Summary

On this week's show I chat with Amy Lawrence about the upcoming documentary '89' which, unsurprisingly, tells the epic story of Arsenal's title win in the 88-89 season. Needing to go to Anfield and win by two clear goals, Michael Thomas's last gasp winner has become an unforgettable piece of Arsenal history. Amy and I chat about the season itself, the making of the film, and more, before chatting more generally about the pressures football puts on players and fans these days – in particular the prospect of Christmas Eve football. There's also Steve McMahon's 1-minute finger.

you're well. I am furious. Absolutely apoplectic with rage. I'll tell you why. I've got a

garment. I've got one of those watches. It's a garment thing. It tracks you when you do your

0:37.2

exercise, when you're walking your steps, when you're running, when you're sighted. It does

0:41.1

all that shit. It gets your heartbeat. What's my heartbeat at this moment in time? It's 70.

0:45.1

Should be going up now as I get more and more. Oh, fuck 74. Anyway, every so often the watch

0:51.4

it buzzes and tells you move, move, and every single time it makes me angry. I was just moving

0:59.2

before I sat down to do this podcast. Why can't you if you're so fucking brilliant at technology

1:05.1

garment, realize that I've stopped moving and I deserve the right to sit down without you

1:10.2

badgering me to get up and move again. I'll move when I like. God damn watch. Anyway, apart

1:17.2

from that, I'm fine. I hope you're fine. Hope you're doing well this week. The football

1:21.3

is back. Arsenal return this weekend. We go to Vicarage Road to play Elton Johns Watford.

1:27.2

Of course Saturday evening kickoff. So we got away all day Saturday and then it's Saturday

1:31.2

evening and that kind of that kind of messes with your schedule a bit, doesn't it? Are you

1:35.2

going to go out on Saturday night after the game? Is it a bit late to leave the house by

1:39.6

the time the match ends and I do all the bits and pieces that I've got to do for the website?

1:44.1

Is it too late? Am I too old now to consider going out at nine o'clock or nine thirty?

1:50.1

I probably am. I feel more comfortable coming home at that time than going out these days.

1:55.8

That says a lot about me. Anyway, I don't want to complain. I don't want to rant. I don't
