Well, we all survived the over-commercialised nonsense that is Valentine's Day, so we can get on with our lives and focus on the really important things, like how Arsenal are preparing ahead of facing off against Brentford next weekend. The good news is that it looks like Tomiyasu is back in training and that is [...]

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 [...]

Hard fought victory for the Arsenal, marred by refereeing weirdness

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 [...]

Low scoring affair as Arsenal face Wolves tonight

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 [...]

Where is The Tomiyasu? I must insist…

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 big hurdle to overcome for Arsenal against Wolves this week

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 [...]

Will Arsenal’s away form determine a top four spot?

It's Tuesday, a full three days since we were defeated against the state-funded Oil Whores, yet that defeat still stings a little bit. I guess it's partially also due to the fact that on Sunday those teams around us all picked up wins and now we're only a couple of points ahead of the Scum, [...]

COVID, injuries and refs: a little more equality and transparency needed

By |2021-12-28T09:28:15+00:00December 28th, 2021|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, injuries, premier league, Rant|0 Comments

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 [...]
