Hello and welcome back to 1874.

It's on for a match preview as Villa head to Brentford Saturday tea time.

Was a bogey ground roller when I was just discussing, but no longer Brentford don't seem to be a bogey team at the moment,

but we'll come on to that a little bit later on in the show.

I'm your host, Dan Bardell, and I've already spoiled for audio listeners that he's actually dan rollinson

from the pirate podcast that crosses enemy lines to join me on today's show we went right down

the little black book johnny lescott we even got down to he said no so we went now and we got

down runnington for today's

match preview show. Rollo, how are you? I'm good, yeah. I'm back for my second appearance in

as many weeks, it feels like. And I've even got a little name tag at the bottom now, so, you know,

clearly not doing too bad. Had Lee Haynes working behind the scenes rather than Adam Bates, so you've got a name tag this time. I should apologise

for those watching via video on YouTube that I have turned into the elephant man this week. I have

a pretty bad eye infection. I was tempted to wear sunglasses for this show. I'm going to be honest,

it really, really hurts, and it is causing a few problems. But Rollo is apparently quite Ophay with an eye infection himself,

so he feels sorry for me. Yeah, I don't know if anyone remembers I had on a few weeks ago,

well, a few months ago, four or a few weeks. And that wasn't very nice. But you want to keep

your arm that, mate. I don't think anyone that watches this luxury content, luxury

content watches your show. So I'm not sure that they'll

know at your eye affection, but it's good that you think that the same people watch our shows.

Do actually let us know in the chat where the people...

I think there's more than you think.
