Happy match day all - hope we're all feeling positive ahead of a trip to the City Ground today? This is a Forest side who currently sit 17th in the table, who have lost 12 of their 21 games this season (one being a 3-0 to us at the Emirates during the disastrous Postecoglou reign), [...]
Happy Friday folks. It's a press conference one today, which means we'll get Arteta and Dyche having their say on the evening kick-off under the lights tomorrow as we travel up to the City Ground. And the nerves are starting to kick in for me, having had a week off and two cup games to [...]
Arsenal went to Stamford Bridge last night, to a Chelsea admittingly short of a fair few important players, and absolutely bossed them to take control of this League Cup two-legged semi-final. So why do I not feel completely sated this morning? I think it's probably the feeling that this tie could - and probably should [...]
It's match day, it's a cup semi-final, it's Chelsea away, and it's an opportunity to put one foot in the final with a good performance today. This will be a tough game. Both in terms of the opposition, but also on their approach, because whilst Liam Rosenior is new in post and will inevitably impart [...]
So last night we learned of our opponents in the next round of the FA Cup, with Wigan confirmed as the visitors to The Emirates in February, which brings back all kinds of memories for me. The first was that gawd-awful FA Cup semi-final in 2014. Going into it we were the favourites, we were [...]
I couldn't watch the game yesterday due to family commitments and a birthday celebration for The Management, which meant watching the game on replay and benefiting from knowing the result. It has its upside, in that you feel perfectly calm watching the game unfold, knowing that Arsenal have safely progressed and done so with plenty [...]
It's FA Cup action today for The Arsenal and after having a wee chuckle at the Tiny Totts (they were terrible in that first half so I'm glad I didn't bother with the second) yesterday evening as I was cooking, Arsenal need to get themselves a win at Fratton Park against Portsmouth. We've all spoken [...]
Let's start with the lovely ol' news that Bukayo Saka has reportedly agreed a new deal worth around £350k-per-week, depending on who you believe. What great news this is to finish a working week! It was announced yesterday via David Ornstein and a few others that pen had been put to paper on a new [...]
That was about as much fun as the weather last night. Arsenal had an opportunity to really lay down a marker against an injury-hit, beleaguered, and not really in form (despite what the ‘unbeaten run will tell you) Liverpool team. And they just didn’t take it. The opportunity was there, and no such marker was [...]
Well now. That was one heck of a successful hate-watch midweek edition, wasn’t it? The Scum lost to a last-gasp winner (and the manager tries everything, including being given an Arsenal cup and told to drink from it because they’ve ’bottled’ some of Mikel Arteta’s tactical ju-ju in there Man United can’t hold off Burnley [...]
