Morning all. Two good results for the British sides on Thursday. England huffed and puffed their way to a 2-1 victory over Wales thanks to the subs Jamie Vardy and Daniel Sturridge and Northern Ireland notched up an unexpected 2-0 victory over Ukraine. Credit has to go to Roy Hodgson, who unlike our own manager, […]

Morning all. There’s been a few odd results at the Euros so far. England only managing to earn a point from their match against Russia is up there with the biggest of surprises but Iceland achieving the same result against Portugal was a big shock. A country which consists of just 320 thousand people, managed to put an […]
Morning all. AllezKev has popped up with a cracker for today, so enjoy. If the European championships have shown us anything so far, besides how overrated and over-hyped international football is, it’s that many of the players who are continually linked to Arsenal in multi million pound deals, are really quite ordinary and certainly not […]
Morning all John Stones has been talking about the toughest player he’s faced and I was quite surprised to read what he said. The English defender has been up against the likes Sergio Aguero and Luis Suarez in recent years but it’s Ollie he rates as being the most difficult to defend against: In an […]
Morning all. Football is a funny old game. Bastian Schweinsteiger, who has endured a tough season in the Premier League popped up with Germany’s second goal last night having come on from the bench. Mesut Ozil, who according to reports, didn’t have the best of games, was yet again the provider for the goal. Before then, Shkodran […]
Morning all. The England fans have been making the wrong headlines but as the days go by, more and more it seems that they are the victims rather than the perpetrators… I’m sure there’s a few who aren’t free from blame but the Marseille locals are certainly winding our boys up when darkness falls. Things […]
Morning all. What a peach of a goal that was from Payet last night. Just as it looked like France would drop two points on the opening day of the Euros, up popped the little Frenchman with a stunning strike from distance to win the game. See, that’s what can happen Arsene when players are […]
Morning all. And so it begins…. England fans have arrived in France ahead of tomorrows match against Russia and the trouble has already begun. French Police had to use tear gas to stop a bunch of thugs who had a spat with locals last night. Why do they do it? It’s embarrassing and wrong. ‘ISIS […]
Morning all. If the back pages are right this morning, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is heading to Manchester City. I’m not surprised really because that’s what Pep does. He goes for the so-called best in attempt to win anything and everything on offer and we all knew the City owners would give him a bottomless pot to spend from. […]
Morning all. It’s simple really isn’t it, Jamie Vardy either wants to move to Arsenal or he doesn’t and if it’s the latter then so what, it’s his choice. Leicester plucked him from Conference League side Fleetwood Town four years ago, they gave him a chance and that’s why he is where he is right […]
Morning all. Wouldn’t you just loved to have been a fly on the wall, or on the seat, sat quietly listening to the words exchanged between David Dein and Arsene Wenger whilst they watched England play Portugal last Friday night? I would, I seriously would. The man who supported the arrival of Dennis Bergkamp and […]
Morning all. So I’ve gone from thinking is Vardy really the best Arsenal could get this summer, to believing that yes, perhaps he is. Certainly for just £20 million, a figure which would have been £30 million had we not qualified for the Champions League. So when the stories come out about Utd and Liverpool […]
