ARSENAL - In the papers more than Wenger - Paul Burrell
For the first episode of series 2, we welcome Paul Burrell to the podcast.
Paul's been at Arsenal 29 years as the announcer, working at Highbury and the Emirates stadium along with a few special appearances at Wembley.
He's done League Cup Finals, FA Cup Finals, UEFA Cup finals and the Champions League final with the Gunners and has loads of stories to tell.
There's also the time he ended up in the papers for a turn of phrase one night...something that led Arsene Wenger himself to saying 'you're in the papers more than me!'
As always, Rich Hurst of West Brom and Alan Keegan of Man Utd are back as hosts, and there's a few tales of Man Utd vs Arsenal games to cover from down the years.
