Morning all. Another from AllezKev to finish off the tour of Australia before the next step of pre-season fixtures which begin today. Well there I was, just home from the Lambeth Country Fayre, when it hit me, those glorious Gunners were again playing a second game of footie in the land of the Antipodean Colonies. […]

Morning all. One from AllezKev today… Well there I was out in the garden sunshine, camping by a billabong, under the shade of an old coolibah tree when it hit me, those glorious Gunners were playing a game of footie in the land of the Antipodean Colonies. So I at once left my boiling billy, […]
Morning all. The Press! I kind of get it, they have a job to do, they need to earn money but boy do they stretch the imagination stakes sometimes, actually, most times. Every last detail exposed when reporting a ‘story’, some of which don’t ever take into consideration the emotions of those effected by what […]
Morning all. Arsenal just keep on giving us good news right, we’ll, that’s certainly how it appears but in reality, not a lot has changed. New coaches have come in, but the old coaches are still in pace. A couple of new signings have been made, but no one has left. Now, a new manager […]
Morning all. Good old Sky Sports and BT Sport eh! A Friday evening fixture opens the new season for us which isn’t good news for the Leicester fans planning to head for The Emirates. This has never been done before and not only is a Friday night fixture alien to the English game but usually, […]
Morning all. He’s in, he’s ours and as I’ve said many times, I’m really pleased. Signing Alexandre Lacazette is a big statement by the club and across Europe, we won’t find many players with a better goal return than our new Frenchman. I know he’s unproved in the Premier League but if a striker has […]
Morning all. Well it seems like it’s done and dusted and Arsenal FC have surpassed the record transfer fee for a player they set when signing Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid. Depending on which outlet one tends to read, Alexandre Lacazette will become an Arsenal player for anything between £44 million and £52 million but […]
Morning all. The challenge to win the Premier League crown next season looks like it’s getting tougher by the day as other clubs strengthen their squads. City have snapped up one or two, Liverpool just the one, the same as Utd but as said a few days ago, Everton are really going big this summer […]
With the forthcoming draw for the Europa League/UEFA Cup on the horizon and all it brings in terms of the added fixture congestion with Spursday/Sunday/Monday games to come, there has been some concern and even nervousness among some fans about how our squad can cope. For those of you out there who can remember the […]
Morning all. So here we are then, it’s the 1st July 2017. The transfer window is officially open, not that that’s really bothered certain clubs, certainly not Everton who are spending plenty of money, no, investing in their club. I don’t know how many players they have signed but they’ve pipped us to the signing […]
Morning all. July 1st arrives on Saturday which for many players means their contracts expire. Verbally, we’ve already agreed to sign one player in this very situation in Sead Kolasinac but once the weekend arrives, he can finally put ink to his Arsenal contract. Not only do contracts expire but the transfer window officially opens so we […]
Morning all. There’s little to chat about other than the ongoing saga of the Ozil and Sanchez contracts which this morning suggests they’ll get an extra 20% on top of whatever the club offer them, as long as we get back into the top four next season. If it was me, I’d be telling them […]
