Biography
Player #884 for Aston Villa, Joleon Patrick Lescott played as a centre back for the club in 2015-16 making 31 appearances and scoring once.
Lescott was born in Birmingham on 16 August 1982.
Tim Sherwood had signed Lescott from West Bromwich Albion for £1,260,000 on 1 September 2015 and his arrival was one of a number of sub-standard Villa signings that maligned the club throughout the 2015-16 campaign and drove Villa to their first relegation in nearly 30 years. Players such as Lescott as well as Micah Richards, Jordan Veretout, Jordan Ayew, Rudy Gestede, Adama Traoré and José Ángel Crespo were brought to the club despite being nowhere near the standard for a top flight player and Villa paid the price.
Lescott made his debut appearance aged 33 on Sunday, 13 September 2015 as an attacking Villa side, two goals to the good, surrendered defensively to lose 2-3 Leicester City. That, sadly, was a sign of things to come for a Villa side with Lescott foremost and central in the defence.
Taken in the round - on and off field performance and behaviour, playing reputation, previous antics when playing against Villa and a questionable attitude - there is little question Lescott stands as Villa’s worst ever signing in 127 seasons of football.
Indeed Lescott was almost single handedly culpable for the huge disconnect that grew between the fans and the club during the wretched 2015-16 season.
Seemingly there was no situation that Lescott couldn’t make worse.
Over the years Lescott had demonstrated his disdain for Villa as an opposition player.
It was therefore unfathomable why anyone at the club thought bringing an ageing centre back of questionable character and a history of fractious behaviour into the club was a good idea merely underlines how badly the club had been run over the previous decade.
Lescott’s breathtaking arrogance really was a low point in football.
Lescott’s record across his 31 appearances was 22 defeats, 6 draws and 3 wins, one of which came against lower league opposition in Birmingham City.
Happily Lescott spent just a single season with Villa and the club eventually reconstructed itself knowing they could never make that sort of mistake again.
Lescott made his final appearance for Villa on Sunday, 15 May 2016 aged 33 before being released in August 2016.

On This Day
Villa go into a two goal lead only to then collapse and record their third defeat in five Premier League games.
This is the fourth time Villa had let a two goal lead slip to fall to defeat in the Premier League.
Villa have now conceded 14 goals in their last 5 away games and lost 12 in 22 games under Tim Sherwood.
Centre back Joleon Lescott makes a losing debut in a Villa shirt aged 33 after his controversial signing from West Bromwich Albion for a fee of £1,260,000 earlier this month. Lescott becomes the 884th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football but his signing and time with Villa prove to be an unmitigated disaster on and off the field as his recruitment is seen as one of the biggest errors in the club's history despite hefty competition coming from a decade packed with underwhelming signings.
Jack Grealish scores his first goal in a Villa shirt on his 28th appearance (14 Starts) to make it W13 D4 L11, 1 Goals, 5 Assists, 2 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Carles Gil scores his 2nd goal for the club on his 10th appearance in a Villa shirt (7 Starts) to make it W3 D1 L6, 2 Goals, 1 Assist and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
Villa lose for the sixth successive Premier League game and for the seventeenth time in twenty eight matches under Tim Sherwood.
As a result, Villa dropped to bottom of the Premier League table, four points adrift of safety with ten games played.
Villa have now failed to win any of their 5 home Premier League games this season under Tim Sherwood.
Villa's latest defeat comes against Swansea City - side previously without an away win in 2015-16.
After twenty eight games, Sherwood’s reign is over, and Villa, who already looked dead certs for relegation faced a totally unnecessary mid season upheaval that could have been avoided had the club used the summer to appoint a manager capable of turning Villa around.
Sherwood, with huge amounts of goodwill, had already presided over nine defeats in sixteen as interim boss and any objective analysis of his 2014-15 campaign would have finished it there with a huge debt of gratitude at a seemingly inevitable relegation avoided.
Villa under Lerner however are nothing if not lazy and would always take the easy way out regardless of the impact on the club. The folly of such an approach is laid bare yet again.
Jordan Ayew scores his first goal in a Villa shirt on his 8th appearance (5 Starts) to make it W3 D0 L5, 1 Goal and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Carles Gil suffers his 10th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 14th appearance (9 Starts) to make it W3 D1 L10, 2 Goals, 1 Assist and 3 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Brad Guzan concedes his 225th goal on his 150th appearance in a Villa shirt (148 Starts) to make it W46 D32 L72, 1 Assist, 226 Goals Conceded, 34 Clean Sheets, 1.57 Goals per League Game and 7 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Joleon Lescott loses for the sixth time in six league games in a Villa shirt on his 7th appearance for the club to make it W1 D0 L6 so far in his Villa career.

