Summary
On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris and Sid welcome former Arsenal goalkeeper Graham Stack, who enjoyed a wild career with clubs including Reading, Wolves, Hibs, Barnet, and Kerala Blasters. Known as much for his no-nonsense style as his shot-stopping, Stack lifts the lid on some of football’s most infamous behind-the-scenes moments, including what really happened in the dressing room during Arsenal’s 03/04 season.
Stack reflects on the chaos and camaraderie of his playing days, including infamous training ground bust-ups, dressing-room scraps, and wild fan encounters abroad. He also reveals his latest venture—organising a one-of-a-kind boxing night where ex-footballers swap the pitch for the ring, raising funds for charities close to his heart such as the Willow Foundation.
Expect Stack’s infamously outrageous stories, brutal honesty, and the kind of behind-the-scenes insight only a journeyman goalkeeper with tales from Arsenal’s Invincibles to non-league can deliver.

| 0:09.0 | Now, I've had a thought with your height, your family and of course your golf clubs, |
| 0:13.0 | surely it's impossible to find a motor that you love Pete. |
| 0:15.9 | Listen, it is chaotic, to be fair. |
| 0:18.5 | With school starting back soon, I've got a feeling we may need to upgrade the car for a school run again. |
| 0:23.0 | Yep, that's got to be a nightmare. |
| 0:24.3 | Kids always growing as well, I imagine quite tall by now, given your jeans. |
| 0:29.6 | Yes, they are tall. |
| 0:32.1 | I may, let me tell you, spending hours looking at cars with the kids is not fun. |
| 0:36.9 | No. |
| 0:37.5 | Well, Pete, I know this is why you wanted to talk about Cynch today. You've heard the name, but do you know just how brilliant it is? Of course, I do. It's Faf free car buying. Chris, you're speaking my language. They're an online used car retailer and the whole mission is to simplify the process. So I've had a look on the website and what immediately got me is they have the biggest range of cars to buy entirely online. It's |
| 0:58.8 | brilliant for a picky family and wife. Pretty good, eh? No more weekend research |
| 1:03.6 | marathons trying to find something that fits everyone. You can browse from the sofa, |
| 1:07.9 | wherever you're laying out your long legs with 360 degree photos of the |
| 1:12.6 | cars. And if there are imperfections, it's all highlighted so you know exactly what you're buying. |
| 1:18.0 | It's perfect to browse when there's a boring match on the TV. Exactly. If a relegation contender |
| 1:22.6 | is parking the bus, you can look for your family's new minibus. See what I've done there? |
| 1:26.7 | Yeah, it's an awful joke, Chris. |
| 1:28.2 | But it genuinely is being able to cinch it. I've always wanted to say that. Yes, you're just like |
| 1:33.0 | Ryland. No faf, just certainty. I'll definitely check it out for my next motor. Visit cinch.com.uk not UK to cinch it. |
| 1:25.0 | Eat that, Ryland. |
