What Rob Bishop doesn't know about Aston Villa isn't worth knowing.
Fact fans like us will probably already be in possession of the previous copy of Aston Villa: The Complete Record, which was published in 2010. Bish and his fellow statman Frank Holt have been grafting away to update the Complete Record with a new version that brings us bang up to date.
There's so much tireless work that goes into producing a tome that has season-by-season accounts of the club's illustrious history, as Bish explains.
Fans pre-ordering the book by July 1st will be able to have their names included in the book.

Josh Webb was a Next-Gen winner with Aston Villa in 2012-13 but was released by the club just three years later in July 2016. The 21 year old found himself at Kilmarnock and then back closer to home with Kidderminster Harriers and Coleshill Town.
Josh's passion is coaching, now working with the U9's group at Aston Villa, and working as a PE teacher in a secondary school near his hometown. But what actually happens when a player is released? What's the after-care like, from the club?

A scoreline which doesn't really reflect the manner of the performance today. A real poor showing from Aston Villa on the road who have now lost three games on the spin.
Up next, Tottenham Hotspur... 🙃
Danny Ings and Ollie Watkins to score 35 goals... fast-forward seven months and that certainly seems unlikely to say the least.
Dan Rolinson sat down with Ashley Preece to go over the team's pre-season predictions. 🎙🎙
Aston Villa fall to a 0-1 home defeat to Champions League hopefuls Arsenal. Just the one goal to split the two sides, but a poor showing from Villa.
Prior to their trip to the London Stadium, Villa had won three Premier League games in a row. West Ham burst Gerrard's bubble with a 2-1 defeat which also saw new signing Lucas Digne leave the pitch injured. Not a good day for Villa!
Jacob Ramsey's stunning late effort was sadly too little too late as Aston Villa's winning streak comes to an abrupt end at the London Stadium
3 wins, 3 clean sheets, 9 goals scored.
Aston Villa are flying, right now!

Another BIG deal through the door at Villa Park as Lucas Digne joins Aston Villa from Everton for a reported £25m. Ashley Preece & Pat Rowe discuss the deal and what Digne will bring to Villa.
Aston Villa exit the FA Cup at the 3rd Round stage after defeat at Old Trafford to Manchester United. Plus it wouldn't be an Aston Villa vs Manchester United fixture without a controversial decision, this time = VAR.
Just what can "football icon" Phillipe Coutinho bring to Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa side?
James Rushton caught up with Reach's football scouting expert (and thankfully Liverpool fan) Josh Williams to chat all things Coutinho.
It's silly season and a whole host of names have been linked with a move to Villa Park, we look at the Top 3 rumours in Phillipe Coutinho, Lucas Digne and Oriol Romeu.
We also reflect on Steven Gerrard's comments in the build up to Villa's trip to Manchester United in the FA Cup.
Absolutely not the start any of us wanted to 2022 as Villa take the lead in a game only to throw away all three points (again) - this time down in West London against Brentford. The very definition of "a game of two halves" and there's lots to work on for Steven Gerrard.
James Rushton & Dan Rolinson sit down to reflect on the Boxing Day defeat at Villa Park as Chelsea dish Villa a knockout blow to take all three points...

That's a really good win for Aston Villa on the road against Crystal Palace. Steven Gerrard won't be pleased with losing the clean sheet in the final minutes of the game but 6 points from an available 6 in his first two games is fantastic.

Let's start with a question: 'Where the f*g hell is Aston Villa?'
Pardon!?
It's not often a guest on our Claret & Blue podcast can get away with such a blunt enquiry about our beloved football club, but we'll make an exception for Andy Gray. That was a genuine question the former claret and blue hero asked himself when he found out he was joining Villa as a teenager way back in 1975.
To a generation or more Andy Gray is renowned for his football punditry, but before dominating the airwaves he was dominant in the air as Ron Saunders' 70s revival took flight. For all his analysis of the Premier League era, he hasn't spoken much about his playing (and coaching) career at Villa - until now.
🎙🎙🎙
A game of two halves, but Villa fail to earn themselves any points after a poor first half.
James Rushton is joined by John Townley to focus on Villa's Emi Martinez.
How did he get started? What was early life like for Martinez? How has he mastered the mental side of the game? Is he the best in the top tier? And why have Villa got Reading to thank for Martinez's success?
There's plenty of that, and more, in this episode - and the pair could've spent hours speaking about Villa's superstar goalkeeper.
