Aston Villa ride derby win into clash with battered Liverpool

September 24, 2015 14:30 - 38 minutes - 34.4 MB

Well, we didn't win both of the derbies, but we won the one that mattered. Aston Villa had another lacklustre week, losing 0-1 to West Bromwich Albion and eeking out a 1-0 win over Birmingham City in the Second City Derby. Nevertheless, a win is a win and hopefully getting one in front of a raucous Villa Park crowd will spur on this club to play the way we know it can.Jack and Robert take on the two matches from the past week before turning to your questions on twitter, many of which have to ...

Villa set to renew Second City derby, but have West Brom to get past first

September 17, 2015 16:00 - 48 minutes - 43.8 MB

It's derby week! What's that? No, hush. We don't want to talk about the Leicester match. Why would you want to talk about that? Are you a Leicester fan? Go away. Okay fine, we'll talk about that match, but we don't want to. But THEN! Then we get to talk about derby week! West Brom on Saturday and then [name redacted because of site policies that don't allow mentioning filth] on Tuesday! We take a look at what could be the week that makes or breaks Tim Sherwood and his new Aston Villa experime...

Aston Villa return from break to renew fierce rivalry with Leicester City

September 10, 2015 15:00 - 34 minutes - 31.1 MB

Well, we're back. And aside from Idrissa Gana picking up a hamstring problem while playing for Senegal, the international break did not go too badly for Aston Villa. And now we get back to football that actually matters as Villa make the trip up the road to face Leicester City on Sunday. Last year this match got testy all three times it was contested, so hopefully we'll see some fireworks again.And for our Holtecast this week we will, of course, dive into the matchup. What can Villa expect fr...

How successful were Aston Villa in the summer transfer window?

September 03, 2015 14:00 - 54 minutes - 48.8 MB

We could have taken the week off. We could have taken a cue from the rest of the footballing world and enjoyed a little bit of time on the couch. Or done like Saido Berahino and made use of the 7500 to Holte private jet. We could have followed the Brad Guzan route and gone for a walk in exotic Washington, DC.But no, we came back for you. And besides, I can take that walk in DC after we record.We're here to help get you through the international break! And what better way to do that than by ca...

The grace period is over, Aston Villa need to beat Sunderland

August 27, 2015 20:00 - 48 minutes - 43.4 MB

Let's ignore Crystal Palace, eh? And how about we ignore the first 90 minutes of Tuesday's Capital One Cup match. Will anyone be upset if we do that? No? Great.With that in place: VILLA ARE UNSTOPPABLE. Two goals in just 30 minutes and none allowed? Watch out Sunderland, we're coming for you And the 0-4 drubbing we put on in March is going to feel like Child's play. By my calculations of what happened against Notts County, Villa are on pace to... wait, we don't make predictions here.Instead, ...

A solid Manchester United outing should vault Villa into Crystal Palace match

August 20, 2015 20:30 - 42 minutes - 37.9 MB

So it wasn't a win against Manchester United. Heck, Aston Villa couldn't even get the draw. But nevertheless, it's hard to feel too down-trodden after a solid performance on a Friday night against a club who will probably finish in the top 3 and have a shot at winning the whole league.We're back with another Hotlecast to dissect the match a bit. Who played well? What can be improved? How angry are we about the penalty that Micah Richards should have gotten but didn't?And then we dive into eve...

Aston Villa ride winning streak into Friday night match with Manchester United

August 13, 2015 20:30 - 37 minutes - 33.2 MB

UNBEATEN HOLTECAST AHOY!And Jack returns from the wilds of the North American west to help anchor this week's episode. We obviously spend a fair amount of time rolling around in the glory of an opening day win at Bournemouth, but that's not all we have in store. Jack tells us a bit about the North American Villans meet-up in San Diego, too!We've also got a look at all of the transfer news surrounding the club this week. Adama Traore looks to be on his way! Maybe! For an unspecified sum of mon...

