A glorious triumph for the 12 men of Aston Villa!

Great result.

A bit of a mugging but still.

Bent is **** class, happy we are safe. LV: deleted... ZZZzzz... Good on the villa fans, they sounded great also.

seen us play much better and lose this season but such is football

Brad MoTM and justified my player of the year vote for him

[Brumerican]

We could finish 9th !

[HungryVillan]

Nice one!

I thinking of having Bent's children

[AVFC-Prideofbrum]

Plenty of players could have got MOTM but I gave it to Walker who defended without any fault all game.

Bent obviously easily could have got it. The obvious choice. Reo-Coker was excellent also, Dunne and Collins were good, nearly very good but both made errors again. Luke Young had a really good game. Petrov did okay, Delph did okay, showed glimses of class but off the pace at times which is no surprise.

We could finish 9th !

If we knock 29 against Liverpool we can finish 8th!

The silver lining on a big black cloud of a season.

Looking forward to MOTD - for a change.

I think ou midfield made more mistakes than the center halves, Some really poor passing by Reo and Delph IMO.

I know Bent scored 2, but Brad was my MOTM, he kept us in that game and done a lot better coming off his line.

[villadude]

Chuffed to bits, I predicted we'd get battered as well, so more than happy to have been proved wrong.

[avfcgoodie]

I love Darren Bent.

[lexicon]

A lot of credit to McAllister today who has taken a lot of flak.

Deride him for fuckups, credit him for successes.

Nice one Gary.

[AstonMartin82]

A Birmingham lose, and a Wigan or Blackpool draw means relegation for them. Everything went Villa's way today.

Referee was awful today. Bent was amazing. Can't believe MON never bought him.

I'm just glad this season is over now. It's has been a roller coaster and I don't ever want another season like this.

[bose]

I was absolutely sure we would get hammered so the result was a nice surprise.

[AstonMartin82]

Three years on the spin Darren. THREE!
