We are back after our holiday hiatus! Instead of dragging on about the 4 game weeks that occurred between our last recording, we decided to focus on catching up on the news surrounding the Premier League. More sackings, more appointments, more chaos! Both on and off the field of course. We discuss Player X finally going to trial, Chelsea's downturn, Nottingham Forest's resilience, and what to look forward to in the second half of the season. We also touch on the first legs of the Carabao Cup games and what Arteta said about the balls. So come on back, grab a cold, or warm bevey, and intake the sweet nectar that it Drinking Inside the Box. In addition to ear hole consumption, we also are on Patreon in video form via American Scouser.

Two managerial sacks on the same day last week and both from bottom of the table challengers. We take a deep dive into statistics of survival rates after firing managers in relegation situations. Plus a few match bans to discuss, and an update from West Ham United on their Jamaican striker. On the field action did not cease to amazing again this weekend, as title hopefuls, Liverpool, put in a valiant 10 man effort to secure a point, while the Blues continue their hot streak and are right on the coat tails. Man City drop calamitous points to local rivals extending the run to 1 win in 11 for Pep's men, and another massive rivalry also sees the visitors leave with all three points. Finally in the battle of old European powers revival, Nottingham Forest pull a big comeback against Villa to win at home.

Merry Christmas to all our loyal DITBoxers! And may you put the BOX in everyone's Boxing Day.

We are coming to you fresh from the Spurs Chelsea game. With Gordon's travel schedule interfering with regulars programming we did not want to leave you wonderful listeners high and dry when such a wild weekend was afoot. Thus we figured it would be great to give you all another early gift! We touch on some sad stories regarding West Ham's Antonio, and Man United's Kath. We laugh at Ashworth's dismissal, and contemplate all things Merseyside Derby. Once again we were treated to some goal fests and despite not being able to speak on two games, we still eclipsed 30 goals this weekend. On field action included, City and Arsenal dropping points, Chelsea ruling Spurs, and some late late action in the Leicester -Brighton game and the Ipswich-Bournemouth game. With their late comeback win, Bournemouth set an EPL record. Are Chelsea contenders? Are we happy the Merseyside Derby was postponed? Will Kelly and Gordon get any sleep tonight?
