Yesterday's defeat of Chelski at the hands of Everton adds some more gloss to the possbility of winning the FA Cup and with United and West Ham due to play after we have lined up against Watford, the world's oldest footballing knockout competition now carries added significance, going in to today's game at The Emirates.  [...]

Happy Saturday to you super awesome people. hopefully it's one in which you can keep yourself busy, what with the whole 'no Arsenal' getting in the way n'all. For me it's one in which I've got half a day of some chores, then it's a bit of egg chasing observation with a couple of mates [...]

So here we are at the end of another working week and a weekend of FA Cup football ahead of us. Today is press conference day and whilst we got a bit of news as usual on injuries yesterday from Le Boss, he'll no doubt elaborate a little bit more this morning and give us an [...]

Wishing congestion on others and trying to enjoy the spectacle of tomorrow

What a start to a week. Post Hull I lost my wallet (complete with two Arsenal season tickets in) and spent the best part of yesterday evening searching for it to no avail. Then I head to the tube line this morning with an emergency Pay As You Go Oyster card (The Management's) only to [...]

Expect frustration at Watford, but we need to start a title run now

The one positive I will say that comes out of the international breaks that punctuate each season, is that when an Arsenal match day comes around, you learn to appreciate it more. That's how I'm feeling today, with the Watford game just hours away, knowing that soon I'll get the excited feeling of an Arsenal [...]

Dividends, desperation (Jose) and derbies (of the Watford variety)

Quite a lot to get through, after an eventful day yesterday, eh? First and foremost, the AGM and I'll make this relatively brief because a) I wasn't there, and b) it has precious little to do with what is on the pitch and more about what is happening in the boardroom. Or not happening, apparently, [...]

Rambo to find scoring form with scrappy back posters at Arsenal?

Seems I jumped the proverbial gun yesterday with regards to the end of the international break, but thankfully now we all know that  the dreaded 'interlull' is behind us after last nights matches, we can start to worry fully about who will play against Watford and what form they will come into the game on. [...]

Ox needs one form game, Gibbs needs a run and I need real football

I think it's safe to come out now, isn't it, after all the international friendlies and Euro qualifiers are done right? I took the horrendous decision to watch the majority of a disjointed and unimportant dead rubber between England and the might that is Lithuania, which is two hours of my life I'll never get [...]
