  1. Bent was waiting for support, but the only other player in shot was Agbonlahor who wasn't coming inside.
  2. That's more to do with the quality of their finishing than our play, they've all of the possession, our players are better than these tactics.
  3. awful corner really. Assuming that wasn't the idea.
  4. Heskey didn't even attempt to make contact with the ball then, shurked it.... This is awful, no possession.
  5. Hutton dives in like a bloody idiot again, yellow.
  6. Tapping it around the box with ease, I think McCleish was signalling to hoof the ball out then... Joy.
  7. You can't do much if you don't have the ball! Keep the ball nullify opportunity for other team... McC isn't interested in that though!
  8. Been in the background on the Daily Politics (chatting to someone about how much of a prat Andrew Neill is) on the BBC at conference... Been interviewed, I've no idea if it was shown. Was on telly walking down the side of the pitch at the West Ham game last season as we scored. Also a few school things I've been involved in have made the television. Never really intentional.
  9. Paddy was one of the mainstays of the forum I joined, I remember how shocked I was when he posted that he had a brain tumour, and how cheered I was when I heard that it was in remission. Hoping that there is somewhere up there for him. Thoughts are with all his family and close friends.
  10. The one without a cup had a team full of championship players, the one with a cup was able to sign some players for and on a fair bit of money. The one without a cup kept a dream alive till the last day of the season, the one with a cup did something that only Villa fans dreamt about. Expectations were different. One exceeded in being able to stay up till last day of season. One fell well short.
  11. The lack of forward movement chance creation is pretty much as important, its that I think that McCleish is oblivious to.
  12. Still have a 3GS as I decided I wanted to cut back on phone costs, so now do £10 a month (25 mins, unlimited texts unlimited date) Giff Gaff... Its much better value than previous o2 deal.

    RIP Steve Jobs

    Have to say that OS on my macbook runs far quicker than Windows does on my old laptop which had better technical specifications - its easy to use, things tend to update more simply, it doesn't just restart itself to update whilst you're using the computer. Its fantastic.
  14. I agree Bannan shouldnt be dropped but With Heskey: 1 goal conceded Without Heskey: 6 goals conceded (if you count CC) No too ways about it - Emile Heskey is a very important player for us That is worrying though, we shouldn't be relying on a striker to balance up the goals against column. I think perhaps the thing with Heskey is that because we're playing so deep he's the only person really capable of holding people off until A N Other of our players catches up with play, that said if we weren't smashing it up field it wouldn't be a problem.
  15. Shame that he'll be dropped for Heskey this weekend. Shown that he is an outstanding player on the ball... Its just getting it to him when not too crowded that is the challenge.
  16. I absolutely agree with you, here's to hoping that the manager does as well, I'm hoping our play is indicative of sorting out the defence before playing a more expansive game. *crosses fingers*

    Alan Hutton

    I was actually told that he had interesting habits whilst on loan at Sunderland, I'm pretty sure its endemic in Premiership football tbh.
  18. Anyone that has read Roy Keane's biography will know the trouble he had in finding an English club willing to take him on, he wrote to about 30 of them and only Forest would give him a trial, a punt can be worthwhile!
