It feels weird - wrong even - to have today's blog talking about two teams that we all dislike so much. Well, one team we despise with every fibre of our being that plays in a Toilet Bowl, but another that we are growing to dislike because of who they are and what they represent. [...]
Here we go folks. The Big Weekend is amongst us and tomorrow we face off against a historical big foe in Man United, knowing that only victory gives us a slim chance of winning the Premier League. And let's be honest here, it is a 'slim' chance. I'm not trying to be deliberately negative or [...]
On my Thursday morning run today I was listening to the gents on the Arsenal Opinion podcast and my ol' mate Johnny made a statement that made me stop to do some internal maths. He said that if City drop any points in their last three games, then we will win the league. There are, [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Wednesday. It's funny because football has reached such a tense part of the season now that we're actually in it right at the end, that watching other football has kind of put me off. I almost want complete respite from the stresses of the jeopardy, even when there is nothing [...]
Morning Gooners. Happy Tuesday to you and yours. Back from my weekend away in Munich and so I was travelling when Man United were playing Palace last night and therefore I didn't get to see the absolute car crash that was their team. Honestly, they are rudderless at the moment, lurching towards the end of [...]
Well I must admit I did not expect Everton to do us any favours yesterday, so didn't bother watching the game between them and Liverpool at Goodison. It helped I was out for dinner with friends, I'll admit, but when I asked the Management to check her phone for the score (superstitious fan in me [...]
I know it's a bit of a provocative title, but sometimes needs must, boys and girls, because it just feels like where I'm at right now. It's now two days since we lost to Villa and that sobering and numbing feeling from that defeat is still gnawing away me. This wasn't where we were supposed [...]
Yesterday was not a fun day. Yesterday a big chunk of hope that we might end the wait for a league title crumbled away. Yes, we are just two points off Man City and yes, there are a few games left still to play, but we aren't up against any other team. We all know [...]
Morning folks and happy Monday to you and yours. We got an unexpected bit of good news yesterday, didn't we, eh? Honestly when I saw Liverpool go one up in the first half against an injury-hit and out of form Man United, I was tempted to just turn the TV off and go and do [...]
As I and many others predicted in the build up to this match, there would be no basketball-style game, leading to goals galore. Instead, this was every bit the chess match, played between two teams who are stylistically even matched and two managers who follow similar footballing philosophies. There was the inevitable chiding online from [...]
