Happy Sunday campers - hope you guys are all doing well? No proper football until tomorrow evening, but despite the fact I thought to myself that I wouldn't bother watching Man United beat Leicester City yesterday evening, I flicked on the TV in the kitchen last night as I was cooking to see what was going [...]

Playing on Monday for The Arsenal – the good and bad news

By |2022-04-02T08:47:05+01:00April 2nd, 2022|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, gooners, Gunners, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

Morning peeps. Happy Saturday, even if it is an Arsenalless one and in my head, I can't quite work out if it is good or bad to have to wait until Monday night before we play. The bad is that by the time the weekend is done we could see the Scum level on points [...]

The Cedric wave and the Tierney unpredictability

Mikel had his press conference yesterday and of course the natural course of events is to first find out about the team news. The good is that Emile Smith Rowe is back having trained a couple of times after contracting COVID last week. The bad is there is still no sign of Tomiyasu. My biggest [...]

Glad we only have to worry about the football at The Arsenal

Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. I tested positive for COVID yesterday which is bloody annoying, because I was supposed to be at a work away day today in which I presented to the whole company, but that's now been thrown out of the window and as a result it's a day of tapping away [...]

Who’s leading this Arsenal team on the pitch?

It was a shame that Wolves couldn't at least muster a draw against West Ham yesterday, but if I'm going to look at the up side, it means a bit more daylight between us and them, with us five points clear of Wolves with two games in hand. West Ham knocked us out of fifth [...]

Arsenal’s run in does not make us favourites

By |2022-02-26T08:20:57+00:00February 26th, 2022|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, premier league|2 Comments

It's a watching brief for us Gooners this weekend, as our game against the scummy False-Positive-Victims-FC Liverpool is postponed until mid March with their involvement in the League Cup. Part of me is quite pleased about that right now, because it means no stress of being worried about what Arsenal do, about dropping points, etc. [...]

Arsenal need to build out some ‘wiggle room’

Morning folks and welcome to another week. But what a weekend from an Arsenal point of view, eh? For the last two months or so we've seen team after team have games in hand over us, been calculating the permutations of those teams around us winning their games in hand, looking at the table and [...]

Arsenal gambling on what they’ve got is a worry

Here we are then. Transfer Deadline Day. One of the most hyperbolic days in the footballing calendar and a day that TV companies like Sky utterly adore because it puts eyeballs on their products and clicks in their advertising reports. For the rest of us junkies it is a hit of morphine at a time [...]

Circling the wagons and uniting the Arsenal fanbase

A bit like The Arsenal, I took a day off yesterday from writing the blog, mainly because I was hanging and a little tired after a weekend of excess celebrating The Management's birthday. But whilst on Saturday I wrote about Arsenal stepping down off the morale high ground and how it made me feel uneasy, [...]
