I can not watch the game today but will update as much as I Can from Sky.
16:51 – Thats it over, yet another later winner costs us and just how many points have we lost due to 85 plus goals …
awful, however good performance but means nowt if you lose like that
16:50 – Norwich get a late winner
16:47 – Injury time and it does seem that the power blown out of us by another late goal. Adam will do the match report as he is watching it !
Peter Dignan @peterdiggy
Poor substitution bringing al Ahmadi on he is possibly the worst midfield in the league can’t tackle doesn’t track his man #avfc
16:42 – Of course another late goal all that pressure showed
16:41 – Arsenal now all over us and missed a golden chance
16:33 – Villa dangerous on the counter attack
16:30 – Timothy Abraham @TimothyAbraham
Ashley Westwood replaced by Karim El Ahmadi. #AVFC
16:25 – Weimann scores from a counter attack but the shite goalkepper for Arsenal lets it in and good on him
Timothy Abraham @TimothyAbraham
Long clearance which Jenkinson makes a hash of and Weimann runs fromt the half way line to bury a low shot past Szczesny. 1-1.
16:15 – Arsenal have all the play now in the second half
Timothy Abraham @TimothyAbraham
Jinking run by Cazorla down the left and Guzan gets down well to save his angled shot. #AVFC
16:10 – Paul Edwards @TheRealPaulE
Thankfully Giroud is an awful striker otherwise we’d be 4 nil down #AVFC #AFC
iveMeFootball @tweetmefootball
Villa’s Andreas Weimann has an appetite for hard graft not seen since Dirk Kuyt left these shores for Turkey. #AFC 1-0 #AVFC
16:06 – Wigan score three in about 5 minutes either side of HT to secure 3 points at Reading
16:03 – KO and straight away corners and Clark misses a sitter

Agbonlahor wins an early corner for #avfc. N’Zogbia takes it. Arsenal can’t deal with it and it’s another Villa corner. Clarke heads wide.
15:45 – Wigan now 2-0 up and we are 1-0 down at HT. Not a bad half at all but Arsenal are not that good and are there for the taking if we take our chances
BBC WM Sport 95.6 @sportbbcwm
HT: #Arsenal 1-0 #avfc Villa pay for slack opening few minutes but have created chances and threaten when forward. Villa are still in this.
15:44 – Wigan 1-0 up, we need a draw there really

Arsenal came close to scoring with Giroud, Lowton making a few mistakes. Very entertaining game
15:39 – Norwich losing 1-0 to Everton
15:34 – No further real chances and other important games are currently drawing, not counting QPR who are down and losing again.
15:26 – Not out of this at all, some attacking threat
Timothy Abraham @TimothyAbraham
Decent chances for Villa as N’Zogbia and Weimann created an opening from the right. Szczesny saved well. #AVFC
15:15 – Gabby appears on form with a chance and a decent run and cross to nearly set up a goal.
Timothy Abraham @TimothyAbraham
Bit more ambition from Villa now… Although Arsenal look like they will score every time they attack. #AVFC
15:12 – Ooaah is watching this so will update with any comments from him. Says first goal was very poor defence.
15:08 – Vlaar is missing with an unidentified injury and game is wide open at the back as Carzola scores the first goal, easy.
Vlaar clearly made a big difference when he came back. I might have reservations over him BUT to see Bennett start because of an injury really worries me. IS Vlaar going to be out long, maybe the club may communicate with the fans on this, would not hold my breath !!
Cheers ian.
Wigan 2up shite.
not sure it is shite though, you can make a reasonable case for all the results there benefiting us …
Wigan have the easiest run in and the best track record of getting out of trouble. We will finish comfortably behind them. When you can’t keep clean sheets for months on end, you only have yourselves and the useless manager to blame.
Wigan know who to beat and when. They get destroyed in the first half of the season, but tend to stick with the pack and then bam, they, fully energized, will beat all teams in the bottom 10 and 1 or 2 shock results against the big teams. Sad we don’t have a manager like that.
..good performance in 1st half. Sometimes we are a little bit cautious in going forward but there were 2 or 3 good chances. Lowton was outstanding and Weimann looks dangerous from the right side. If we keep concentration there will be something in it.
I hope they continue the hard work in the 2nd half & it ends up with a positive conclusion.we get something out of this game.come on you lions.
yes, 1:1 – come on! Great goal by Weimann
well apart from the keeper throwing it in .. more proof for me though that Weimann has to start up front and not wasted on the wing.
Weimann!
Yipppeeeeee i really hope we get something out of this.come on!!
Shocker.
I enjoyed it whilst it lasted we deserve something.
Wrong subs again!!’
Fuck off lam-berk you useless, deluded twat. Can’t organise a defence to save his life. Back in the drop zone, he should be ashamed. If he had any integrity he would walk but the muppet will continue to patronise us.
Lambert’s something special alright… Special indeed.
Indeed Andrew. He is statistically our worst manager EVER. The guy is completely incapable of sorting out the defence, when was the last time we even managed a clean sheet. He is a disgrace to football management and a disgrace to this once proud club. But the ‘sheep’ within our fanbase suck up to him like he is some kind of managerial genuis, all I can say is I am glad a penny of my money is not going to the club at this time and it will not be until LAMBERK, LERNER AND FAULKNER ALL GO. They have destroyed every principle this club once stood for
Fully agree. Why anyone wanted him in the first place is beyond me.
We don´t have the power and the stamina. Its no coincidence we concede late. Against a team who played is 3rd game in a week and we were rested. Disappointed.
Yet another fucking late goal,these results could be costly come to the of the season.the performance on the whole is pleasing.we definately deserved something from this game.
Late goals are the norm now, we invite the pressure, get penned in and the inevitable happens. Its a farce that nothing has been done to address it but then again lambert’s Norwich team leaked goals for fun too. The common denominator is that lambert cannot and will not ever be able to sort the defence and for that reason, he has no future at this club
Lambert will have the words “ANOTHER LATE GOAL CONCEDED” engraved on his tombstone as a f******* epitaph.
Fully agreed sam,it’s inexcuseable in my book.
Good display today, bad result. Less said about this game the better– we deserved at least a draw, granted we kept calling for them to return and score. Before the game, nobody said that we could get anything and we havent, but there are positives that we can take forward. Lamberts tactics were good and attacking wise,we were majestic, but defensively vulnerable–we definitely missed Vlaars presence. Were going to be fine, were going to be fine, fine fine fine fine.
LOL majestic do you actually believe the garbage you write. Lambert is out of his depth, points are what matter now and we got ZERO yet again.
LAMBERK OUT!
