Articulate, warm, funny and the knowledge recall on all things Villa is second to none.

Up the Villa
Married to Claret and Blue is a very engaging Villa podcast, nice relaxing listen, Rupert and Verna keep up the good work, on the latest post West Ham edition Verna wasn’t loud enough, bit of a struggle to hear her.
My new favorite podcast on the Villa. Rupert’s deep knowledge of everything Aston Villa coupled with Verna’s journey of enlightenment makes for a witty, lighthearted yet informed and analytical discussion! Even my wife enjoys a listen – you must be doing something right!
This is a great listen 👏🏻👏🏻
