Here we are folks. A festive match day is upon us and just as I suspected, all of that excitement ahead of this top of the table clash against Liverpool this evening, has been replaced by a nervousness. And it is a top of the table clash this evening because depending on the result today, [...]
Slightly delayed one from me today. Had the work Christmas party last night but actually feel quite alright - managed to avoid getting too plastered, but did get home late and so decided to have a lie in. But no Mikel Arteta press conference yet, so I guess I'll just have to wait and have [...]
Morning all, hope we're all good? It's back down to normality for me today following just under three week's on the other side of the world on holiday in New Zealand and although I've been quiet on here and quite quiet on social media, I've managed to watch almost all of Arsenal's football, as well [...]
So it seems we are now playing the waiting game when it comes to our Boxing Day fixture. Two games were called off yesterday, including Wolves’ match against Leeds and that means Wolves will have had a full nine days rest between their 0-0 draw against Chelski on 19th and when they play us. Hardly [...]
Well now, isn't it nice to start the week run up to Christmas knowing that whatever happens, The Arsenal will be fourth on Christmas Day. We may not stay there, we may fall away and have a shocker of a Christmas period between now and the new year, but as it stands we can smile [...]
Happy Monday to thee. Hope you're going to have a good one and if you're winding down for the Christmas period then hopefully it is a chance to start getting in to full relaxation mode as the year draws to a close. I've got a week and a day until I clock off for the [...]
Morning all, how we all doing then, eh? I have a bit of a headache this Monday morning. It's not the kind of selection headache Mikel Arteta seems to have these days (ba-dum, tsch!) but an actual headache caused by sleep depravation on Saturday evening following a rather unhealthy amount of white and red wine [...]
The big question on everybody's lips this morning: Will Freddie be in charge to oversee a glorious victory over Leeds United in the FA Cup? Of course I'm being a little flippant, especially given that we can't beat any team at the moment, let alone one winning every week. So the idea that we'll steamroll [...]
I don't know if it's because there's no football on this weekend meaning that we've had to endure that unpalatable taste of a poor performance for longer than usual, or whether it's the fact that it's the last working week before Christmas, but it really has dragged for me. It's self-inflicted though. Whenever Arsenal lose [...]
Monday's do suck sometimes, don't they? Usually when you don't feel at your fighting best and after a lovely relaxing evening with The Management, complete with a bit of booze and Christmas turkey and crackers, I find myself a little achey and tired as I begin today's travel to work. Gawd only knows how footballers [...]
