0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of the Arsenal Women Askcast on AskBlog.com. I was
0:19.6	going to give you the usual strapline about how this is the only podcast dedicated to the
0:24.3	Arsenal Women's Team, but I've had correspondence from a friend of the pod, one time guest on the
0:30.8	pod, an excellent Dutch football journalist, Amary Posner, who tells me that there is another
0:35.8	podcast about the Arsenal Women's Team that is recorded by a group of Dutch girls actually.
0:42.2	So my premise that we are the only podcast dedicated to the Arsenal Women's Team has been
0:48.1	shot down, nevertheless, we'll still claim that we're the best for now because I don't speak
0:54.6	Dutch and therefore I cannot confirm whether the other one is actually better. But anyway, stick
1:00.8	with us. It's great that there are more podcasts about the Arsenal Women's Team, but we'd like to
1:05.1	still consider ourselves the Premier one. This week, once again, delighted to be joined by Alex Ibar

1:29.5	you were at the Chelsea game against Redding at Kingsmeadow. But anticlimactic final day?
1:36.6	I think so. It's my first final day as a journalist, obviously, because last season got robbed of
1:44.6	that final, but I was expecting party and exciting emotions everywhere. And then the final whistle
1:51.6	went and Chelsea just very, doli celebrated the final whistle and I was just very underwhelmed.
2:00.0	And at the same time, I was looking at Twitter and Barcelona, obviously won the league in Spain.
2:05.2	And they were just jumping in the pool. Yeah, exactly, jumping in the pool, going crazy,
2:10.1	champagne bottles everywhere. So it was very underwhelming, but it was a five-nil win on your final day.
2:17.5	That's pretty decent, but yeah, just not what I was expecting, I guess.
2:22.2	Yeah, yeah. And to be fair, if I was going to see a league title, I'd probably prefer to do it
