Sorry to hear that, Hilary. I am sure you enjoyed a long and happy marriage and hope this gives you many wonderful memories.

Some negative comments regarding 2nd half performance. Look — if you can’t win a game, don’t lose it. Grinding out a point is better than FA.

Same shot, two angles. If we are stopping play for VAR to decide if it’s a throw-in or not we’d never complete a match. Still angry at the anti- football injustice surrounding yesterday’s match.

Well, they’ve probably seen him play.

So apparently Arsenal go 7pts ahead of Man City. Not potentially only 4pts clear of Villa.

I guess under the radar is good, but sometimes it feels the radar is totally knackered.

UTV.

Love this film. Big fave — David Warner gives a deliciously evil performance.

Hello little Ern.

Trinity. Do this pretty much every game.

I take a flask in — no problem. It’s far better coffee than you queue up for, cheaper and you don’t miss goals.

We won, and that’s great. But how is this NOT offside. Shoulder, not elbow.

Standing with Maccabi’s football hooligans against local police – is that what patriotism looks like now? | Jonathan Liew Tommy Robinson is said to be going to Villa Park as a Maccabi Tel Aviv fan. Do the politicians jumping on this bandwagon care what they are doing, asks Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

Thanks for articulating the outrage of the Maccabi Tel Aviv debacle so well. Henry Winter, Barney Ronan — I expect better. Thank you Jonathan Liew www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Well, don’t think I’m on my own saying that I thought we’d get nothing from this match. Great belief in our collective abilities — showing there’s real substance in this team and coaching staff. UTV.

Told you.

Never met her, but I’ll miss her.

Made the last 15mins more nervy that it needed to be, but a solid professional performance. Surprised that Fleming’s Ben Thatcher impression went unpunished.

Bit concerned my puppy is starting to look like Dave Lee Travis.

We’re really not a good watch right now. Why is he surprised?

Losing a lead against 10 men wouldn’t have happened in the early Unai days. Frustrating.

Buendia is surely the most frustrating player to watch since… well, Morgan Rogers. Agghhhh.

Matty Cash at last makes a meaningful contribution to a football match by sacrificing one of his testicles.

At least we did a goal.

Postecoglou and Forest. It’s all gonna end in tears isn’t it.

Paul Merson signed for Aston Villa #OnThisDay in 1998 😍

Mmmm. I guess a half decent player in a poor team.

First name aside, this is a roll call of the underwhelming, overrated and the disappointing.

Welcome to Aston Villa, Harvey Elliot 😍

We’ve got ourselves a cracking player there. Elliott could be a real coup.
