Here we are. The second worst fixture of the football calendar, from my perspective, with the away North London Derby easily being the worst. Despite the fact we have a good record at home, despite the fact some of my best memories are from NLD's of years gone by, I still hate the tension ahead [...]
All things considered, I find myself surprisingly happy about the football at the end of this weekend, after The Scum did us a favour and beat Man City to ensure that our five point lead at the top of the league remains in tact. And I was happy that they won yesterday. And I don't [...]
Would you believe it: I've read so much Arsenal content over the last few days, listened to so many Arsenal podcasts, that I'm already running out of #content to digest. So this morning, as a bit of a giggle as I did my morning run, I decided to flick on a Spurs podcast, just to [...]
Well good morning to you, fellow - very happy - Gooner! I'd pretty much downed tools on the ol' blog front on account of getting up late every morning in a beautiful tropical island and just wanting to drink cocktails and sit by the pool, but having arrived yesterday just as the game was in [...]
Morning fellow Gooners. Hope we are all still feeling splendid after the weekend's events? Well, those on Saturday, anyway, because that was where all the fun was to be had and last night I jumped on the Same Old Arsenal pod to wax lyrical about the North London Derby victory and it felt gooooooooood.

For as much as I hate the pre match build up to a North London Derby, the feeling of euphoria after a well deserved win is something that is unmatched at any other stage of the season. It’s like getting the greatest reward for your suffering and yesterday mornings suffering has certainly been rewarded with [...]
Morning people, hope you're all doing well? It's due to be a nice weekend here in London so I'm already in a good mood for a bit of sunshine. Whether or not we'll get good Arsenal news remains to be seen. The only news on the official site yesterday was that a young lad Amario [...]
Having to do today’s ramblings via my Smartphone unfortunately, so going back to pre-pandemic ways, which means the high probabilities of typos and other such predictive text nonsense. So please bear with. But what’s been going through my mind today has been - unsurprisingly perhaps - the ‘permutations’ of the remainder of this season. I [...]
Morning and happy Wednesday to you wonderful people. I don't know about you but this week has absolutely flown by for me and as two big games loom on the horizon in the space of four games from tomorrow, the nerves are starting to kick in. So too is the realisation that by Monday things [...]
Yesterday I watched the Southampton v The Scum game in the absence of any proper football on TV. I wanted to get a proper look at Antonio Conte's team and given the good run of form they were on I wondered what I'd see. Of course at this time of year it is difficult to [...]
