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?

Josh explains all.
