Newcastle v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Rory]

How many of these kind of games have there been this season? For want of an experienced defender and a reliable attacker. It would be disappointing if nobody had raised this both in August and January. As it is, it's just annoying.

Luiz and McGinn blowing out of their arses.
Need Hourihane to actually show

Dean Smith can't beat Steve Bruce when it really really matters it seems.

Typical.

Still at least we're playing two upfront and Jack in number 10 role for last twenty minutes.

[wince]

I meant AEG and Trez!

All fart and no shit the pair of them

Looks like they followed through then...

Skid marks then? We are stinking the league out again. We ain’t going to get the points from the last games playing like this. Sunk against the man we binned last year.

It's hard to see a win coming from anywhere really. That might be that.

[Goldie.7]

Dean Smith only makes subs when we're losing. How many of us were calling for changes at 0-0?

[Legion]

A scorchio or two would be nice.

Yet more evidence (its like a fucking public library at this point) that Dean is WAY WAY out of his depth at this level - the fact Bruce of all people, has outwitted him is shocking in the extreme given has talentless he is.

It says it all that in the last 7 games, we have looked no better than the shit fest under Lambert. We are an embarrassment in this league.

SJM and Konsa off, Marv and Elmo on

He called for the subs at 0-0.

He can't beat ANYONE. We were promised front-foot football and this dumb 4-3-3 pins us back into a 6-3-1 EVERY MATCH.

We can barely score a goal, let alone two. Have we hit 3 in the league once this season?

We have the worst defense in the league and we PAID for every one of them. 

[Nii Lamptey]

McGinn off 76mins too late

[Toronto Villa]

Like last time, the PL won't miss us when we when we go down. We are fucking pitiful.

[mr-villa]

Well very much looking like 2 from Us Bournemouth West Ham and Watford to join Norwich.  All losing tonight so if Watford take anything away from Burnley tomorrow they're in the box seat.

Another game when we could play all night and not score.
