A lunchtime kick off today means there's no hanging around before we get in to the football action this weekend. I kind of like that. It feels like we've had to wait for Arsenal to play of late, so to get a game in nice and early on a Saturday is pretty good for me, [...]
Arsène had his presser yesterday ahead of West Brom and you can tell that he's started to put the shields on full power right now. Even off the back of a 5-0 (yes, I know it was 'only' Lincoln, but it was a comprehensive win) victory he knew the general atmosphere at the moment isn't [...]
So yesterday the quartet of semi finalists were confirmed and as much as I'd love to see Chelski brought down a peg after the season they've had, it's still delightful to see Jose and United fans outraged at some kind of perceived injustice against them, like they haven't had cart blanche as a club for the [...]
It's still two days before the team play and quite frankly, the football couldn't come quickly enough, because it hasn't at all felt like a packed schedule so far. We've played one game in about two weeks. So I'm looking forward to seeing how we get on against Palace. Arsène gave an update on the [...]
In yesterday's match preview I said that a thumping win would be great, but after the previous couple of games, all we really needed was a win and three points. And that's exactly what we got, so I'm a relieved gooner this morning, safe in the knowledge that we at least managed to tread water [...]
Right then, lads and lasses, time to get back on the wagon after the hour that was the week before last and see if we can get back to winning ways with three points against Tony Pulis' West Brom at home today. Ig won't be easy, it certainly won't be pretty, but any jove, it [...]
It's Christmas Eve, I've already begun The Fattening, and yesterday we had Arsene give an update on the latest team news ahead of West Brom at home on Boxing Day. And after a pretty stinky time of late, it appears there was a bit of Christmas cheer to be had from the press conference, in the [...]
Normally I'd be opening today's game with 'ahh matchday, that glorious of things' or something similarly positive, ahead of a midweek trip to the Emirates. But whilst I'm happy to be getting there once again, and whilst it means my day has something to look forward to come the end of it, there's part of [...]
Where to even begin with the shower of the proverbial that we witnessed from Arsenal yesterday, eh? I mean seriously, I have no idea where to even start. Nothing went right. We played terribly. Then, even with most of the 90 minutes of tripe we had to sit through, we still get handed a lifeline [...]
Please forgive me if I end up jinxing the outcome of today's game, but this match today feels very much like the Swansea game of a few weeks ago, in which we had some very difficult moments but ended up winning comfortably away in South Wales. I'm not saying that I think we'll win today [...]
