Pre game yesterday the nerves had returned. I was in the pub talking to the lads and I had the not-very-nice feeling that there could be a banana skin being placed before us in the shape of Chelsea. They had some injuries, they were woefully out of form, they had a manager in Frank Lampard who clearly [...]
There's still lots of introspection and online discourse as to whether or not Arsenal have 'ceded the advantage' or similar such wording, in relation to the title race. The likes of Gary Neville are saying things like "I still fancy City to win it" and to be honest with you, if you take your red [...]
Am hanging a wee bit this morn folks, so go easy on me, if you please... The good news is that there's not really a lot going on. Which means I can't butcher an opinion on a breaking story in my current sorry state. I've seen a few murmurs about KT being a target for [...]
Morning folks and may I bestow unto thee a happy Saturday by playing my small part in some way, which is writing circa 1,000 words about The Arsenal. Or some sort of nonsense that at least kills a couple of minutes of your time. Do you know who probably needs to kill more time? The [...]
When you have it your own way for most of a season, winning almost every game, there are bound to be those that crop up that are frustrating. That was last night for sure. It was frustrating for many reasons, but let's not lose sight of the fact that we are: Eight points clear at [...]

It's not even 48 hours since the NLD and, strangely, I think I'm getting over it a lot quicker than I thought I would. Don't get me wrong, it stung, badly. But I suspect the fact we still have it 'in our hands' for now, as well as the fact there is a game so [...]
If you were to not watch the game but ask an Arsenal fan what would constitute an absolutely horrendous night's work in the Toilet Bowl arena, they would probably include any of the following: Early goal conceded Silly unnecessary goal or penalty conceded Red card to an Arsenal player Big defeat that could have an [...]
So it appears the latest direction of 'Arsenal irritation' travel appears to be aimed towards France and, specifically, Lyon, who last night supposedly accepted a €40million bid for Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle, with the player supposedly seeing it as an offer 'too good to turn down'. Cue the outrage from many Arsenal fans that we [...]
Happy Monday to you and yours. Hope you are doing all good. In London it's bloody freezing and as I tap away at my laptop on the tube heading in to London for a day of work, I'm wondering about how cold it was for those subs sat on the sideline who didn't get on [...]
