VAR (again), KSE (again) and the NLD (again)

I'll not labour the VAR point for the third day in a row, but really, it now seems to have upped the intensity in which it has become totally farcical hasn't it? Last night Jon Moss - a horrendous ref as it is - decided that a United played stamping on an opponent inside their [...]

Well now, they've finally lost it at the Premier League and in trying to pump in crowd noise via the red button when the season restarts, we're going to have come to the last desperate grabs by the broadcasters to protect their 'product'. Selfishly I hope it bombs. That's because I'm one of the people [...]

Auba’s message is as confusing as ever, but Arsenal’s financial situation is more so

This morning I logged on to my Arsenal online account on the official website and asked for my cashback refund on my season ticket today. It gave me an odd sense of sadness and guilt for some reason. I think that's because in the back of my mind I was thinking about the thousands of [...]

No money at Arsenal and swap deals are even less likely

Morning folks and happy Sunday to thee. If you're reading this in the UK then it's a bank holiday tomorrow, which turns today into a sort of pseud-Saturday, which is always lovely. Think we're due to get a bit of sunshine too, so hopefully I'll be able to sit out in the garden and slowly [...]

Aubameyang to PSG has me going all amateur accountant

I feel a bit dirty this morning. Not physically dirty, but mentally dirty, because I went on the hunt for some Arsenal content this morning and started clicking on transfer-related links from the click baitey gutter press. It was pretty, it wasn't fun, I didn't enjoy it and so the foray into the murky world [...]

The devil’s in the detail for Arsenal wage cut

Happy Easter Mondy y'all. Hope your Easter Sunday was as fun as you can make it. We had decent weather in West London so I managed to get out for a walk, before things got a bit tropical with a thunderstorm and lightning display, which worked out ok as The Management and I went full [...]

Football kits, memories and costs – something’s gotta give

Morning folks. Well, here you have it, it's a lockdown in the UK which means no more going outside at all unless you're exercising. I have a supermarket - a big one - opposite me and already this morning I've seen people queuing to get themselves inside the store to buy their essentials. Strap yourselves [...]

Auba’s contract length was wrong; why signing Willian doesn’t make sense

If Saturday’s results - including The Arsenal’s - were a positive day for us, then yesterday’s were the opposite, as Everton rolled over and let Chelski blow raspberries on their bellies, whilst Man City played the possession-based game of how to be toothless against A United side who had their number early on in the [...]
