The problem is not the home fans, the problem is what is happening on the pitch and that is caused by what has happened to Mr Lerner. You have a fearful team that is not quite good enough and often a passive and nervous atmosphere at VP. That is why we get more points away from VP.

You can rely on the teams around us to be well organised, we, even when we have had decent results look like we can unravel at any time. 2 loses from the next 2 and we will be down

I guess from your comments we probably view PL in the same way, ie not totally convinced but pleased he seems to be getting it right most of the time. We were a wondergoal away from losing today.

Yes he got it wrong with KEA and gets it wrong every time he puts him on the pitch. The problem is that he has gambled withour Premier League ststus.

We will find out about Lerners intent for the club this summer, if he sells Benteke then just forget any chance of glory until new owners.

Was that when he setteled on the current formation 4-3-3 although he does tweak it a bit.

Hilarious. Fantastic win. Thank god he finally saw sense at half time against Newcastle. Deserves credit for our improvement for getting his decisions right recently. Lets hope he's able to achieve the bare minimum he should this season. What happened at half time at Newcastle?

It was a boom shakattack roadblock of a goal

Yes didnt some young men run around Villa Park with a European Youth trophy and then a few years later some of those same blokes ran around Villa Park with a much bigger Trophy.

Still too close call any of us Norwich Newcastle Sunderland Wigan Stoke could go on a good or a bad run, we need at least 6 more points.

Apparently there are a few problems in the dressing room at Sturke.

Sidwell was not good enough for us as aTop 6 team, he would or should walk into our midfield, that is how far we have fallen

the defensive record is as much to do with the shockingly weak midfield as the lack of experience at the back.

Just read a few pages back, how any one cant see that this is a massive achievement for our club, deep down in the heart of football its about blokes going out to play as a team, being proud of thier team and supporting thier mates. Our boys did that against a load of globally scouted primadonas from Chelsea who thought that all they needed to do was fly in thier superstar and the trophy would be theres. Well it didnt work out like that, we were more of a team and a few lads showed real promise, for a few others this might be the biggest night in fottball and they will remember it for the rest of thier lives, remembering it wearing a Villa shirt. Most of us would swap places with them right now.

Jack is special, no doubt and there is no doubt that he will be given his chance. It is a massive step up though and pickning the right time is crucial. Very very proud of the way our lads handled themselves tonight. UTV