Football is back! Bournemouth-Aston Villa preview

August 06, 2015 19:00 - 21 minutes - 19.2 MB

It's almost here! In just twenty-four hours we'll have the return of Premier League football to enjoy. Aston Villa are set to kick off the season with a trip to newly-promoted (and Premier League debutant) AFC Bournemouth. FOOTBALL!We had a few scheduling issues this week, but we desperately wanted to get you one last Holtecast before the season began. So while Jack was out in the wilderness of Western North America, we had James come in and make his debut. Together we kept things short. Focu...

With Benteke at Liverpool, what's next for Aston Villa?

July 27, 2015 16:00 - 40 minutes - 36.6 MB

Oh god, the season is just around the corner. Why is this summer so short? Jack wanted to podcast this week and I thought "eh, it's summer, we don't have to do every week" and then I remembered that "nah, it's not really summer any more because the season is basically here."So we're back! Two weeks in a row! And while last week saw us talking about the departure of Fabian Delph, this week sees us talking about Christian Benteke. With the big man off to Liverpool, Aston Villa are already looki...

Gueye, Richards, Amavi, Delph, Benteke... it's time for a podcast

July 20, 2015 15:00 - 43 minutes - 39.2 MB

We haven't done this podcast thing in about a month. To put things into perspective, when we last brought you a show Aston Villa were about to be taken over, Tim Sherwood still hadn't made any transfer moves, and (perhaps most tellingly)Fabian Delph was still a Villan. It's been a long summer already, and even if most of it has been good.So yeah, it's time for another episode. We're back to talk (takes giant breath): Christian Benteke, Fabian Delph, Jordan Amavi, Idrissa Gueye, Micah Richards...

Aston Villa summer prospectus and season in review

June 15, 2015 16:30 - 41 minutes - 37 MB

Well, we have to do this. At least we think we do. If we don't have to, our apologies for the unnecessary flashbacks. But it's time for THE ASTON VILLA SEASON IN REVIEW HOLTECAST EXTRAVAGANZA!Come listen as we figure out how many ways we can say that this team was abjectly miserable. We've figured out thirty-six thus far, but we didn't use them all on the show. But that's not all we have in the episode, we promise. We've also got a look at what the summer holds, talk about the (possibly [mayb...

FA Cup final preview podcast: Can Villa beat Arsenal at Wembley?

May 28, 2015 15:00 - 59 minutes - 53.5 MB

We're back, and we've got an entire hour devoted to talking about the Burnley match. N'Zogbia sure was a weird left back choice, right? And how about that time when... uh... actually I don't even really remember the Burnley match. And we're barely touching on it this week.Why?Well because the is FA Cup final week. We're here to take a look at everything surrounding Saturday's trip to Wembley. What do Villa have to do to beat Arsenal? Can we finally score a goal on the Gunners this year? Will ...

With traumatic loss, Aston Villa assure Premier League safety

May 21, 2015 16:00 - 43 minutes - 39.2 MB

After a one-week hiatus that likely had you holding your breath in antici......pation, the Holtecast returns! We've got a lot to talk about, too. There's the slaughter at St. Mary's last weekend. The following demolition of Hull by an aimless Tottenham Hotspur. And, oh yeah, safety! After weeks of worrying, Aston Villa are, finally, officially safe.So we've got all of that, plus we dig into your questions on twitter. Mainly: what will be the fate of Christian Benteke? It seems as if everyone ...

Win over Everton sees Aston Villa edge closer to safety

May 07, 2015 18:00 - 46 minutes - 41.6 MB

So close and yet so far. After a dominating 3-2 win over Everton at Villa Park last weekend Aston Villa sit on 35 points. A month ago we probably would have told you that 35 was enough to guarantee safety, but surges from teams like Leicester and Sunderland mean that we're not quite over the hump yet. Today we tackle that win and the concurrent results over the weekend. To top it off, we analyze what it will take to actually ensure Premier League survival. The good news: it's not much more! W...

Despite Aston Villa's best against Manchester City, relegation race tightens

April 30, 2015 16:00 - 51 minutes - 46.5 MB

Huh. Two consecutive weeks and Aston Villa have played their best football of the season, and yet they've only gotten one win. Defensive miscues doomed the club on their visit to the reigning champions Manchester City, but the big issue is the relegation picture. A normal club would get to feel good about such a strong performance, but Villa have to immediately start looking below and above them. So this week we take on that City match: what went right? What went wrong? And then we turn to th...

