That was a big, BIG, result last night for The Arsenal. Make no mistake about it, it was hard fought, hard earned and even with a fair dose of perceived injustice for us, that felt like it could potentially have a bearing on our season. If somehow we manage to keep our best players on [...]
Match day - I'd almost forgotten what they felt like! How about you? And how are you feeling about this particular match day? Positive? Apprehensive? Just glad to have something football-related to talk about? Yep, me too. All of the above. But as I think I've already said this week (I never bother re-reading my [...]
How are you feeling this morning? I mean, generally, of course, I like to keep up to date with how you're doing but more specifically how are you feeling about The Arsenal? Are you feeling excited like it's the start of a new season all over again? Or are you a bit like me in [...]
Just over 48 hours to go until our season starts up again and whilst I don't have the same excitement as we all do when the season starts proper for the first time in August every year, there is a little bit of nervous excitement that resides within me this morning. The final preparations are [...]
A second Arsenal-less weekend passes us by and I think that whilst many of us were feeling a little relief at a bit of time away from The Arsenal after the frustrating draw followed by what felt like an even more frustrating transfer deadline day, this week represents opportunity, with our first game in over [...]

There's nothing more irritating to a football fan than a perceived lack of transparency and equity in the game. As Arsenal fans we have felt it with situations like the Godfrey stamp on Tomiyasu, or the McArther boot of Saka in the Palace game at The Emirates. I have spoken of that feeling of a [...]
Some days writing about The Arsenal feels like a proper chore. I've been - broadly speaking - writing about Arsenal for 13 years and so it has become habitual, which means I really do have to drag my carcass to the laptop and at this time of the year with over-indulgence a daily occurrence, it [...]
So it seems we are now playing the waiting game when it comes to our Boxing Day fixture. Two games were called off yesterday, including Wolves’ match against Leeds and that means Wolves will have had a full nine days rest between their 0-0 draw against Chelski on 19th and when they play us. Hardly [...]
Lots of ‘maybes’ going on right now. But do Arsenal have the money to get all the recent speculation on players done?
