It’s FA Cup weekend this weekend and whilst most of our rivals have basically been given free reign to rotate and rest key players by playing teams further down the football pyramid, the footballing gods saw fit to once again do us a dirty by having to come up against relatively strong opposition in the [...]
I’m not going to bother getting in to the stupid League Cup ball nonsense this morning. It’s simply another way to bash Mikel Arteta for answering a simple question. Meh. What I am going to get in to, is the fact that we are almost a third of the way through this January window and [...]
Well now, it appears as though we got away with one yesterday, eh? After the disappointment of the Brighton game, I think a lot of us had thought “that’s it. All over. Liverpool to canter to the title now” but here we all are, the morning after they have drawn 2-2 with what has been [...]
I was driving back from the parents' place yesterday morning, before getting on with a day of work, so didn't have time to pen some post thoughts two days after the 0-0 against Everton. What I would have said yesterday, however, was that I was still grumpy about that game. It's games like that when [...]
Morning Gooners, how we all doing, eh? I'm on me travels again today, this time heading up to Northumberland to see The Management's family for the weekend, which is good really because it coincides with this interminable international break, so I can be fully 'present' and not distracted for a solid four hours for the [...]

What a weird ol' transfer deadline day that was yesterday, eh? I am with a couple of friends and The Management in Portugal for our last day today and yesterday my mate Paul - who isn't in to football at all, was asking me about Transfer Deadline Day and why clubs leave it to the [...]
Been a bit sporadic on the compilation of Arsenal-related thoughts this week, on account of holiday in Portugal and also a little bit of time spent in Seville, as well as being pretty hungover almost every morning of waking up! But given it's Transfer Deadline Day today and there will also be a press conference from [...]
You gotta hand it to ol' Fabrizio, he finds new ways to report the same stuff, eh? Yesterday evening it was that Eddie has agreed personal terms with Forest and whilst we've known this might be in the pipeline for a few days (the old 'cleared out his box at The Emirates' picture doing the [...]
So it sounds as though we find ourselves in a position where the wheels are finally starting to turn with a couple of outgoings, as Ornstein laid on not one, but two, Ornbombs on us yesterday. The first was the noises that Eddie Nketiah is the subject of interest from Nottingham Forest and apparently they've [...]
