Starting today’s blog the night before, as I’ve got an early start tomorrow/today because of a cousin who decided a 7am tee time was an acceptable approach to a round of golf on a Saturday morning. He’s a Spurs fan too, which probably explains it: they are all completely mentally unhinged. Anyway, as I say, [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? Feeling gravy? So...this week is a week for finding out about some of our opponents in some of the cup competitions we'll be playing midweek between now and the end of the year and last night we got confirmation of the opponents we face in the League Cup at [...]
Well now, I just wasn't expecting to tune in for the end of the United v Liverpool game to see that Man United can actually play with aggression and pride. I thought those values had been stuffed away in an old locker somewhere in the ground, never to return. Yet I tuned in with about [...]
Morning folks and happy Monday with a lovely ol' start to the week. Lovely because yesterday we were treated to some hilarity in the shape of Chelsea fluffing their lines at Elland Road and have their arse handed to them by Jessie March's Leeds. Now, I realise that we are yet to play Leeds, they [...]
Football is hella fun when your team plays well. And right now, it is hella fun, I can tell you that, because confidence is simply overflowing in this Arsenal team and you and I , my friend, are the beneficiaries of that. Yesterday represented a potential banana skin, as all of the games do in [...]
Morning folks and happy match day to you. Well, hopefully it's a happy match day, because let's face it, if Arsenal lose today we'll all be grumpy as sin come full time, quite unbearable for our partners or family and generally have a crappy rest of the Saturday. So it's a 'happy match day' until [...]
Morning folks, how are we all doing today then, eh? Feeling chipper ahead of the weekend action against Bournemouth? Little 'Scotty' Parker seemed to be in good spirits, as he had his press conference yesterday and said some lovely things about Mikel Arteta and his team for this season. He talked about how he thinks [...]
Morning Gooners, welcome to a brand new week which will hopefully be lovely for us Gooners and you never know, maybe there'll be some kind of signing from nowhere. After all Edu was pictured on a Ryanair flight to Valencia this weekend post the game, so clearly he's heading out to Spain to bag himself [...]
Well now, I tell you what, if you could pick out a perfect Saturday to have as an Arsenal fan, you couldn't have done much better than what we were treated to yesterday in the heat of the August sun at the Emirates yesterday. The weather was sublime, the crowd were upbeat and excitable with [...]
Match day! Before I go in to the nuances of the game today, as well as Mikel Arteta's press conference yesterday, please allow me to indulge in a bit of smugness, having spent an hour in Alan Smith's presence last night for the Same Old Arsenal podcast yesterday evening. We talked about a wealth of [...]
