Football is a heck of a lot of fun sometimes...in the end. Riddle me this: is there anything in the world more satisfying than a last minute winner? If there is then I haven't experienced it yet, because what we were treated to under the lights last night was an exhilaration that just can't be [...]
Morning Gooners and welcome to matchday 19. We're at the halfway point in the season for our lads and apart from if we were playing City today, you won't find a sterner test than playing United this afternoon, so it's time to put the game faces on and do everything we possibly can to get [...]
It's funny how when you're team is really good, you start looking at the league table, permutations and therefore as a result start taking interest in other teams' games. Last season of course I did that as we chased down top four, but I don't think I started looking so forensically at the table as [...]
Morning Gooners, how are we doing on this Tuesday morn? It's a cold one out there in London, but thankfully the warming glow of three points in the North London Derby is still keeping you insulated if you are facing some chilly weather out there. And if you're reading this from a nice warm climate [...]
Well good morning to you, fellow - very happy - Gooner! I'd pretty much downed tools on the ol' blog front on account of getting up late every morning in a beautiful tropical island and just wanting to drink cocktails and sit by the pool, but having arrived yesterday just as the game was in [...]
Good morning morning, from a wonderfully sunny Maldives, which is roasting hot too as well as being stunningly beautiful.

First and foremost - happy new year to you all. This is a slightly delayed match review post, on account of the fact that yesterday I wanted to do nothing more than lie on the sofa and slowly vegetate. But having watched the game on New Year’s Eve and seen all of the results so [...]
Morning campers and welcome to the final day of 2022, which also happens to be a match day for The Arsenal. It’s Brighton who we travel to early this New Years Eve and by gum, this feels like it’s going to be a tough old fixture to see out the year and start of the [...]
Morning folks - we all good? Now, I know we all got a little excited yesterday when Ornstein was quoted on TV yesterday evening telling us that Arsenal were interested in both Mudryk AND Joao Félix from Atletico Madrid on loan, but I’m going to just try to temper some of that excitement myself this [...]
Happy Christmas Eve folks. Hope you and family are doing well. For me it'll be a run, a walk on the beach in Alnmouth (pronounced a little differently than it's spelt!), then some form of TV watching as I consume yet more beer and rum as well as a few drops of wine at dinner. [...]
