Well now, that turned out to be a lovely ol' weekend of football we've just had, didn't it? It may not have been the most exciting game that we engaged with on Saturday night, but given how serenely we went about collecting our away points at Fulham, it was much preferred over the kamikaze way [...]

Sometimes football can feel like a slog. Like some kind of grind. Something you just have to endure. Sometimes it feels like it goes on forever. "This game feels like it's been going on for four hours" The Management said to me on around 84 minutes. Arsenal had huffed and puffed their way through a [...]

I think we're going to get to the point in which, despite having stockpiled a billion players over the summer, this squad is soon going to start looking thin.

The Arsenal Women provided the dosage of Arsenal football for many Gooners yesterday, albeit through the lens of a somewhat underwhelming 1-0 win over Brighton at home I hear. I say that mainly because I was out and about so couldn't watch the game, but I kept track on my phone and with Chelsea already [...]

How we all doing? Surviving the Interlull so far? I've been alright, actually, thanks for asking. I filled my day yesterday with 'other stuff' and didn't even switch on Sky Sports once for an extended watch of something.
