Morning folks. Happy Tuesday. I hope you and yours are keeping well. I have woken up this morning in a good mood. Is it because I have no meetings today and so can just get through my 'to do' list without much interruption? Or could it be because it's payday? Maybe. But mostly it is [...]

I like the world a lot more when Arsenal do the winning. It is way more fun. And even though yesterday's game - like the Southampton game - had plenty of parts that weren't a lot of fun to watch at times, I have to say the satisfaction by the end was very enjoyable. It's [...]

Howdy folks and a happy matchday to thee. It’s another Sunday game for us but it’s time to get ‘up for the cup’ as we face off against Sheffield United in our 697th away match in a row... This was not a happy stomping ground earlier in the season and in fact our record there [...]

Time for an Arsenal reboot – post match Brighton thoughts

Blimey. Where do we even start this morning? What an utter car crash is going on at the club and unfortunately for Mikel, even his driving skills can’t rectify what is a completely broken team. Almost ‘literally’ given that we’ve probably lost Leno for the season - maybe beyond - now. Neil Maupay telling the [...]

Yo peeps, y'all super psyched for another match day? Like London buses, eh? You wait ages for one and then a second rocks up. And with possibly the only up side of this particular period of our football supporting lives, those of us who are in the UK will actually get to WATCH a 3pm [...]

Luiz loses the plot but Arteta has more problems than that

If you were to tell somebody to write a script that embodied the current Arsenal team, then play out that script in the form of a football match, it would resemble something very similar to what we witnessed last night with the 3-0 defeat at the Etihad. It had all of the component parts: Injuries [...]

Man City preview: How will Arteta react to City’s obvious threat?

A match day blog. How about that then. I've almost forgotten what one of those looks like. But here we are a mere 12 or so hours away from the resumption of this Premier League season and even though we're playing City, even though we're probably losing tonight, I'm still excited. My expectations have been [...]

Morning folks and happy Friday! In some ways it's potentially the best day of the week - all the promise of the weekend lies ahead of you and we are on a downward slope hurtling towards the restart and some Arsenal action on Wednesday. And we're bringing a new podcast to you as well, as [...]

Happy Thursday to you and yours. Hope you're doing well and that your family is safe and loved. Hug them tightly if you can. The Arsenal news is remaining thin on the ground but we're getting dribs and drabs at the moment. David Ornstein has been talking on the Athletic podcast and in print (well, [...]
