Blimey am I not a fan of these Sunday 1.30pm kick offs. It's a ruddy pain in the derrière if I'm completely honest. After all, Sunday's should be solely for sleeping in and recovering from any said hangover that one might have. Particularly if Arsenal have won from a 3pm kick off on a Saturday. [...]
Well what have we hear? Good news and returning players from injury? Is that cause for optimism I see galloping over the horizon, heading towards us at a rate of miles per hour? Sort of, I guess, because until we win some back-to-back games, which seems as likely as a Ched Evans apology right now, [...]
Wow, we're full of exciting and wonderful Arsenal news today, aren't we? Item one on the agenda is that any player caught smoking is apparently being given the punishment of having to train with the youth team by Arsene Wenger. Woah....hold on there AW, are you sure you want to do that? After all, when [...]
Isn't it sad that the FA Cup fixture scheduling brings more of a sigh of relief when it's actually a weekend game, as opposed to a ridiculous midweek game like Everton and West Ham had to go through on Tuesday evening? I really hate those types of games. So when we were announced to be [...]
So it appears as though the club are finally shifting gears in the transfer market, with Legia Warsaw publicly announcing that they have rejected a bid from us for their highly rated youngster Krystian Bielik, no doubt in an attempt to sound out other teams and engage in a bidding war. Whether or not that [...]
So the club finally announced the Podolski to Inter deal yesterday, after he was picture in an Inter shirt, scarf, outside the ground and thanking everyone for making it happen. I have to say I did find it somewhat amusing that it isn't just the incoming announcements that we always seem to announce on the [...]
A close family bereavement enforced a bit of a blogging hiatus on me over the weekend. Somehow the loss of a loved one makes anguishing about why Arsenal aren't winning all games all of the time seem a bit irrelevant in the grand scheme of life. But 'life must go on' must be the mantra [...]
Where do you even start with a performance like yesterday? How do you dissect something that was so turgid, it doesn't matter which way you look at it, you're not going to like what you see? What I saw yesterday, the first day of 2015, was an old familiar sight that I'd hoped could be [...]
Happy New Year to you and welcome to 2015. It's a tough one to call today. Southampton away has seen us draw twice in the Premier League since they were reintroduced and one suspects that this season will probably have never been harder to beat the Saints on their own turf. Currently sitting fourth in [...]
