Highlights – HERE Another tight, tense and hard fought win, keeps Arsenal on track for Champion’s League qualification. Aiming for 16 seasons in a row in Europe’s premier competition, Arsenal moved up to third tonight with a little help from a referee’s assistant with selective eyesight. All the post match discussion will be about Arsenal’s [...]

I often regard clichés like ‘glorious defeat’ as nauseatingly patronising, but it would be difficult to find another way of describing Arsenal’s exit from the Champions League on Wednesday night. A 2-0 win in the Allianz Arena against Bayern Munich, when taken out of context, could genuinely be considered one the greatest results in the [...]

The day before our FA Cup replay at Leeds and it is once again quiet in Arsenal-land. The main story on Arsenal.com concerns Chesney and his continued run in the side due to Fabianski’s injury. There were some on Twitter yesterday who were wondering if Fabianski had been ‘injured’ by Arsene. By that, I don’t [...]

So here it is folks, back for the season, and as that’s a long ‘aul haul I shall be breaking it up in to two competitions. We have a mid-season ‘winner’ but now the league will continue on, so all points won up until December 31st will carry forward and the overall winner will be [...]

I don’t think many of us expected what we witnessed at St. Andrews yesterday. Sure, the team was the same as the one which had dispatched Chelsea, but this is Arsenal. We turn up to places like Birmingham and contrive to make it as difficult as we possibly can for ourselves. Not so yesterday. With [...]

Well, how did that go for you? Has the whole world and everything in it been put right with the turn of the new year? Thought not. Anyways, no time for resolutions or hangovers, we have a very tricky game away at Birmingham to concern ourselves with today so that’s what we should do. Birmingham [...]

Night’s like last night have been few and very far between for Arsenal and us Gooners in recent years. Pre-match there were nerves, but a sense of fatalism about a lot of people as well. Personally, I wasn’t nervous which was weird. I was of the mind-set that ‘what would be would be’ and had [...]

So it’s finally here, Boxing Day proper and The Arsenal match. I’m not really sure what to say about this match. We know where we are at, we know about our record against man U and Chelsea, we know about our home record, we know about our defence and we know we need to win [...]

Stoke. Too much talk about Shawcross. It’s making me feel a little bit nauseous if I’m honest, not through fear of another ‘not that kind of player’ tackle, but simply because Shawcross and his pig face makes me feel like throwing up. Not an unreasonable response really. So, poor little Ryan will need extra-security when [...]

Well, it seemed like it took an eternity to arrive, but here we are, close to kick-off with nerves-a-jangling. Or are they? It has been a long time since I last saw so many Gooners so confident before a match at Old Trafford. Sure there is the odd person panicking, fearing a defensive collapse, something [...]

Two blogs in one day? Guess I’m trying to make up for some of the days I’ve missed lately due to family commitments. There’ll be a third up later so check back for that. I’m not quite sure how much truth there is in the rumour that Almunia will be allowed to leave in January [...]

I had a dream last night (you’ll have to bear with me, I don’t usually remember them but have been having some mighty strange ones lately) that we were playing Man U away. For some reason it wasn’t being shown on TV in its entirety anywhere. At half time the coverage began and the second [...]

Everton subs: Mucha, Hibbert, Bilyaletdinov, Beckford, Gueye, Yakubu, Rodwell. Arsenal Subs: Szczesny, Rosicky, van Persie, Walcott, Denilson, Eboue, Gibbs. Referee: Howard Webb. ————————————————————————————– It’s not pretty, it’s not conducive to a healthy heart, but my word it’s certainly not dull. As the teams were announced the only thing people were really commenting on was the [...]

God almighty I hope Arsenal have shares in a health company because the number of heart attacks brought on by last night’s match must surely have been in their thousands. I can’t remember the last time I was so nervous as a match drew to a close. So often we have watched our team throw [...]

Well, here we are, patiently waiting to be scared within an inch of our lives when Arsenal take the field against a robust Wolves side later tonight. This is a side who went to Chelsea and offered the most threat of any visiting side in a long time. They are a team who were within [...]

So here it is folks, back for the season, and as that’s a long ‘aul haul I shall be breaking it up in to two competitions. We will have a mid-season ‘winner’ – so whoever is top of the league on December 31st will win a Tshirt. The league will continue on from then, so [...]
