Poor old Abou Diaby. Released by Arsenal as of the end of June, his has been a career that could have promised so much, yet because of a North Eastern based call centre yob, was smashed in to as many pieces as his ankle was after Dan Smith made his horrible tackle all those years [...]

Glass half empty or full?

Thank some sort of deity that it's Friday. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I've had a shocking week - Arsenal result aside - I've just had enough of the proverbial stuff thrown at me work-wise that I'll be grateful for a few days off.  Plus the league have deemed it acceptable for us [...]

The real ballot, some squad rotation and babies with beretta's

Regardless of where any bodies political allegiances lie after the UK general election, for a big chunk of Arsenal fans, they'd probably have given up voting rights for the most important ballot success this week: the FA Cup Final ticket allocation allowance today. Good luck to all of you who are in it to win [...]

The joke of a Monday trip to Hull; the joke of Arsène having 'mellowed'

The only positive that exists about an away trip to Hull on a Monday night, is that it gives a Bank Holiday Monday the opportunity to have some excitement in its life, rather than be a day of catching up with chores and the like. That is it, because for those that are going to [...]

Sorry Thierry. You're wrong.

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 [...]

Arsène's happy, we're happy, Mesut's great (Bobby says so)

What a glorious day I have awoken to in my London suburb. The sun is shining, The Arsenal are riding the crest of a form-inspiring run, Arsène has the pick of the sweet shop with his selection choices ahead of our trip to Burnley.Even Koscienly might be back for the game. Laurent Koscienly who limped [...]

Gutter press boredom and Aaron's interesting self-assessment

What's all this talk about Jack Wilshere then, eh? As I trudged my way home from work yesterday evening, stopping only momentarily to offer a cursory nod of thanks to the free newspaper dispenserer, I noticed that the back pages were partially awash with talk about Wilshere possibly facing an exit from Arsenal with Juventus, Man [...]

Whilst trying to treadmill my consumed daily calories off yesterday lunchtime, I listened to the excellent Arsecast Extra from Monday and aside from the usual humour from the two hosts, there was one interesting question that a listener posed. It was one in which was a toughie to be asked on the spot, asking whether or [...]

Unwelcome interruptions and welcome opponents

Well folks, here we are, we've wandered knowingly into an international break and there's no Arsenal until Easter. Nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada. It's bloody hard going at times like this. Especially when it feels like it's been so long since one of these inconveniences has come around. From August to December there seemed to be one [...]

With the Crystal Palace game about 30 hours away, all of the focus turns back towards the Premier League today with Le Boss' press conference ahead of the trip to Selhurst Park. We've already had an injury update from the manager, confirming that Ramsey is three days in to a three week rehab programme, as [...]