Dissecting Villa's FA Cup win over Liverpool and looking ahead to Manchester Cit

April 23, 2015 16:00 - 59 minutes - 53.4 MB

Welcome back to the Holtecast: the official podcast of a website that blogs about a team who are now FA Cup finalists! It's practically like having Christian Benteke whispering in your ears if Christian Benteke were white and American. But Jack and Robert are here to talk extensively about the incredible semifinal win over Liverpool. We also delve into the fact that Tim Sherwood now has the best winning percentage of any Aston Villa manager ever. And of course, we have injury news. We say of ...

Villa only get brief moment to bask in Spurs win before Liverpool at Wembley

April 16, 2015 15:30 - 53 minutes - 48 MB

Well this is unexpected. We're back for another week of podcasting and Aston Villa... won? They traveled to White Hart Lane and pulled off an unexpected victory. The Great Tim Sherwood Narrative™ was fulfilled and Villa managed to salvage a week that began with a disappointing result against QPR. And oh the things it did for their league standing.Now, although relegation safety isn't assured, it seems more likely than ever that Villa will be a part of the Premier League next year. And that me...

Can Villa right the ship after Manchester United loss and QPR draw?

April 09, 2015 16:00 - 38 minutes - 34.6 MB

Jack and Robert are back, one week older and one point to the better. But we all know it should have been three points.On this week's Holtecast, we break down Aston Villa's performances against Manchester United over the weekend and Queens Park Rangers on Saturday. One was expected, the other wasn't good enough. There are sure to be calls for heads to roll and things that we'll regret saying later, but what is a podcast for if not snap judgments?Then we turn our focus to the future. Can Villa...

Villa visit Manchester United with eight matches to secure safety

April 02, 2015 18:00 - 39 minutes - 34.9 MB

Jack and Robert return after taking their very own international break. And what a week to come back to. All was mostly quiet on the Aston Villa front, but in the next few days the club have three hugely important Premier League matches coming up.And the first is this Saturday's trip to Old Trafford to face Manchester United. We dig into that match with a bit of a preview and also glimpse ahead at the QPR match on Tuesday.We've also got injury news, Darren Bent rumours, your questions, and mo...

We're going streaking! Aston Villa try for fourth straight win against Swansea

March 19, 2015 18:00 - 55 minutes - 50.2 MB

Jack and Robert are back and we swear that we won't make any predictions. Three matches without a prediction, and three wins for Aston Villa. The latest was last weekend's 0-4 drubbing of Sunderland at the Stadium of Light that led to Gus Poyet getting fired. Nice to be on the other side of that for once.We'll take a look at the relegation race as it stands after the weekend. With their win, Villa look much better, but Burnleytook a surprising 1-0 against Manchester City and made safety a bit...

Aston Villa: Two wins and a road to Sunderland

March 12, 2015 17:00 - 53 minutes - 48 MB

We're BACK with another scintillating Holtecast. Coming fresh off of two wins over West Bromwich Albion, Aston Villa will be looking to put even more distance between themselves and the relegation fight this weekend. The trip to Sunderland comes as seemingly the entire defense is injured or dying, but improved performances in the past few matches are giving us a little bit of hope. Before we get to that, though, Jack and I look back at Saturday's glorious, amazing, wonderful, FA Cup quarter-f...

Aston Villa back to winning ways, look to do the double on the Baggies

March 05, 2015 17:00 - 41 minutes - 37.3 MB

So here's a novel idea: we're podcasting after an Aston Villa win. Yes, that's right. And what's more, it's a win in the Premier League. We haven't gotten to do a podcast like that in nearly three months, so you can imagine how excited we are.We begin, of course, by recounting the thrilling win over West Bromwich Albion on Tuesday. There is no shortage of gloating over the win, and especially the gut-punching manner in which it happened. After that we take on all sorts of Aston Villa news: th...

