A 'Wee Northern Side' visit & reports suggest THREE new signings in January..

Morning all. Pat Rice has been awarded an MBE in the Queens New Years Honours List and Wenger is thrilled:  I am absolutely delighted because if someone deserves it, it’s Pat Rice. He had 100 per cent genuine commitment every day and you respect that when you see that from somebody, and he is someone […]

Clause in Emirates deal will put the pressure on & another 3 points scraped….

It took a soft penalty decision awarded to us and a couple turned down for Wigan to get all three points but right now, do we honestly care? Walcott didn’t dive, he just stumbled over after being gently caught from behind and as for the Wigan claims for handball, well blame the ref for that. Just as […]

Arsenal Manager Quits, David Villa linked & Spare a thought for our fans at Wigan…

Morning all, Start with today’s gossip: Arsenal are ‘exploring an audacious swoop for Barcelona striker David Villa’ according to The Daily Mail. The cunning plan is a loan until the end of the season and if all goes well, we’re going to try for a permanent deal. Apparently Villa is getting fed up with warming the bench […]

Should we trust Jack Wilshere? Time to players to stand up and be counted………

But forget all of those, what about the current players, what do they think? Surely they are some of the most important people […]

Wenger taking Div 4 side seriously but injuries stacking up…..

Are you ready to Rock n’ Roll Gooners? Because it’s back, yes, It’s the League Cup again tonight and on the menu are Bradford City, a team that Arsenal have never faced in this competition. In fact, the Bantam’s are a club who Arsenal have faced on very few occasions and only ever in three previous cup-ties which were […]

Wenger ready to bid for Ba! Squillaci, Monteiro or Angha? Normality returns to Arsenal & a mixed bag out in Greece……

Morning Gooners, After the Sun reported yesterday that Demba Ba has refused a new contract offer from Newcastle, the same paper has suggested that Wenger is ready to offer £7.5 Million for him. No, that’s not him being tight for once, that’s the players ‘get out’ clause in his current contract. The Daily Mail however, […]

100 Up for Walcott if he plays & Rugby playing side Swansea head to London!

No other place to start really, other than the BSM pre-match march which begins at 1.30pm at the Bear Roundabout’ outside The Armoury. For anyone who still doesn’t know what it’s all about, there is a link here. We all have our own view about whether it’s right or wrong to be airing the clubs dirty […]

Chelsea manager sacked! Henry coming home… again & Could we see a Change of Formation tonight? .

Morning all.. How many managers are Chelsea going to get through? A couple of losses and the owner hangs another manager out to dry. Maybe he will try and tempt Wenger across London, after all, he hasn’t got many choices left has he? My money is on Harry Redknapp replacing RDM. So now we know, […]

Walcott & Sterling swap on the cards? Pires knows but do today's squad?

Morning Gooners…. Bit of gossip from the red tops. According to The Sun, Wenger is ready to offer Liverpool Theo Walcott plus £8 million for their super-kid Raheem Sterling. I’m sure that is just The Sun playing Fantasy football transfers. The Daily Mirror are running a story in which Wenger has stressed how fed up he is […]

He also said he totally understands why Cesc Fabregas forced his move to Barcelona as having family close by makes life so much better and […]
