Wellety, wellety, wellety - how about that from the Saudi Arabian's over the Argies yesterday, eh? That was some statement victory from the supposed whipping boys in the group, which also blows the group right open now and I think might have contributed to the absolute snooze-fest that was Mexico v Poland. I went to [...]
I have a confession to make. It is a confession that I never thought I'd ever have to acknowledge. But yesterday afternoon, it actually happened, and now I don't know what is happening with the world: I actually enjoyed watching an England match. I have trained myself to expect nothing but turgid, laborious, slow and [...]
Morning folks, how are we all doing then, eh? This weekend I've watched most of that FID+FA documentary and my word, isn't that organisation a real piece of work, eh? And as for that Qatar 2022 bid, blimey, it wasn't exactly the most convincing of tales told by the people behind that bid, that's for [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? I'm bloody knackered, I tell you that much, so please excuse if today's ramblings are even more incoherent than usual. Combination of cat waking me up in all hours of the morning, an early start for work, as well as some residual jet lag I think. Which is [...]
Yesterday I penned some thoughts about who could most benefit from the second pre season we're about to get. You can have a read of that here if you like. Then, as I was out on my run this morning, I was listening to one of the many Arsenal podcasts I tune in to when [...]
Hello, hello, hello, how are you doing today? Are you feeling chipper now that we're knocking down the doors of the North London Derby game on Saturday? I'm not. Hate this fixture more than anything else. Home or away, I hate it. The worry, the nerves, the stress, it all just builds until the moment [...]
Is there anything more mind-numbingly boring than the Monday after an international break? I'm not so sure there is. We had some of the WSL to entertain people and I've kept track of some of it, as I've mentioned, but much like youth football, or picking a 'local' team to watch, or even an overseas [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Sunday. I spent my Saturday doing all manner of jobs and then today i'm going to relax and enjoy a day of rest. I saw that the Arsenal ladies gave the Scum ladies a good ol' fashioned tonking and that's always good to hear. I've seen a couple of the [...]
Couple of days away from blogging for me over the last two; the first was because of a super-early get up to head off to an all company away day and so I didn't have the chance to, but the second - yesterday - was due in large part to the big hangover I had [...]
Morning Gooners and welcome to Friday - hope we're all feeling grand? In the UK it has somewhat unexpectantly become a bank holiday this weekend because of the Queen's funeral, which means I'm up north visiting the in-laws, looking out on to a crystal clear Northumbrian morning as I type today. It's quite peaceful. I [...]
