. And it is a little rich to complain of gamesmanship or cheating by the opponents given how you "play" the game. And that is before we get to the hypocritical c*** you have as a manager, who bemoans the Wolves boss for a lack of class whilst telling him to fuck off, who attempted to assault a kid in the tunnel last year for having the temerity to be pissed off at being kicked from pillar to post, who should be facing some serious FA charges for his scandalous comments about Derby deliberately getting a game called off because they had a few injuries and all of that from a bloke who should have been banned from the game for a long period of time for deliberately getting a match abandoned to include some tackles for red cards that would see you banged up if you did it in a pub on a Saturday night. You have been respectful since you have been here so the dig isn't aimed at you personally but I detest your 1970's anti football and the Grade A bellend you have for a manager.

Some here would say you just described Villa over the past few years.

Wolves are an irritation. Like getting bitten by a mosquito whilst you do a couple of weeks in Greece. Colin has a way to drag smallish clubs into results. Without wanting to sound too arrogant, it wouldn't wash here for five minutes.

There were some on here a while back comparing Warnock favourably over Bruce simply due to the turnaround he achieved. No doubt about that. Most of us would have taken Cardiff's results this year but in the end, I think both club's fans are not convinced by either manager for the long term. I don't know what it takes to make me happy as a life-long fan but it is in short supply throughout football everywhere.

i like those words peterwithe .tickled me -haha

just a heads up about james chester from a welsh point of view on our local news tonight . he will be missing our friendly game with mexico at the end of May as it ties in with his wedding  . not sure if that will affect his plans if AV get to the play off final . that's usually the last week of May too

[PeterWithe]

The final is 26 May.

We won a another fairly important game on that date I think.

Yeah the friendly is in the States but it's a pointless one like the one in China was. The play off final is on the 26th....if we get there.

[LeeB]

Still very much an outside chance
 for making it obviously, but that was about pride as well as showing we'd be a threat in the play-offs. Of course it was pretty hard work, but we have a guy with something that almost no-one else in the division has.

I think we have two with Kodjia.

You read my mind. We are hardly a template for football purity and as for our managers , well where do you begin.

[dave.woodhall]

Our managers might have been bad, but none of them were as immoral as Colin.

[KevinGage]

I genuinely thought I had stepped into a parallel universe (for a bit) when I heard Wanker berating the Wolves lad for a lack of manners and a bit of class.

Wankers in glass houses shouldn't send shitebags out to kick people off the park, or try to get games abandoned through murderball.

[somec]

I have just bought TWO Villa mugs to celebrate that strike.

Gabby & Micah?!

[Hookeysmith]

Mr Cardiff fan   you come across as a genuine guy and have been honest in your posts. I spent new year eve in Cardiff and had a great time.

But

The only positive for your team getting promoted would be to see Warnock made to look even more of a dinosaur than he already is.
As someone said previously    a poor man's stoke under Pulis and that is as bad as it gets

But more than that he comes over as almost likeable on the radio etc but in real life a vile piece of shit that relies on his panto alter ego and general cuntiness to make up for his football failings.

[oldhill_avfc]

@ Dinas

I totally understand where you're coming from, re. Cardiff competing for promotion.   As for the direct football - I understand that too and can see your players play to their strengths and who could argue with that? 

We had a manager a few years ago who we revere who played this way and if were still around he and his football would be welcomed back with open arms.

The difference is he had integrity and style and loved football.

You have Colin.  A malevolent and twisted wanker.   You, your club and players deserve much better.