Villa have conceded 17 goals in their last 6 games under Rémi Garde, scoring twice.
Villa lose for the 13th time in 23 games under Rémi Garde.
Villa lose their 22nd game in 37 this season.
Meanwhile the fall out from Lerner’s disastrous ownership continues as the hopeless chief executive Tom Fox and sporting director Hendrik Almstadt ‘leave’ the club whilst ten days following this game Rémi Garde leaves by "mutual consent".
Rudy Gestede suffers his 20th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 31st appearance (16 Starts) to make it W3 D8 L20, 6 Goals, 1 Assist and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Joleon Lescott loses for the sixteenth time in twenty three league games in a Villa shirt on his 24th appearance for the club to make it W3 D5 L16, 1 Goal and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Jordan Veretout makes his 29th and final appearance in a Villa shirt (24 Starts) to make it W5 D7 L17, 5 Assists and 4 Bookings. Villa had signed Veretout for £9,000,000 from Nantes in July 2015 and would leave for Fiorentina two years later for just £6,300,000.
Off th pitch, the unknown Steve Hollis continues to throw his weight around, the failed CEO marketing man Tom Fox resigns and the disastrous Hendrik Almsstadt leaves by 'mutual consent.' Brian Little, David Bernstein and Mervyn King join the board.

On This Day
Villa lose for the 22nd time in 32 Premier League games as Rémi Garde's departure and Eric Black's appointment makes zero impact.
Eric Black loses his first game in charge as caretaker manager following Rémi Garde’s departure.
Villa fall to their 7th consecutive defeat for the second time this season - equalling their worse ever run from the 1962-63 season under Joe Mercer.
Villa have now lost 23 of their last 38 eight games this season.
Villa are now 15 points from safety with just 6 games remaining.
Winger Carles Gil makes his 32nd and final appearance for Villa (23 Starts) aged 23 before moving on to Deportivo de La Coruña for a fee of £1,580,000 in July 2018. Gil had arrived at Villa from Valencia in January 2015 for a fee of £3,780,000 and left with a record of W6 D6 L22, 3 Goals, 2 Assists and 4 Bookings.
Idrissa Gueye suffers his 20th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 32nd appearance (31 Starts) to make it W4 D8 L20, 1 Goal and 7 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Joleon Lescott loses for the seventeenth time in twenty four league games in a Villa shirt on his 25th appearance for the club to make it W3 D5 L17, 1 Goal and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Carlos Sánchez loses for the 25th time in a Villa shirt on his 52nd appearance (39 Starts) to make it W14 D13 L25, 1 Goal, 1 Assist, 9 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Meanwhile two more idiotic incidents sum up the paucity of moral and footballing quality in the Villa squad as following on from the pathetic behaviour of Joleon Lescott in the aftermath of the defeat to Liverpool:
Leandro Bacuna announces himself as a world class talent. “Within the next two years, I try to make my next step, “Ajax or PSV, I think. “They play Champions League football almost every year.”
And former club captain and longest serving player Gabriel Agbonlahor is suspended for his activities on holiday.
Although appearing in the incriminating photograph with Micah Richards it is only Agbonlahor who is hung out to dry.
*BBC Radio 5 live football reporter Pat Murphy:* “The disconnect between Villa fans and players is now tangible, with the supporters ranging from resigned to angry.
“Agbonlahor’s suspension is designed to reduce the hostility towards the players that may surface at some stage during Saturday’s home game against Chelsea. “Although Agbonlahor did nothing illegal in Dubai, many Villa fans are angry at his decision to relax in such a way, with the season so close to an end."

Villa lose for the 25th time in 35 Premier League games.
Eric Black loses his fourth consecutive game in charge as caretaker manager.
Villa make it 10 consecutive defeats for the first time since 1962-63 under Joe Mercer and for only the second time in the club’s history.
Villa have now lost 26 of their last 41 Games.
Leandro Bacuna suffers his 50th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 96th appearance (74 Starts) to make it W27 D19 L50, 6 Goals, 6 Assists and 16 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Goalkeeper Brad Guzan makes his 171st and final appearance in a Villa shirt (160 Starts) aged 31 before moving on to Middlesbrough on a free transfer in July 2016. Guzan had been with the club since 2008 after joining from Club Deportivo Chivas USA for a fee of £900,000 and was released by the club in 2012 having failed to make the grade. At that point Guzan's Villa record was Played 30 (28 Starts), W15 D4 L11, 35 Goals Conceded, 8 Clean Sheets, 1.20 Goals per Game and 2 Bookings. Guzan had made 2 substitute appearances in the Premier League across 3 seasons before a run of 6 League starts in the absence of Shay Given in which he returned figures of W2 D1 L4, 9 Goals conceded and 2 Clean Sheets. Incredibly Paul Lambert brought Guzan back to the club and installed him as first choice despite his limitations, a period that coincided with Villa’s worst run of seasons in decades. Guzan's final tally was a breathtaking W47 D36 L88, 1 Assist, 273 Goals Conceded, 36 Clean Sheets, 1.67 League Goals per Game and 9 Bookings.
Centre back Kevin Toner contributes his first assist on his Villa debut aged 19 after joining from Home Farm in July 2012 and becomes the 888th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Ashley Westwood scores his 5th goal in a Villa shirt on his 136th appearance (130 Starts) to make it W37 D27 L72, 5 Goals, 11 Assists and 24 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Joleon Lescott loses for the twentieth time in twenty seven league games in a Villa shirt on his 28th appearance for the club to make it W3 D5 L20, 1 Goal and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Eric Black reveals that Jores Okore has refused to play for Villa again
Meanwhile in much happier news, Stiliyan Petrov announces his desire to return to football with Villa, four years after his leukaemia diagnosis.

