February 02 Phase of play, Damian's backlash and Dougie's return
A third loss of the season to Brentford and two bad home defeats in January to burst the title challenge. Lots to discuss including the disallowed goal, the red card and an argument over Matt Cash and Conán's run-in with Damian Vidagany.

January 19 Distracted Emi, protracted Watkins and Hemmings jib
One of those bad days that has you questioning everything again so come join us to wallow together. Outside the obvious annoyances, we're also looking at Tielemans not running the show like he can, Villa not making Roma wait two weeks and the boy George Hemmings.

January 05 Emery's handshake, McGinn's comeback, Onana disappointment, & Amorim sacked
A joint Arsenal and Forest podcast and an explanation too. A lot of fun at Villa Park and a lot of WTF nominees at the Emirates. We talk Arsenal's emotions, Emi Martinez's state of mind, THE HANDSHAKE, and starting a new streak again thanks to Sean Dyche's Nottingham Forest. Ruben Amorim has been sacked by Manchester United so we make time for that as well.

December 28, 2025 Knuckleball MacPhee, stag do Martinez and Watkins resolution
A win that wasn't priced in. Villa go to Chelsea, a direct rival for the top five, and instead they stay in the hunt for top 1. A huge three points, another turnaround for this team full of character and this entire squad that's pulling together in the same direction.

December 22, 2025 Morgan free man-on-man, Lindelof's left foot and DOMINANT United
Gary Neville thinks Manchester United were by far the better team. Ruben Amorim thinks the better team lost. Both don't seem to tally that Morgan Rogers plays for Aston Villa. And they're both missing A LOT about their own points. We discuss a SECOND victory over Man United in Unai Emery's tenure.å

December 17, 2025 Aston Villa and the war on XG
Nine wins in a row for Aston Villa and the noise is loud.
They're talking about the title race in one room and they're scratching their heads in the numbers room, needing to believe that this won't keep going.
We talk about the West Ham game, the mistakes, the goals and, yes, the EXPECTED goals - and how Villa are actually USING the data in their favour.

December 04, 2025 Spirit of Sherwood, cooking Rogers, fearless Ollie & ego van Hecke
