Well here we are folks, finally after a whole summer of much anger, irritation and frustration from many Arsenal fans, after today we get to put all of the to one side and concentrate on just the football. It's the dreaded 'Transfer Deadline Day' and if I'm completely honest with you, for the last couple [...]
I sporadically tuned in last night to watch Liverpool against Bournemouth in a match that was supposed to be so comically one-sided it wouldn't seem fair. Instead I saw a hard working Bournemouth team treated to some rough luck as Liverpool scored a goal which, under the rules, should not have stood. Talking about decisions [...]
I am a completely irrational football fan. Specifically, I am a complete irrational Arsenal football fan and if I'm completely honest, after the first weekend of football I was dreading anything but a positive outcome from yesterday's game against Crystal Palace. That in itself doesn't sound too irrational to you, I'm sure, but when I [...]
Another day, another rumour of an injury spell on the sidelines, this time for poor old Tommy Rosicky. If the rumours are to be believed, then he'll need surgery on his knee and an anticipated spell in the treatment room will see him unable to take part in any games for the next two months. [...]
The official dot com site must be as excited about the return to football as us lot, because despite the fact that Arsène's presser isn't until a little later this morning, we have a veritable smorgasbord of stories to pour over before Le Boss even takes centre stage. Thankfully, they're all positive, unlike the news on [...]
Two trophies in as many weekends and a chance next weekend to make it three in a row, against the so-called unbeatable Mourinho, means we're all riding pretty high at the moment. For preseason that is. Yesterday's Emirates Cup victory and subsequent lifting of the trophy may not have had the swagger of Saturday's performance, [...]
Well how about that for a performance from the players yesterday, eh? Six goals, none in reply from Lyon and a table-topping performance at The Emirates Cup 2015. The trophy's in the bag, folks, the trophy's in the bag. Of course we all know this is a friendly and if we were to face Lyon [...]
First bit of silverware of the season sorted. Lifting the Barclays Asia Trophy is apparently a good omen for a team as both City and Chelski have clinched the pre-season friendly competition in the past, so whilst we have to take such superstitions with a pinch of salt, as this is a time in the [...]
A pre-season friendly that's actually on Sky Sports you say? Well jolly good. I think I might just...oh...yeah...right....that work thing I have to do. Dagnamit! Unless...my phone has Sky Go, so maybe, just maybe... The ever enthralling world of an Arsenal fan during pre season, eh? Probably a bit selfish of me to expect Arsenal to [...]
hello there you. Are you pleased it's a Friday and not a Tuesday? I am. It means I get a bit of a lie in tomorrow. Plus my dad promised me a BBQ at his house in the evening on Saturday, so it will be a full day of rest, just got to get through [...]
