Happy FA Cup third round Saturday folks. It's a shame really, because the third round weekend used to be one of the more fun weekends. You used to get yourself a home or away tie against another team you usually don't play against, there would be tonnes of football on all the time (well, compared [...]
With Arsenal having essentially a week to, as Declan Rice put it, 'reset' ahead of their next game, I am wondering what the mood will be like after back-to-back defeats. Will the players feel as down as we all were after those results? How well can they compartmentalise them and give a reaction? How exactly [...]
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 [...]
I was going to talk about some of the players who are on international duty, how I am praying for their safe return, having a little look at how far they are travelling over the next few days and then working out who I thought might be the one we need to keep a closest [...]
Tis' an odd feeling indeed to view an FA Cup defeat with so little despair, but as I write this morning I feel oddly fine about the fact that we went out by an odd goal to Manchester City at the Etihad last night. What is also odd, however, is that looking at my Twitter [...]
Matchday it is and I have to tell you, rather than the usual trepidation I feel ahead of a massive game, I am more excited for this one. Honestly, I really am! I think it is because - as I've said all week - this is priority number three on our list and regardless of [...]
Morning morning Gooners, hope you’re all feeling fan-dabby-dozy on this here Thursday morn? Todays blog is coming to you from inside a BA aircraft, as we take a wee short trip up to Northumberland for The Management’s family birthday dinner on Saturday night. Annoyingly, it means that I can’t make my way up to the [...]
Morning gooners, how we all doing today then, eh? Counting down until Friday's showdown with City? Can I let you in on a little secret? I'm actually not that worried about this game on Friday at the Etihad. That is not out of some misplaced arrogance that we're going to get a result, but rather [...]
Morning folks and happy Tuesday to you and yours. If you're a regular reader of these ramblings then you'll know that I tend to err on the side of caution when it comes to The Arsenal. That's why this season I've very much tried to keep my feet on the ground when it comes to [...]
Good morning morning, from a wonderfully sunny Maldives, which is roasting hot too as well as being stunningly beautiful. With all this beauty around me there’s clearly only one thing on my mind, which is: I wonder whether Emile Smith Rowe is fit enough to start this evening? You can take the Gooner out of [...]
