I don't know how it works, but is the Pedro penalty classed as 'missed' ?

Good performance. Lots of passion & hard work today. We were the better side against a tired and depleted Villa side and I would say we deserved the win.

Teams know how to defend against us though, and Villa were mostly doing it well. We need to work out how to break down this strategy next season, or else it will be another frustrating season.

A bit of luck with the penalty, countered the bit of bad luck having Gross toenail ruling his goal offside, but we had a couple of clearcut chances that perhaps could have been finished better, but credit to the keeper too.

Delighted to win and end the streak of dismal form. Priority for the rest of the season should probably still be finishing as high as possible, rather than blooding youngsters.
Kneecap this time!

Lovely. All's right with the world. A win is always good. A long awaited win even better. A long awaited win against that shower of shithousery is golden.

7 points clear of the Nigels, who need a near perfect return to overhaul us now.

Also great to see the players properly scrapping. I had feared that a clean sweep of defeats to the end of the season might be enough to see RDZ out the door but that little victory should put a tiger in the team's tank.

Happiness abounds.

Golden showers?

We had 15 shots with 8 on target. We had a goal disallowed and the keeper made a couple of top saves. Our xG was 2.47. I would say we ripped them a new one rather than them defending well.
