Morning folks and welcome to Saturday - match day! - and it is, as Martin Odegaard would put it, the first of our remaining ten 'cup finals' that we must overcome if we want to be champions of this here league. This is where it gets tough. This is where every game is going to [...]
I don't know about you guys, but when I saw that Thomas Partey was an unused substitute in the game against Angola yesterday evening, my initial thought was of relief. After all, if he's made the bench, then he must be available to be used, right? I mean, otherwise if he isn't fit to play [...]
Happy Wednesday folks. How we all doing? A bit better than poor ol' Tomiyasu, who the club confirmed yesterday had undergone surgery on his knee and he will be out for the season. Such a shame. Such a big blow to such a good player, but sadly we're now in to the territory where we [...]
Howdy folks and welcome to Tuesday. It's funny because last night when we were chatting on the Same Old Arsenal podcast about the different stages of emotions we go through in the week leading up to a game. This was in reference to the Palace game and I admitted that when I do my musings [...]
Morning Gooners, we all ok? I went out last night and hand a skin-full and my head is pounding, so please forgive me if today's blog looks a little rough around the edges; even tapping at the keyboard is painful right now ;-) We should get some kind of press conference / team news update [...]

Morning folks and welcome to Wednesday. Having to go old school on the blog today, because the desktop version of the site seems to have gone down, so until that is up and running, I’m penning some thoughts from the iPhone, so please excuse the inevitable typos and predictive text change words in to other [...]
Well now, I must confess, I didn't expect to get such a comfortable afternoon for the Arsenal players in West London yesterday, that's for sure. Fulham were a side difficult to play against, especially on their own ground, with a week off and us having travelled to Portugal to play midweek too. This felt like [...]
Happy Saturday people. And it is that most rarest of things for a football fan: The home Saturday 3pm kick off. Of course it's a joke that they are not televised these days, of course it's based on an archaic rule that should have been binned years ago, but as a match going fan I [...]
Happy Friday folks. How are we all doing? Do you know, with all of the joy of the Arsenal game on Wednesday, I completely forgot that there were FA Cup games going on and as a result I completely missed that the Scum got knocked out to Sheffield United. Hahaha. I remember ready a messaged [...]
