Morning all. Arsenal seem to have opened a can of worms, a can which never needed to be opened had Howard Webb and his officials received their own memo. In Europe, the grappling in the penalty area is managed better by referees, I think we were awarded a penalty in a Champions League game for […]

I almost felt like Russell Crowe when the final whistle blew, shouting ‘are you not entertained’ but by Jove it was a white knuckle ride. I joked with my sons at the end of the game online saying ‘now you know why I look so old’ – that’s what being an Arsenal fan does […]
Morning all. I hope you’ve all enjoyed the last seven days of basking in the defeat of Totts for a second time this season. Viktor Gyokeres and Ebe Eze must be high on confidence, just waiting to have a go at another London club this afternoon. Whether or not both start today remains to be […]
The Champions League draw takes place today which on paper, sounds interesting, exciting even but it’s not because we know who we’ll face. Atalanta or Bayer Leverkusen. In fact all the English clubs are in the same boat. Arsenal: Bayer Leverkusen or Atalanta Chelsea: Newcastle or PSG Liverpool: Atletico Madrid or Galatasaray Man City: Bodo/Glimt […]
The clamour for an answer to the Arsenal striker conundrum had pretty much rumbled on throughout most of last summers transfer window, was it going to be Benjamin Sesko or Alex Isak or maybe Eketike? Eventually, a long protracted and quite unhappy deal for them, was struck with Sporting Club of Lisboa for the […]
There’s been plenty of noise surrounding Arsenal of late, especially after our dismal collapse at Molineux. All the talk has been about how are bottling the opportunity to win the league yet again. I think much of the criticism has been deserved because we have been a bit all over the place. We’ve conceded […]
It’s Derby Day. It’s Totts v Arsenal and It’s big. They don’t like us, we don’t like them and they’ll be out to put another dent in our challenge for the league title. Who wants this more? Totts need points to avoid a relegation battle and they go into this game under yet another […]
It wasn’t that long ago when Declan Rice stood up to take a free kick against Real Madrid. He couldn’t have hit it better. Could he do it again when Arsenal were awarded a second free kick? You bet he could. It was a great night for him and Arsenal. Rice has to be up […]
Morning all. A story which has rumbled on for a while has now been confirmed by Arsenal Football Club. Bukayo Saka has signed a new long term deal worth a reported £300,000 a week. The journey that I’ve been on, from where I started to where I am now, and the journey the […]
Morning all. 2-0 up and Arsenal royally cocked things up. An early goal from Saka set us up nicely, a second from Hincapie, his first for the club, looked like that was enough to take the points but what followed was awful on the eye. Instead of controlling the game, Mikel Arteta’s players went […]
Morning all. Mansfield Town came out of the FA Cup pot for Arsenal on Monday night. The League One side have already beaten Harrogate Town, Accrington Stanley, Sheffield United and Burnley to get this far, the biggest scalp being in their last match of course. They were 1-0 down at Turf Moor at the […]
With the Brentford game fresh in our minds allied to all the on-line angst that came with it, we all really needed a bit of a pick-me-up, something to readdress the growing fan base anxiety and nothing really picks you up quite like the good old FA Cup. Bearing in mind Man City had […]
