[Albion] Aston Villa vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[dangull]

These red cards are costing a few big points this season. Cant blame Potter, everything was looking good in both games until a player spoils it.

 

[The Wizard]

Very unlucky sending off imo. I don’t agree this indicates a discipline problem, just a very harsh yellow for basically extremely minimal contact. Poor refereeing. Also Grealish should reaction was pathetic.

Going to be tough now, would probably settle for a point.

On a yellow card and you go in like that? It’s absurd, whether he pulled out or not he’s lunged from behind, it’s a ridiculous decision

Moody's first bookstore by was the most annoying.

Yep, what was he thinking? The high street is dead. BTW, who is Moody?

Foooking hate that dickhead with the stupid haircut!

I would have loved to play against him, a lot of hair roughing up, not sure he could take that, and if he could you can always kick him!

 

[Sheebo]

Okay so we are 1 goal and 1 man adrift, can Potter retrieve this away from home?

One thing I think we all know now he won't be sitting back to sneak a last-minute set-piece!

The stats are really quite good for an away performance.

They’d have read so so much better after 35 mins. We were a class above them. That’s why that red is so annoying.

 

[Icy Gull]

Holy **** me!

That was an eventful half. We looked to be cruising for 35 minutes, not a question of if we'd win but by how many. Then Mooy gets a stupid red card, Villa get their tails up, we go into wobble mode and it all goes tits up. Var is ridiculous, their goal should have stood. Wish that one had and Grealish's hadn't. He's very objectionable isn't he(although to be fair he is playing very well).

Burn needs help on the left. He was struggling a bit with Mooy in front, now with nobody he's all at sea. Maybe we should go the three at the back, bring Duffy in to man handle Wesley and put Burn or Alzate at wing back. Keep Stephens and Propper in the middle and play with two of Maupay, Connolly or Gross up front.

Whatever we do we're going to do well to get out of this with anything now which is very very frustrating.

Yeah I think we need Duffy in for Burn for the muscle and clearances we are going to need if we are going to get anything from this game. I’d also bring Alzate on for Connolly.

Has to be damage limitation and rely on breaks doesn’t it?

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Yep... let's line up the escape goats now shall we?

Line up the what now?

We've thrown away another game we should have won which is really ****ing annoying. We dominated until the red card and even after the dubious VAR disallowed goal we couldn't hold on until half time. We'll lose 3/4-1 despite dominating before the red. Really ****ing annoying.

 

[Brok]

We played bloody well in the first half, I shall be astonished if we don't smash these wannabees in the second.

Chichester City, looking to get into the first rd proper of the FA Cup 1st time since the 60's.


West Sussex la la la......

 

[Deadly Danson]

Mooy was silly for the second tackle which was no doubt a yellow, but the first one is awful refereeing. The villa player took the free kick about 5/6 yards away from the foul (and I use that word lightly!)

Not how I saw it. What Mooy did was very deliberate and stupid. I will never understand the stupidity of footballers. Sometimes you might get away with it but it was so obvious the ref had little choice.

Blimey. Hope the team don't give up as easily as you do!

 

[hoof hearted]

3 clueless defenders between the ball and Grealish .....

Anyone know if Ben White can be recalled? I'd rather have him playing at CB over Burn.

 

[The Wizard]

Just popping out to get some popcorn for the Aaron Mooy thread binfest after we lose this

Burn is playing left back, clueless.

Line up the what now?

Have you lost your NSC phrase book? When the wheels come loose the goats escape.

 

[Dolph Ins]

I'd bring on March for Connolly

Blue and White specs on
He pulled out and the little shit made the most of it

Neutral specs on
He pulled out and the little shit made the most of it

 

[um bongo molongo]

Can we get Hughton back just for 45 mins? Need one of his back to the wall, never leaving our half performances