Sherwood takes charge as Villa move one step closer to Wembley

February 19, 2015 16:30 - 40 minutes - 91.2 MB

Jack and Robert return for another Holtecast. And we've got our third manager in three episode. First Paul Lambert, then the double-headed beast that was Scott/Andy Marshall, and finally we're onto Tim Sherwood. We take a look at whether or not Tactics Tim is a good fit at Villa Park.And over the weekend something strange happened: Villa scored two goals and beat a Premier League opponent. Now, it wasn't in the league, but still. That's a win! And it sends the club to the quarterfinals of the...

Villa lose, but Paul Lambert is gone: assessing the damage from the past week

February 12, 2015 23:00 - 47 minutes - 106 MB

We were going to record at our normal Wednesday morning time this week, but Robert had a scheduling conflict and thank heavens for that. We would have spent half an hour speculating about the news that we can now spend half an hour actually talking about!After losses to Chelsea and Hull City since last we had an episode, Aston Villa have finally put Paul Lambert out of his misery and sacked him. We take a look at the leading candidates to replace him and what they might do once they get here....

With Chelsea looming can Villa recover from an Arsenal beatdown?

February 04, 2015 19:00 - 48 minutes - 108 MB

Jack and Robert are here to talk about Aston Villa, even if thinking about this club is seemingly more than they deserve right now. Remember the win over AFC Bournemouth in the FA Cup? Well, a 5-0 demolition by Arsenal in London has put an end to the good feelings we had for a hot minute. It was fun while it lasted.And then the club didn't have anything to offer us on transfer deadline day. But since we've last recorded, Villa did add Scott Sinclair from Manchester City. We'll cover the Janua...

Can Aston Villa nab a win over Arsenal at the transfer deadline?

January 28, 2015 19:00 - 50 minutes - 114 MB

Jack and Robert are back after an Aston Villa w... wi... win? Is that how you spell it? It's their second in the month of January, but this weekend sees the club try to get back on track in the Premier League, where they haven't won since December 7. Unfortunately, the challenge will be stiff, as Villa travel to the Emirates to take on Arsenal, who currently sit in fifth.We'll have a recap of the FA Cup victory (with 2 [two!] goals!), and a look at what Villa might do as the transfer windowcl...

After such a bad start, can Aston Villa finish January strongly?

January 21, 2015 17:00 - 41 minutes - 92 MB

Jack makes his triumphant return this week and it's just in time, as we've got a lot to talk about. We'll be giving a look at last weekend's Liverpool match and determining if there was anything about which we could get excited. And we'll wrap up by taking a look at this weekend's FA Cup clash against Bournemouth and determining if there will be anything abut which we can get excited.And in between? Well, nothing but a little transfer news, some slaking of Gabby Agbonlahor, Carles Gil, and th...

Can Carles Gil help Aston Villa beat Liverpool?

January 14, 2015 18:00 - 1 hour - 154 MB

Jack and Robert are back this week! Wait, no. Jack is busy doing important things, so Robert is back this week! But to prevent you from having to hear me drone on by myself for a while, we've brought in our very own Adam Clark to make his first Holtecast appearance. And what a time to join!We've got a recap of the dreadful Leicester City match, a look at Aston Villa's limited action in the transfer window, some talk of new boy Carles Gil, the big protest planned [takes a huge breath] AND of c...

Will the January transfer window give us a new Aston Villa for a new year?

January 07, 2015 17:00 - 57 minutes - 129 MB

Jack and Robert are back with the first Holtecast in 2015! Since we last talked, Villa have scored two goals in five matches and still have a record of 1-3-1 in that span. So how does that work? We'll be diving a bit into the holiday results to see if we can figure anything out about this crazy mess of a team right now. And then of course, there's the big story looming over everyone's heads right now: the January transfer window! Will Fabian Delph leave? What about Ron Vlaar? Will Paul Lamber...

After years of futility, how can Villa finally beat Manchester United?

December 17, 2014 16:00 - 44 minutes - 99 MB

Aston Villa lost to the Baggies last weekend. And this weekend they've got the resurgent Manchester United, who they'll have to face without Ashley Westwood, Tom Cleverley, Kieran Richardson (yay) and heavens knows probably someone else. So, yeah, we'll talk about that.But let's look at some other stuff too. Namely, it's only two weeks until the January transfer window opens. With injuries seemingly never going away, what can Aston Villa do to make themselves better on what will likely be a l...

