Red, White, Claret & Blue

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... just a few weeks after resounding victories against Arsenal and Bournemouth, Aston Villa find themselves booted from Europe and nervously looking over their shoulder at an equally inept Tottenham side.

Today we go over how we feel about the European Run and what Villa needs to do to get over the line in a Champions League place. Cold Water and a demand moreso to just be n...

Oof, not only did Aston Villa lose to Brighton, but the very promising Morgan "Kenny" Rogers was also lost to a hamstring injury. Think it's safe to say Unai got it wrong today, but what does that mean for trying to turn things around at Olympiakos later this week? We're here to explain!

What a huge week for Aston Villa and the Villaratti everywhere! In this episode we look back at an emotional and nervy 120 minutes + penalties against Lille, analyzing what went wrong for large portions of both legs as well as what we have to look forward to in the Conference League Semis, before turning our attention to the trap-game-that-wasn't against Bournemouth. Apologies are demanded, and we'll be back with Cold Water...

Villa had arguably their biggest result of the season, with a well-earned 2-0 victory over Arsenal. We'll explain the origin of "lemon booty" and why it perfectly encapsulates this Arsenal squad, all the good points that went right for Villa, and what we expect to carry into our 2nd leg UECL match vs. Lille. As always, we're demanding apologies and throwing some cold water on questionable breakfast habits.

AVFC were able to prevail over a very talented and, frankly, unlucky LOSC Lille side in the UEFA Conference League. With other EPL sides falling around them and every game now becoming must-win in our Champions League quest, we'll look into what this means for how Villa will approach their upcoming fixtures at Arsenal and in France as they try to build some final momentum for the stretch run on two fronts.

This past Sunday Aston Villa stumbled yet again at home in what is becoming a dangerous trend in 2024, drawing Brentford after being ahead 2-0. We'll discuss what went wrong in those horrible 9 minutes, but, as we always do, will still provide some points of optimism in Cold Water. And to close it out, we'll demand yet another apology - we're still waiting for someone to come on the show in response!

Well that was... weird... From the release of the lineup, to Emi's subsequent absence, you knew this was going to be a weird match. Ultimately, no harm done in a match that Villa was never expected to get much from anyway. We'll analyze all the action, more importantly from the lens of what it means for the coming matches, and then we'll preview a must-win match vs. Brentford. We bet you'll love it!

We break down the excellent play across the pitch before addressing one cold water on the future of Nicolo "Zany" Zaniolo and then demand an apology from Gary O'Neil for his postmatch comments - Chris has to turn into an actual wizard to grant his ridiculous wishes.
