Aston Villa 1-2 Bournemouth Post Match Thread

[The Edge]

Just watched MOTD - Danny Murphy really hates us doesn't he.
Strange editing showed nothing of the yellow card and several potential second yellow

Yeah just watched it. The little twonk really does seem to have a dislike for us. Fuck knows why.

Based on yesterday I'd like Dean to try a 4 1 3 2 or 4 2 3 1 as I think the wingers are too wide at present and Houriihane needs to play as his set pieces are way better than anyone else's.

This would also get support closer to Wes.

However to be really effective the system needs better attacking full backs. Both were solid again yesterday but Taylor in particular adds nothing going forward and even had 2 half chances which were poor efforts.

How quiet were the away fans yesterday?

At one point they were singing "barmy army". Hadn't heard that in years.

I've always thought he comes across as a joyless dour arsehole who hates everything and everyone, probably life, and definitely himself.

Those early mistakes were sickening.

We're in desperate need of a striker, why not get one in without a club and take the chance? Wesley won't get many goals seems very stroppy too

OK enough about his qualities now how about his bad side?

That was one thing I noticed during the second half. Something didn't go his way and he flapped his arms around and then stood still. He then flapped again.

We haven't got time for that nonsense. Other than that, I thought he did pretty well. Just want him to crack some shots at goal now.

I fear you will be waiting a long time.

The crowd was 40996?  I expected way more.  Did there seem to be many empty seats or is it because Bormuff only have 12 fans?

[Flin5tone]

There was only about 200 empty seats in away end, good following for a club that size. Few empty seats dotted about in home areas also the block in lower north next to away end is now segregation

Away end didn't look capacity from the few youtube vids I've seen and I imagine a couple of season ticket holders are away on family hols and stuff.

It's alright. MOTD is on its last legs so we won't have to put up with shite like that much longer.

Ah that still unused then. Would guess at around 500 seats in that area.

Seems our capacity has gone down to about 41.8k now so lost a thousand seats from 5 years ago somewhere. Don't think we've had 42k attendance since maybe Man. United game in August 2015.

[Steve67]

Unused season tickets, with people away on holiday, are still counted on the attendance aren't they?
