Last night a chap came to my house to sort out mine and the missus' wills. He and I got chatting about England and he wanted to make it back home in time for the match at 7.45pm. He asked if I was going to watch it and I told him I would rather head [...]
Honestly, have you ever seen as much fuss being made, as the whole 'Wayne Rooney dropped' saga that's being played out in the media. I don't remember any other captain getting the same level of treatment and attention when they were no longer England captain. It's just, well, weird if you ask me. He's 30 [...]
We're still stuck here. Stuck in the midsts of an international break and this right now is the worst possible part of it. In the first week of these dreaded things, there are a few Arsenal-related bits to chew on, but also the weekend as a distraction, but by the time the Monday hits us [...]
I must say that this season, Theo Walcott has done a bang up job in proving some of his doubters thus far, hasn't he? He's improved his overall game, is looking the player we should have seen six years ago and when you read stories like this you can only be pleased that we have a [...]
Yo, how goes it, on this fine Monday? Well, it's fine in England because we have a bank holiday and in my part of the world the sun is shining. It's also shining in the world of Arsenal. We're still able to bask in the warming glow of three points and after the manager confirmed [...]
Having had a long weekend of over-endulgence, coupled with going in to mourning over the now barren spell in which the Euro's finished and I find myself with no more football to watch for at least another month, I've decided to get back on to the blog and compile some thoughts on a Tuesday morn. [...]
Howdy howdy fellow Gooners, hopefully you're enjoying what has been of your Saturday so far. Can I make a bit of a confession? I seem to be one of the few people on the planet who finds the whole Iceland hand slapping chant a little bit awkward and uncomfortable, when done by anyone else other [...]
Watching Germany last night had a very familiar feel to it, as an Arsenal fan, I must say. Plenty of possession, control of the ball in the most part, finding it difficult to break down the opposition, then when you do you come across a 'keeper who decides he's going to have a 'worldie'. So [...]
It's amazing what little actually goes on, football-wise, in the summer months and. Now that the number of games in the Euros is reduced to four to be played tonight, tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday. Yesterday was almost completely wiped out for me through illness, as I slept for most of the day, but it was [...]
Happy Friday friend. Hopefully you are looking forward to the weekend? I had a moment of weakness yesterday whilst watching Portugal against Poland. I thought "imagine if Lewandowski decided he didn't want to play in England and City, Chelski and United had all played their cards, leaving us open to going for him" and for [...]
