Morning all. Well that was all a bit weird wasn’t it. A strong Arsenal eleven up against what really was an average depleted Man Utd side. For the first hour, we were awful. We were second to the ball, being outfought and out thought all over the pitch and when we did get hold of the […]
Morning all. Don’t you miss those days? The days when we we faced Utd and the rivalry was immense. So much so I’d say a fixture against that lot was equally if not more feisty than playing the neighbours. Fergie v Wenger, Paddy v Keane, Keown v van Nistelrooy and Wrighty against Schmeichel and of […]
Morning all. Back in 1998 and on this very day, Arsenal beat Newcastle 2-0 at Wembley in the FA Cup Final to seal the ‘Double’ for the second time. Marc Overmars opened the scoring and Nicolas Anleka finished the Geordies off for the first time in a Cup Final having lost both previous encounters in 1932 and […]
Morning all. No doubt you all know that Santi Cazorla is a patron of the London-based youth charity Football Beyond Borders (FBB). He agreed to support FBB, which delivers a combination of football training sessions and education programmes to support young people in some of London’s most deprived estates and schools. To celebrate Cazorla joining FBB […]
Morning all. Back in 1986 and on this very day, Arsenal FC appointed George Graham as manager. I bet our goals conceded tally would be far less if he was still manager today, mind you, so would our goals scored…. Over the years the first team have suffered injuries and many of them. Some have […]
Morning all. On this day back in 1991, Francis Coquelin came into this world so a big happy birthday to him. 24 years old today. Back in 2012 on this very day, Arsenal beat WBA 3-2 away from home. We finished 3rd in the league and secured Champions League football. This game was also the last for […]
Morning all. Back in 1979 and on this very day, Arsenal beat Man Utd 3-2 to win the FA Cup – Alan Sunderland scoring a dramatic last-minute winner! We could do we the same result next Sunday, especially after last nights shocking result. A game we should have won turned out to be a game we […]
Morning all. What is he wearing? Got to love him eh….. Thierry Henry: Arsenal must sort out this injury situation. I honestly don’t know why the get so many. Arsenal would have won the title within the last four or five years but for all these injuries. Surely not with Big Ollie Thierry? Does he […]
Morning all. Dennis Bergkamp is 46 years old today so a big happy birthday to him. I wonder if he’ll ever return to Arsenal in a coaching role, I sure hope so…. Man Utd got all three points at Palace yesterday, leaving them just two points behind us and City. Our job is simple as we […]
Morning all. On this day back in 1987, Viv Anderson made his 150th and final Arsenal appearance. He was good wasn’t he…. Another Saturday arrives and no football, well not for Arsenal. Two Monday night fixtures on the trot is boring, especially without a game in mid-week but that’s what happens at this stage of the season. […]
Afternoon all. There’s an article in the Daily Cannon this morning quoting Santi Cazorla from an interview with Arsenalfantv. Does he want to stay? ‘Yes, we want to improve in the Premier League and the Champions League. I think if we play how we’ve been playing in the last 10 games then we have a great […]
Morning all. Big day here in the Uk, it’s Election day, so get down to the Polling Station and cast your vote. After all if you don’t, you can’t moan about which one or two of the posh boys get voted in… It all started on this day back in 2003. Arsenal hammered Southampton 6-1 […]
