OutByEaster? Posted April 1, 2023 Moderator Share Posted April 1, 2023 Ah well, West Ham vs Southampton means they'll most likely be back in there tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they have 26 points and Leicester have 25 points so they couldn't have been in the bottom 3. So the BBC must have had that wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Much prefer West Ham and Everton. Leeds are never going to be a threat for where our aspirations lie and Leicester are on a downward spiral these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - looks like they did - the table they were showing for most of the afternoon was a mess, with some teams updated and some not, it wasn't even labelled as in-play.

I haven't seen the incident at all though. His face is certainly pulling the motion of spitting, but can’t see any more than that. I think nothing further will happen, unless they have better quality visual to prove he did actually spit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobsons Choice Posted April 1, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 1, 2023 I know it was technically second phase, but the de bruyne goal for Man City felt a bit like dirty pool. De bruyne miles offside when the ball is played wide, runner pelts it down the wing and passes backward for him to score. Not sure what the purpose of offside is sometimes. Defender has to stay back to cover an offside man just in case he becomes active. I thought offside was in part to stop goal hanging, but that seems like a viable tactic now if you have fast players who can beat defenders to the by line.

All the videos about Chelsea being bad and Potter under pressure soon as they lose vs us too. Even though they are actually back in form with 3 wins out of 4.

Us and Chelsea are the only two safely midtable sides and the game had the fewest goals in it of all games (Forest vs Wolves also 2 goals, but a massive game). We were bound to be on last unless the game was a particular banger for the neutral - and most people would've enjoyed seeing us beat Chelsea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree But with the expectation the sack is looming for potter I'd have thought they'd have bumped that angle Villas story isn't really that major until we catch a European spot, we've had a fine run of form but been 11th for ages The match commentary, if you're someone who watches villa on TV every week or even just watches football on TV every week the commentators are not there for you...that's how it's been for donkeys years, they don't pitch the game at die hard villa fans or even die hard Chelsea fans, they aim it at people who have a passing interest but might watch again next week if they enjoy it, same with the pre and post game stuff I'm not sure why people get so hung up on it or even bother with most of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
