Villa (H) Post Match Thread

[knuckles]

Wonder how long before a City player gets a yellow card for not social distancing after we score a goal. It could be filed with that other gem - aggressive walking!

Maybe we'll get one for taking a quick free kick as well, oh hang on?????

 

[mosssideblue]

so bt are paying wages to a ex ref , who doesnt know the fucking RULES.

Looks that way, and you can include some so called pundits in that too

 

[cleavers]

Good entertaining game (once I knew we were winning it), Villa defended with a lot of luck for me, but looked dangerous on the break. I thought the back 4 were all good, the midfield too, but we seemed to lack ideas up front, with lots of half chances, but not many clear cut ones, given the number of attempts we had. We seem to be going on one of those runs again, but these clean sheets are the basis for it.

 

[give it to gordon]

Clearly handball and a penalty and once Mings plays the ball Rodri is back in play. Ming should of just the ball go pass him ! If the pundits don't know the rules they want sacking off and employ some that do know the rules

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

I hated my time at City

Maybe not in so many words but we know it

I hated his time at City as well

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

The one thing that struck me with the first goal was the players were convinced in their celebrations that it was gonna stand, whereas I didn’t celebrate at all as thought it was a mile offside

They know the laws. I, Rio Ferdinand, peter walton and thousands of united and Liverpool fans on twitter do not it seems

 

[The1nvisibleMan]

The fucking mental gymnastics going into making it out like this is dodgy is mind boggling

Not as much as we fucking hated it.

 

[KS55]

Only this.

This is correct by most peoples' interpretation of the law. It's a question of when the previous phase is over.

 

[mancity1]

Most of the press saying Kev has aggravated his ankle injury that kept in some doubt for this match.

Don't want any injuries but would prefer a knock on his ankle as opposed to doing his hamstring as some thought.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Why are blues still posting that they would be pissed off if that goal was given against us ?
Mings should have headed it clear simple. He didnt he looked round, saw Rodri there but still controlled it with his chest, he then took a second touch before Rodri tackled him.
It shows how stupid BT are, they employ an ex ref who doesnt know the rules. They also employ a drug cheat who hates City so much he still insists it was offside well just because, it is not fair Mister.
As for the second goal, they are given every week as penalties, people are only moaning because it was given for City.

Fuck 'em.

I can assure you the match day thread wouldn't be fuming about the laws of the game if Mahrez, Sterling, Gundogan, Rodri, and whoever the latest villain of the week is, if they lost the ball like that!

 

[Hayley Croppers chopper]

never give credit to a team hell bent on parking the bus and hit you on the break
also wasting time and slowing the game down and villa got what they deserver fuck all

I disagree, Villa defended resolutely and took the game to us at times.

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

Two things on Villa. They battled like fuck for a result, fair play, and that left-back, Targett, wouldn’t look out of place in our team.

Targett looked more than decent

 

[bellsouth]

I hated his time at City as well

Mings and the defence were amazing all night except they’ve cocked that goal up big time. Why are there no shouts from his team mates? He could have let it go and not touched it, he could have just belted a header away and he could even have done half of what he did do, chest it and then boot it instead of turning back into Rodri. Forget about the laws it was a goal of Villa’s making

 

[aka blue jambo]

Thing is most of the anti City brigade would not have heard Waltons weedy climbdown so still believe we cheated

Fantastic

 

[sandiegoblue]

That twat hates us ! Him and snidy Tim Howard never miss an opportunity to have a dig at us.

Well said mate.

 

[bluealf]

Ridiculous or not the LotG say penalty. I wonder what this muppet would have said had it been up the other end.

And the cheat's cheat Walton is blathering offside for the first. But if Mings got robbed by Rodrigo, who appears to have come from an offside position, it's irrelevant 'cos Mings would be the opposition touch that renders anyone onside whether yer half a yard inside the Villa half or on the goal line five yards behind the keeper - last touched by an opposition player.

Everybody who understands football knows that he was played onside by Mings touching the ball, nobody at BT or on the Villa bench understands this, frankly, I find that baffling.

 

[cleavers]

The worst of it was Walton came back and spent about 90 seconds explaining in detail why he was initially wrong & why under the rules it was a perfectly good goal. Camel Gob then said that in his opinion it shouldn't have stood!

I thought that was hillarious, his hatred of City showed live in the game, and I suspect someone has phoned him and pointed out that he was incorrect, and then ferdinand saying I bet not one player on the pitch knew the rules, I don't think many players know many of the rules, and the more obscure/convoluted they make them the worse it will get.

 

[KS55]

Fuck me ragged, that was hard work. Great defending by Villa and no real No.9 from us.

But it's working!
