Still feeling down after Friday's result, you know. It's so frustrating because the basking in the glow of victory normally only lasts for a couple of days before you get in to starting to worry ahead of the next game. But that poor performance on Friday still has me reeling and as I said on [...]

Arsenal’s need in the wake of a vociferous Newcastle crowd

What was Thursday's objective has now been shifted to tonight, with it feeling like the season pretty much rests on what this young Arsenal team does tonight at St James' Park. With the Scum bundling their way over the line at home to Burnley with yet another penalty, it moves them two points clear of [...]

It's a little bit of a later one from me today, on account of a host of jobs i've had to do, but just before I pop out for a run I thought I'd pen some musings because it is FA Cup third round day and we've got ourselves a 5.30pm kick off on BBC [...]

Happy Sunday folks, hope you're all gravy, especially after a Saturday in which three points for the Arsenal were had? It felt like a bit of a slog though, didn't it? A win is a win is a win, but we made it feel a little bit harder than it should have been, as Newcastle [...]

It just simply wouldn't be an Arsenal result if we didn't make something harder than it should have been, would it? The overwhelming feeling from this here Gooner is one of relief, but also thanks to other results, the 1-0 victory over Newcastle looked even more juicier come 7.30pm. Defeats to Chelski and Liverpool, as [...]

Forget hyperbole of Wayne Rooney being 'back' after he scored a hat trick against an underwhelming Club Brugge yesterday evening, today is all about the Group Stage proper and finding out who we'll see rocking up at the Emirates from Seltember. We're in Pot 2, which means that we'll certainly not face Real Madrid, Porto, [...]

Wellington, wellington, wellington, how about that for a third round Capital One Cup draw for us, eh? The Spuds at their hovel of a ground. Who da thunk it?
