Yesterday I had a really busy day of meetings and personal appointments, so I didn't watch a single minute of football. By the sounds of it, that started off as a good idea with what Switzerland, Cameroon, Uruguay and South Korea all served up, but I've seen and heard some of the comments on the [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? I'm bloody knackered, I tell you that much, so please excuse if today's ramblings are even more incoherent than usual. Combination of cat waking me up in all hours of the morning, an early start for work, as well as some residual jet lag I think. Which is [...]
Morning folks, welcome to Tuesday and whilst it's not exactly Arsenal related, it appears as though Aston Villa are getting a little bit of an Arsenal connection as their next manager, as Unai Emery has been confirmed as their new appointment from Villareal. It's an interesting appointment and not one I would have expected and [...]
Morning Gooners, how we all doing today then? How we all feeling? I'm feeling pretty good, although I have to admit to a fair bit of frustration today, which is of course English media related. Honestly, have you ever seen a club with so many people prepared to defend whatever they do and find excuses [...]
Morning folks (just). Provocative title from me today, perhaps, but let me explain my workings. I do want to get to some of the things Mikel Arteta said yesterday in his press conference ahead of the Liverpool game, but before that I thought I'd share something that I was pondering this morning as I was [...]
I bloody hate this fixture. People that say they look forward to it, they enjoy it, pah, I don't believe you. Don't get me wrong, when Arsenal have won in this fixture in the past, it is one of the great feelings of the season and particularly in an era in which, let's be honest, [...]
They say that 'ignorance is bliss' and today let us play tribute to the Mayor of Ignorant Town, a certain former Arsenal employee, Mr Raul Sanllehi. He's been chirping in The Athletic about his time at Arsenal, now that his slunk his way back in to football with a job at Real Zaragoza, deciding that [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday. It's an odd one in the UK because the bank holiday yesterday was essentially non-existent two weeks ago, so it kind of still feels like a Monday morning. Only it isn't. It's Tuesday. But it carries that feeling of a Monday of satisfaction after the three points at the [...]
Morning folks and happy Thursday to you. Well, it would be a happy Thursday, were it a match day today, but unfortunately the match against PSV was called off, despite every other Europa League game seemingly go ahead, as well as in the Champions League. Go figure. At least we have the clarity on when the [...]
I can see that Richard Keys was doubling down on his Celebration Police narrative after the Wolves v Newcastle game. Yesterday I saw that he’d made comments about the players and the manager celebrating a 2-1 victory like it was a trophy they had secured. He was bleating on about the fact that it’s ‘only [...]
