Morning folks. Hope you’re enjoying your Arsenal-free weekend? Actually, that’s wrong, because yesterday the Women’s team beat Spurs in a cup game that was shown on BBC 2 and I have to say, I rather enjoyed it, although I suspect that’s because it was an opportunity for us to smash them so that’s always fun. [...]
This is going to be a fun blog to write today, because The Arsenal, we won the bloody cup! I am a happy man. Last season I felt broken after that Europa League final. It really hit me hard and had knock in effects this season, even affecting my ability to become optimistic and hopeful [...]
I don't really know in which direction to go with for today's Friday musings. I feel like it's a little to early to go full match preview and start talking about the game tomorrow and, as I've already talked about how I'm feeling and how nervous I am, as well as how many weird nervous [...]
Happy Wednesday folks, as we rapidly approach the 'Sliding Doors' moment that is our FA Cup Final on Saturday, given the possible outcomes we could face. Win and there's a little more cash in the coffers and an opportunity to play European Football next season. Lose and we stare down the barrel of the no [...]
Why do I feel like this might be a long week? Last night Ben, Steve and I recorded our penultimate 'Suburbs' podcast on GunnersTown and aside from the fact that we were all nervously laughing about how bad we were against Watford and Villa, the fact that an FA Cup Final looms on the horizon [...]
There's a couple of things on my mind this morning, as this season finally drags it's sorry arse into closing, thank gawd, which I think is a sentiment all Arsenal fans can get behind. The kids against Watford? In my mind this is an obvious 'yes', but I am a child of the 80s and [...]
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 [...]
This time three years ago I had just woken up. The weather report said it was going to be a glorious day and the sun was starting to poke through the blackout blinds of my Velux windows in mine and the Management's bedroom. I'd gone to bed a little later than a usual school night [...]
Morning folks, brought to you today from the office in my house, as my business took the pre-emptive measure yesterday to have everybody home-based for the foreseeable future. It makes sense, but having worked in London for many years and being in the office yesterday, I can tell you that there was not a lot [...]
On Saturday morning I was uber positive about Arsenal getting the result and all three points against Sheffield United at home. I thought that despite injuries, suspensions and recent misfortune on VAR, we'd manage to grab ourselves some precious points on our own turf. Unfortunately I hadn't bargained on the fact that the footballing gods [...]
