Summary
On today's show we have a round-table discussion about the final game of the season and the season as a whole, including Arsene Wenger's departure and where we go from here. Mikel Arteta's name is being strongly linked with the job so we discuss his suitability for the job, the pros and cons of a manager who has never managed, the influence of the new football executive structure at the club and how the IRS have a big responsibility to take us forward, the mix of trepidation, curiousity and excitement is interesting.
Joining me to chat about all that are @eastlower, @LGAmbrose and @Poznaninmypants.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another RSCAST right here on RSplug.com. The season is over but there's |
| 0:27.0 | still lots to talk about. And as is traditional on this podcast we do an end of season round table. |
| 0:33.6 | We've got a slightly varied crew, a different crew from normal but I'm delighted to welcome the |
| 0:39.5 | man from East Lower Jim. Good evening to you. Good evening to you. We have got our tactics columnist, |
| 0:45.2 | sometimes tactics columnist for RSplug.com who will probably have a bit more work to do next season |
| 0:51.6 | because we're going to have new tactics and a new manager, Lewis Ambrose. Hello Lewis. |
| 0:56.4 | And all the way from the other side of the world but from very close to me originally we have |
| 1:02.2 | got Paul who is posonin in my pants who you will know of course from the Arsenal Vision podcast. |
| 1:07.0 | Good evening to you. Oh no that's surely that's trademarked to the other podcast. You could just say hello |
| 1:13.5 | or you know something in Irish. I don't know maybe no. Yeah we could go with that. Hello. Oh that's |
| 1:19.8 | that's good. That's good Irish. I like it. I like it. We're going to talk a little bit about |
| 1:24.7 | what's coming down the line in a little bit. So what I would like you to do before I get into that |

| 1:38.4 | about Mikael Arterra as Arsenal manager. I'm going to come back to you a little bit later and ask you |
| 1:45.0 | what that word might be. But Jim I just want to start the podcast as we normally do by talking |
| 1:52.0 | about the season that's gone. It feels strange to me in a way because it's sort of ended in |
| 2:00.0 | in a kind of happy way. It's been quite enjoyable the last couple of weeks. |
| 2:04.7 | Ars and Venger after the decision was made, the announcement was made. Everything's been kind of |
