Morning all. I’ve given up writing about the poor performances from referees as there’s too many to keep track of, so I’ll stick to the ones which have an impact on our fixtures. Involving both sides of course as I don’t want to come across as biased as that would make me as bad as […]

Morning all. Arsene Wenger held his press conference yesterday morning ahead of our FA Cup against clash with Notts Forest and again we’ll be without Sead Kolasinac, Nacho Monreal, Olivier Giroud, Aaron Ramsey and Laurent Koscielny. Sky Sports report that Granit Xhaka has picked up an injury too but there’s no hint on how long […]
Afternoon all. Another game, another draw, another really cheap penalty given against us. ‘Farcical’ said Arsene Wenger and who can argue that he wasn’t right? I certainly can’t. Hector Bellerin went toe to toe with Hazard, the Belgian international dropped to the floor clutching his shin and Taylor bought his cheating antics. This all took […]
Morning all. More poor officiating was on show last night as the neighbours not only opened the scoring against Swansea with a clear offside goal but just after halftime, they should have been down to ten men. I’m not suggesting Swansea would have won the match, but 35 mins against ten men with the score […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger is still an unhappy man this morning. Stoke, Watford, Man City and West Brom, all matches he cites where poor refereeing was on show and dodgy decisions made. Ours of course hit hardest as we try desperately to make up the points between us and second place but that’s because we’re […]
Morning all. Yesterday evening I sat and wrote a post about the match but decided to leave it where it is. Like you all no doubt, I’m tired of writing about how poor we play the game these days under Arsene Wenger. Robbed of two points by a poor decision from that horrid man Dean […]
Morning all. Make no mistake, I’m no Arsene Wenger supporter and haven’t been for a long time, but isn’t it nice to see another manager making the headlines for a change, especially when that man is Mourinho. He and his boring football isn’t working and now he’s lost Lukaku and Ibra through injury. He’s strikerless […]
Morning all. James Tarkowski, English, Premier League, 6’ 3” and a no nonsense centre back Burnley. 25 years old so the perfect age but annoyingly, he’s a Utd fan. Shane Duffy, 6’ 4” central defender who plays for Brighton and Northern Ireland. After a nasty injury a few years ago followed by several loans, He […]
Morning all. “It was an excellent game, end to end, but you just cannot be convinced by Arsenal.” “At times, some of their passing and movement was mesmerising, just brilliant – but at the other end you see their vulnerabilities and frailties and why they are sitting sixth in the league. No, that’s not Arsene […]
Morning all. Well that’s the Christmas festivities over for another year. I know it’s only two days but mine shot by. Regardless, I had a lovely time with family as I hope you all did too. Next comes the New Year when it’s out with the old and in with the new. If only that […]
Morning all. I don’t know about anyone else but Christmas seems to have come around quickly this year. No sooner was summer over, it’s here. I don’t think the retail trade help much either, after all, they begin filling their shelves at the earliest stage possible. But for me, today isn’t about food, drink or […]
Morning all. It’ll be strange for our players and staff this Christmas as for once, they have the day off. No football for us on Boxing Day is unusual to say the least. Wouldn’t be nice to be able to write that they deserve their break, but I’m not sure they do. No doubt they’ll […]
