Howdy folks and welcome to Tuesday. It's funny because last night when we were chatting on the Same Old Arsenal podcast about the different stages of emotions we go through in the week leading up to a game. This was in reference to the Palace game and I admitted that when I do my musings [...]
I know there will be bigger challenges for this Arsenal team to overcome this season and I know that Crystal Palace are on a wretched run of form that sees them winless in 2023, but gosh darnit, it this crucial stage of the season this Arsenal team keep overcoming the hurdles put in front of [...]
After the three points were confirmed against Fulham last weekend, I gave a little fist pump in the air in my kitchen to myself. That felt like a big win. I immediately started thinking about this weekend. "If we can beat Palace and Leeds, then we'll be in a really good position to go for [...]
Morning Gooners, we all ok? I went out last night and hand a skin-full and my head is pounding, so please forgive me if today's blog looks a little rough around the edges; even tapping at the keyboard is painful right now ;-) We should get some kind of press conference / team news update [...]
I am going to admit to frustration and disappointment this morning. I really wanted us to go all the way to the Europa League Final. Perhaps my motivation is more from self interest than from what this Arsenal team can and should focus on, but the way I feel this morning, I don't really feel [...]
Another matchday for our boys and it's Europa League action tonight to take centre stage of our minds. I think the mindset of Arsenal fans I follow online is so fascinating with this one, you know, because there seems to be a big split between whether or not we 'go for it' and play the [...]

Having to go old school on the blog today, because the desktop version of the site seems to have gone down, so until that is up and running, I’m penning some thoughts from the iPhone, so please excuse the inevitable typos and predictive text change words in to other [...]
Morning Gooners, how we all doing? Ready for Thursday already? After that game on Sunday I am just eager for the next game and with a chance to progress in European competition at home at our grasp, I'm getting excited about the prospect. We did our business against Fulham for a tricky away game after [...]
Well now, I must confess, I didn't expect to get such a comfortable afternoon for the Arsenal players in West London yesterday, that's for sure. Fulham were a side difficult to play against, especially on their own ground, with a week off and us having travelled to Portugal to play midweek too. This felt like [...]
Arsenal released the words from Mikel Arteta for his press conference yesterday, which actually took place after the Sporting Lisbon game, so I guess all the journos were told it was under embargo until yesterday because a lot of the messaging didn't really come out about the game until the afternoon yesterday. So I guess [...]
