    Hhmmmm should I stay up for this (00:30 ko)one and go to work on stuff all sleep. I dont like missing matches at Villa Park!

    Of course you should 🤔 Villa are far more important than work!

    The lack of attention to detail even affects the TV screens, which wished us a “save” journey home after the game on Saturday!

    Yeah I noticed that as well.  Also when the team names came up on the screens and on the electronic advertising boards around the pitch, Dougie was 'DOULAS LUIZ.' 🙄

    Well, had a look at a Pool forum. On the positive side, they definitely take the Villa seriously. A few grudgers seem to think we wrecked their CL chance. There are some "I have a bad feeling about this" types -- same as we have here. On the negative side, they think our left is vulnerable and Bailey is a real weak spot if he plays on the left. One said we're basically gate-crashers trying to get into the Big Six party and we need to be "put in our place." I wouldn't say they're disrespectful. I saw admiration for Emery and McGinn. Don't seem to realise we have Nicolo now. 

    My favourite one was "Villa are going to give us a hiding." 😁

    Wonder if they will do anything to show the Women's World Cup final before the game- maybe in the fanzone area? 

    Yes, it's going to be shown on a big screen in the fanzone area.

    The official unbiased take.

    First a qualifier, I missed the first 22 minutes so this take is based on the last three quarters of the match

    The last bit of first half looked a bit dire. Villa seemed to struggle a bit with Bolton's press, the attacking intent looked a bit unsure and infrequent. Second half after the penalty (looked potentially off side to me, but I did not have a VAR micrometer handy, was it checked, was it obvious?). 

     

    No VAR as they don't have it in League One.

    Decent game, gave the nation some fun on a Sunday afternoon in a game that doesn't really matter to us.

    I thought for the most part we played well, their first goal changed the mood to a massive extent and it's hard to do anything about that; when a really good team suddenly has momentum, motivation and belief it's a tough game - but I thought we showed enough to be positive about next season and there's stuff to build on.

    I don't think we're as far off as it might appear from a distance.

    Bring on the summer.

    Agreed. We just need a natural and instinctive goalscorer...which Watkins isn't! If he'd taken a couple of his chances, we'd have been 4-0 up.
