Episode 3685: Crash Bang Premier League, Rovers On The Ropes, Arteta’s Joker Guru, Webb Eats Gorilla, Lampards Golden Wrist
Welcome back to the podcast where you can receive your news from inside the mind of Howard Webb three to four weeks before Howard Webb himself announces it.
Arsenal have announced job cuts, with £20m-a-year Mikel Arteta explaining that the redundancy programme is all part of the club’s relentless drive towards excellence. Coventry maybe better not follow suit, what with the fuss their manager’s wristwear is causing.
A despondent David Sneyd joins us in studio to deny there really is a League of Ireland title race. Luckily, not everybody agrees.
