Happy match day folks. A midweek match day in the premier League. And what an opportunity we have that sits before us. An opportunity to go five points clear at the top. An opportunity for revenge against a side that beat us just a few short weeks ago. An opportunity for us to start saying [...]
Happy Match day folks! Is it happy though? Do you every REALLY enjoy matchday? As I mentioned on my blog yesterday, I did a stadium tour yesterday, which was pretty awesome because The Management had sorted me out a VIP Legends tour, which meant I was shown around by Lee Dixon and Nigel Mitchell, who [...]
Morning Gooners, how we all doing this Monday morn? Good? Last night I did the Sane Old Arsenal podcast and we talked about the emotions of last week, as well as the importance of the win. Then this morning, as I was brushing my teeth and scrolling through Twitter, I saw a tweet saying we had eight [...]
Life comes at you fast. And football comes at you faster. Bear with me on this today - it might be a long ol' blog, because there's so much to unpick from yesterday and the last week in general. One week ago I was sat here tapping away at my computer, penning some thoughts about [...]
Cards on the table here. I am feeling rather worried about tonight. The opponents we face are formidable and just like whenever we play United at Old Trafford it doesn't seem to matter if we're great - because we lose (last season's game at the Emirates), we match them - because we lose (the FA [...]
Another frustrating performance sees Arsenal drop points and by the time we get to the end of this weekend’s fixtures, it’ll be just three points and a game in hand between Arsenal and Man City. This is a City team who we keep hearing ‘aren’t quite the same’, ‘has something missing’, etc, etc. yet they [...]
Morning Gooners, hope you're all grand and feeling chipper ahead of what I think will be a very tough match at the Emirates against Brentford today, who are in form and unbeaten in nine games. They've had a few draws during that run, but it also dates back to an away victory over Man City [...]
Morning fellow Gooners, how we all doing? I know for everybody time moves at a different pace; for some people this week is probably dragging on, for others - like me - it is absolutely speeding by. I can't believe it's Wednesday today and before you know it we're going to be knocking down the [...]
Wellety, wellety, wellety. Welly, welly, welly. Wellington, wellington, wellington. It appears as though the rules around Financial Fair Play that we all thought were largely irrelevant are, in fact, looked and and reviewed by the Premier League. Yesterday's announcement that Man City have allegedly breached 101 different Premier League rules - from failing to disclose [...]
All things considered, I find myself surprisingly happy about the football at the end of this weekend, after The Scum did us a favour and beat Man City to ensure that our five point lead at the top of the league remains in tact. And I was happy that they won yesterday. And I don't [...]
