Went from a good challenge, to winning the ball, to yellow at worst, to maybe a bit reckless. But still never a red Didnt think it was that bad to be honest though, just passionate about his team.

He might be passionate about his team, but diving in with one foot in the air and studs showing is a reckless challenge that has been quite rightly outlawed. It could have ended Ollson's career, luckily he saw it coming and jumped out the way lessening the impact. But if Ollson's foot had been planted on the floor it would have done some serious damage.

In the modern game you cant complain about it being a red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I think its interesting that opposition fans are not realising our style of play just as some of us Derby fans weren't earlier in the season. Brentford fans were/are convinced that they were on top second half and likely to score. In reality they had a couple of sniffs but that's about it. Its very reassuring to know that once we go even one ahead the opposition have a big problem. If they push on to equalise they are more likely going to concede again. If they continue as they start which is often just probing, our defence is nigh on impregnable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How nice is it to feel confident about the defence, the days where you could see a goal being conceded long before it happened and being nervy in the last minutes of a game. All good teams are built on a solid defence and that is exactly what we have now. Long may it continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did we loose?’ it nevervseems to occur tobthem that that’s the whole point, it’s a rope-a-dope. Knock it around the edge of our area as much as you want, you’re not really hurting us. Then we’ll knock you out with a quick 1-2-uppercut. We keep winning 3-0. I keep saying, that’s not a lucky snatch and grab, that’s a game plan go very much according to plan. So many teams must think ‘but it’s so unfair, we had so much possession, we were all over them, we should’ve won, they didn’t deserve that penalty at the end.’ I think it’s great if we can leave a few away fans crying.

I said the refs a joke. Or the bloke could just be a complete twonk speaking jibberish. He sounds like a bit of a "no thank you" in German to me.

ram1964 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Anyone know how the Villa took to sat results and their own performance? Had expected both of us to win but thought Villa would be disappointed not to have reduced their goal difference against us,as this could come close to the wire at the seasons end. Playing at home against Burton would have thought they would be looking at winning by a bigger margin than 1 goal, and must be seen as a disappointment by their fans. Well done to Burton for having a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to Burton for having a go. Aye they will be disappointed to not have improved their goal difference or matched our result. Suppose you have to think with teams like Burton too that they are fighting for their lives now so will try and be more solid away from home. Took us a while to break them down at ours but the important thing is they will view it as three points and keeping the pressure by staying a point behind is.

Ah remember when that was us, creaming and moaning about not having a plan B?? Possession is overrated, and is going out of fashion. Gimme some Klopp-lite gengenpressing every time!!!

From Villa Talk ''I had a look at Derby's remaining fixtures last night. I reckon they will get another 31 points. To do them, we will need 33 to avoid GD. 10 wins, 3 draws, 3 defeats or, 9 wins, 6 draws, 1 defeat. Can't see the latter so think we need to win 10 and avoid defeats against Derby, Cardiff and Fulham and that should be enough. '' ''Yep - unless we get lucky those games against Derby, Cardiff and Fulham are key. I think we'll take 4 points from those games, losing to Fulham.'' ''Brentford annoy me. They raise their game against us then when they play one of our rivals they implode like losers.'' ''Teams just seem to raise their game against us even burton didn't crumble like they did against Fulham. It's annoying but when you grind out results I feel makes you a better side. '' ''Another important win today. The teams around us will be winning most weeks, so can’t expect results to always go our way. We just need to continue taking care of our business. We’ve opened a nice gap on 7th place, but 2nd and Derby is the target. It is in our own hands, and I just hope we can continue to ride this wave for the remaining 16 games. '' Not sure they know what ''in our own hands means tbh. ''Only three teams I'm worried about Derby, Cardiff and Fulham. Both Fulham and Cardiff have tough runs. Derby have a relatively easy run in. '' ''I'm sick of these Brentford ********* absolute kryptonite to us! '' Villa fans on that thread don't seem to be getting carried away, seem quite similar to how we do, hoping they can do it but not expecting anything either, a realistic view point for both clubs to have.

TigerTedd Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 If Villa beat us, then it is all in their own hands as it stands. Same with Cardiff and us actually. We can’t all win every game that’s left, someone’s going to miss out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
