Boyd and Josh were joined by friend of the podcast Ricky Lawrence for an immediate reaction to defeat at Goodison Park. There was no 'snail' chat this week to boost morale after two successive defeats on the road, where Arsenal threw away points in an all too familiar fashion having taken the lead yet again. Do we remain in a battle for fourth spot or are we back concentrating on any European qualification and nothing more? What do we do with a problem like Auba and what has Pepe done to deserve...
Dec 07, 2021•53 min•Transcript available on Metacast Boyd and Josh were joined by chocolatier Oliver Shorts for a rare Sunday night podcast. Boyd’s Breakfast Party of Snails and Omelettes makes for an unusual start to the podcast but before long the trio settle down to talk business and victory over Newcastle. Odegaard’s inclusion didn’t prove to be what many would have hoped for, but credit is given to Arteta after a fine performance from Tavares and Lokonga whom the manager stuck by. A huge trip to Manchester awaits, likely against a new manager...

Nov 02, 2021•1 hr 2 min•Transcript available on Metacast Boyd and Josh were joined by chocolatier Oliver Shorts as the trio revelled in one of the best performances of recent times as Arsenal outplayed Aston Villa with a comfortable 3-1 win. The joy of Emile Smith Rowe is the standout topic, with his importance to this side now seemingly unquestionable, whilst Lacazette’s impressive first Premier League start leaves us all wondering quite how Arteta fits him in after two impressive performances. There’s time to look ahead to Leeds, thoughts on Benjami...

Oct 19, 2021•1 hr 4 min•Transcript available on Metacast Boyd and Josh were joined by Gareth The Bear Parker to reflect on a point gained on the South Coast as Arsenal and Brighton drew 0-0 whilst the trio reflect on the state of Arsenal as we head into another International break. Is this the most settled Arsenal side in years? Is Gabriel’s dentist the busiest around? How will we cope without Xhaka and is Aubameyang going to rediscover the kind of form that once made him a golden boot winner? Thanks for listening and we’ll be back in two weeks time! ...
Oct 05, 2021•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Boyd and Josh were joined by Arsenal Twitter Royalty as Geoff Arsenal was back on the podcast as we rejoiced after the terrific 3-1 win in the North London Derby. Where to start? Glorious.

Sep 27, 2021•49 min•Transcript available on Metacast Boyd and Josh were joined by friend of the podcast, PR aficionado Max Goodbourn to reflect on successive wins for the Gunners that are starting to make the so called crisis move a little ever further away. We all enjoyed a gritty 1-0 win to the Arsenal, a thing of beauty so associated with the club during a successful period in the 1990s, was just what was needed in a must win fixture as Arsenal start climbing the table. We look ahead to a big week, where Arsenal will seek more success, with AFC...
Sep 20, 2021•56 min•Transcript available on Metacast Boyd and Josh were joined by friend of the podcast Dean Allan - aka ‘Afcamden’ on twitter to reflect on the last two weeks in North London. Arteta referred to the last fortnight as his best in football and whilst Boyd wants to query how true that is, we’re all delighted The Gunners are off the mark with a win and to be off the foot of the table. With a fully fit first choice back four, a returning Thomas Partey and Aubameyang scoring goals perhaps the dark clouds that have been set over the Emir...

With a whole host of players out it was always going to be a challenge up against the European Champions and so it proved as Arsenal were limp in their North London Derby defeat to Chelsea. Are there reasons for optimism in amongst the gloom from two opening defeats? A plan in place with transfers that we should get beh...
Aug 24, 2021•54 min•Transcript available on Metacast Sidekick Josh has outrageously gone on holiday to avoid Arsenal-based chat but we still have top-notch insights from Alan Algar and Ricky Lawrence as they join Boyd to discuss just how bad that performance was against Brentford, the manager’s bizarre comments on Auba, why he seems to be aping Pep’s tactics with massively inferior players and if Arteta will be gone by Christmas. Plus - are we excited about the probable signing of Odegaard and of course predictions of how we’ll cope with Chelsea o...
