  • Monk approves. Regrettably.

    I begrudgingly have to give this gaggle of Gooner’s their due, it really is an excellent podcast, in depth, insightful, and thankfully not hyperbolic. I need a shower now.

  • Best Sound Quality

    Of all the AFC pods out there, the sound quality is up there with the professionals. The content is good: match reviews, news and a few laughs from fans who go to games and give an insight of what it’s like to follow The Arsenal. Would recommend.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 250 - The North Bank Meets... Sophie Nicolaou from Highbury Squad
Q: What makes Highbury Squad unique in its approach to Arsenal content?
Sophie highlights the blend of fan perspective and professional insight, the emphasis on storytelling over pure content, and the ability to connect communities across continents, particularly between London and the United States.
Ep. 250 - The North Bank Meets... Sophie Nicolaou from Highbury Squad
Q: How did Sophie first become involved with football media?
She explains her journey from radio in London to LA, describing how her early experiences and opportunities with World Football Daily and TalkSport helped her build a platform and voice in football broadcasting.
Ep. 220 - International Break Mailbag
Q: If you could swap one player from another Premier League team for Arsenal, who would it be?
They considered Gyokeres for Harland as a hypothetical, with other options like Semenyo or Bowen discussed as upgrades in certain roles, though skepticism about whether any single move would dramatically fix the balance.
Ep 215: Mansfield Review, Leverkeusen Preview
Q: First, Stef, what was the atmosphere like at Mansfield and how did the ground and crowd influence the game?
The crowd was intense and the atmosphere amplified nerves around the performance, but both sets of fans handled the day with respect; the ground's tight layout and the Mansfield supporters' energy created a challenging environment that's understandable for a lower-league venue, yet it didn't derail Arsenal's approach as the focus stayed on managing the game and securing progression.
Ep. 210 - Wolves Fallout, NLD Preview
Q: What do you think is the main problem contributing to the poor run?
There's a mix of factors including psychology, tactics, and individual player performances leading to a lack of control and actions on the pitch.
