Side note - I’ve never seen so much litter on a pitch. What a dump.
-
Just look at the crowd reaction after the attack though. They’re not ashamed, shocked or disgusted. Bouncing up and down, cheering and clapping. Points deduction is the only punishment.
-
Which is good news. Hopefully they back better decisions.
-
Best goalie we’ve ever had I reckon.
-
And breath.

In truth, I’ve never really cared about Blues either. They’re obsessed with us, you’re right. Loser mentality.
-
Other teams now know what’s coming when The Villa Show rolls into town. I don’t care if Baggies are winning, their focus in training from tomorrow will be stopping us.

Ratings & Reactions: Middlesbrough v Villa
GrassyNoel replied to limpid's topic in C: Middlesbrough a
I’m still buzzing. As has been mentioned, we’re far from the finished article and that’s precisely why it’s so damn exciting! Smith has us playing like we are with personnel he’s inherited. As he starts to strengthen and shape us further with his own additions - mouth watering! I’m also delighted when I know he has several days to coach us, like between now and Friday. I’m confident they’re working hard, honing their skills and technique. I never had that feeling with Bruce. I’m usually impatient for games, but more than happy now to let the prep work its magic. Brilliant stuff. -

Ratings & Reactions: Middlesbrough v Villa

Remember how Villa used to be mocked with “Month of the Goal” competition jibes - didn’t we have to cancel it one month because we hadn’t scored?! 17 in 5. 17!! Absolute different class today. We’re going up under Dean. It is happening. -
I’m getting this tattooed on my face.

Every club does. Nothing unique about Villa there. But our expectations are high, granted. He could be Mike Walker, or he could be Alex Ferguson. Time will tell and I suspect there is a great appetite to give Smith time than there ever was for Bruce. I can only speak for myself but having not even wanted Bruce in the first place, I was prepared to give him time all the same and only really felt he should have been removed after the playoff defeat. It got crazy toward the end because he was rapidly undoing any benefit he’d achieved.

That was a real life game of Kick Off 2

Bruce is a chancer. Gets found out for the same faults every time. Whatever the severance for him and his staff, it’ll be the best money we spend this season. We’re not guaranteed to get it right with the next appointment, but we are guaranteed to get it wrong if we stay with this one. Elmo, Conor, Tammy - all looked exasperated at times today. No way these players are happy. No way.

Cross that bridge when (if) we come to it.
-
Looking forward to the DVD.
-
Commentators for Rotherham are practically mocking us (gently) for being able to bring the likes of Bolasie on - in as much as why haven’t we done so already and why are we so dull. Sorry for the hysteria.
-
Finally.
-
Maybe make a change Steve?...

Amazing. I was watching on tv with my brother in law who, a year to the day, suffered a major heart attack. There was a close up of Bruce at one point. He just look at me and winced. Say no more. We need a character who can absorb and digest our club, not choke on it whilst clinging on for dear life.
-
I paid a tenner to watch this on Now TV and I want everyone’s money back.
-
I’m starting to think Twitter might be suspect.
-
I hear Chris Wilder’s in talks with us (source Twitter so make of that what you will). Thoughts if true?
-
Nice to see the deaf being catered for.

I’d take Terry and June at the moment to be honest. Let’s not forget JT got injured last season. If the same happened again we’d be right back where we are now (I know, if my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle). For me, to even be in this position is gross negligence.
