After reading we had agreed a deal in principle for Cost Rican Joel Campbell yesterday it seems another Premier League club has nipped in and offered a bit more for him and the parents of the player are now having a re-think. It’s reported that a meeting was taking place yesterday evening and a decision […]

Boy am I glad we did…….. I don’t know if anyone else saw the programme on ESPN yesterday about footballing legends, they covered a few players during the day but of course there was only one half hour tribute programme that made me reach for the sky plus remote and press the record button. Dennis […]
He’ll spend if need be he says! Does he think we don’t need players and that he now has his best ever squad yet again? Are we in for yet more of the same comments from the last few years? ‘We’re a young team getting better’ ……. Maybe we will see an improvement from some players […]
I get the impression that some supporters are not over impressed about Arsene Wenger and the clubs pay structure that’s in place, so I thought I would write a bit about our situation and see how most Gooners feel. First I will go over a few things that have been said recently. We were on […]
Ok tongue in cheek but I’m just happy the pre-season is underway and the new Premier League season is just around the corner. The only downside to this time in the year is for us British folk, the summer will be over before we know it and it won’t be long until the snoods and […]
No, there is too much discords and fault-lines within the team to get rid of Wenger this season. No matter how much I detest him, he is the ideal person to pull Arsenal out of the pits he dug himself in the aftermath of 2007/08 season. It is his “Last Chance Saloon” to blend this […]
How I hate the papers but how do we avoid them? Quotes from Wenger, Robin van Persie to name just two have again fed the red tops a story to sensationalise. Comments made by Fergie certainly don’t help our cause do they? The Sun report that Robin has said this: Every team is buying quality […]
Speaking soon after arriving in Kuala Lumpur, Arsene Wenger has confirmed that Gervinho is now officially an Arsenal player. What happened to the days of see the new players paraded in their new club shirt in front of the cameras?? Anyway, let’s not be fooled by our new man’s name… 😉 Gervais Yao Kouassi is […]
There comes a time when you sit down to write a post and you realise that the team you support have decided to leave it to the last-minute before they enter the transfer window, so once again good news is not forthcoming. How I would like to inform you of defenders joining by the bucket […]
I look at most things in football through my Arsenal tinted spectacles and I am I suppose, as biased as any other football fan. Fans of other clubs may think that the Press and Media give their club a hard time. Well I know from years of experience that Arsenal definitely are given a hard […]
Wojciech Tomasz Szczesny – who is looking more and more likely to start the new season with the number shirt and gloves cannot be trusted and here is the proof: Whilst all our other players are captured doing a bit of wight training, poor old Chesney is restricted to just a ‘pole’ 😉 Wonder if […]
This transfer window as well as the last, has been really getting me down. Arsenal’s Public Relations Department has been a sad embarrassment to all loyal Arsenal supporters. I don’t know how you all feel but I for one am totally peed off with how fans are being treated. I thought the idea of a […]
