Lady Luck was certainly on rotten form for us over the weekend, all but at Anfield that is. Man Utd rode yet another wave of good fortune against Watford at Old in the Saturday afternoon fixture that’s for sure. Yesterday in Cardiff Craig Pawson had a dreadful day. Cardiff were winning 1-0, should have been […]

It’s true though isn’t it? We never forget David Rocastle. Perhaps right now looking back at the man we all knew as Rocky, has never been more poignant. Rocky, along with so many others in The Arsenal team back then were probably never looked upon as being the greatest footballers the world has ever seen […]
We die for the team and you could see it today in every tackle, every chase down and every block. It was fantastic to see. Arsenal.com That’s what you get from a true Arsenal guy. Same with Carl Jenkinson. They might not be the best footballers in the world but what they give in terms […]
Just a few days ago I watched Sokratis and Mavropanos play some kind of game on the official website.Something to do with naming countries beginning with a particular letter which on this occasion was an A. Sokratis said America which left his fellow teammate in fits of laughter. It’s the United States of America said […]
Firstly, I hope UEFA throw the book at Montenegro, I really do. In fact, if they want to put a stop to racism, set a precedence and throw the country out of the Europe and the World Cup. Or at least ban them for five years or similar. I’m not even sure why they’re in […]
This is what being in Dubai is all about isn’t it? Relaxing, first team and Academy players bonding, having a laugh, a bit of sightseeing and enjoying the warm weather. Football too of course but without the pressure the Premier League and Europa League brings with it. I don’t recall Arsenal taking a warm weather […]
Morning guys. Life can be hectic at times, I’m having one of those times so a new post each day is unlikely. You’ve gathered that eh. There’s not much going anyway really, other than international fixtures and the only reason I check those is to see if we’ve suffered any more injuries. Arsenal are in […]
Afternoon guys. Football is boring during a two week break isn’t it? I have absolutely no enthusiasm for international football, certainly not an England team full of Toots, Utd and City players. I don’t even know when England are playing, let alone who which I never thought would be the case. Gone are the days […]
Morning all. Monchi was coming to Arsenal. We knew that because the red tops back pages told us. However, they were wrong, they’re often wrong yet still we think ‘this one feels right.’ Ok, I say we, I guess I mean me. It made sense though re Monchi. Arsenal have to be smart with their […]
Morning all. I watched Wolves take on Man Utd last night at Molineux. They’re a good side. Organised, quick, play with width and they’re tough. A tad cynical too some might say, especially against Pogba. I thought they were excellent and totally deserved their 2-1 victory which booked a place in the FA Cup semi […]
Morning all. Arsenal needed a miracle last night, or that’s how it seemed. After all, no club, let alone an English club had overturned a 3-1 losing score line in the Europa League knockout stages since Fulham back in 2009/10. A statistic used by the media to dampen our chances. Hopes too no doubt. The […]
Morning all. I’d imagine the Rennes camp won’t be a happy one. Alexandre Lacazette has had his UEFA ban reduced so therefore he’s back in the squad for tonights crucial Europa fixture. The Frenchman creates chances, he works hard and personally, I think he’s crucial to this Arsenal team. His conversion rate could be a […]
