All Villa No Filler - An Aston Villa Podcast

Three lifelong Aston Villa fans from Birmingham take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

Villa ended their season on a high with back-to-back victories over Spurs and Champions League finalists Chelsea.

Roisin, George and Frankie celebrate a positive end to the season as Marvelous Nakamba stars against Chelsea's galaxy of attacking talents. There's plenty to look forward to next season, Carney Chukwuemeka got more minutes, and Super Jack is back - it all means Frankie found some consolation after the UK got 'nil pois' at his beloved Eurovision.

In The Perfect Ten feature, Frankie & George assess Jack Grealish's overall performance this season (spoiler alert - we might be really big fans of this guy).

Plus, Frankie tests Roisin & George's football knowledge with a Villa quiz as they go head-to-head for the prestigious Townsend Trophy (& a free Nando's).

'Rivalries' is a series where we meet fans from opposition clubs to talk over the latest Aston Villa games.

This week, ahead of Chelsea's visit to Villa Park on Sunday, Frankie met sports journalist Will Dalton. They discussed what to expect from both sides, including the threat posed by the likes of Timo Werner & Christian Pulisic. Will also explained Chelsea's surge in form since Thomas Tuchel replaced Frank Lampard as manager.

Villa cannot finish higher or lower than 11th in the league, but with fans in the stadium for the first time since early 2020, the team will no doubt want to end the season on a high.

Both clubs are also familiar with Tammy Abraham and Ross Barkley. Frankie and Will discussed their obvious talents, recent struggles and what might be in store for them this summer.

Plus, who would you pick - Mason Mount or Jack Grealish?

Three lifelong Aston Villa fans from Birmingham take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

A frustrating feature of Villa's return to the Premier League has been that the team take an early lead but often seem to throw their advantage away. That pattern repeated itself at Selhurst Park, where Crystal Palace twice fought back to beat Villa 3-2.

Roisin, George and Frankie lament Villa's frustrating loss and address what needs to be improved in the transfer window, namely buying a physically imposing, composed centre-midfielder.

In The Perfect Ten feature, Roisin & George assess John McGinn's overall performance this season (spoiler alert - they both love the guy).

Plus, George tests Roisin & Frankie's football knowledge with a Villa quiz as they go head-to-head for the prestigious Townsend Trophy (& a free Nando's).

'Rivalries' is a series where we meet fans from opposition clubs to talk over the latest Aston Villa games.

This week, ahead of Sunday's trip to Selhurst Park, Frankie met Reuters sports journalist and Crystal Palace fan Iain Axon. They discussed what to expect from both sides, including the threat posed by Wilfried Zaha and Eberechi Eze - though Frankie theorised Ollie Watkins might be the difference between the two sides.

Both clubs are also familiar with Christian Benteke, a player who was loved by Villa fans during his free-scoring time with the club. Since joining Palace, however, Benteke's goals have largely dried up in recent years. Frankie and Iain discussed his obvious talents and his surprising loss of form.

Plus, should Jack Grealish start for England at the Euros? And can England go on and win the whole tournament?

26 years of hurt against Manchester United at Villa Park continued on Sunday as Villa - somewhat predictably - took an early lead before losing 3-1 to their northern nemesis. Roisin, George and Frankie lament Villa's cursed luck against United, air frustrations at some highly contentious refereeing decisions, but find some positives including an excellent performance by Matt Targett in front of England manager Gareth Southgate.

In The Perfect Ten feature, Roisin & Frankie assess Anwar El Goalzi's overall performance this season (spoiler alert - they both love the guy).

'Rivalries' is a series where we meet fans from opposition clubs to talk over the latest Aston Villa games.

This week, ahead of Sunday's match against Manchester United, Frankie met lifelong United fan, Ian Barber. Ian was part of the protests that led to his side's game against Liverpool being postponed at the weekend. He explained what drove United fans to demonstrate en masse, his frustrations at the club's ownership, and his desire to see better fan representation in football.

Ian and Frankie also looked ahead to Sunday's game. Ian warned about the improving form of Mason Greenwood, but knows Ollie Watkins poses a threat for Villa.

Plus, should Jack Grealish start for England at the Euros? And would Ian want his club to spend big on either Super Jack or Jadon Sancho?

There's also score predictions and a look back at some classic Villa v United moments.

In the latest episode from our 'All Villans' series, Roisin and Frankie meet the co-founder and participants from the Midnight Ramadan League in Birmingham.

The Midnight Ramadan League was originally set up with help from the Aston Villa Foundation and has recently been promoted in a FIFA 21 advert by video game maker EA Sports. It was created to give Muslims somewhere to play football during the holy month of Ramadan after they had broken their fast at night, though anyone is allowed to take part in the League.

Frankie spoke with co-founder of the Midnight Ramadan League, Obayed Hussain, who explained how and why he set it up.

Roisin also travelled to one of the midnight games where she spoke to players from the League and a member of Villans Together, an official Aston Villa fans for diversity group.

Three lifelong Aston Villa fans from Birmingham take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

This week, an impressive Keinan Davis rescued Villa by scoring his first goal in forever against West Brom. Jacob Ramsey also made a big difference in the centre when he came on, leaving us to ask whether he should start in midfield ahead of Douglas Luiz or John McGinn. It was a rare off-day for Ezri Konsa, while Emi Martinez bailed out Villa with some massive saves.

In The Perfect Ten feature, Roisin & George assess Tyrone Mings' overall performance this season.

Plus, George tests Frankie & Roisin's knowledge with a Villa quiz as they go head-to-head for the prestigious Townsend Trophy (& a free Nando's).