Aston Villa: Burning a path of glory through the midlands

December 10, 2014 18:00 - 34 minutes - 76.7 MB

We've got two things on our plates today, and both involve midlands rivals. We start by talking about last weekend's win over Leicester City. What about that tackle on Westwood? Wasn't it great that Ciaran Clark is amazing? Alan Hutton too? And are Leicester our new least favorite team?Of course they aren't, because then we turn our attention to West Bromwich Albion, or as I prefer to think of them: Wet Sandwich Albatross. We preview this weekend's derby match where it will be decided, once a...

Finding Aston Villa's identity after big Crystal Palace win

December 03, 2014 18:00 - 54 minutes - 123 MB

Alright, let's get the big issue out of the way first:VILLA WON! VILLA WON! VILLA WON!For the first time since our September 18 episode, we're doing a post-win podcast. Isn't it glorious?But to make things even better, we're joined this week by Sam Tighe, lead football writer for Bleacher Report UK. If you don't know Sam, get familiar with him. He's quickly become one of the brightest football writers around, and he writes frequently on Villa. For instance, here's his match report from Tuesda...

How a battered Aston Villa can crack Southampton's defense

November 19, 2014 18:00 - 39 minutes - 89 MB

The Holtecast, like football after the international break, is back! And, like football after the international break, we're battered. Battered down by watching Villa play seven matches since September 13 and not grab a win in any of them. But that doesn't mean that we've given up hope entirely! No thanks to circumstances, of course.This week we dive into everything that has happened since our last episode. And given that it was a break, there's a surprising amount to cover. Ron Vlaar got inj...

How to fix Aston Villa over the international break in one step

November 12, 2014 18:00 - 38 minutes - 85.5 MB

Jack and I have taken two weeks off of podcasting since Villa won at Anfield, and this is still our sixth episode since Villa have last gotten three points. Goodness. But like it or not, at least the draw at West Ham staunched the bleeding a little bit this weekend. Thanks to a heroic effort from Brad Guzan and an anti-hero-like effort from West Ham's strikers, Villa managed to come away from the match with a point.But they didn't score, and they never really looked as if they might. It's bee...

Aston Villa have six straight losses, and everything is miserable

November 05, 2014 18:30 - 39 minutes - 88.7 MB

You may have noticed that we did not have a podcast last week. This was a deliberate move, as Jack and I decided that 30 minutes of cursing was probably not something that we wanted to broadcast to the world, and that's all you would have gotten after Aston Villa's absolutely pitiful 2-0 loss to QPR.But cursing or no, we can't take a two-week hiatus. So we're back, and Villa have now lost six straight matches, and only scored once since September 13. Things are as dire as they can be after th...

Aston Villa defeated 3-0 by Everton; does QPR offer hope?

October 22, 2014 18:00 - 36 minutes - 32.4 MB

Alright, losing 3-0 to Arsenal is fine. Doing the same to Chelsea? Acceptable. A 2-0 loss that was competitive for 82 minutes to Manchester City was even, dare we say it, encouraging. But 3-0 to Everton? A team that had allowed more goals than any other in the Premier League? Well, that's just infuriating.And it doesn't help that Aston Villa played terribly to boot.Jack and Robert are back to dissect yet another loss. Four in a row in a stretch that we knew was capable of producing exactly th...

Aston Villa prepare for Everton after the international break

October 15, 2014 16:00 - 35 minutes - 31.4 MB

Jack and Robert are back, and so, too, are Aston Villa. After an international break that saw plenty of players out on duty (and one injured) the club are ready to take on Everton at Goodison Park this weekend.And after three straight goalless losses, it sure would be nice to see Villa get SOMETHING from this matchup. The good news, of course, is that Christian Benteke is back, and he should help add some potency to what has been an absolutely anemic attack. So we've got coverage of all this ...

