Aston Villa v Newcastle Match Thread

[Ian.]

Barnes always seems to have a blinder against us. Hope Cash is on his game today.

Citeh winning further emphasises this as a must win. We owe them and we need this.

and they was so lucky .  Everton should have won that .

The harder Pep spits, the luckier they get.

[PaulWinch again]

And he’s in ridiculous form.

Instead of trying to stop Barnes by what I suspect Unai's plan is (Cash and McGinn's tenacity denying him space) I'd have simply broken his knees with cricket bat. Game's gone.

What’s Cash like with a bat?

[Villa Lew]

Would have liked to see Rashford start, but happy with the line up. This could be one of our toughest games of the season, they're the form team in the league, have one of the best strikers in the league, if not the best and have goals from throughout the team. What is in our favour is our magnificent home form, our bench and super SJM has now discovered, where the net is.

Watching Sky Sports. Who are Newcastle playing again, sorry?...

Well he's Polish, so I doubt he knows how to use it in a sporting sense. Might hold it the wrong way round, which would serve our purposes here tbf.

Newcastle love in on Sky

He's no Jimmy Cumbes (one for the kids there)

Yep.

Yep.

It's beyond parody.

What’s Cash like with a bat? He is very good with a golf club. Apparently.

Lovable plucky underdog propaganda vehicle. Remember Peter Beheadings? Beardsley! B E A R D S L E Y. Sorry. Peter Beardsley. And Kevin Keegan, Philippe Albert's chip, wor Robby Bobson, everyone's second team...just lashings of fun. I mean, lots of fun. Loads. Please don't think about theocracy! Just the great form they're in, they've been carving up their opponents and throwing them out with the garbage winning, winning a few football games. Luv it.
