Would have liked to have to the Villa Blues game, but will be on my honeymoon.

by westisbest Tue Sep 22, 2015 7:03 am

So the bluenoses visit villa park tonight.

Have to get the win. Cant have those boys beating us.

Hope there is no nonsense by either set of fans.

by MIG Tue Sep 22, 2015 11:01 am

Tough game for us at Reading tonight. We are playing well so far this season but boy do we like to go out in the cup against lower league sides.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Sep 22, 2015 5:08 pm

We'll be out to Leicester tonight. Don't like it but wont cry. Carroll getting some minutes will be great.

by NickisBHAFC Tue Sep 22, 2015 6:13 pm

I'm so happy were out of this tournament.

That being said looking forward to watching the big derbies.

by compelling and rich Tue Sep 22, 2015 7:10 pm

city putting out a very strong side. dont really understand that. bony really needs a run out (and a goal) and we know what aguero injury record is like. i can understand de bruyne needing games while he's settling in but toure, sterling etc nearly played every game this season. they've got champions league next week after spurs away

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Sep 22, 2015 7:40 pm

We're gonna lose 1-0 to west brom through like a Craig Dawson header in the 15th minute

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Sep 22, 2015 7:51 pm

Villa looking at their level against championship opposition

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:12 pm

Birmingham playing much the better football

by compelling and rich Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:14 pm

city game very strange, sunderland all over them and 2-0 down. stupid challenge for a pen and a break away goal. sunderland harshly had one ruled off and haven't taken their other chances

by NickisBHAFC Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:17 pm

City 2-0 up already. Long night in store one would presume at the stadium of light.

by compelling and rich Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:20 pm

3-0 now, sterling misses a sitter bounces off the post and into the keeper into the net

by compelling and rich Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:22 pm

better by him 4-0

by NickisBHAFC Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:24 pm

4-0

I always said the appointment of Advocat was stupid, keeping him on after luckily escaping last season was a laughable decision.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:39 pm

Booing your team off at half time when the score is 0-0 in a derby game

And people wonder why I dislike Aston villa

by NickisBHAFC Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:45 pm

Don't see the problem. They were shocking in the first half. This game means a lot to there fans, there demanding a response for the 2nd half.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Sep 22, 2015 8:56 pm

It's 0-0 and they weren't that great - get behind your team ffs

by Fernando Tue Sep 22, 2015 9:05 pm

Villa 1-0 Brum - Gestede

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Sep 22, 2015 9:18 pm

Demerai Gray is a heck of a talent

by Fernando Tue Sep 22, 2015 9:20 pm

He's what Nathan Redmond aspires to be Whistle

by NickisBHAFC Tue Sep 22, 2015 9:32 pm

Will we see another Villa pitch invasion?

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Sep 22, 2015 10:12 pm

Stuck with 120 minutes and gonna lose anyway. Deservedly so, I may add, but id rather have just lost in 90 and not wasted energy.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Sep 22, 2015 10:18 pm

Mug ref mind you, but we seemed disinterested and shuffled the squad around in the game to lose impetus.

by NickisBHAFC Tue Sep 22, 2015 10:40 pm

Hull 1-0 Swansea the only upset of note tonight.

Looks pretty poor to me.

Poor first half last night.

Don't really agree with booing, but at the same time team needs to do better.

Much better second half. Ayew looked good. Young Jack was very good to.

pretty average, he would of been snapped up already, if that wasn't the case. fact he couldn't even produce against a pretty poor villa side, says everything.

Agree 100%, still not getting mistaken for Barcelona any time soon but infinitely better second half. On that performance how Gabby has been keeping Ayew out of the side is a complete mystery. Grealish looked quality, just seems to make things happen and provide attacking impetus. Gestede looks a bit clumsy at times, but genuinely think if you get crosses into the box he will get his share of goals

by NickisBHAFC Wed Sep 23, 2015 6:19 pm

Demari Gray is decent for his age. But he has a LOT to work on if he wants to become a premiership player.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed Sep 23, 2015 6:38 pm

Gestede will score with the right service. Its down to Sherwood to choose if he wants his widemen to play a game with more hugging the touchline and providing balls into the box or not. Currently thats not the side he seems to be setting out.

by compelling and rich Wed Sep 23, 2015 7:04 pm

very strong team from us tonight, mostly makes sense.

rooney needs to be playing as much as possible or else his fat arse gets out of shape even more. herrera, felliani, young and valencia needed a game and its good to see perreria given a start

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed Sep 23, 2015 7:27 pm

How long until managers start resting themselves for games? Giggs could take this one, good experience for him.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:11 pm

Classic Flamini, always there if the keeper spills it Shocked

by Fernando Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:12 pm

Spuds 0-1 Arsenal - Flamini

shocking keeping from Vorm.

by **Crimey** Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:28 pm

Danny Ings scores to put Liverpool ahead. Scores a header from a cross that Benteke would have loved to have got when he was playing!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:30 pm

5,500 Ipswich fans chanting about "supporting" their local team.

They took 480 fans to Leeds last week.

Lolz

by **Crimey** Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:32 pm

Can is pushing really high meaning Liverpool are practically playing 2-7-1, lots of pressure on Carlisle's defence when they have the ball but there is a chance Carlisle with a good ball could get in.

Glad Rodgers started a strong team, got to take the Capital One Cup seriously this season.

by Fernando Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:34 pm

Newcastle being booed off at HT and tbf Olly would you want to go to Leeds i mean really Laugh

by **Crimey** Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:35 pm

Liverpool 1-1 Carlisle

Pathetic. Need to put this game to bed in second half, no point having all the attacking play when you concede that easily.

by Fernando Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:39 pm

Should of kept Iago Aspas who is currently taking Barcelona apart Laugh

by NickisBHAFC Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:42 pm

Tbf Carlisle are an established football league team.

Leeds the city is a cracking place, Elland Road less so.

It's taken you this long to figure that Nick Laugh

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed Sep 23, 2015 9:08 pm

Jarvis really has made a decent start to his spell here. Looks like hes recapturing his Wolves form

by Fernando Wed Sep 23, 2015 9:10 pm

HM Son on for Spurs
Alexis on Arsenal

by NickisBHAFC Wed Sep 23, 2015 9:10 pm

Always liked Jarvis. Good little player.

Great effort by Kane, but it took some great defending by Gibbs to keep him out. Hope Gibbs is next in line to replace Luke Shaw

by Guest Wed Sep 23, 2015 9:15 pm

I don't & anyway he'll probably go home tonight, sit on his couch & get injured for three months. This is the same guy, who basically is behind Monreal in the pecking order.
