On this very special episode of The Arsenal Opinion Podcast, we welcome My Arsenal Life author Martin Wengrow — a lifelong Gooner with over seven decades of matchday stories, transfer heartbreaks, and pure red-and-white devotion under his belt.

We dive into:

What inspired the book and the role of co-author David Fensome

Martin’s early Arsenal memories and the traumatic punishment that nearly broke his fandom 😢

Inside stories of missed signings — including Dennis Law and Danny Blanchflower

The parallels between George Graham and Mikel Arteta

His glowing take on Miles Skelly and why he’s unlike any youth prospect we’ve ever had

The emotional highs, the bitter lows, and everything in between

This episode is a love letter to Arsenal Football Club through the eyes of someone who lived it, challenged it, and never stopped loving it — even when it didn’t love him back.
