da jogodeouro： Aston Villa’s hopes of gaining automatic promotion to the English Premier League suffered a massive setback on Saturday evening after they failed to beat Hull City away from home.

da realbet： The 0-0 stalemate means Steve Bruce’s side have failed to win in their last three English Championship matches and now find themselves nine points behind second-placed Cardiff City, having played a game more, and two points behind third-placed Fulham.

Hopes had been high the Villans would have enough to see off struggling Hull, but in failing to create enough opportunities and missing the ones they did fashion, supporters were left bitterly disappointed.

Much of the criticism was aimed at Henri Lansbury, who was starting his first match since December, given a massive chance to impress in the heart of midfield.

Fans were not impressed however, with many questioning Bruce’s decision to give him a start over the likes of Conor Hourihane.
