Forgive my ignorance, but how does that work? :oops:

Great work by Aston Villa, welcome Darren. Up The Villa.

Why did the Sunderland fans give him stick?

because he misses more than he scores and apparently he should be scoring 4 goals every game.

To be a great goalscorer, you don't have to be an unbelievable finisher. That's what people I don't think get. If you get in the right position regularly, you'll score goals, you'll also miss some. That's football.

Hence why Gabby has done very little this season, he's not been getting into the right places which he has done in past seasons.

Why did the Sunderland fans give him stick?

They had a pop at his mum I seem to recall, which he took offence to.

Lets not get carried away here.

Still slightly suprised if this happens as Sunderland have less strikers than we do, if Bent leaves they will only have Gyan as their recognised forward with Welbeck on loan from Man.u.

Gonna be a very tough game, we will be lucky to come away with a point.

Does Ridgewell have a brother??

Smoke bomb, here we go...

We'll ave' em' now..come on..

COME ON VILLA

1/2 hour left, come on boys,ffs.

Right, half time boiled egg and soldiers...

I think G.H needs to swap Gabby and Downing, both ineffective in their respective positions.

Nice to see bentley has come dressed as a scruffy tramp so that he fits in

Let em sing all they like..We shall win this game. Tossers!!

clark hits the crossbar !!

Carew off the crossbar, fouled the defender in the process.

Not sure why Gabby is over on the left?

Should be 4-0

'should' being the operative word. It is'nt.

Come on lads, just find the net please.

Warnock not even on the bench, on his way out possibly??

Get stuck in there Dunny... this is gonna be a cracking game.

Good effort from Downing..

Nice little embrace from the two managers there before kick off. COME ON THE VILLA!!!!

Ahh "Shit on the Villa" already!!!! And Gabby nearly scores, just put it over... Unlucky Laddie....
