Within thirty seconds of talking about the match CallmeFranksy was onto "but why didn't Lambert pick Hutton last season?" First Villa caller was met with "Yes but what if Vlaar goes?" My good lady wife chipped in "He sounds disappointed."Glad I missed it then. I generally listen to the WM phone in, but as TMS was on until 6.30 I listened to that. No doubt I'll be posting about their anti-Villa bias within a fortnight. They really are the BBC version of Talkshite.

I wonder if there is another BBC region where their local radio station is so disparaging, malevolent and unsupporting of the largest local football team?
Villa winning and their beloved Dingles losing made it a awful day for them. Listening to the after match reports i actually had to look to make sure the Dingles had lost ,as it sounded like they had won

Tom Ross is a nose but treats all the local teams equally.
Whatever Tom Ross might be, he puts his cards on the table and you can judge him for what you know he is. Personally I think he does his job as objectively as he can.
I disagree on Tom Ross. He seems like a decent sort to me.
