A stalemate at home to Man Utd keeps us ticking along in the league. We discuss the nervy 0-0, honing in on the much-improved-yet-still-lacking Nicolas Pépé. There’s also time to hail our excellent midweek win at St Mary’s and welcome loan signing Martin Ødegaard with anagrams and pronunciations galore, before Dan’s digital sack brings us to a close.Twitter and Instagram: @tbbpodEmail: bruisedbananapod@gmail.comPlease take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts, Google or wherever you get

We’re out of the cup but no matter because we’ve signed Sir Mathew of Ryan from the mighty Brighton & Hove Albion in the loan of the century except it really does matter because we love that bloody competition and it’s ours and now we no longer get to participate in our own competition which quite frankly isn’t on at all.Twitter and Instagram: @tbbpodEmail: bruisedbananapod@gmail.comPlease take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts, Google or wherever you get your pods.

Three wins from three, eight goals scored, one against. Wow. We discuss the recent unexpected upturn in fortunes and once again pay tribute to our diamond lights, Kieran and Bukayo. Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but those lads are so delightful. And since we’ve no place to go, let’s score goals, let’s score goals, let’s score goals.

“Ohhh Granit Xhaka! You might’ve scored a worldy but you’re still a c…” But you’re not, Bukayo. Nor you, Emile. And definitely not you, Gabriel. You represent hope, and joy, and all things fresh, sparkly and great. Recent pain and misery is pushed firmly to one side as we fully embrace the win over Chelsea. The succulent 3 goals, points, and wunderkinds. Good old Arsenal. Now just stay good.Twitter and Instagram: @tbbpodEmail: bruisedbananapod@gmail.comPlease take the time to rate and review us on

We discuss yet another loss. Tom goes to the tip. Alex rants about Walcott. Dan reads the listener comments. Christmas is cancelled. Now it's time to cancel Mikel Arteta and his awful Arsenal team. We've been there and back again. The state that we are in.

Four episodes ago we wrote a silly Des’Ree gag for this bit which culminated in ‘...this style of football really is unsustainable and cannot be allowed to continue any further’. Well, continue it has. After the car wreck that was the 1 nil home defeat to Burnley, we wonder if Arteta’s reign may be coming to an end. Where did it all go so desperately, horribly wrong? Would even Roy Hodgson be a better bet at this stage, perhaps with Des’Ree as assistant gaffer? The answer is of course a resounding

Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry? The Evil Man has beaten the Culture Club. Again. We ponder over what this means for ‘Project Non-Negotiables’ as we come to terms with yet another toothless league display. Oi Arsenal, go and brush your teeth. Except you don’t have any. Sigh.

2020/11/30

Stop the football, we want to get off. Yet another lacklustre Premier League display leaves Dan and Tom questioning why we even bother, as Arsenal succumb to a 2-1 defeat at home to Wolves. We pay tribute to the passing of a genuine football legend, and wonder when exactly our sport will get wise to the dangers of head injuries. With Alex away for the week we, very briefly, touch on the win against Molde before seeking crumbs of comfort in your beautiful correspondence. Right now, it's all we've

Remember goals? A host of opportunities? A string of chances to bulge the net? Seeing said net bulge, presumably after someone’s rifled one home, or maybe finished with aplomb? Goals are nice. Maybe we’ll do one again someday. So, yeah. Leeds. And then Molde. And then mailbag. Good episode, this. Long. Filled to the brim with words, like any self-respecting podcast should be. Enjoy. We’ll score again soon. Promise. Twitter and Instagram: @tbbpodEmail: bruisedbananapod@gmail.comPlease take the time

The squibs get damper as we succumb to our second straight 1 nil loss in the league. We look at what went wrong against Leicester before considering what (just about) went right against Rapid, ending with a preview of Dundalk at home and a thorough dismantling of their club crest.

2020/10/19

We return from the international break to more than familiar territory: a demoralising defeat away to a ‘big six’ club. The dampest of damp squibs takes the spotlight this week, as we wonder whether the narrow margin of the loss to Man City represents progress in itself. With the Europa League back on the horizon, we check in our first opponents Rapid Vienna, before ending with questions about Aubameyang, Willian, and what we got up to during the interlull (ans: lots of telly).Twitter and Instagram:

Chris Wilder’s gilet is crap and nowhere near as good as Mikel Arteta’s glorious and also extremely classy puffer jacket of dreams, and for that reason alone we should’ve been awarded the three points. Luckily for us, we managed to score 2 goals and Sheffield United only scored 1, rendering that particular argument completely and utterly superfluous. We review our win against the Blades, as well as transfer inactivity, the greatest penalty taker of all-time, and – once again – Mesut the invisible

Two wins from our first two games of the season with a trip to Anfield on the horizon – now, where have we seen that before? We cover the jammy three points against West Ham and wonder if it was simply a bad day at the office or cause for greater concern. We also hear about Tom’s father-son tour of the Emirates before finishing up with questions aplenty in Dan’s digital sack.

We woke up today with this feeling. That better things are coming our way. And if the sunshine has a meaning. It's telling us not to let things get in our way. When the rainy days are dying, gotta keep on, keep on trying, all the bees and birds are flying (ahh ahh ahh). Never let go, gotta hold on and, non-stop 'til the break of dawn and, keep movin' don't stop rockin' (ahh ahh ahh)... Laca-zette, Ga-briel, Pierre-Emerick-Aubame-yang. I know it's too much, but it's okay. We'll keep on winning games

A new season. New hopes. New dreams. New expectations. How will the new boys fare? How will the old boys, er, fare? How many shiny trophies will we haul into our already heaving cabinet of trinkets and cups and shields? Will it be all of them? Yes, it most likely will be all of them.

Yep, it’s that season review episode. With the jubilation of Wembley punctured within days of the trophy fumble, we saw fit to pull out our finest of fine-tooth combs and examine the heck out of the 2019/20 campaign, month by freakin’ month. There’s also plenty of time to dispense our now customary annual awards in this most tempestuous of seasons. Take a deep breath and hold onto your hats.

Mik Arteta’s magic, he wears a magic hat, and when he saw Mes-douzi, he said: “I’m not having that, sod off you pair of gits, I’ve got to guide Granit, direct David, administer Ainsley, enable Emi, and permit Pierre, and oh look, we’ve won the FA Cup, blimey I’ve only been here 5 minutes, how good is that, imagine what I’ll be capable of with a bit of money and a bit more time. Just imagine. (He actually said all that, crazy right?)Twitter and Instagram: @tbbpodEmail:
