Just Like Winning A Trophy
Gooners of the world finally have something you celebrate this season. Cesc coming home ? Nope. Wenger confirming a £200m series of new player pre-contract agreements ? Nope. The entire AFC board being replaced by a mixture of ex-Arsenal legends and global corporate business leaders and marketing demi-gods ? Nope. Arsenals’ new £150m 5yr shirt sponsorship deal with Puma ? … Continue reading
Poor But Enough
QPR 0-1 Arsenal Yup, all in all a poor show from us. Theo scoring almost a replica of his goal against Man U; this time 20 seconds into the game. After that it was relatively flat. We moan when we don’t “win ugly” but yesterday I don’t think we even played well enough for it to be called ugly. We … Continue reading
‘Chesney Sent Off
Opening game Euro 2012 and our man Szczesny has been sent off against Greece, straight red in the 70 something-ish minute. Never was a pen. But thats him out of the group stages then.
Arsenal FC Hire Queens Royal Jubilee Organisers
…we haven’t, but I tell you what… Again we rumble on in the transfer wilderness and as Gazidis met with the AST last night, the feeling that we need to spend more is evermore apparent amongst the fans. Now many of the Arsenal fans reel out the same line about Usmanov and that we need him to come in and … Continue reading

Season Over For Arsenal But Now The Games Begin
So, the season is over and the pre-season begins and brings with it all the tabloid tittle tattle that slow news days do. As to how it effects us is a result of where the title resides and also the outcome of the Champions League – namely, Man Utd, Chelsea and Tottenscum. Fergie, bless his little tartan cottons; doesn’t … Continue reading

WBA 2-3 Arsenal = Phew !
Dear oh dear oh dear. Thats was almost a sickening experience watching the Arsenal today. But we came through physically unscathed. 2-3 away at West Brom means not only do we seal automatic qualification to the champions league; we finally get to celebrate St. Totteringhams Day - although its quite late this year, its still here. Right, I’m off for a … Continue reading
Arsene Wengers’ Distrust of UK Media
A few days ago I read a great translation of a French interview with Wenger, on the Arseblog site. As its been stated before, Wengers’ interactions with the press have been pretty much straight batting responses back and not really divulging too much at all. Its come a far way from the “I didn’t see it” catchphrase he championed a … Continue reading
“Arsenalisation”
I’m getting Wet ! No, not just because of the 1-6 away win over Everton on the opening day. No, not because of the 0-2 away win over Celtic in the CL Quali. No, not because of the 4-1 poking of Portsmouth in our first home match of the season. Truth is – all of these got me moist and … Continue reading

Nasri Eats Chicken Soup for 3 Months
I knew there was a reason I was late checking out the news and blogs today. Samir Nasri suffers a fractured tibia in a freak yachting accident in the Austrian mountains. The boffins with stethoscopes are guestimating a 3month stretch on the couch watching TV re-runs of The Sullivans and/or Heartbeat. Poor Sod. Mind you, that means he doesn’t have … Continue reading
