There's not many of you who will probably know this, but on my Dad's side of the family there is an army of West Ham fans, with my Dad having been brought up in Stratford and his family all dating back to Whitechapel and the surrounding areas of East London. My brother chose to support [...]
Happy Saturday gooners, hope all is well in your respective worlds? As you'd expect it's a quiet one in the Arsenal universe, with the English footballing eyes all on United versus City today. Personally I'm not sure I'll bother watching; it's a cup final between two teams that I don't like very much, so why [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Friday. It's the first footballess Friday of the summer and I'm still in that weird zone whereby the old season is sill fresh in my mind, so I'm still in a "kind of ready for the summer and a bit of a rest from the stress of watching" vibe. It [...]
'Tis the season to be...... ....Worried about every single transfer rumour that gets banded about, apparently, and I am by no means an exception it seems.

So the final press conference of the season was done yesterday, coinciding with the launch of the new home kit for next season, in which the club released a bunch of new social media and press about it to generate plenty of online chatter. On the kit, personally, I might give it a miss next [...]
Morning folks and welcome to the last Friday of the season. My plan for this weekend is to try not to labour myself too much in thinking about 'what could have been', but Mikel Arteta will take to the press room at London Colney for the last time this season and he'll no doubt have [...]
Morning folks - a happy Thursday to thee. Hope we're all good? There was a good interview by Arteta on the official site yesterday that is worth a check in on. He's clearly gearing up on a big summer and called on the club to do a 'reset' before we go again next season. I [...]
I didn't get around to penning some thoughts yesterday because I was at the hospital for a check up on a dicky wrist, but in the evening last night the guys and I chewed the fat on the Same Old Arsenal pod in which we discussed the Nottingham Forest game, which I found really hard [...]
