I’ve got no idea why anybody would tolerate listening to talksport.  It’s the radio equivalent of the Daily Star.

I like Max and Barry on a Sunday morning. And there was the clip years ago of Parry and Brazil where one of them (can't remember which) asked about the health of someone who had been dead several months. Other than that - absolute garbage.

Stadium renaming rights rumours abound.  Fortress Villa Park?

It's owned by Murdoch not Sky, it's why Colin Murray left (Hillsborough) and Collymore although the latter has been a phone guest on Hawksbee and Jacobs recently. Their show is the only one worth listening to but not when Charlie Baker is on, he's as funny as gout. Clips of the Week is always good, mainly because they employ so many people who have no broadcasting ability whatsoever there is an endless supply of fuck ups.

To be fair, the Sat afternoon around the grounds is listenable and better than 5Live who are usually at Old Trafford by default for a meaningless PL game.

Other than that it's tripe.

What's the station that used to go "DUR NUR NUR NUR DUR NUR NUR NUR... IT'S A GOAL!" and do they still do it?

Thanks. Must have been years since I listened to that. Was always a very nerve-wracking few seconds worrying if Villa had scored or conceded before finding out that Walsall had just gone behind.

I know it's unpalatable to us, but in this current straightjacket/set of "rules" I think it's inevitable that we are going to have to do it.  It's relatively easy money to bring into the club.  Worth £100million of anyone's money!

We would get nowhere near that amount as everyone would still call it "Villa Park".

Knighthead Villa Park. Sadly that's where we're at in Brum's pecking order these days.

I used to love that. Now I live in London I don’t listen to WM.

Fortress Villa Park would be an excellent name, especially for £100m season.

Agreed - chimes with how Emery was describing our home form last season.
