EMBARRASSING, the only way you can sum that up .
The only bright points, you can pick out, are OHare, Landsbury and Davis looking fit .
Biggest shock of the day, besides Maginn playing, was Hutton at CH .
What's happened to all the uptempo, game we where playing? Obviosly Deano realises, w don't have the players, to keep it up . Wellen was the only one, making any attempt at pressing them .
Most of them who played today, should give their wages to charity, disgrace .
Deano might as we have played, more of the U23s, al least the would of tried .
Onwards&Upwards Villaforever.

Why do people keep crying out for the U23s or youngsters. They're not good enough! All the managers we've had and not one of them has picked 3 or 4 of the youngsters. Why? They're not good enough.
O'Hare did not play well today. Be honest.
All that happens by filling the team with kids is brings them into a losing or failing team and then it lowers their confidence.
We're not strong enough to drop a youngster in here and there and get away with it.

Oh dear, today was embarrassing to say the least! Still not sure how new GK didn’t gather ball for the first?! We were so pedestrian and lacked pressing that I thought SB was manager again! Why did McGinn play when he has tired against Stoke and Leeds?! Thought again Hutton’s play at times was poor and as for Hogan at last I am resided to him never regaining his Brentford form in claret and blue!
O’Hare is miles off still from first team credentials but I was pleased with Lansbury who looked hungry and spread the ball well! We made 6 changes and can focus on the league. If lose Tammy then JK has to shine again. Remain hopeful for the playoffs VTID.