On This Day
Villa gain their first point since February as they manage to keep a rare clean sheet against fellow relegated side Newcastle.
Eric Black earns his first point as caretaker manager and Villa’s first in 12 matches to make it one point gained from a potential 36.
Villa ended their joint worst ever run of consecutive league losses in a season.
Ciaran Clark makes his 160th and final appearance in a Villa shirt aged 26 before moving on to Newcastle United for a fee of £5,400,000 in August 2016. Clark made 160 appearances (144 Starts) over his 8 seasons with the club to leave with a record of W48 D38 L74, 10 Goals, 5 Assists, 47 Bookings and 1 Red Card. Across his Villa career Clark had picked up cards at the extraordinary rate of one every 3.33 games he had played.

Off the pitch it is announced that Gabriel Agbonlahor will see out the remainder of the season in the reserves due to fitness and behaviour concerns in a telling sign of the utter turmoil and unprofessionalism that has infected the squad.

On This Day
Villa lose for the 27 time in 38 Premier League games in 2015-16.
Eric Black loses his 6th game in 7 as caretaker manager.
Villa make it 28 in 44games this season.
Villa record their lowest ever total of League points - regardless of the size of the division - at 17.
Unsurprisingly the clear out of the rot gathers pace as, all things considered, possibly the worst signing in Villa’s history.
Joleon Lescott, 33, makes his 31st and final appearance before being released by the club in August 2016. Lescott lost twenty two of his thirty Premier League games, winning just twice to leave with a pitiful record, on and off the pitch, of W3 D6 L22, 1 Goal and 2 Bookings.
Midfielder Idrissa Gueye, 26, loses his 25th game in a Villa shirt on his 38th and final appearance (37 Starts) 26 before moving on to Everton in August 2016 for a fee of £7,650,000. Villa had paid £8,100,000 to LOSC Lille for Gueye’s services just a year earlier and he left with a record of W4 D9 L25, 1 Goal, 1 Assist and 10 Bookings.
Midfielder Carlos Sánchez makes his 56th and final appearance in a Villa shirt (42 Starts) aged 30 before moving on to ACF Fiorentina in July 2017 for a fee of £2,700,000 - half the fee Villa paid to Elche CF for Sánchez to join in August 2014. Sánchez left with a record over his two seasons with Villa of W14 D14 L28, 1 Goal, 1 Assist, 10 Bookings and 1 Red Card.
Centre back Kevin Toner makes his 4th and final appearance for Villa (3 Starts) aged 19 before moving on to St. Patricks Athletic in January 2018. Toner made his debut in April 2016 after joining from Home Farm in July 2012 and left with a record of W0 D1 L3 and 1 Assist.
Scott Sinclair loses his 30th game in a Villa shirt on his 30th start on this his 45th and final appearance for the club. Sinclair was inexplicably signed on a permanent deal following an underwhelming loan spell and duly delivered on expectation with a record of W8 D7 L30 and 9 Goals with only 4 coming in League football in 36 appearances.
Jordan Ayew makes his 30th start in a Villa shirt (36 Appearances) to make it W5 D8 L23, 7 Goals, 7 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Mark Bunn concedes his 20th goal in a Villa shirt on his 12th appearance to make it W3 D4 L5, 22 Goals Conceded, 4 Clean Sheets and 4 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Micah Richards loses for the 20th time in a Villa shirt on just his 28th appearance (27 Starts) to make it W4 D4 L20, 2 Goals, 1 Assist and 3 Bookings so far in his Villa career. Richards' wins had come against newly promoted Bournemouth and lower League clubs Birmingham and Wycombe and fellow relegation candidates Norwich.
