Morning folks and welcome to Match Day! It's the most wonderful time, of the week... But also it can be the most nail biting time of the week and what with us already losing some players to injury, the Arsenal fanbase is going full Calculus to try to work out how we are going to [...]
Starting today’s blog the night before, as I’ve got an early start tomorrow/today because of a cousin who decided a 7am tee time was an acceptable approach to a round of golf on a Saturday morning. He’s a Spurs fan too, which probably explains it: they are all completely mentally unhinged. Anyway, as I say, [...]
Morning folks and happy match day to you. Well, hopefully it's a happy match day, because let's face it, if Arsenal lose today we'll all be grumpy as sin come full time, quite unbearable for our partners or family and generally have a crappy rest of the Saturday. So it's a 'happy match day' until [...]
Morning folks, how are we all doing today then, eh? Feeling chipper ahead of the weekend action against Bournemouth? Little 'Scotty' Parker seemed to be in good spirits, as he had his press conference yesterday and said some lovely things about Mikel Arteta and his team for this season. He talked about how he thinks [...]
Match day! Before I go in to the nuances of the game today, as well as Mikel Arteta's press conference yesterday, please allow me to indulge in a bit of smugness, having spent an hour in Alan Smith's presence last night for the Same Old Arsenal podcast yesterday evening. We talked about a wealth of [...]
Here we go then folks! Strap yourself in because pre season is officially done and dusted and tonight, for the second season in a row, we are first up on the Friday night football billing as we travel to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. In the game last season it was shuffled to a Monday [...]
Morning Gooners and welcome to Saturday matchday. Well, it kind of is, of sorts, as The Arsenal play at home to Sevilla in our final friendly before the new season starts in six days and it'll be our final look at the team that will lock horns with the Eagles for the Friday Night Football [...]
Good morning Gooners and welcome to Saturday! We are on less than two weeks and counting until the season proper and tonight the lads conclude the US tour with a game against those scummers Chelsea. This is a Chelsea side buoyed by the arrival of Raheem Sterling, who i'd expect to get some minutes tonight, [...]
What was Thursday's objective has now been shifted to tonight, with it feeling like the season pretty much rests on what this young Arsenal team does tonight at St James' Park. With the Scum bundling their way over the line at home to Burnley with yet another penalty, it moves them two points clear of [...]
Here we are folks. This has felt like a ridiculously long week for me, excruciatingly so, but we've arrived at the worst day of the football calendar in my opinion: North London Derby Day - away from home. At home it's a horrible feeling of nerves, but that is tempered somewhat by our record at [...]
