QldVilla Posted July 16, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 16, 2019 I was watching some young red headed lad who was talking about Villa yesterday, and he made the comment, "if you don't know who Aston Villa are", after spitting out my weet-bix for breakfast, I'm thinking are there really that many ignorant people who can't go back further than 3 years of premier league? PS fan of the Villa View and Villa on Tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knoppy1987 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 The Villa View with Petrov was brilliant. The Houllier stuff was very odd. Enjoying this Podcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Houllier stuff surprised me, I was always under the impression that if Houllier had remained at the helm for a few seasons we would have stabilized. Just shows you never know what's going on behind the scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps teaches me to reserve a little bit of judgement in future despite being a little less critical of our managers despite at times thinking it. Great listening though I must say. I wonder who is on Stan's backroom staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted July 18, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2019 The Petrov interview with Villa View is superb. Stan was always a likeable guy but it's really great to see his insight and for him to be so straight on his time here only reveals more about how great of a character he is. If he fancied it I think he'd be a great figure to have around the club in some capacity. Obviously he backs himself to take a managerial seat, but if there's a space here with one of the youth sides as a coach for a couple of years it might be good for everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delboy54 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I am new to all this podcast stuff, but been listening to the "Villa View" with the Sir Brian Little interview. SBL comes across as a person that has genuine love for the Villa. I saw him play many times and had the pleasure of meeting him before a game a season or two ago. What a great guy and ambassador for us...... I need to explore more of these Villa podcast things.......thanks for the recommendations...

omariqy Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Under the gaslit lamp have written some fantastic articles recently with in depth analysis of potential targets etc. They also have a podcast which I think is called gathering around the lamp. Worth a listen. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me that spoke volumes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Houllier touching the Liverpool sign when walking to the pitch was it for me and him. Our bromance was over. I'm not at all surprised he pissed some players off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he did a lap of honour at the end 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Ran in touched the sign, kissed the badge, did a lap of honour, nicked a hubcap and wanked off a liver bird. Should have been sacked there and then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Just wanted to say I like The Villa View, and whoever of those blokes who said Davis was good enough for a third choice, I wanna buy you a beer. You speak so much sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
