Episode 3138: Twenty Twenty Five: Let’s Hope It’s A Good One
We opened our Christmas mailbag to find it full of severed horses’ heads sent by angry Arsenal listeners. So today’s first football show of 2025 is sent out into the world with a message of peace and reconciliation. Arsenal fans: we see you, we hear you, we believe you.
We also talk about whether Manchester United are in a relegation battle and why Real Madrid bid £20 million for Trent Alexander-Arnold, and why it looks like the tapes from Wayne Rooney’s brief but exciting stint at Plymouth will sadly never be released.
