Stats are meaningless if you don't win the game as we have proved the other way round time and time again. I wholeheartedly agree with you about stats being meaningless. However, the point of my post was to allude to the fact that many people have been posting about how shit we have been in the past by having less than ideal possession, not having shots on targets etc etc. Now that we do, people are shouting about how sh*t we are because we haven't scored a goal whilst (pretty much) dominating the game. We are making chances, we just need that little extra in front of goal. It may very well end up being a frustrating result, but I can't personally fault the way we have gone into this game so far. Bottom line; People can't have it both way, especially when it comes to Villa.

So many insane comments in this match thread... Time and time again we see people posting in the Paul Lambert thread, the QPR pre match thread, XXX thread (take your pick), saying how we need to keep possession and make chances, we've had 61% possession (according to the BBC), 8 shots (4 on target), vs QPR's 1 shot on goal and well, 1 goal. I think we have done almost everything right in the first half, we've just not finished the chances we have had, and been a little shaky at at the back. In my opinion that happens in Premiership football. But the game I am watching is a damn sight better than the game I watched against Everton. More of the same please, Villa. Just some better clinical finishing.

Agreed (excellent for 15 minutes). Not sure with all the posters who are posting how sh*t we have been when we've dominated for the first 15, and they get one shot, one goal :/

2 points off relegation position, yet a win will see us move back up the table to 8th. I'd really like to hope that we'll go there with huge intent to not only win, but also to start recovering our goal difference. If that will end up happening however, I'm not so sure. 0 - 1 Villa

I'll use the term 'highlights' very loosely as this game wasn't televised in many places around the world. I was watching it in a bar with my laptop so couldn't capture any sort of decent stream. This is what's out there so far, I'll update the thread if other videos become available. Highlights - 06:51 - English - 720p Match of the Day - Saturday - 720p

He's on the bench unfortunately Not to say he couldn't start against Everton next week though.

A little bit of a change of pace from the last few pages of posts, but apparently Lambert and Tom Fox are flying to New York to speak with Randy. Hopefully we can get the remaining contracts wrapped up relatively quickly, and get some sort of idea what kind of money we will have to spend in January.

Damn, you got me :/

New scoop lads, entirely legit!

When Roy Keane wants an egg, he cracks a chicken! Roy Keane has already been to Mars, the locals pissed him off, that's why there are no signs of life there. Roy Keane has a grizzly bear rug in his house, the bear isn't dead, it's just afraid to move. Roy Keane doesn't call the wrong number, you answer the wrong phone! Roy Keane doesn't flush the toilet, he scares the sh*t out of it. Roy Keane can light a fire by rubbing two ice cubes together. All men are created equal. Equally inferior to Roy Keane. Roy Keane once ordered a Big Mac at Burger King, and got one. It's a little known fact that Roy Keane was in all 6 Star Wars movies... as the force.

Arsenal Pre Match Interview.. Talks a little about Benteke, Kozak, the fans support etc

Villa are 25/1 to finish top 6 on Bet365, I stuck a cheeky fiver on Villa are 2500/1 to win the title. I stuck a quid on each way, so taking the title or finishing 2nd nets me an easy £2,500 Back in the real world, I said 10th after the first game. I think I'll place my bet on us to finish 8th.

Should this work on an iPad? Yep, and iPhone obviously. I find that there is much more buffering when using it on an iDevice though.

I haven't read all 340 pages of this thread, so my apologies if this was posted before, but it is one of my favourites, and much better said face to face with emotion... Three guys go in for a job interview, all at the same office. The first one goes in for his interview and the boss says, "What's one thing you notice about me?" "Well", the guy says, "You've.. you've got no ears." The boss says in angered voice, "That's it, get out!" The second applicant takes his turn, sits down, and is asked "What's one thing you notice about me?". The applicant replies "I don't mean to be rude, but you've got no ears." The boss stands up in a fit of rage and shouts "Get out of my office!" As the second applicant is leaving, he warns the third guy in the waiting room, "Listen man, whatever you do, don't say the obvious, OK?" The third applicant nods, and proceeds inside the office... "So 'Mr third applicant'" the boss says with a wryly smile, "What is one thing you notice about me". The third applicant thinks for a moment, and response with "I can tell you're wearing contact lenses". "Very good" the boss replies, "How did you know that". The applicant replies with "Well you can't wear glasses can you? You've got no **** ears". "GET OUT!"

A few years back this happened to me. All 4 players would be present in the squad but it wouldn't let you 'submit' the squad for the Gameweek until you made a transfer. A friend said many years ago the transfer was just 'reversed' so when he went back after the real life transfer was complete, Fantasy didn't show the new player, and the old player he tried to replace was still in the squad. No idea what they do now, it's come on quite a bit since i started playing all those years back.

Like many others, I have ate my words in regards to Gabby and Andi, they both played brilliantly today. Just hope it wasn't a flash in the pan and they can both perform during our 'month of hell'. Others have pretty much summed up everything else I thought. Highlights here for any who are interested. Full game 1st half here, 2nd half here - all 720p.

Started off really lively, Delph his the bar early on, then the goal came. The momentum seems to have dropped off slightly now though.

Does getting a lump in your throat over a YouTube video count? Kid: Oh, wooden board! *Smiles* Dad: What does it say? Kid: It's nice, it is to put meat on it and cut it with a knife. Now I'm only missing a fork. Dad: Yes but, what does the card say? Kid: I've read it already, "for you to eat barbecue with your knife. We love you a lot, Mom and Dad". Kid: Thanks. *kisses Mom* Mom: You can use any fork, I love you. --- Other gift --- Dad: What does it say? Kid: For you to not use Poxiran* any longer. (*Poxiran is a glue commonly used to glue shoes together). Kid: Wow, new shoes!... I won't have to use Poxiran any more... .... then the real gift...
