Aston Villa v Newcastle Utd Match Thread

[taylorsworkrate]

Can someone tell me why they flagged on that move that didnt even look offside??

Surely you let the move play out and then see if ut was off like every single fucking time that's happened against us all season ?

It was offside.

Diaby is an utter waste of time and money. Useless.

yep

Rule change.  For this evening only.

Okay Unai, this is where you get to live up to your current reputation.  0-2 might be too much of a mountain to climb, but you've seen how bad we've been, you need to change it and show us a second half where the players at least LOOK like a top four outfit.

[Axl Rose]

Back to bed I think.

We aren't very interesting to watch at present.

[Brazilian Villain]

Diaby and Tielemans off for Jacob and Bailey please. Both been invisible first half.

Keep the faith. The Geordies ain’t all that.

That's the spirit! Sometimes I wonder how Britain won two World Wars.

All our games are starting to look the same now.

[PaulWinch again]

The whole team is miles off it. Newcastle just have much more intensity and look like a team, we’re a rabble.

[TonyD]

We need someone to compete with Ollie. His contribution has been horrible for weeks.

He’s had zero service.
The service breaks down at Diaby. 

[Mister E]

... after half a season of being a good team, we realised who were and have turned back into Typical Villa.
But the energy levels are not there, and the movement up front is back to Gerrard levels for some reason.

Well, it's been 12 months that we've played well, but - I agree - we've clearly been sussed. Energy levels seem low and we miss key players.
Big second half coming up.

100%. Offside trap isn’t working at all now. Going forwards were ponderous and predictable.

[Beard82]

More fucking cheating, putting the flag up straight away. ******.

Yeah, what the fuck was that about? It wasn't a clear offside. Have they changed the rules just for us?

That boiled my piss - complete error by the linesman

His mistake is the front 2 , you can not get away with one player occupying the defence and the other completely ineffective

Looks like the media were right to not take us seriously.

[ROBBO]

No real striking power, injuries have bought us undone but the lack of a midfield is really hurting us. Torres is a huge miss but apart from McGinn the rest look very ordinary.
