Re the Bent substitution - call it negative if you want but at least it was the first time I actually agreed with our manager being 'negative' Correct call by the manager.

Hutton - to increase his popularity amongst the villa supporters by launching Stewart Downing into the upper Doug Ellis

Really imoortant result yesterday. I thought we played really well against a pretty poor bolton. I cant see why everyone has a downer on our 2ND half performance. Bolton were always going to come out and try to get back in the game and i kust admit that although we werent as good as we had been in the first half i never thought the result was in any doubt. We dealt comfortably with any threat bolton posed and still created the two best chances of the half. With some better finishing we good quite easily have won by 3 or 4. Given our form of late there were far more positives than negatives

I can feel another 'Lets pretend we've scored a goal' coming

The way the manager set us up Bent is a total passenger in this team . As pathetic as it seems we'd be better off playing Heskey in that role

Has villa talk ever been so united

Can anybody seriously tell us that the players within our squad are not good enough to play at a higher tempo and with more drive and committment than how this clown sends the team out. I can't remember ever going to the Manure game where the crowd was so quiet. We new what to expect from the very first minute. NO belief and its running right through the club

I'm in the 'fortunate' position to be able to have a season ticket for me and my son. But if I was someone who was just able to pick and choose, there would be no way I'd waste my money whilst this negative minge is in charge. I've just paid another £24 for my 8 year old daughter to come to the Liverpool fixture. What a prat I am

Got mine. maybe we should do what we did at liverpool last year with the lets pretend we've scored a goal. Think were gonna have to make our own entertainment

What a great draw perfect for getting us acclimatised to the type of ground we'll be visiting if the ginger one hangs around

I think this was meant for the Mcleish thread

The worst part about all this is that no matter how shit we all think heskey is he would still be better suited to the roll darren bent is being asked to play. we have arguably the best goal scorer in the league and his contribution to this side and in the pathetic way in which the side is set up is absolutely zero. Cant believe it but in this current set up the manager should pick heskey ahead of bent and that tells you everything about the idiot in charge

United wont have an easier three points than that all season. they didnt have to break sweat. what really pisses me off is that we have players that are capable of playing high tempo but this clown sends us out to play deep and allowvthe opposition to dictate possession we played man u today and didnt have a single yellow card and that tells me that there isnt the desire or belief to get about them and put pressure on them. The whole atmosphere within the ground told me that there wasnt a single person in claret and blue who had the belief that the result was gonna be anything other than what it was. Absolutely pathetic

After the way he left us i'd never have him back unless we'd got a complete idiot incharge - oh wait a minute

Advice - get there early in time for the pre match warm up. it'll be your only chance to see a villa player have a shot

av mu possession 23% 77% shots 1 15 on target 0 10 Goals 0 3

I agree but say it to a United/sky fan and you will be killed Its a bit like us old un's trying to justify Peter Withe as the greatest player ever to grace the game. Which of course he was

Trevor Francis = Million pound my arse Eric Cantona right player right time final piece in the jigsaw etc but world class not a chance

this Top bloke will be greatly missed. There aren't many who would get the CEO turn up for a funeral

grandstand Sportsnight

Why is it even when were shit and know that the kind of football we're likely to witness will be dull and boring am I still mad for it. Roll on tomorrow

I'm on a coach stopping at Osmothersley Great chippy next door as well

Or alternatively he misses a sitter and then Sunderland score a last minute winner
