Morning all. Tomas Rosicky played a huge part in us ending up 3rd in the Premier League last season and to be honest, we have seriously missed what he brings to our side so far this campaign. On Tuesday we witnessed his ability to finish, unlike so many around him that night and we saw […]
Gossip to start with and that surrounds Bacary Sagna. News in the papers today suggest that the club have offered him £60,000 a week and a year extension to his current contract. To which he has apparently said thanks, but no thanks. His current deal ends in the summer of 2014 so no doubt he […]
Here’s a few snippets from Arsenal Chief Commercial Officer, Tom Fox, The clubs brand is “defined by more than winning”. He says: Arsenal Football Club is not only about winning. We have a large and engaged fan-base around the world who wants to feel as if they belong to the club, and want to feel […]
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, […]
Bertie Mee was the manager of Arsenal when I graduated from the odd Reserve game alongside my Father, into the Arsenal nut that I still am today, so I have seen the demise of many an Arsenal manager, not least the afore mentioned Bertie Mee.. Bertie’s was a sad decline into mediocrity. A proud man with high […]
It was all going to start in December he said…. We’d make our home advantage count he said….. Well neither happened yesterday did it? We were outplayed by a style of football we once watched OUR club play and well beaten by two goals from a bargain £2 million Spanish signing, the type of player […]
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 […]
He’s also spoken about the bumped and bruised ahead of Saturdays’ game against Swansea and apparently there are quite a few. The only serious one though was to Laurent Koscielny and he’s now out for three weeks at least with a muscular problem in his thigh. Bacary Sagna also took a bit of a knock […]
Morning all Here’s the team line up, including the timing of substitutions. Wojciech Szczesny, Per Mertesacker, Thomas Vermaelen, Bacary Sagna, Laurent Koscielny (Kieran Gibbs, 4), Aaron Ramsey (Gervinho, 80), Jack Wilshere, Mikel Arteta, Theo Walcott, Santiago Cazorla (Francis Coquelin, 91), Olivier Giroud Surprisingly, Wenger favoured Vermaelen at left back than Gibbs for this fixture, whether that was down to fitness or not, I don’t know. […]
Morning all, Firstly, according to The Metro, Wenger has confirmed he won’t be spending big despite the money coming in from the new Emirates deal!! If we get that amount of money from sponsors it is not charity, it is because the sponsors feel that we act in the right way and with the right values. […]
And no I don’t mean: Caribbean, Mauritius, Devon or somewhere in the Dominican Republic, I mean where would you like to see our club be in the Premier League after our final fixture of 2012 which is against Newcastle at The Emirates? Let’s be realistic though, as much as we’d all like us to be sat at the top, it […]
A few comments from the manager after the Aston Villa game which were directed at the idiots with a microphone: What is the thinking behind the substitution? I will not explain every decision I make. I have managed for 30 years at the top level and I have to convince you journalists I can manage […]
