Toughest trip of the season for Arsenal, but season-defining it is not

It's the big one today. Man City away and do you know what? I'm actually not that nervous. I know that sounds weird, maybe it'll change throughout the course of today, but I kind of feel fine about whatever happens today. I suspect it's because I'm managing my own expectations; I think we might come-a-cropper [...]

Pep and Arteta have their say on each other and the fixture schedule

Happy Saturday peeps. How we all doing? I drank a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon to myself last night, whilst making and then consuming a chilli con carne, listening and watching the two respective managers talk about the game on Sunday. Firstly, Sky Sports were all over Pep, featuring him again and again and some of [...]

Meticulous Arteta will have little time for analysis this week

Whilst basking in a North London Derby victory is plenty of fun and I intend on doing it a bit more today, there's no rest for the wicked this week, with Atalanta on Thursday and so probably Mikel and the team leaving for Italy either later today or first thing tomorrow. I wonder if they [...]

Contextualising Arsenal’s difficult start to the season

By |2024-09-02T09:18:26+01:00September 2nd, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, History, premier league|0 Comments

Morning folks. How we all doing on this Monday morning? Still reeling from the weekend? At least the defeat by The Scum and humbling United took gives a little crumb of humour to proceedings. When you can't revel in your own glory, do it in the failings of others, eh? What that does do after [...]

Here’s why the timing of fixtures DOES matter for The Arsenal

By |2024-06-19T08:50:26+01:00June 19th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, pre season, premier league|0 Comments

I was torn in between two minds yesterday, as I didn't get time to write some random musings until around 8.30am, but then gave up because whatever I thought/said would be superseded by the announcement yesterday of the fixtures that have come out. Cue all of us pouring over each game, when the 'big ticket' [...]

VAR confirmed, the ‘red cartel’ nonsense is comical and gaslighting

By |2024-06-07T08:28:10+01:00June 7th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, finances, gooners, Gunners, History|6 Comments

In the most obvious outcome possible from a gathering of the Premier League clubs to vote on certain motions, yesterday we found out that Arsenal and 18 other clubs voted to keep VAR yesterday, as Wolves lost their motion to have it scrapped, with no real surprises that everyone else wanted to keep it. I [...]

Sporting integrity must prevail

Morning all - hope you're all good? I'm back from a week-and-a-half sunning myself and whilst I haven't bothered picking up the proverbial internet online quill to pen some thoughts, I've been following all the bits and bobs that have been happening in the Arsenal and football world over the last week or so. As [...]

Feeling proud of The Arsenal today – whatever the result

Bleugh. Drank too much last night and here I sit on a Sunday morning with a mixture of sore head through too much red wine, as well as butterflies in my stomach through what will transpire later on this afternoon, for which I need not remind you. It all comes down to this. As Arsenal [...]

Arteta has hope and he has to have hope

I saw a post from somebody I follow on Twitter yesterday and they said that they simply aren't feeling the nerves ahead of Sunday. I also listened to the Arsenal Vision podcast yesterday on my run and Clive was talking about how emotionally he had just put a bit of a pin in his feelings [...]

That’s that then

Not sure how long today's ramblings will be, to be honest with you, because it feels like the inevitable has inevitably become inevitable after finding out about The Scum's defeat to City yesterday. I didn't watch the game, I'm not interested in knowing the details, I checked at halftime and then towards the end and [...]
