Hutton was fine, there was alot worse than him today. He is no worse than Luke Young. Yes he did make a couple of mistakes, but when match fit I believe he will be a decent player.

Defensively, he was dire. His positioning and closing down is very poor. Hopefully he will get better with games, but his lack of Football over the last 12 months, shows.

He really wasn't that bad, considering he is fitting in to a new side and it was only his second match, he was better than the first match (granted not that hard to be) but I think his positioning being poor was due to his lack of football and fitness (as you also suggested) .

He looked a threat going forward and think he will still work out to be a good solid signing at the least

Once again we're second best and are lucky to get away with a point. Other than Blackburn we've been outplayed in every single game home and away. I'm furious and gutted about how bad we have become. Sorry state of affairs.

MOTM Given yet again. The only reason we're not in the bottom 3.

Yes Newcastle were the better team for most of the match, but e missed 2 absolute sitters, one of them when we were 1-0 up and would've put the match out of sight.

Unbeaten still but too many draws. Not sure how you can say it's a sorry state of affairs as this lot beat us 6-0 last year so if anything that result is an improvement.

We didn't play that well but could as easily have won the match. There are problems in linking the play, and two key players in Bent and CNZ don't seem right yet, but the way people are talking it sounds like we've lost 5 out of 5!

But we beat them 1-0 in this fixture last year, it was 6-0 away.

Given man of the match, says a lot.

The way we played, a draw is a good result. Defended for large periods of the game and were poor going forward. Didnt really test the Newcastle keeper.

Hutton was decent enough and apart from a couple of mistakes Warnock played well.

Zog showed glimpses of what he can do when on form but most of what he did was awful. Delph would be a similar summary.

All in all no where good enough at home,sorry for the Villa Park crowd they deserve better.

Newcastle trying to win the game, we are trying to hold on to th draw, horribe performance

It feels like we have been really bad going forward, maybe on reflection after it wont seem like that, but at the moment we look so bad going forward.

WORLD class save by Given on first view

Given still by far the busier keeper, by far!

Brilliant Warnock, really superb double tackle, credit where it is due!

Better last 5 mins, come on Villa

Better Zog, thats what we want and Albrighton has looked his old self again.

I think we need to hope for a point today and go back to the drawing board

Oh my god, Zog really poor, so poor, we need our so called star players to step up - Bent & Zog have to do better

Damnnnnnn

Ireland for Petrov

Too many times you look at the pitch and we have 11 Villa men in our own half, not good enough, certainly not ambitious enough

Newcastle still on the front foot and us sitting back, makes no sense. We need to start taking the game to them or risk losing this.

They have created far more chances than us and if you give a team 10 - 20 chances its only a matter of time until they score

Its been coimg, we cant sit back like this 1-1

Strange, we seem to be dropping deep again. Its like we have taken a 1-0 lead against Manu or something and hoping we can hang on.

Hmm Ive seen Zog been tracking back alot. Poor quality so far but working hard to help for sure

good pass in to gabby just now

Yeah you can see he does have the quality, just maybe lost a bit of confidence but Im sure it will come

Sooo close Gabby, great run from Hutton and superb strength from Gabby

Half time, positves - we are leading and we have kept clean sheet. Petrov playing with more freedom and Hutton not too bad.

Negatves - Delph and Zog not yet finding form, sitting too deep, Bents miss.

Yep, we need half time. last 10 minutes have been horrible. Nearly all Newcastle
