Episode 7 - He Only Had One Foot (with Tom Craine)
Listen now
Description
Hakuna Matata. It means no worries. Why the random Lion King reference? Well, it'll make sense once you listen to this episode in which Sachin speaks to comedian and writer Tom Craine about his love for Aston Villa. Tom's story is a fascinating one; the boy from Bath who became obsessed with Villa during that most glorious of decades - the 1990s, and followed them with a passion until, well, that passion burned out. There were various reasons for that and ultimately it's left Tom as a football fan with no club to be a fan of.  He speaks with great openness about that as well as reflecting on his days following Villa - from the joy of Dwight Yorke to the despair of Savo Milosevic, the latter reaching such a level that Tom and his mates got in trouble at school for celebrating at the oddly precise moment the Serbian left the club. Tom also goes through his all-time 90s Villa XI and, keeping the music theme going, speaks about his favourite Radiohead album. It's quite the episode! So download, listen and love. And after you have, please Rate and Review. It would mean a lot. Cheers!
