We’re circling the pan like the massive stinking turd we are. Rotten top to bottom, nobody should escape criticism for this entire 12 months of shambles, owners, directors, coaches and players.

1 for Smith ?

First 25 mins were pretty much bang on, after that he may as well have been sat next to me at home for all the effect he had on the game.

We've seen some dismal performances this season but that was perhaps the worst.  It wasn't the score, it was the way they crumbled when something went against them.  They never raised themselves at all after that and Dean contributed jack shit.  The sheer lack of determination, will to fight to the end, skill, passion, was totally unprofessional.  Most of them were phoning it in.  I think they've completely lost faith in Dean (and probably did so a long time a go) and are just going through the motions.  He's not inspiring them (or us) at all.  We're certainly not going down all guns blazing.

Absolute rubbish.

But we can look forward to tweets before Sunday game from players saying such shit as ”Work and faith. Everything comes”

Yeah relegation you useless twats.

I really dislike the team and management.

One exception. Purslow and everybody below him OUT!

And so another 90 minutes of ineptitude and   lack of passion is over.

Going down without a fight, which is the worst crime of all imo.

I'll caveat my comments with an apology for repeating myself.

I thought we'd lose, but I expected a defeat like Sunday. Competitive.

I felt we got a performance at the start. Energy, pressing, having a go, creating openings, putting good balls in.

Then we're cheated. No ifs or buts. Cheated by a fat c*** like Moss. And I went fucking spare. Absolutely mental. My wife gave up telling me to stop swearing, I called my old man up and went fucking barmy down the phone. Livid does not cut it.

But we weren't. We weren't angry, we were meek. Soft. Accepting our fate. And that is inexcusable and unforgivable. If that shirt means anything or your professional pride counts for a jot, you do not fucking react like we did.

Mings- the defending was appalling. Grealish, the samecriminal schoolboy cowardice. Do not turn your back you twat, you get fucking hit. But you don't. You bottle it and let that odious wanker Pogba pick his spot.

I am infuriated with how passive we were, how stand offish how utterly fucking craven we were.

What happens on Sunday if it doesn't go our way? Fucking hell Villa.

Weak and I cannot abide that. I'll accept not being good enough (to a point), but I cannot accept surrendering. Ever.

Yet as sure as night follows day there will be those wanting Smith to stay to get us back up again.

We were in it before the pen. A scandalous one. That should prompt a response from us. An angry battling guns blazing response. But not this Villa team. Their response was to fight the injustice like Julian Clary in a bar room brawl. I'm fucking fuuuuming with em Tone.

35 points was enough to stay up last season and it will be enough to stay up this season. Unfortunately we won't get 35 points. If you aren't good enough to finish 17th in a relatively mediocre twenty team league you deserve to go down. Why should have changed manager around the turn of the year. We have sleepwalked to relegation. The new owners, Purslow, Suso, money spent in the transfer market. It had me feeling optimistic but it hasn't worked and the best we can hope for next season is six points off the noses.

Up until the pen, we were ok then what confidence and game plan we had, went. That said, I think they may have beat us anyway.
