Morning all. The big clear out at Arsenal is taking place according to reports with six of the old Arsène Wenger favourites being shown the exit. Physio Colin Lewin, who’s been at the club for 23 years has been told his time is up, as has first-team coach Neil Banfield, goalkeeping specialist (cough) Gerry Peyton, […]

Morning all. If one man staying at one club for 22 years when half of that time has been pretty drab sounds bonkers, the Love Island winning a gong at the BAFTA Awards last night is even more crazy. Who votes for these things? The world has gone mad. Anyway, that 22 year reign is […]
Morning all. I know it’s his last match and all that but we’ve been there, done that, said thanks for the memories and the boys/fans have said their goodbyes at The Emirates. Ideally, a similar kind of performance to the one against Burnley is on the cards for later today but considering the way we’ve […]
Morning all. Yesterday the final pre-match press conference Arsene Wenger will ever make as Arsenal manager took place. A light hearted affair it was too by all accounts. The Frenchman looked relaxed and stress free, certainly more healthy looking than he has for a while. Good, it was clear to see that life as Arsenal […]
Morning all. Well that party atmosphere didn’t last long did it? Back to Earth with a bang yesterday evening with yet another beating away from home and if we don’t manage to win on Sunday, we’ll end the season having not won a single league game in this calendar year. Not something to be proud […]
Morning all. Time’s against me this morning so a short one today. Yeah yeah, I know, I’m short every day! Anyway, it’s Arsene Wenger’s penultimate fixture tonight against a Leicester side who are nothing like the League Champions they were not so long ago. They’ve still got a few good players, probably more but if […]
Morning all. Wasn’t that a great BH weekend? The weather glorious, The Arsenal playing in a way so reminiscent of Arsene Wenger’s early days and a great party atmosphere at The Emirates on a very special day. Arsene Wenger was as ever the perfect gentleman, his words kind to all and even threw a little […]
Morning guys. Well did you? No, not even a little droplet of a tear escaped the corner of your eye? You’re a hard lot…. The Sun shone brightly over a packed Emirates Stadium which was fitting for such a grand occasion. Players and staff of past and present had turned up to pay their respects […]
Morning all. It’s been less than a week since old Red Nose was spotted in good spirits at Old Trafford whilst handing over a retirement gift to Arsene Wenger so who’d have thought the news which broke overnight would have? Not me that’s for sure and as much I dislike the bloke for many footballing […]
Morning all. We’re in for a great week. Summer has arrived as forecasters predict the hottest BH Monday ever recorded is on its way, three matches for The Arsenal within seven days at the end of which, it’s farewell, adiós, au revoir, thank you and goodbye. The domestic season will be over, Arsene Wenger’s twenty […]
Morning all. Well that’s it then, the season is over for Arsenal. Costa didn’t end our chances of ending the season on a high, Arsenal and Arsene Wenger did. I thought leaving Mesut Ozil on the pitch when Wenger made his first and only unforced change was a missed opportunity. Jack Wilshere had tried to […]
Morning all. Still no news on our new manager but no surprise really. I’d imagine whilst we’re still in Europa, the focus will remain on being behind Arsene Wenger and the team and rightly so I guess. But for Jack Wilshere, who comes in next matters: We are still in the same position really. Not […]
