Yesterday I wrote about the Newcastle takeover as it was about to happen and then later on in the day we saw the confirmation that one of the richest 'consortiums' in the world had bought Newcastle. So here we go again. Another sports washing exercise (it entirely IS that despite what Amanda Staveley said in [...]

Morning folks and welcome to another working week. I can smile knowing that there are Tottenham fans that were crowing just a month ago that are sad this morning, but behind that smile is the very real worry that they'll actually bother showing up against us next Sunday, as opposed to what went on yesterday [...]

It's hard to avoid the two major footballing bits of news that broke yesterday evening, even though they aren't Arsenal related. Let's start with the Messi stuff. Barcelona are clearly reaping what they sow with the news that they cannot re-sign Messi, even on reduced wages, because their own mismanagement has resulted in them needing [...]

T-minus nine days and counting (if you count today) until the kick off to the new season and, as it stands, we're looking at a VERY familiar line up to the one that led us to two consecutive eighth places over the last couple of seasons. That's not going to get too many Arsenal fans [...]

In the early hours of this morning the kitten woke me up because he decided he needed some attention. So as I rubbed his head and slowly drifted back off to sleep, caught in that half world between proper slumber and being awake, my mind wandered in to this alternate world a bit like Back [...]

We're another Monday closer to the Premier League kick off boys and girls, with this week's current noises from an Arsenal perspective being the eventual signing of Ben White from Brighton, who is expected to undertake his medical on Wednesday and sign for us by the time we play Chelski at The Emirates in the [...]

So it looks like the wheels are finally turning when it comes to Arsenal's transfer business. Yesterday evening, as the weekend beckoned, we got the social media call from The Ornacle that Arsenal had agreed a deal to sign Ben White from Brighton for roughly around £50million or thereabouts.
