Doug

Cesko 5 touches including 2 hopelessly off target headers. What a shame.

He was my idol when I started going to the game in the 60's. I can remember hearing the Leazes end chanting to the tune of Manfred Manns 'the mighty Quinn'. No goalkeeper came for a cross confidently when he was contesting it. RIP Wyn, my first football hero.

Fox in the henhouse time for Doug as I currently live 20 miles from Villa park

Calvert Lewin What a miss

I think Nick Pope will have the game of his life & we will snatch it at the end 0-1 Anthony Gordon.

In our 1988-89 relegation season, I remember we shocked everyone by winning 1-2 at Anfield with Mirandhina scoring the winner then running behind the goal kissing the badge in front of the Kop. No-one expected that at the time. Would'nt it be great if our new Brazilian was to reprise that role only this time we don't get relegated.

I'm still here! been celebrating the departure of Ashley since Thursday. This will be a tough game as the rest of the league will want us relegated by Christmas. The first time I saw this fixture was 1968 when we lost 1-3 to a Spurs side with Jimmy Greaves. Wyn Davies was my hero then. Born in 1956 the year after our last major domestic trophy the FA cup in 1955 I now have renewed hope of actually seeing us winning one of the big ones in my lifetime. Roll on January & stay out of the bottom 3.

Well that was shite was'nt it?

I bet we are all gutted for poor old Catts on here.

Tried hard and played well as usual. (tin hat on)

I had written this lad off but have to say he was excellent against Everton. always involved, creative and actually tackling back leaving opponents Writhing in a heap on a couple of occasions although their play acting was outrageous. No wonder half our team was booked. If Atsu can maintain this level of performance he could stay in the side.

Its been a while, Hello N-O I'm still here ! More mid table mediocrity this season, but no relegation

Staying up, but no momentum to improve next year unless Ashley does the right thing and sells up.

I think this lad is playing well and was particularly good at Brighton. Some of the criticism, not so much on here, is way over the top imo.

"we'll talk more about Newcastle later" aye right Anyone remember Ray Stubbs one man crusade to get Cabaye retrospectively banned after the match at Brighton in 2012. He seemed to devote half the tv programme to it.
