Only a few days remain until Aston Villa are back in action and with that in mind, Cole and Simon are joined by fellow Villa fan and UEFA B coach, Gemma Taylor-Whitehead, to discuss supporting the club from her point of view, inclusivity in football and how things are shaping up for Unai Emery's men ahead of Saturday's trip to the Hill Dickinson Stadium. You can listen for FREE on Acast, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify - dig in!
WHAT DO WE DISCUSS?
- From Gemma's perspective, what has supporting Aston Villa meant to her?
- Is it fair to say that the football club has done a good job in creating an inclusive environment?
- Is it also fair to say that there's still plenty of work to be done in football when it comes to inclusivity?
- Thoughts on the season thus far and how are we all feeling heading into Saturday's match against Everton?

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
