Maybe it's weird and irrational, but this World Cup hasn't even started yet, and all I want to happen is for our Arsenal boys to come home. Perhaps this feeling was triggered by the Jurrien Timber news, which I spoke about yesterday, or maybe it was the news from Tommy Tuchel that Bukayo Saka is [...]
I didn't blog yesterday, as I didn't have time, because I was on my way to the Emirates to film a documentary a mate of mine is making. But when I was on my way back, listening to a few podcasts, I was thinking to myself, "I wonder when the transfer silly season will start [...]
I went for a walk with The Management last night. We talked a little bit about how long this feeling of the 'good vibes' can go on for. I said a little while longer, but it does feel as though the 'party vibes' are starting to subside now. I still walked through Uxbridge yesterday and [...]
I didn't blog yesterday about the Champions League. I figured that yesterday was a day of celebration, and I didn't really want it sullied by talking about the performance, the highs and lows, etc, etc. There will be another time for that, I'm sure, so today I want to focus on the parade yesterday. I [...]
Yesterday afternoon/evening, there was a flurry of articles that were released interviewing Josh Kroenke, as the co-chairman of Arsenal, to discuss the journey that the club has been on since he and his father became majority stakeholders at The Arsenal. I myself read the Telegraph one by Sam Dean (my dad has an account so [...]
After a big win, I usually say things like "let the basking continue" or thereabouts. If we beat a Chelsea, or a Liverpool, City, etc - you feel like you can bathe in the radiant glow of victory. Even though they have been a tragic side this season, beating the Scum in the North London [...]
Happy Sunday to you and yours and everyone who is celebrating this most special of days: Coronation Day. Today, those Arsenal players will take to the pitch for the last time this season in the Premier League; by the time the final whistle goes, they will be lifting the Premier League title. The name has [...]
It's so weird to think that until yesterday, we hadn't heard a peep from Mikel Arteta. The man who has spent the most time of anybody associated with the 'process' under the greatest scrutiny hadn't been seen or heard of (that I can see) until yesterday's press conference and media day ahead of the Champions [...]
Yesterday was about joy. It was about the feeling. What it meant after so long. We did a 'vibes' pod on the Same Old Arsenal after work that leaned into that. I got some literal 'receipts' from my drawers to illustrate a point about all of those rival fans and pundits that called us bottlers [...]
I don't think any of us, deep down, thought that yesterday's victory over Burnley would be the absolute drubbing that we wanted. Sure, Burnley are crap, sure, they're relegated and have little to play for, but this Arsenal team seems to be masters of making life difficult. And so it proved yesterday. And yet, in [...]
