Aston Villa v Manchester United Post Match Thread

[ktvillan]

Trezeguet - our first neither footed player since Stuart Downing, with the vision of Stevie Wonder, the presence of Ashley Westwood, the finishing of Tonev and  and the composure of a cat with a banger tied to it's arse.  But at it least it raises our profile in Egypt.

How is it that they take half a fucking hour on some decisions, but on the clearest non penalty I've ever seen, they confirm the ref's decision in 10 seconds?  My Man U supporting mate who I was watching the game with, was worried the Man U player was going to get sent off for raking his foot down our player's ankle.  He burst out laughing when the penalty was given.

I wish it didn't still piss me off so much.

In other footie news Zombie FC are coming to Brum in a couple of weeks to play Coventry. That should cheer you up.

How long before the original Trezeguet gets in touch and demands that this one changes his name to something that won’t tarnish his legacy? This one isn’t fit for purpose. In fact, I wish we’d signed the French one instead.

Well the penalty was right up there in the shit-refereeing-in-Villa-ManU-matches with Vidic not being sent off. But the result was completely unsurprising. I’m now more worried about Norwich overhauling us.

We really don’t deserve Douglas Luiz.

Seriously, are Davis and Samatta the best two fit strikers we have at the club? They are an absolute horror show week in, week out. Watching them is like a magnet to a battery on my very soul.

Samatta is dreadful. All those fans back in Tanzania going mad about him. I'm very curious what they all see. Shockingly bad.

Thought he looked useful before the break, but has been getting progressively worse by the game after the resumption.  Being so isolated doesn't help I suppose.

We really don’t deserve Douglas Luiz.

He looked absolutely disgusted with the lack of quality around him tonight.

Confirmed that the penalty was the wrong decision

Already knew all that, but am comforted to know that an organization with no interest in getting things right can see what every viewer with a pair of eyes (apart from their appointed officials) can. Fuckwits.

[Risso]

That admission just makes it worse.  There was no way on earth anybody giving that even a cursory glance can have concluded that was a penalty.  It's just pure cheating.

I would have preferred if a Villa player had got himself sent off telling Moss to stick his whistle up his arse. Disappointing thing was lack of reaction specially from out skipper.

I've only seen 2 people think it was a penalty, and it was the 2 ****** that gave it. I haven't even seen a sha or manure fan reckon it was a penalty.

Yes but he contributed nothing prior to restart so let’s not revise history.

I've only seen 2 people think it was a penalty, and it was the 2 c***s that gave it. I haven't even seen a sha or manure fan reckon it was a penalty.

Same. I watched the game with an Arsenal and a Yanited fan. Nobody in the room thought it was a pen.

[Risso]

The pub was full of Manchester United fans, and none of them thought it was a penalty. Absolutely disgraceful decision.
