Yesterday's result felt like yet another milestone, yet another narrative, was knocked down. On opening day it was the "tough game under the lights", after five games it was the "yeah but the teams you've played have been rubbish", but yesterday we played a good and in form team, whose fans are bullish, playing them [...]
Morning folks - hope you are all well. Before the usual match review stuff today, it is worth taking a moment to celebrate the life of Queen Elizabeth II of the UK, who died yesterday aged 96. I am certainly no royalist or major fan of the Royal Family, but she has always been a [...]
It's a particularly bitter pill to swallow this morning, when thinking about the events that unfolded at Old Trafford yesterday. once again we went up there, once again we were the better team, once again we come back with nothing. The Old Trafford league hoodoo continues and when we next get the chance to go [...]
Might be a bit of a short one today as I need to head off to London to do a spot of shopping and meet a few friends for lunch and I'm running a little late, but I wanted to pen some pre-United match thoughts on here before I toddle off. Firstly, having watched some [...]
Five out of five for our boys and whilst the 'Yeah but it's only...' brigade may point to an out of sorts Aston Villa side, there are a few facts and figures that is being ignored by those that don't have an emotional investment in The Arsenal. For example, I read a stat this morning [...]
Howdy all and hope you’re in a fine mood on this fabulous Sunday? I’m not going to mug you off here; I’m not going tell you that yesterday was the most rosiest of days for me as an Arsenal but, then again, I know you too feel the same - that was bloody uncomfortable at [...]
Football is hella fun when your team plays well. And right now, it is hella fun, I can tell you that, because confidence is simply overflowing in this Arsenal team and you and I , my friend, are the beneficiaries of that. Yesterday represented a potential banana skin, as all of the games do in [...]
Well now, I tell you what, if you could pick out a perfect Saturday to have as an Arsenal fan, you couldn't have done much better than what we were treated to yesterday in the heat of the August sun at the Emirates yesterday. The weather was sublime, the crowd were upbeat and excitable with [...]
This time last year - nearly enough (matchday one of the Premier League I mean, as the season has started early this year), I was the best man having organised a stag trip to Edinburgh. I had the Brentford game on my smartphone and I watched as an under-prepared, poorly resourced, Arsenal team stuttered and [...]
Morning morning, fellow gooners! How we all doing? Feeling chipper after that absolute mauling yesterday? I know I am. On top of the world, in fact, because if you’re going to lay down a blueprint for how a pre season should draw to a close, I’m not sure many of us would disagree that giving [...]
