Good morning.
There was always going to be a period of bedding in, gelling, call it what you will. A new manager, new systems indeed, new players. What we were subjected to yesterday was nothing to do with any of that. It was a straightforward act of sabotage.
Huddlestone, Dawson and Lennon are by default ‘senior players’ – believe it or don’t – and their contributions stank the place out.
Huddlestone looked like he’d been smoking ketamine. Possibly for weeks on end. Dawson looked like he was on day release from a borstal. Lennon could quit football tomorrow and get a job in panto playing any one of the seven dwarves you might care to name. And Walker, Walker the living brain donor.
What makes me so angry is that these guys are all better than this.
The Europa is worth pursing. But not if you’re going to waste everyone’s time and serve up garbage like this.
The opposition were poor. But even they couldn’t believe how generous we were and it took them a while for it to sink in that we were throwing the game.
Maybe I’m wrong. If so then the real positive is that if you did have a punt on this due to a tip off, then at this stage there has been no official announcement of unusual betting patterns and you seem to have got away with it.
There was no tactical breakdown, no superior opponent, rather it was an open and shut case of collective mickey taking. The stupidity of footballers is revealed every week. But this takes some beating. Did they think nobody was watching?
That was like watching a game where both teams had fixed the match with bookies on a dour draw.
Ugh. I had to eat a massive slice of cheesecake just to get over that.
Villa are steadily and stealthily improving. We just made that game a lot tougher. We’ll get hit without Jan in the middle. But with him on left I hope him and Bale can combine to get out of the hole we may dig ourselves into.
We’ll annihilate Villa.
What flavour cheesecake ?
Cheese flavour.
NewYork baby – Au Naturale!
Just seen the after-match chat by AVB.He always ends up saying after a disappointment ‘we now have a few days to put things right’ or words to that effect.Yeah, dream on loser.
Adding a “ly” is a poor effort.
You aren’t exactly endearing yourself on here are you?
You could have called yourself “ATWAT” or something similar.
Atwatly….. ;-)
Ratatwatprat.

Oh lets forget about all this. tonite. inverness 0 ross county 0. IM off down bill hill.
OOO and Daren Bent 1st goal sundee. ££££££££
i bet avb cant wait for kaboul to be fit. Consider walker benched and extra training sessions to boot.
not the perfect solution but a short sharp shock to get him thinking again.
seems that some of the players are believing their own press. This is where avb needs to get his ginger arse into gear and take no prisoners. what needs to be done to rectify this will happen – of this i am certain. Just grateful it has happened now when we can get away with it.

Naughton is a RB, he can play there. I don’t think he’s quite as quick as Walker but have a suspicion that he may be able to defend and generally play football better.
I initially read that as “don’t think he’s quite as thick as Walker.”
mud isn’t as thick as Walker…
Blood is thicker than Walker…….but only just..
