Last night's League Cup games passed off without too much incident, with United, City and those Tiny Totts progressing, to set up a series of mouthwatering reserve games between most of the bigger clubs left in the competition. Except us. We've got Reading at home, which you'd expect us to win and if the tickets [...]
It's really enjoyable writing a blog after almost everything has gone right in the game on the previous day. I love it. I get to praise, 'big up', congratulate and back-slap. All more preferable than the usual written form of grimacing that comes after a really poor performance. So today, I am a happy Gooner, [...]

It's a late one from me today, and probably a short one too, for I am not a well man. With about two hours worth of sleep, punctuated the whole time by needing to head to the loo, I feel like a bit of a shell of a person, so I may have to call [...]

There will inevitably be some [...]
I feel I owe you an apology. I said yesterday that the game last night didn't really mean as much as a league game and that I was pleased that I didn't have the same nervous rumblings in my stomach that I usually got. I lied. In my defence, I think I lied to myself [...]
Quick aside from today's match preview blog: The FA seeing fit to accept the mistakes of their officials, whilst rightfully banning a clear cheat? Has some sort of sense been seen at The Association's HQ? Or was it just some sort of glitch in the Matrix? Whatever it was, justice has been done and we've [...]
In an age of hyperbole, even more so with social media making everything in this world of needed 'ASAP', it's quite often important not to go too overboard when making statements in an online forum.
