Summary

On this edition of the Arsenal Vision Post Match Podcast, a repost of last week’s Patreon episode, Elliot (@yankeegunner) is joined by Tim (@stillberto) to discuss the role fans play in supporting the team through thick and thin. With some of the statements coming out of the club the two explore the question of what fans should be doing to support the club or express their displeasure. There’s a discussion about reporting and how journalists communicate club messages to the fans. And of course there’s some discussion of Emery’s future and what it says about Raul and the backroom staff generally. Then Lewis Ambrose (@lgambrose) joins the pod to discuss the situation surrounding Aubameyang in the wake of some controversy about his associations and reporting about problems in the dressing room. There’s also a discussion about the role of fan produced content with an emphasis on AFTV. All that and more on this edition of the Arsenal Vision Post Match Podcast.

This is just me letting you know that the podcast you're about to hear is the Patreon pod from last week where we discussed fandom and the Shack incident and the Obamian thing. It just kind of went over what it means to be a fan of the club and what our role is in

the success and potentially failure of the club. And there's some memory stuff in there and just some other interlully kind of stuff. So we hope you enjoy it. We're putting it out for everyone today because I think it prompted some interesting feedback and conversations and we're interested to get your take on it.

2:17.9

Oh, Steve! Back in it! Here's Lippa! Lott! Well, this is some breaking news. Well, this is some breaking news. We've just been handed a first copy of a report generated within the club. It turns out that they have carefully canvassed all of the issues surrounding the performance of the team, the players, the manager. They have in fact been diving deep into this, wanting to get to the bottom of the problem. And the good news is the report has found the locus of the issue. The problem is you. So fix up. This is the Arsenal Vision post-match podcast. My name is Elliot Smith. You can talk me on Twitter, Yankee Gunner.

That's right.

2:15.8

We are living in Gaslight Nation, apparently, happening all over the world, in fact. And with respect to Arsenal, I think it is fair to say that the fans are, in fact, the problem. So now that we've gotten to the root of it, the court of it, we can eliminate it and just eliminate the fans. and maybe that is in fact the club's clever ploy.

2:17.3

What on earth am I talking about?

2:34.2

We'll get into that, but I do want to sort of explore the question of fans'

2:40.5

role in the performance of a team, the proper ways of support, what kinds of fan groups are

2:46.5

appropriate and allowed and are not appropriate and allowed and things like that. So one of the

2:50.7

reasons that comes up is we'll be discussing the Obamian issue, newly named captain, and acting like the captain does by apparently being completely toxic. A kid, I absolutely love him, as you know, but there are some issues. And so Louis Ambrose will be joining us later.
