I’ll bow to the greater wisdom here, but if that is the case then there’s little sense in turning up for the rest of the games isn’t there? The players who might come back have plenty of games too so they’ll be tired. Like I said, I’m sure it’s a factor, but it doesn’t excuse how bad we were tonight.
Actually it does.

Olympiacos were good, particularly Podence.
We had our moments, but looked tired.

Positives for sure where the 2 goals scored.
Watkins and Diaby finishing was superb!
Seemed a bit over run in midfield areas in transition however another day Villa score several more.
Prayers and thoughts to the supporter who was taken to hospital I hope that they will be ok.
Does anyone have any info or knowledge on this.
God bless them.
That's the most important thing tonight the welfare of supporter


Medical attention will almost certainly be more useful than prayers.
You're getting my dander up with comments like that !
I guess I'm of course upset about the game but I am asking about a health or situation here and you're choosing to make comments!
Not very supportive !
Of course medics are important.
I really not impressed with this comment!
It's actually pretty disgusting.
I have good intentions I'm not forcing you to pray but I will keep this person in my thoughts !
Stop picking on me!!!

Agreed, that was a pretty classless comment and not amusing. Par for the course I suppose.

So what’s your assessment of the season so far?

Well if you looked at the predictions he has made for the half season he has posted on, Villa were no doubt finishing in midtable with 4th being Spurs all along. So it is weird for someone to be so angry when Villa do have the poor results which have normally been predicted by the same person though.

Myself, I'm angry at specific parts of the performance, but I think the season has just been 5 games too much for us, which unfortunately means we have probably missed out on a trophy. Hopefully we build on this base for next season and if we don't and are pretty much in a similar situation next season, then I might be as angry as others are with the whole season.

Strange game. I didnt think we played that badly really and I think an early goal for us would have made it a different outcome. Their pen so soon after we got back into it killed us. Tbe place was rocking and I think they might have wobbled.

Disappointed but we're still in it

An interesting comment from the commentator, which every one except for me probably knew was that the Olympiacus owner is also the Forest owner.

I doubt he'll be complaining to the authorities about that refereeing performance.

Diasppointed too, but agree with this.

It was so shit from Lenglet in the context of the game, trying to see the ball out when he'd touched it last, dickhead.

Any update on the fan that required medical attention?

Yeah, I remember thinking before the corner that it's the sort of poor decision-making that comes back to bite you.

Me too. 4-2 to us would have been just as coherent a result.

Still reckon we'll go through.

Not sure it does, but if we continue to deteriorate then I guess you’re right.
