So there we have it, the first of what many think could be a few exits out of Arsenal Football Club. Gael Clichy signed for us back in 2003 as a young un and now here we are, eight years later and he’s left us for Manchester City and as far as I know and […]
Well, for this year at Wimbledon anyway. I was so sure Rafael Nadal would win yesterday and was pretty disappointed when he didn’t. Wasn’t the best of games though, I still wonder today what would have happened if both players had been able to play at their highest level throughout the entire match? Had they […]
Seems like our boss has been talking to a French radio station about the current transfer window…. Currently, everyone is standing still, Everyone expects everyone else to make the first move. Everyone holds on to their cards, hoping for the major transfer. Nobody blinks until late July, early August. Then we will analyse the gaps […]
Yesterday rumours gathered great pace about our possible departures.

If your reading this you are probably an Arsenal Fan, maybe a season ticket holder or even an overseas fan who supports from afar but whatever or whoever you are, you probably watch as much of the Arsenal action as anyone – whether it be live, streamed or through one of the television channels. You […]
I have always tried to be optimistic as far as The Arsenal goes but I must admit I am beginning to have a worry…. Defensive frailties were our undoing and we are in no uncertain terms in the deep stuff! Wenger and the board have stated that in this transfer window we will endeavour to […]
A lot has been written about our current Manager but what do we really know about him? Many older supporters will probably know a fair bit but for our younger supporters I thought I would take this quiet spell as a way of showing you why this popular Arsenal manager is so highly acclaimed. Arsene […]
I meet a fair few Dutch people in my job, driving in London. I like Dutch people, they have a good sense of humour, like a beer, have fantastic coffee shops and make reasonably good footballers…. I don’t think that I’d be alone among many Arsenal fans if I said I’d be very happy to […]
