Morning all. Onto a bit of fun this morning regarding our 6′ 4″ French centre-forward. In May 2008, at an age of 21, Oliver Giroud signed up for French Ligue 2 side Tours. In his first season, he made 23 league appearances and, scoring 9 goals. In his second season, he made 38 appearances and […]
Morning all. Interesting to hear the two managers speak ahead of tonights fixture, neither can praise the other high enough and to be fair, if only for events so far this season, both managers deserve such praise.

The PL returns this weekend with another away fixture against Swansea and most, if not all of the young guns who secured our next round CO Cup match against Chelsea, will be back watching.

Morning all. Before the game, Niall Quinn said in order to win the PL, sides have to win when they are playing badly. He suggested that that is where both clubs in Manchester are superior to the rest. They both have the ability to drag a victory from the jaws of defeat whereas most of […]
Morning all. Today’s fixture is against Stoke City, a side which includes that grubby thug Shawcross but our man is over it all: The memories have gone – It took a long time to get the effects of the injury out of my system. Mikel Arteta is back in the squad as we all know […]
Morning all. Got to love this, you couldn’t make it it up could you? Actually, The Daily Star did just that yesterday. The club hierarchy have reportedly highlighted Juventus legend Antonio Conte as the man who could lead the team into a new ear if Wenger decides to pull the curtain down on his 17-year-tenure […]
Morning all. Ciprian Marica, the big Romanian striker no club seems in a hurry to snap up is set to announce his next club. He’s in talks with three different clubs apparently and as we all know, we have been suggested to be one of them. In a press conference yesterday he said: I hope […]
