    THE BIG ASTON VILLA 22/23 SEASON REVIEW | Claret & Blue LIVE

    It's been an incredible season for Aston Villa, from relegation candidates under Steven Gerrard to European contenders under Unai Emery, what a journey.
    We look back on the last 9 months as Unai Emery's Aston Villa propelled themselves into the Top 7 of the Premier League.
    A big thank you to the 300+ who turned out to Hockley Social Club on June 1st, there will be two more videos on the channel from the night - our Player Awards and a Q&A.

    FAREWELL TO ASHLEY YOUNG, AN ASTON VILLA LEGEND | Claret & Blue

    Ashley Young started the last game Aston Villa played in Europe nearly 13 years ago, so itโ€™s fitting that his final contributions in claret and blue were to restore the club back where he insists it belongs.

Holte Ender ,

Effervescent enthusiasm

The hosts of this podcast has the right balance of game analysis and humorous banter that mimics what youโ€™d get with your mates at the pub after the game - if you werenโ€™t in lockdown, or an expat (like me) living in the God forsaken USA.

Lovely show

20+ 5 star reviews should convince any Villa fan to give the show a listen, but if that alone wonโ€™t do it I hope this extra encouragement will. Itโ€™s just about everything that a club specific podcast could hope for, really appreciate the hard work gents. Cheers from Texas, UTV!

Invested

These boys are invested in the villans. Fun to listen to and super responsive on Twitter and YouTube. Always laughing during the cast. Rolinson is a definite favorite.
