Here we are folks. This has felt like a ridiculously long week for me, excruciatingly so, but we've arrived at the worst day of the football calendar in my opinion: North London Derby Day - away from home. At home it's a horrible feeling of nerves, but that is tempered somewhat by our record at [...]
As I tap away at my laptop this morning, hurtling at speed on the Met Line to a day in the office, my mind is essentially doing a 'countdown to midnight a la 'The Watchmen' as we rapidly approach the North London Derby. And today my time will be taken up - in between meetings - [...]
I've got to be completely frank with you, I absolutely cannot stand the North London Derby. There are people that say they look forward to it, that it is a great opportunity to do one over the old enemy and when it comes to the post match bliss after a win I can totally understand [...]
Morning Gooners - y'all alreet? I didn't watch the Champions League Semi Final between Liverpool and Emery's Villareal, but it seems as though even Mr European Cup Competition himself - Unai Emery - could overcome this Liverpool team, who are juggernaughting their way to trophies at the moment, it seems. They better bloody do the [...]
Welcome to another week folks. It's always nice starting off a working week off the back of an Arsenal win and when it is one in which you've just beaten two of the top teams in the league, it feels all the sweeter. The sun is shining a little brighter, the sky is a little [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
