How about a tennis ball protest?

We missed Barry's set-pieces today our corners were absolutely dreadful.

Some dodgy maths in this thread we need more than 2 points to be guaranteed safety, or we wouldn't be 8-1 to be relegated.

Scary now :| All these people saying we're safe Wigan will never beat Arsenal QPR will never beat Spurs, Chelsea etc haven't got a clue. They all can get over 40 points potentially, that's the way you and we have to look at it.

Assist vs Liverpool, set-up Gabby on a plate vs Stoke. Fantastic corners. Given what we've got at the moment he is worth his place in the team. Links well with Ireland too. Yes he shouldn't be on the wing but I'd still rather we play him as at least he as an ounce of creativity about him unlike the rest of our players. Him, Ireland and N'zog in a front 3 behind Bent is our best formation imo.

Not out of it by any means. QPR will be up our arses in now time and Wigan I've got a feeling will get something vs Manure. A lot of people banking on 3 points vs Bolton I don't think that will happen. Their reserve team beat us earlier in the season.

well played bazzer

shit

Bannan is alright did you not see the pass to set up Gabby? Bannan haters need to watch the game imo.

Gabby is a shocking player , sorry.

One sexy goal. Is Dean Sturridge a Villa fan? He loved it

No idea what the line-up will be but I'm hoping Stoke will bend over here now their season is effectively over. If we play with the same intensity of the last two matches we should win with a little composure in the final third.

I think Randy will invest so long as the wage bill is kept in-line and sustainable. AFAIK when we pay say £10 million for a player that isn't paid straight away but over a number of years. So if our budget dictates it we can go out and get some players. The best thing to do is what we did with the Aussie lad from AZ, find decent players in other leagues on shit wages and offer them a Premier League wage. (£20-30k a week as opposed to £5-10k they are on at the moment).

Decent show all things considered but woefully lacking in composure when distributing. Hutton the chief hoofer. Can't blame Mcleish he was saying the same thing, it wasn't his fault we were getting boxed in. Collins MOTM. 11/16 academy players remember. Decent point and things look better in our relegation battle.

We need to stop with the Given goal kicks, completely futile as the ball just comes straight back. Been impressed with Bannan's coolness and composure, we need to get the ball down that side of the pitch more instead of lumping it to Heseky all the time. Still that aside it's been a decent performance and a lovely goal. They really are shit aren't they? They will score in the 2nd half though but there is a 2nd in this for us with their dodgy keeper and defence.
