It feels like the machinations of this summer are finally starting to whirr together. Yesterday we were treated to Arsenal fans tracking flights, cab journeys and general sleuthing of where Gabriel Magalhaes was and what time he was due to arrive, but the greater volume of noise definitely ended up being about who could be [...]
Another day, another ‘step closer’ in the Gabriel Magalhaes saga, which appears to be reaching its natural conclusion. I mean, when Sky Sports are flashing the ol’ yellow ‘breaking’ banner on their website, you know they’ve been ripped off to it essentially being done. So the hope is we get some news today at some [...]
Another day, another exit, and once again sadly it’s not from the playing staff (I say ‘sadly’ because we all know we need to trim that squad rather sharpish) but from the back room. Freddie ‘we love you’ Ljungberg leaves the club to pursue his management career. I think I speak for every Arsenal fan [...]
Morning all and welcome to Saturday. It’s the last Saturday before all the football starts up again next weekend and that to me is bloody weird. I’m used to a summer in which you go through the stages of sadness that football isn’t on and end up utterly bereft before eventually it comes back and [...]
Howdy folks and guten morgen from the passenger side of a car The Management is driving to take us home from a weekend of boozing in Richmond in which we’ve seen a Willian signing, a Raul exiting, then yesterday it was the “the king is dead, long live the king” interview with Vinai Ventakatesham, who [...]
Morning all and welcome to day six of me writing a blog whilst slowly melting away due to this wondeful heatwave we have going on here in the UK. Honestly I love it; we get far too much grey and drizzly weather and unreliable summers, that when it does shine, maketh the hay, and all [...]
Morning folks and welcome to another post-FA Cup final victory day. It really is rather blissful and I think i'm going to see if I can continue to ride the crest of this particular wave for as long as possible. If it can take me well into the weekend then that'd be just grand. There's [...]
Happy Friday folks! Hope you are having a good one and that all of your weekend hopes and dreams can start here. Hopes and dreams like: Waking up without any ailments Being able to go and see family from a distance Thinking about going to the pub but not actually going to the pub Getting [...]
Happy Thursday to you and yours. Hope you're doing well and that your family is safe and loved. Hug them tightly if you can. The Arsenal news is remaining thin on the ground but we're getting dribs and drabs at the moment. David Ornstein has been talking on the Athletic podcast and in print (well, [...]
Morning folks and welcome to the middle of the week. I like to call it..... Wednesday. In two weeks time we'll be staring down the barrel of another "match day" and I'm sure you can't contain your excitement, especially with the way we're bound to have Sky and the other channels absolutely hammer the sh*t [...]
