I tried so hard to motivate myself to get up from a comfy lounger in the garden and watch the Ireland vs England match, but what with the sun being glorious and the prospect of end of season international friendlies being anything but, I just couldn't do it. There was one period - just after [...]
Right then, shall we have a little look at the forward line and give them a bit of an assessment, eh? This time last year we were all still enjoying the post-FA Cup glow, which had put a bit of a sheen on what was otherwise a season that appeared to disintegrate after such a [...]
hello there you. Are you pleased it's a Friday and not a Tuesday? I am. It means I get a bit of a lie in tomorrow. Plus my dad promised me a BBQ at his house in the evening on Saturday, so it will be a full day of rest, just got to get through [...]
I must process to you, dear friend, that when Wojciech Szczesny first started to break into the Arsenal team, I thought we had a goalkeeper for life, if not at least the next ten years. He appeared to have all of the correct attributes to make it as one of the best. He was at [...]
A little holiday away from work awaits yours truly here after today's London grind, so apologies if the timing of the blogs get a little wayward, a bit like a loose Fabregas kick into the centre of a group of players inside a penalty box I suppose. What a bit of madness that was, eh? [...]
Very quick rant: when do you ever see such an over-reaction to a player leaving a club like Steven Gerrard?

He was asked about doing transfer business early and gave the standard sort of non-committal answer about not doing early transfer business, but doing the right transfer business, which would surely be all [...]
So here we are folks, standing in the middle of metaphorical desert of football nothingness, with the oasis of Arsenal delight miles and miles away in the distance. It'll take us at least until Monday to get to it, so I hope everyone has bough provisions? I have, thanks to Arsène, who spoke at his [...]
On Sunday it appears that, post the 0-0 stalemate between the forces of good and evil, Thierry Henry took the time to make suggestions that: A) Arsenal could never win the league with Olivier Giroud B) Arsenal would need to bring at least another goalkeeper, central defender, central defensive midfielder, before they would be able [...]
It's the waiting that kills ya, I'll tell ya that much, because this working week has already dragged and it's only Wednesday.With no Arsenal on during midweek, the footballing options were limited to listening in on how the Championship is going, versus enduring the Champions League. With no Arsenal representation there, there's no way I'd [...]