Aston Villa drop 0-2 to Manchester City before the international break

October 08, 2014 19:30 - 31 minutes - 27.9 MB

Jack and Robert return for another week of thrilling Aston Villa news, commentary, and discussion. Heading into the international break (in which Fabian Delph and Brad Guzan will be featuring!) Villa are coming off of three consecutive losses. 0-3 to Arsenal, 3-0 to Chelsea, and 0-2 to Manchester City. And the weird thing? That's not really such a terrible record in that stretch. We talk a bit about the latest loss, in which Villa saw a great chance at upset go begging and take in the state o...

Holtecast: After 3-0 defeats to Arsenal and Chelsea, Aston Villa are still okay

October 01, 2014 18:00 - 40 minutes - 36.6 MB

We took last week off, and Aston Villa gave us another 3-0 loss. That's two in a row, but to Arsenal and Chelsea. Not bad teams to find yourself losing to. But even with those losses, this is a club that's in a vastly better position than they have been in for years. 10 points through 6 matches is better than most of us would have hoped for, and it's good enough to have Villa sitting sixth in the League. Jack and Robert return this week to talk about those matches, but also to focus on some o...

Basking in another result at Anfield

September 18, 2014 14:00 - 47 minutes - 42.4 MB

We've got plenty of discussion of the win at Anfield because how could we do otherwise? We also talk a lot about Villa's back line, the area of the team that have been absolutely key in this blistering start to the season.And of course we preview the visit from Arsenal this weekend. Can Villa keep the momentum going against a tired and injured team? We certainly hope so!You'll also find out that we record the day before we release these, so you'll hear a mention or two of wanting Paul Lambert...

Fabian Delph's England debut and Aston Villa's trip to Anfield to face Liverpool

September 11, 2014 08:00 - 1 hour - 59.6 MB

Jack and Robert are back despite the lack of a match. You can't keep us down, international break! Besides, we've got to talk about Jores Okore and Fabian Delph, who are both making strides for Denmark and England, respectively.Then we're joined by Liverpool fan (but closeted Villa aficionado) Jacob from Across the Pond Radio to talk about Villa's upcoming match at Anfield. We also dive into the stretch of incredibly tough matches that Aston Villa have coming up. Will two wins be enough for V...

Grading Aston Villa's summer moves and surprising season thus far

September 04, 2014 12:00 - 50 minutes - 45.2 MB

Aston Villa had a very quiet transfer deadline day until they didn't. Suddenly, after everything had closed, Villa fans who were disappointed found themselves cheering for former Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley. And Jack and Robert take a look at Aston Villa's surprisingly eventful summer in this week's Holtecast. We've got snap-judgment grades for all of the incoming moves and a look at whether or not the window was a successful one. In addition, we recap the Hull match that saw V...

Holtecast - We're back with four points!

August 27, 2014 14:30 - 48 minutes - 53.1 MB

Aston Villa have gotten out to what is, by any means, a fantastic start. The 2014-15 season began with the win at Stoke and was followed by a draw at home toNewcastle United. Both results were the type Villa should expect, but didn't get last season. And Jack and Robert are back to talk about it. We've got discussion of the matches played, a look at the summer transfers, and previews of this week's two matches. Join us live, in the Google Hangout below, where you can follow along, and feel fr...

World Cup Wrap-up: 12 July, #BRA vs. #NED for third

July 12, 2014 12:30 - 56 minutes - 12.8 MB

On today's show we previewed the third place playoff match of Brazil vs. Netherlands and talked about why the game itself is stupid but awesome and fun.

See acast.com/privacy for more information.

World Cup Wrap-up: 11 July, Suarez deal done, only two games left

July 11, 2014 12:30 - 48 minutes - 10.8 MB

There are no matches today in Brazil, nor were there any yesterday, so we didn't have any recaps or previews. We did have a lot of transfer news on Luis Suarez and Alexis Sanchez in particular. Jay Douglas (@JDoug10 on Twitter) joined us to talk about those stories as well as a bit about Liverpool. Brazil take on Netherlands tomorrow and Germany play Argentina on Sunday in the final. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

World Cup Wrap-up: 10 July, Argentina into final

July 10, 2014 12:30 - 50 minutes - 11.4 MB
