The_Lions_Roar Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Presenter on WM - "You'd rather lose these games and stay up though." Some knuckledragger - "No, beating Villa is what it's all about. I'd rather go down and win." small heath, small time.... I love beating them just because you know their season is now over after 5 games I heard that while on my way back, its an absolute disgrace to think like that. When walking out i got called a horrible villa supporter haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed it early, tried to win it - we did - 8 A very good day at the office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Oh and their fans were **** shocking! What fans? All i could hear was our fans singing Gabbys song half the time Can't believe they didnt sell out their 'cup final' despite having cheaper tickets and being at home. Says it all really. Also, kinda feel bad for Craig Gardner. Woulda loved to see him get stuck in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Dare I say it, but we got down and wrestled with the pigs today, and came away relatively clean It was a tough son of a bitch of a game. The blues were dogged and played pretty well, and it was probably only the presence of an all-new, all-improved defence that proved the difference in the end. The inclusion of Cuellar at RB puzzled me, but he did the job, giving us an extra solid foundation that probably assisted the three noobs to adjust. It was a close first half but I suspect that it was the fact that Milner was having an absolute nightmare that kept them in the match. Had several chances to put it to be but he was dire. Into everything, but botched the lot. I am a huge Milner fan, I hope he can bounce back next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 3 new defenders. I think they know each other well enough by now. In fact they seemed to have known each other already for a few years. I don't want to see Carlos at RB again, but what a fine, gritty defender he is, Dunne and Warnock started well and got better, Collins blimey, West Ham you wuz robbed.

Hanky Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Get in. Well done boys, as a poster above states, get the job done and it's what we did. Another three points in the bag too. Special mention to Dunne and Collins who I thought were awesome. If they carry that on we have two players on our hands there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briggaman Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 There isn't any better feeling in th world - is there !! It does feel amazing! However I would rather win a trophy than beat the blues, whereas they would rather beat us than win a trophy. Quite sad really. Then again, I doubt they would ever win a trophy, other than the Championship or the Auto Windscreen (whatever it's called). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicMarlon Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Did we sell out our allocation? Some nob on Facebook reckons Villa didn't which I can't believe... Yes we did and the commentators on Sky acknowledged this. There looked like some empty seats in the corner, but these are tickets that wasn't on sale due to the restricted view. Every available ticket was sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
