The stakes are clear. Two games to go. Villa hold their destiny in their hands, but it starts with finishing the job against Tottenham - a team they owe after recent hidings.

In this Something for the Weekend episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David and Chris discuss the setup for a potentially weakened Spurs side, what Emery’s line-up might look like without Tielemans and Rashford, and the broader context of what’s becoming a high-stakes Champions League shootout.

Aston Villa’s narrow win over Bournemouth may not have been a classic, but it could prove crucial in the race for Champions League qualification. In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David, Chris and Phil reflect on a hard-fought three points and unpack what it all means for Villa’s top-four hopes — with just two games to go.

It’s crunch time for Villa. Ahead of a potentially defining clash against Bournemouth, My Old Man Said's David and Chris break down why this is a must-win game to keep Champions League hopes alive - and why anything less than three points would make the remaining fixtures irrelevant.

In this week’s Something for the Weekend, the MOMS duo also dive into:

• The controversy surrounding the away ticket ballot leak, and how the club’s communication breakdown is fuelling misinformation.
• In defence of John Duran, and why his pivotal Bayern winner, Leipzig thunderbolt and Everton screamer being snubbed for Goal of the Season is a joke.
• The revised North Stand stadium plans, their hidden compromises, and what it means for capacity, legroom, concourses - and the soul of Villa Park.

Plus, how fixture changes are screwing over match-going fans again, and what needs to change at Premier League level to stop fans being treated like a postscript.

Aston Villa got the job done against Fulham, but not without reigniting some familiar frustrations - missed chances, wasteful set pieces, and Ollie Watkins finding himself top of a list no striker wants to lead.

In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David, Phil and Armen break down the Fulham win, the implications of Villa’s final three matches, and what’s at stake. From tactical gripes to ticket pricing creep, it’s a wide-ranging episode with a Champions League-shaped cloud hanging over everything.

Aston Villa’s season comes down to this. After a nightmare week that saw them crash out of the FA Cup and fall further behind in the race for the Champions League, Unai Emery’s men return to Villa Park knowing that anything but a win over Fulham could end it all.

In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David and Chris assess what went wrong at Wembley, what needs to change immediately, and how Villa can salvage their Champions League dream - starting with a must-win game against Fulham.

After one of the most deflating days in recent Villa memory at Wembley, Aston Villa have no time to sulk. With four Premier League games remaining, Unai Emery’s side must now win them all — starting with Fulham — if they want to avoid seeing their Champions League ambitions collapse.

In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David and Chris dig deep into the wreckage of the Palace FA Cup semi-final disaster, question the tactical and emotional letdown from all areas of the club, and take confidence from the Arsenal vs PSG Champions League semi-final.
