Morning all. Well well, Arsenal really are on a roll aren’t they as far as results go. Six on the trot I think it is now but yet another match shrew with defensive errors. One of course was a mix up between Cech and Mustafi with both leaving the ball to the other. The majority […]

Morning all. Well that was a feisty old battle at The Etihad Stadium yesterday evening. I enjoyed it as it’s great to see a bit of passion out there on the pitch. City missed the chance to be crowned champions purely because they were so wasteful in front of goal, Martin Atkinson missed a stonewall […]
Let’s face it, this has been a pretty tough season for Arsenal fans. After finishing outside the Champions League places in May, the signing of Alexandre Lacazette last summer offered some hope of improvement, but it proved a false dawn. A scrappy opening-day victory over Leicester provided a few scares, and successive defeats to Stoke […]
Morning all. As I begin to type, it’s 4-1 to Arsenal. Three cracking goals and a penalty so what’s not to be happy about so far eh. Plenty! A weak midfield, two dodgy central defenders and a goal conceded after some really poor defensive work by Xhaka, Mustafi and finally Koscielny who gave away the […]
Morning all. Ray Wilkins, great footballer, lousy pundit. England and Chelsea fans loved him, Utd fans too as he’d played for them as well as a number of other clubs. He didn’t quite make it to 100 caps for England but he was great for his country. I doubt he’d have looked for a reason […]
Morning all. It’s certainly head scratching times when it comes to writing about Arsenal. Even a quarter final Europa Cup fixture doesn’t seem to generate much interest, well, it certainly doesn’t for me. Maybe once kickoff arrives I’ll be a little more enthusiastic but I’m not holding my breath. The downhill path of the club […]
Morning all. Thirty odd thousand fans at The Emirates, a sign of how things will be for the foreseeable, a stay away protest against the manager or just Easter Sunday with family and friends busy doing other things like eating big chocolate eggs. Arsene Wenger might choose to convince himself that it was the latter […]
Morning all. Often when we pick up the newspapers in the morning, or search the internet to catch the latest headlines, it’s doom and gloom. Fatal road accidents, terminal illness, murder, beatings, you name it, it’s there in black and white and today is no different. Bill Maynard, perhaps better known latterly as ‘Greengrass’, the […]
Morning all. This year is flying by. It seems like only yesterday that the Christmas decorations were being packed up and put away in the loft for another year and now here we are today and it’s Good Friday, the start of Easter. There’s conflicting reports on the internet when it comes to Lent with […]
Morning all. Life’s a funny old thing isn’t it? There I was on Sunday, bored with flicking through the television channels looking for something to watch before The Durrells started a little while later, so I pushed the little voice programme search button and simply said Arsenal. Various options popped up, one of which was […]
Morning all. I don’t know what happened yesterday. I published this post but there was a problem as it disappeared into a big black hole. Not one quite big enough for Arsene Wenger though as he’s still at the club. Darn and double darn! Anyway, fingers crossed it works today. The women didn’t need any […]
Morning all. Good old England fans eh. Why can’t they just behave at football matches? Some of the photos which made the back pages yesterday morning were not pretty and those causing trouble and found themselves locked up in a Dutch cell for a few hours really need to wake up and smell the gravy.
