Newcastle vs Aston Villa Match Thread

[SoccerHQ]

Below Man. City on GD as it stands. This is where our leaky defence is costing us a bit.

[Deano's Mullet]

That was torturous. Anthony Taylor laughing with Claire Balding as they walk off.

[itmustbe_it is!]

I never understand why we fall over ourselves on here to be reasonable. The first one was never a red, the second wasn't either but judged by the same criteria as the Duran incident it was definitely worth red.

We're getting stitched up , as per usual.

[pelty]

The call is a tough one, but there is no denying that Anthony Taylor is a twat and an absolutely horrible referee.

Oh, and Cash’s defending on the goal was disgraceful.

[Hampshire Villa]

This commentator is really dreadful. We have no chance with this ref. 

[Demitri_C]

You just know at sty james any 50/50decision is going against you. Thats why you need to keep your head as the ref is going to side with them.

Durans immaturity showed there. Im pretty sure emery is going to tear him apart at HT as this is going to be almost impossible to win with 10 men.

[villa for life]

Taking off my villa glasses, I think the ref has got everything right so far..

Duran stupid

[paul_e]

In principle I like that Emery very rarely complains about refs but in practice it means that c**ts like this and the twat at Forest can get away with being fucking awful against us.

[Rigadon]

Honestly, they are the fucking dirtiest team in this division by a mile.  But always, always get away with it. 

[LeeB]

Taylor is fucking bent, starting by trying to claim to be an Altrincham fan when he's from Wythenshawe.

[Garyth]

We're likely gonna lose this game 0-3, and it won't be due to tactics or not trying... it'll be a stupid free kick on the edge of the box or a missed tackle on 85 min due to tiredness.

And 'everyone' will say that Newcastle deserve it. 🤢

They have the benefit of the crowd that massively influenced that decision

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

well we got to half time at 0-1 so still in it. The question is how to shoehorn Watkins in?
I'm not sure what id do hook cash and reshape, or either tiely, mcginn onana. Rogers is having a shit game but I'd keep him on for now

I think Unai will be doing no such thing

[Mellin]

I desperately want us to find a way against these fuckers second half. Pace is your only real chance with 10 men. I'd go Bailey for McGinn and Watkins for Tielemans. Give up the middle of the park a little and hit the three quick lads early.
