Newcastle United vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

It’s one game. An absolutely shit game and utterly shit 3 days. But it’s one game. And we will be better. Much better. Newcastle is arguably the hardest place to go and we were completely trounced. So sugar coating it. But it’s one game. Let’s keep perspective.

[Tony Daleys Shorts]

We’ll improve from here no doubt, how could we get any worse?!

Big love to Tyrone looked bloody awful.

The rest of you, get a fucking grip and put it right against Everton.

[Nev]

No need for panic, unless you feel like it. 2 offside goals not really checked but they were better than us. Konsa's mistake was crucial and so was Mings injury, Teilemens was awful and no better than Bailey, but to throw the shit around now is a huge overreaction and this result will not be indicative of the seaaon

[Chris_Jephcott]

With Buendia and Mings, that game is a draw.

We lose those 2 in 3 days and it’s mid-table unless we buy replacements.

Mings isn’t just a player - he’s a leader, a colossus and our strongest player mentally.

Jesus fucking Christ. Every time we threaten to kick on, fate pulls a fast one on us and we end up back at square one. Terrible terrible luck

Well, that was sobering!  Too many players below par to mention, as a whole, defensively, we were a car crash. That was horrible to watch.  Newcastle were sharper, first to the ball.  I have a real issue with the VAR decision for their second and I think the Tyrone injury may have knocked the stuffing out of us, not surprisingly.  Diaby is a breath of fresh air but the rest of them, I honestly can't think of another acceptable performance, other than Martinez.

We need a couple more leaders on the pitch, one being a centre back.  Unusually bad from Kamara, Cash and Konsa.  I am looking forward to Moreno and Ramsey getting fit as they offer us pace and energy, which was lacking today.  This high line crap worries me.

Let's not panic though eh?  One game down 37 to go!

[Goldie.7]

Window still open is the only positive.

[Villan82]

I am shell shocked about Buendia and Mings. I think half the team were and all

[Lastfootstamper]

Can't take any more Sky, so after thinking I've not watched anything on Pluto TV in a while I've flicked over. They're only showing the bloody highlights!





Oh, hang on, my mistake, it's Laurel and Hardy.

[Malandro]

Another performance like that and I’m going to rip up my season ticket waiting number.

[Axl Rose]

No leadership on the pitch. I expect more from our captain in such games. Atrocious today.

Fuck it, it's almost 4am and I'm too irritated to sleep.

[itmustbe_it is!]

Keep the faith.

That's all.

[Clark W Griswold]

Well, I enjoyed my Saturday tea time Lasagne and glass of red. Shame the football was fucking wank.

[VillaBoy_23]

Losing is one thing, but it’s the way we appeared to give up in the second half that’s the most worrying thing. Very moody away end too this afternoon. People stumbling around paralytic drunk and Villa fans arguing with each other all second half.

[PeterWithesShin]

I may give MOTD a miss later.

[Legion]

That was a bit shit.
