I don't think i've ever spent as long staring at my phone in relation to an Aston Villa game in my life as I did last night. As the clock ticked in to added time it felt like the five minutes that was on offer (of which seven were played in the end...interesting...) lasted an [...]
At 3-1 the Bolton fans were chuckling to themselves with a rendition of "Johnny, Johnny Stones" to the tune of "Daddy Cool" by Boney M. At 5-1, they were singing in the rain. It's good to know that the dying embers of hostility still exist for them. For us it was an opportunity to show [...]
That was a bit more fun yesterday at the Euro's, eh? We had goals, we had drama, we had teams going for matches and not relying on own goals, penalties, boring sufferball; it was how the Euro's or any international tournament should be played. Not what we're all now used to if you're of a certain [...]
There's a fair few people on the internets and social medias today who are a little sad about the whole Benjamin Sesko stuff. I feel like there's been a little bit of 'reading between the lines' from a few journo's though and, without wanting to come across as a completely smug d*ck, I kind of [...]
Morning party people, how you doing? You all alright? Enjoying life? Enjoying the summer away from football? Yeah, me neither, with the transfer stuff started to get old now and the rumours all feeling a little stale. Outbid for Raphinha and therefore off the table and out the running. United supposedly in for Lisandro Martinez. [...]
I tell you what, after the shocking January we had on and off the pitch, I was glad to get a bit of respite from The Arsenal in early February. My frustration was palpable in my house on 1st Feb and so having a bit of time away from football - apart from blog every [...]
Morning and happy Wednesday to you wonderful people. I don't know about you but this week has absolutely flown by for me and as two big games loom on the horizon in the space of four games from tomorrow, the nerves are starting to kick in. So too is the realisation that by Monday things [...]
I had a dream last night that we went to Anfield and picked up a 1-1 draw. You know those dreams when you wake up and you're like "ahh that's great" then you realise that it never actually happened? Yeah, one of those. I don't get them very often - last time was when I [...]
Wellington, wellington, wellington. Welly, welly, welly. Wllety, wellety, wellety. Look at what transpired yesterday. The Man City Cup, brought to you by Man City and in association with Man City, this season will no longer be won by Man City, after their five year reign of terror ended with a penalty shootout against West Ham, [...]
It appears the prognosis on Xhaka's knee ligament injury was worse than we thought and the club confirmed yesterday that he'll be out for three months as a result of the damage that was done in the North London Derby. It's a bitter blow for him and a blow for us. I spoke about it [...]
