This week there is no football. Internationals don't count... okay. We discuss champagne, Mo Salah's brother's wedding and get an update on who should stay and who should go. The bet is a live event this week and because it's already happened I can tell you - it didn't win any money. Our Jukebox challenge is in honour of our Scottish players over the years as we celebrate Kieran Tierney making it to the Euros. Support the show...

This week we discuss the £14.95 fiasco on Sunday night, and look back at better results - particularly at Man United. Stuart is angry! But John makes us happy again with a Quickfire John US of A special. We also talk Zelalem in a quiz that's got the boys counting as fast as a vote counter in the US election. YEE HAW!

First of all - apologies that due to a headphones mic mishap Matt sounds rather loud and distorted on this episode - Secondly we don't talk about the game on Sunday (much) in protest of pay-per-view. We do a Quickfire John on what else you could spend your £15, We go on a half term Stute-machine time machine as we go 'Back to the Future' and we have a pay-per-view quiz to leave you wondering why John doesn't start a podcast on boxing/wrestling. Oh... and John proves that he h...

We turn all Coleen Rooney on a rival podcast and see if we can place jokes for them to copy on next week’s pod. We also talk about cheaters, with Man City and their financial fair play being worse cheating than a race against Ben Johnson on Shadow from Gladiator’s back – we have cheats, red cards and all the fun of the funniest podcast for Arsenal fans. Enjoy! Support the show

We are top of the league say we are top the league! New season, new features include 'mates rates' as we attempt to rate every player which is difficult when the last part of DES is coming on at nine and you all want to watch it.

Stute-machine and a special Willan Quiz tops it off - it&a...

John loves Eddie Howe as a woman - sad he lost his job at Bournemouth. Okay so the season curtain raiser has already happened - and we beat the bin dippers in that aswell - yay! But here is our season review. Late, but perfectly formed - we catch up with the boys after the world was plunged into a pandemic and we find a shocked and stunned bunch who have watched Arsenal dismantle City, Liverpool and Chelsea. Happy new season everyone! Hopefully we will all be back at the Emirates soon. Support t...

Before we locked down, we recorded this podcast unaware that during it, Mikel Arteta was diagnosed with Coronavirus and no football would take place. However, it is one of the funniest episodes ever. We hear an argument which Matt loses spectacularly, the time John won a fancy dress competition dressed as a woman, and talk about the game with West Ham...? Do you remember that game? Did we win? I think we did. Stay home and stay safe and we hope this gives you some fun and laughter in this diffic...

Watford draw this week sent us all a bit loopy - in my Watford Gap quiz we discover that I could have been on X-factor with my sweet soulful voice - the boys don't agree. John has eaten 8 chupa chup lollies (the sour kind) and has issues with his mouth. He also insisted on having six sausages at a Watford Gap pick and mix breakfast which caused a tailback on the M1 Support the show

This week we discuss Aaron Ramsey's strange contract situation and John assumes that Matt must be in love with the Welsh international. The Stu-t Machine goes for Bury - so the Bury best of luck with that. We also play a game called under 18 or 1918 to test the boy's knowledge of the Arsenal players of the past and the future. We also discuss the Palace and Blackpool games and there is a special spooky Quickfire John Halloween special. Support the show...

When I suggested that it would be 'Blackpool week like in Strictly' soon after we drew them in the league cup, the title of this podcast was John's response. We see the glorious return of the feature Dear John. Apologies for the delay in getting a new episode up, there were some technical and personal issues but now we are fully geared up for a good season ahead. (A bit like our defensive displays).
