It appears I must have some sort of political sway at Arsenal HQ, because after my plea for the Bielik deal to be announced, low and behold the young fella turns up on the official site as a confirmed signing. I do find it interesting that young plays - boys really - that come from [...]
I wanted to spend a little bit of time today to talk a of an unsung hero. A player who has been an almost ever-present in the Arsenal team this season, yet rarely do I take to social media and see his name mentioned. I'm sure the manager has referenced him before at some stage [...]
It's Sunday, the time of prayer in the Christian world, to which I too am offering up some prayers to the football gods for this afternoons game. I am praying for a win or even a draw, because let's face it, our chances seem slim giving our history, the form of the champions, our patchy [...]
So, Yaya's Sanogone then, eh? (I'm afraid that's the best you'll get from me first thing on a Wednesday morning) A loan move to Crystal Palace sees our much maligned young centre forward get an opportunity for more game time by playing for the guy who loves a Frenchman, Alain Pardieux.

Whether or not that [...]
So the club finally announced the Podolski to Inter deal yesterday, after he was picture in an Inter shirt, scarf, outside the ground and thanking everyone for making it happen. I have to say I did find it somewhat amusing that it isn't just the incoming announcements that we always seem to announce on the [...]
Happy New Year to you and welcome to 2015. It's a tough one to call today. Southampton away has seen us draw twice in the Premier League since they were reintroduced and one suspects that this season will probably have never been harder to beat the Saints on their own turf. Currently sitting fourth in [...]
