I'm going to do my usual look at how Palace fans are feeling right now ahead of our game at the weekend, as well as a bit on their game last night against Larnaca (which I think is more famed for it's party town history than it's football team, but there you go), but before [...]
To demonstrate how fast football moves... Yesterday I woke up feeling terrible. I'd started to come down with a fever on Tuesday afternoon and by the time the Arsenal game on I was running a high temperature and got barely any sleep, going to bed straight after the game. That mean that yesterday morning I [...]
Here we go boys and girls - match day eight and the incentive is obvious and there for all to see: Top of the league by five points if we win away at Fulham. That hurdle is by no means an easy one to overcome however. indeed, we've failed to do so on our last [...]
I think we're going to get to the point in which, despite having stockpiled a billion players over the summer, this squad is soon going to start looking thin. Such is the curse with injuries we are getting, with Odegaard now rumoured to be out until after the next international break in November, that if [...]
Morning folks - happy Saturday n all that Jazz. Well, probs not for poor ol' Viktor Gyokeres, whose Sweden side were beaten 2-0 by a Granit Xhaka-fuelled SWitzerland side at home yesterday evening. I had a little look on Sofascore at how he got on and they rated him as a 7.2, so he can't [...]
I watched the Chelsea versus Liverpool game on the tube home from The Arsenal last night, then finished off the second half in my kitchen as I cooked a big juicy ribeye steak and as well as being the result we all wanted, the game itself was a proper good game of basketball football. Liverpool [...]
Matchday Saturday, a 3pm kick-off, a game in which you'd normally be expecting Arsenal to pick up all three points against a struggling West Ham side and yet, here we all are, a little nervous about history repeating itself. Mikel was asked yesterday what he felt about the fact that Arsenal had lost 50% of [...]
It's match day two of the Champions League tonight and after Liverpool dropped points to Galatasaray and the Scum also dropped points to The WIFI password, it should serve as a telling reminder that just because we are in the Best League in the World (refereeing body aside), doesn't mean we have any God-given right to [...]
Where to even start after yesterday, eh? I think I want to be broadly positive today, because when you snatch a victory from the jaws of defeat with a last minute goal in extra time, then you have to be feeling positive rather than dwell on some of the negatives. So I'm going to get [...]
We have an opportunity today. One of the most frustrating part of last season - injuries aside - was that it felt like every time an opportunity opened up for The Arsenal to claw points back on Liverpool, we didn't take it, so they ended up creeping away from us until the lead they had [...]
