Aston Villa 1 Liverpool 0: Villa finish 9th and Blues go down

Wow. What a day! The game wasn't all that thrilling, but Liverpool have been beaten at Villa Park for the first time in 13 years thanks to a superb strike from Stewart Downing and, with the other results today, we end up finishing in 9th place. A top half finish, on top of the Midlands once again despite our worst performance over 38 games for five years.
