Morning folks. Hmm. That was a...frustrating....evening, methinks. In the immediate aftermath when I was annoyed that we'd lost to an RC Lens side that brought a decent level of press and a fanbase who were obviously super 'up for it' as a night in the Champions League that they hadn't had for 21 years (I [...]
Here we are at Match day again, as this busy period hots up, just as we're getting updates from Arteta on how many players are not available for the next game! He was in front of the press yesterday and at first it didn't sound too great a prognosis on the players who would travel [...]
What a way to start off a day - with bloody COVID. Well, at least Arsenal are away this weekend and so there is at least that up side that I'm not going to miss going to a game this weekend. It's scuppers a few socialising plans I have but such is life. I move [...]
Here we are. The second worst fixture of the football calendar, from my perspective, with the away North London Derby easily being the worst. Despite the fact we have a good record at home, despite the fact some of my best memories are from NLD's of years gone by, I still hate the tension ahead [...]
I had a stinking hangover yesterday after a company all-day conference on Thursday and so wasn't quite in the right frame of mind to do anything, let alone blog, but I'm back and feeling refershed this morning and what a good job too, because there is so much to talk about ahead of the North [...]
Well that was like rolling back the years last night, wasn't it? What I mean by that is that it was Arsenal back in the Champions League, the music blaring, the light show, but also, the kind of performance we used to routinely take for granted. That felt like the kind of game that we [...]
Howdy Gooners, how we all doing today? It's a pretty grey and grim looking one in London at the moment; almost as if the decision has been made that "that's it. You've had your little taste of summer and now I'm going to remind you just where in the world you live" or something like [...]
Morning peeps. Happy Saturday to you and yours. Hope you guys are all good. It's going to be a scorcher this weekend and so after today's brain dump I'll be heading out to the garden to fire up the paddling pool I reckon! Come 2pm there will be a beached whale of a Suburban Gooner [...]
Happy Friday Gooners. It's one of those weird Friday's where we have ourselves some words from the manager, but we don't actually play this weekend, instead having to wait until Monday night before our match week two begins. In some ways for me personally that's a good thing. I'm flying off to Berlin tonight for [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? I didn't get around to penning any thoughts yesterday about the game, on account of the stinking hangover, followed by having the parents over and then trying to trudge my way around a golf course first thing yesterday, so I thought today I'd reflect a little on the weekend's [...]
