Morning all… So the big day is finally here and Father Christmas has been and gone for another year….. Sadly, so has our challenge for the Premier League title…. But for me, today isn’t about football or ranting about the disarray Arsenal FC are in, it’s about the celebration of the birth of Jesus and being with […]

Morning all. Arsene Wenger on the defence: They should be talking, yes. Maybe they do talk but it doesn’t look like that when you look at the pictures. Of course it’s important to have someone organising. Sometimes it’s just one yard forward or backward that makes a difference. You want somebody to take the leadership […]
Morning all. Another cock-up at the weekend, another player vows it will not happen again. This time it’s Mathieu Flamini’s turn to rally the troops and tell the world, well anyone who can be bothered to read his words, that the players cannot afford to make the “stupid” mistakes which have plagued their season. This is […]
Morning all.. Ok, tongue in cheek but with a tad of seriousness thrown in if what Arsene Wenger says is true, had Liverpool been in the Champions League and we hadn’t, we may very well lost out on signing Alexis Sanchez so I guess the managers record for getting us into the big competition has […]
Morning all. Only one place to start and that’s with Alexis Sanchez. He’s 26 years old today so a big Happy Birthday to him and on this day back in 1970, Arsenal beat Man U 3-1 at Old Trafford with goals from McLintock, Graham & Kennedy.. Happy Days and a great double winning season… Well it […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger has continued to talk about Thierry Henry and his retirement from football, in particular, Arsenal. Talking to L’Equipe he said: We will organise something in his honour and I hope the France team will also give him the recognition that he deserves. We cannot just end it like this. He deserves […]
Morning all. Well, it was going to be all about the great Thierry Henry today but what is there to say that’s not already been said… What a man, what a player and what a fantastic signing by Arsene Wenger. If only Jens Lehmann hadn’t had a mad rush of blood in 2006, he’d have […]
Morning all. Typical isn’t it, yesterday evening I thought I’d be smart and write today’s post as there was little news other than our Champions League draw and then earlier today, Thierry Henry makes his big announcement.. Too late now though so tomorrow will be about the great man! Back to the draw and what […]
Morning all. One only had to tune into the Chelsea match at the weekend to witness diving at it’s best, or perhaps worst is a better word with Gary Cahill being the main contender for dive of the weekend. What a shocker yet no yellow card from yet another seemingly Chelsea supporter in charge of […]
Morning all. Sadly, it’s the ladies side who have snapped up a defender. 22 year old Jemma Rose has left the Bristol Academy and signed for Arsenal. Let’s hope Arsene Wenger snaps one up next month too! Last weekend was awful, lacklustre, lazy, schoolboy and really the worst first half of defensive play we have […]
Morning all Teams news is not good, perhaps worse than feared yesterday: Our main problems are still defensively because Laurent Koscielny (calf from Southampton match) looks like he will not be quite ready, Nacho Monreal (foot) is not back and Calum Chambers is suspended. Mikel Arteta (calf) is not ready and Theo Walcott (groin) is out. […]
Morning all. Sorry about yesterday, not sure what happened but HH crashed for most of the day. Perhaps Stan Kroenke had the Internet police on duty, hoping to prevent any negative comments about Arsenal and Arsene Wenger being made. Still, my ironing got done, the house got cleaned from top to bottom and Fido had […]
