Wednesday mornings, eh? Not quite the weekend, far enough away from last weekend to keep any lingering happy thoughts away, instead if you're a desk jockey like me you face a full day of work knowing that the weekend still lies a little too far beyond touching distance. I'm sure that's why they invented midweek [...]
This time of the year is always a bit funny, I find, because people lose their minds over stuff that hasn't even happened yet. But what is worse is when people lose their minds over what others are doing. I get it to a point though. Until something concrete happens with your own team, you [...]
It's a new week, the football is now all officially over for last season after the Champions League on Saturday night (I don't consider the Club World Cup as football - it's a FIFA money-spinning exercise) and the transfer window officially opened yesterday. It's open only for the clubs who are part of the national [...]
I didn't watch the Champions League final last night. I'm in Yorkshire with some of The Management's family over from New Zealand and we're doing a little bit of a holiday and, frankly, I didn't want to spoil it by watching a game that I feel we could/should have been in. Give me an Arsenal [...]
No, I'm not talking about my old Pal Ben who I used to do the podcast with years and years ago! I'm talking about Benjamin Sesko dammit! He's my Dapper Dan Man and the one I've had the hots for, for quite some time as you'll know if you're a regular reader. And yesterday, just to [...]
Here was me getting all hot under the collar over Gyokeres and Sesko yesterday, whilst all along Arsenal were making their moves for a certain Martin Zubimendi behind closed doors. I should start talking about left backs. Maybe that'll be enough reverse-jinx for us to do a striker deal in the next 48 hours... The [...]
It's funny, because I do this every season, but I forget that this time of the year is the worst when it comes to the football period. If your team isn't successful, that is, because it all feels a little barren. In about a week or two's time, the euphoria from other fans has warn off [...]
Yesterday The Arsenal Women had a trophy lift session at The Emirates and I have to say, it was some really positive #content for us to watch and re-watch, after a difficult season for the Men's team. And if you think about it, it has also been difficult for the women too; they didn't start [...]
Only one place to start today, which is with The Arsenal Women, who did what I think most of us would agree was the unthinkable, by sinking Barcelona Femini. That Barca team tend to down anyone they come across, so to completely shut them out and then see the final stages over the line after [...]
So we have another one added to the list, as Saliba has been confirmed as injured for the last game of the season. The reality is that it doesn't matter, as unless City win their last game by about six goals and we lose by a two goal margin or something similar, we're most likely [...]
