    Mukiele was outstanding, but they all played well. Cracking point and more belief. Excellent.

    Don't agree with barely noticed mate. Did Villa even have a shot before the sending off! It was even as a result of the red when I think we would have won it and been the better side easily without.

    But I get what you mean in barely noticed they had an advantage cause it was pretty even!

    cheers again RTB...

    10 men, ya couldnt beat 10 men.

    Reinaldo, stupid move mate.

    Mukiele, brilliant, absolutely brilliant and my MotM.

    rest of the lads take a massive bow, anyone missing the red card would never know we were down to 10, we could have easily been 2-0 up before they scored.

    Roefs moved as the ball looked to be heading to his right so got caught out by the swerve but really should have stopped it.

    ref watch, no problem with the red card but at times he seemed a bit too petty for some tackles and let worse go, played for the cameras i feel.

    Our identity is heart and spirit. Can’t get much higher praise than that.

    Wilson Isidor… £3.5 million. What an utter bargain.

    Fantastic result, couldn’t be prouder of the lads.

    Frustrating as with 11-men we are winning that.

    I though Ballard was immense today especially fresh back from injury, normally they need a bit of time to settle, but him it was like he hadn't been away and covered the whole pitch

    It’s a shame he chose Northern Ireland as I think there would’ve been a place in the England squad for him

    Can't knock our fight and spirit. Bottle it.
    A mention for the Referee. Imo...one of the best performances I've seen.

    Just so well organised AND COMMITTED. Really, really good point in the circumstances. Probably a bit lucky that villa missed some open opportunities but we had a few possible chances.
    So proud of them.

    I second that mind about the ref, even the Lino in the first half must’ve been on villas payroll

    Mukiele absolutely ridiculous today. Colossus! Ballard also fantastic when he came on. Some result that. Arguably our most impressive so far. 10 men for an hour and coming from behind against a good side. They never fail to suprise me this lot. Something special brewing.

    Absolutely brilliant result. Great performance to a man. To come back against a team that finished 6th 1-0 down and down to 10 men was brilliant!! Don’t fear any team in the league after that performance! We ain’t going down
