Listened to my first few MOMS and really enjoyed them.

I've unsubscribed from 1874, not got much interest in listening to a baggies fan or whatever Evans is simper on about us. He says nothing, every answer is 50/50. Bardell has lost a good partner in Julian, they had good dynamic with Bardell more in the pundit role and Julian presenting.

Evening mail one good as well, I've always liked Kendrick. Watching that you can see he's a top bloke.

I think MOMS is a bit like marmite for a lot of people, I happen to really like it though. David Michael, Chris Budd and Dan Rogers are a good trio. They don’t take themselves too seriously and can have a laugh at Villa’s expense. 
 

The Claret n Blue podcast is okay, I too like Kendrick. But I’m not a fan of Preece, he mumbles too much and never really has much to say. It’s good to hear rollo still involved though, and James Rushton usually makes some good points.

I'm new to MOMS. Marmite is an interesting description, seemed fairly straightforward to me.

Preece bit more of a nervous character but seems alright I think. Heard him on talksport one week soon after he'd started and he was pretty nervous rushing through his piece. I like him.

A lot of people seem to think that they can be quite negative. I just think it’s more realistic and balanced than some. If they think something or someone is rubbish, they’ll say so. I’ve got no issue with that, if it’s done in the right way. 
 

That’s probably right regards Preece, he seems like a nice enough lad but he does rush through what he’s saying. Makes it harder to listen to.

This is probably why I agree with a lot of what they said :lol:

Some more 1874 podcasts but Greg is so dreary and cliched  I am finding it hard work even with the Bardell magic.

It is an absolute ordeal to get through it. Bloke has zero personality. I know Dan wants to get a job in the media and do it fulltime. This athletic hidden away podcast ain't it. It is torture.

Better off at Villa View.

Matt Kendrick interviews Alex McLeish in the latest Claret and Blue podcast, McLeish comes across well. You can see he was clearly trying to do his best but had his hands tied by Lerner. That and the fact he wasn’t that good. Seems a nice bloke though with some interesting insights to Villa back then.

I would put Mcleish in the I wouldn't mind having a drink with but not  sure of his management style along with Steve Bruce. Even Sherwood to a certain extent but he wasn't really a proper manager just a bit of a cheer leader which all fell apart in his second season.  McLeish was  just the wrong appointment at the time and it showed that Lerner had basically given up.   At least they always saw managing Villa as a honour unlike some managers such as Houllier and O'Leary who seemed liked they had never got over leaving their previous clubs.

MON was quite charismatic but it did feel like it was all him and not the club, and the way he left was a right old mess and he didn't change with the times.   Garde was a rabbit in the headlights who probably still needs counselling after his time with us. Di Matteo not long enough at Villa.  Lambert for about the first 18 months was ok but the situation ground him down to a incoherent mess.   I would say Deano is the first manager who really 'gets' Villa since John Gregory.

Started listening to the Claret & Blue podcast the last few months. Since the end of The Villa View it has shot to #1 for me. I like Dan Bardell but his podcast with Evans just isn't as good.

Agreed although they have had some good interviewees recently

Both podcasts have had some great guests and interviews over the past couple of months.

1874 had a interview with Steve Hollis who was briefly the chief exec in the dying days of Lerner. Seemed a honest person who didn't know much about football when he took the job on. Behind the the scenes it was frankly a mess.

Yes. Seemed a good man and a good listen. I still think we did the right thing that season in January and signed nobody and cleared the decks for the new owner and inevitable relegation.

Just a shame the new owner was Xia...and the decks were cleared to spend 45m on Kodj, Hogan and Ross..
