It's Wednesday. We still have five full days before the game at home against Chelsea. But this morning I went for a run and listened to another podcast about the North London Derby. I'm liking this. We have loads of time still to absorb as much of the post-NLD content as possible. I still have [...]
With a full week off from football for those Arsenal players, this week must feel like quite the blessing, it has to be said. If you want to understand the importance of finishing in the top eight of the Champions League, it's this moment of time we're in right now, and you could see why [...]
What should we talk about today folks? More of the North London Derby, you say? Oh well, go on then, seeing as you asked so nicely... I want to start with a convo we had on the Same Old Arsenal pod last night as we were re-living the loveliness of Sunday's Hammering of Them. Well, actually, [...]
Was travelling back from South Africa to Blighty yesterday, so didn't get to pen any thoughts in the wake of that FA Cup exit to a United side who - like a few before them this season - basically scored with the one chance they really fashioned. And with the games coming thick and fast, [...]
I've been listening to a song recently by Becky Hill called "I could get used to this". Three North London Derby away wins in three seasons for The Arsenal. I definitely could get used to this. I said pre game yesterday and in the days leading up to this that I hate this game in [...]
Happy North London Derby Saturday folks. Well, I say 'happy', but when it's away to them, it's never really happy is it? We hate them, they hate us and aside from going to the Toilet Bowl two season's in a row and getting a win, that place has been a very unhappy hunting ground in the last [...]
On Saturday I said that Riccardo should be on the first flight back to London after the knock he sustained on Friday night playing for Italy. That wish has been granted, with Fabrizio Romano confirming that they didn't want to take any risks with him and that's why he won't be playing in their game [...]
Football does everything to you. At halftime I went up to our bedroom where The Management was packing away some clothes and I said "that was bloody brilliant". I was beaming from ear-to-ear and she sagely said to me "remember, it's only half time, and we were at Newcastle on that fateful day". I nodded, [...]
Here we are boys and girls. This is it. The worst and single most terrifying game of the Premier League season if you're an Arsenal fan. I hate this fixture so much. I was listening to a podcast yesterday on my run where one of the guests said the one at our home ground is [...]
The countdown commences and yesterday it was the opportunity for both managers to take to their respective press rooms to respond to questions from the press. As usual Arteta didn't really give up much on the team news and approach, but you wouldn't really ecpect him to because: He hasn't done that all season anyway. [...]
