My Old Man Said - An Aston Villa Podcast

Aston Villa's recent record against Wolves at Villa Park in the Premier League is terrible. With the race for fourth hotting up though, Unai Emery's men can ill-afford to slip into bad habits. Even without John McGinn, they must win.

Surely it's time for Aston Villa to win the FA Cup? It's something Villa fans have often mused in recent times, since the last time was 1957 and it's the only trophy that fans of a certain age haven't witnessed Villa winning.

In the context of this season and what kind of role new loan signing Philippe Coutinho could play, a victory at Old Trafford to match the one in the league, earlier in the season, would certainly recalibrate Villa's season and expectations.

Can Steven Gerrard bring Villa some extra edge against his old foe from his Liverpool days?

We look ahead to the game in the latest Something for the Weekend episode.

Since episode 106 of the My Old Man Said podcast, MOMS attended a Football Supporters' Association meeting with Premier League Executive Director Bill Bush and got some valuable insights into the road ahead for football fans returning to stadiums.

As well as Stage 5 of Project Restart (the return of supporters to games), we share the considerations of the Premier League starting the season up again, questions of how TV broadcasters will show games, supporter refund issues, what happens if a second wave of the virus comes along and much more.

Frustration builds for a competitive Aston Villa side that should have picked up more wins than just one from their six league games so far. Managing to lose against Arsenal, after being 1-0 up and a man up at half-time, is their most worrisome effort yet.

David, Dan and Chris look back at events at the Emirates Stadium and try to process what had begun as Villa's most impressive performance this season to the team's most spectacular collapse.

We look at the questions of in-game management and why it went wrong for Villa, plus look at the impact (or lack of) of certain Villa players. We also grade Jack Grealish's season so far.

Beyond the Villa-verse we travel to India...from Oxford, to take a look at the curious case of Kashif Siddiqi and his move to Real Kashmir, we also discuss the Blues fine from the Jack Grealish incident of last season, before flagging up the rise of a young Norwegian giant taking the Champions League by storm. Oh, and there's another update from our Iranian news desk.

Enjoy!

The play-off final is lost and Aston Villa FC go into financial meltdown. What happened to the big promises to Villa supporters of Dr Tony Xia? The Chinese chairman sacks the CEO Keith Wyness and tries to organise a rudderless club for a third season in the Championship via conference calls from Bejjing. My Old Man Said's David and Dan pick through the bones of Villa's fiscal woe and farce, while trying to have some laughs along the way in the face of adversity.

There's 'Twitter With Tony' where Villa's 'Yorkshire Tony' reads through his most recent tweets - from Wembley hope to financial despair. While the show's favourite negative robot Negatron declares some affirmative action now that the situation has reached 'Defcon One'.

Show Highlights:

• Wembley Fallout
• Xia vs Wyness
• Cumulative affect of player wages and stockpiling.
• Early 2018 sh*t hits the fan
• Improved Football Infrastructure Disfunction?
• Bruce tactical shortcomings
• Financial Quandary
• Horror Show
• World Cup Influence on Best Solution
• Bruce Babes False Hope
• Company House Movements
• Jury's Out on Xia
• Wizard of Xia promises
• Crown Jewels
• Buy outs

Stay listening to the end for two post credit excerpts that would have been in the original episode 46 that was originally going to be released prior to the Wembley play-off final.
