Send a textA five-hour wait in A&E with my toddler stripped away any illusions I had about emergency care. Corridor beds, exhausted staff, and a doctor arguing for babies to be seen before a sixty-year-old with a rash this is the UK's reality, where private healthcare won't fast-track an emergency and winter air feels like a petri dish. I share what we saw, what it did to me as a mum, and the blunt lesson it pressed into my bones: invest in your health before the system makes choices for you.From there we move to power, strategy and public backlash. Eni Aluko's criticism of men fronting women's football raises a valid point, but targeting Ian Wright the sport's most visible ally torpedoed the message. We unpack what went wrong and extract career-proof lessons: name systems, not saviours; choose timing and venue with intent; and remember that you can be right and still lose if you sound reactive. Brand is strategy in public protect it, or the audience closes the door you're trying to open.Then the BAFTAs aired the N-word at two Black presenters, unbleeped, while other phrases were censored. Tourette's explains involuntary tics; broadcasters still owe safeguarding to their audience and guests. Representation without protection is not inclusion. We break down accountability, why “they handled it professionally” is a trap, and how institutions reveal their values in what they choose to edit or not.Finally, a listener faces major fibroid surgery while debating resignation. I make the case for recovery first, decisions second. Use protected sick leave, keep your legal and financial footing, and plan your next move from a healed place, not a depleted one. If you're navigating A&E chaos, media noise, or workplace dilemmas, this episode offers clarity, strategy and a steady hand.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a clear plan, and leave a review so others can find us.

4:56 - Reflections on Childhood Sports Memories and InfluencesIn a conversation about childhood sports memories, Justin Richards shares his experience of winning a Youth Alliance Cup at Wembley, highlighting its significance. He cites Ian Wright as his childhood idol, noting how Wright's confidence and style resonated with him as a young black player. Michael Wright adds that Ian's personality has made him a national treasure.13:09 - The Evolution of the Number Nine Role in FootballJustin Richards explains that the traditional number nine role has diminished due to a greater emphasis on build-up play and the versatility of modern attackers. He highlights how players who once played as strikers are now taking on roles as wingers or attacking midfielders, which allows them to utilize their skills in different ways. This shift has resulted in a decrease in the importance of goal-scoring for those players, as they can contribute in various positions without the pressure of being a primary scorer.25:14 - Understanding and Assessing Killer Instinct in PlayersMichael Wright and Justin Richards explore the definition and assessment of "killer instinct" in football. Justin describes it as a player's selfish drive to score, highlighting the need for coaches to recognize players' intent to shoot when they receive the ball. He also notes the importance of allowing players to experience decision-making in game situations to learn from their choices.32:12 - Session Design for Striker DevelopmentMichael Wright and Justin Richards explore effective training methods for strikers, highlighting the need for tailored session designs based on player profiles. Justin suggests using unopposed drills to enhance finishing skills and discusses the importance of creating game-like scenarios to help players make instinctive decisions during matches. They also touch on the significance of understanding pitch geography and goalkeeper positioning.41:48 - Coaching Techniques for StrikersMichael Wright inquired about the coaching experiences of Justin Richards, particularly regarding the teaching of striking techniques. Justin shared that while he received limited individual coaching during his professional career, he found value in learning various finishing techniques from a goalkeeper coach. He highlighted the importance of understanding what defenders dislike, which can inform practice design for strikers.48:58 - Insights on Coaching PhilosophyIn a discussion with Michael Wright, Justin Richards highlighted the qualities he values most in his coaching approach: energy, empathy, and knowledge. He explained that fostering enthusiasm and understanding players' backgrounds are essential for effective coaching and player development. Richards also noted that empathy allows him to reflect on his sessions more constructively.52:26 - Training Methodologies for Strikers and GoalkeepersMichael Wright emphasizes the need for a detailed training regimen for strikers, inspired by Bielsa's method of breaking down training into specific sections. He proposes a rotation system for training days that includes analysis, gym work, and targeted pitch practice. Justin Richards agrees, suggesting that Mondays could be dedicated to individual learning plans (ILPs) to enhance practice efficiency. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this short bonus episode I'm joined by Arsenal legend Ian Wright to chat about our 1-0 win over Man Utd on the opening day. We discuss the difficulty of Old Trafford and the importance of taking three points on the first day of the season; Viktor Gyokeres making his debut, the pressure on him to deliver, and parallels between his career and Ian, both of whom joined the club in their late 20s; and the incredible partnership between William Saliba and Gabriel whose defensive prowess was pivotal to the win and keeping a clean sheet away from home.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
