I’d asked in yesterday’s blog if we could quite possibly have a professional, comfortable win against Villa to give our blood pressure a rest. I’d went online and bet on a 3-0 win with Theo scoring. Perhaps I should have asked for a few other things while I was at it. It was a rare [...]

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 announced [...]

Well that was all a little bit embarrassing wasn’t it? It all seemed so routine until Nasri pulled his hamstring (meaning two to three weeks out and missing the Barca first leg). Then we just fell apart. It was all going so well. Sure, we weren’t looking perfect, we never do when we play Arshbend [...]

God my head hurts today. I’d love to say it’s the result of a massive bender, but alas, it’s just the result of dodgy genes. Pah. This is likely to be a quickie today as each keystroke is agony. Tomorrow we have the joy of Leeds arriving at the Emirates for the early kick-off live [...]

Well there really only is one story today – Barcelona in the Champions League and while you could quite easily say ‘it could only be them’ it was simply the ‘luck’ of the draw – no conspiracy theories here. So some people are terrified, some people are gagging for it, and some people are just [...]

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 [...]

Sorry I’m a bit late today, you can blame the torrential rain in Belfast and the fact that apparently motorists here have never seen rain before. Crawl, crawl. Anyways, no time for rambling, we’ve team news to be talking about ahead of tomorrow’s ‘big game’ (described as such by Jack Wilshere on Twitter – how [...]

There is nothing more I enjoy in this world than watching Arsenal win. The thing I like second most in the world is being able to say ‘told you so!.’ Regular readers of this blog will know that I have called and begged for Chesney to be given his chance. I have said he is [...]

This is all very strange isn’t it? Heading in to a Carling Cup match knowing that we are actually taking it quite seriously. It was in evidence at WHL that this had become the case although we did not know before the squad was announced that we would be going for the Carling Cup as [...]

So. City. Money vs Development. Cash vs Class. Yaya Toure’s arse vs Alex Song’s hair. Wait, that doesn’t sound right. Having played on Tuesday while City played on Thursday means that we have had two extra days to prepare. That being said, they have the ability to rotate far more than we do so I [...]
