Morning fellow absorbers of Arsenal-related information. I hope you are well and enjoying the countdown to Christmas. As always it's about excesses for us in the western world; from food to beverages and everything in between, but it's also about the excess of football and once again we find ourselves gorging on that with another [...]
So it's a trip to play BATE Borisov in the new year that looms for The Arsenal and having played them last season in the group stages I think we can be relatively happy with our lot there. It will mean an away trip first but if we can get the job done on their [...]
Well now, how about that for a rocking afternoon at The Emirates, eh? Where to even start on this Monday morning? I mean obviously the final result feels like the best place to start and a 4-2 win over your local rivals, when you've been told all week by pundits that they can't see how [...]
Like I said yesterday in the blog, I hate these North London Derby Days, because they just bring out the worst nerves possible before a game. As Lee Dixon once famously recounted about when he played his first one having signed from Stoke and Toby Adams had him up against a wall, "we just can't [...]
Here we are folks. Weekend is here and we're on countdown to the North London Derby against that 'orrible lot down the road. The good news is that our first team should be well rested and up for this game, having not travelled to Kiev on Thursday. Hopefully they're up for it because I think [...]

Not Arsenal though. Not this Arsenal team. I'm still actually a little angry about [...]
An early presser yesterday from the manager meant that we got some juicy updates on Arsenal a little earlier than the standard time but, let's be honest we're all so content starved following a great win last weekend and relative radio silence, that the Arsenal internet community was desperate to get something ahead of the [...]
Happy 'Middle-o-week' day to thee, my wonderful Arsenal supporting colleague, I hope yours is a good one? If you're a UK-based Arsenal fab and a season ticket holder then I guess the answer to that is dependent on whether or not you got lucky in the ballot yesterday for the cup final. By and large [...]
It's nice when sometimes your team isn't the only one imploding in front of your very eyes. So when I read that Chelski had fallen to a 4-1 defeat at Watford, I let out a little smile, because it appears they're in as much turmoil as we've been in this season. It just took them [...]
Some delayed thoughts from Saturday’s North London Derby 2-0 win against Tottenham in November 2017
