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

Adebayor to Citeh for £25m

Good Riddance to Old Rubbish. Its been widely reported that Ade has been acting like a twat over the last year or so. Courting attention from other clubs after banging in 30 goals the season before last. The crap he came out with during the summer about how “my phone was off” while he and his agent were spreading rumours … Continue reading

Spitting Games

WOW. The news and media re-gurgitation over Phil Brown’s half-baked ill conceived post match allegations, really has whipped up a fuss about “nothing”. As I mentioned on our Twitter feed after the Hull match on Tuesday night – Phil Brown made allegations on International television, that our Arsenal captian Cesc Fabregas (who wasn’t even playing), came onto the pitch after … Continue reading

To Hull and Back Again

FA Cup against Hull at our gaff tonight. We’ve had a bit of a roughing up from them this season – early on when they came into the Premiership with their tales up and again when there was still an element of belief about them. I’d like to say that they would be thinking that their season is dropping away and … Continue reading

Andrei Arshavin – No. 23

If you haven’t seen the film yet I suggest you do so plus it’s a hell of a lot more interesting than waiting the 24hrs after the Premier League transfer deadline for official confirmation that Andrei Arshavin is now an Arsenal player. In the film, Jim Carey becomes obsessed with the number 23. The UK media already is obsessed with … Continue reading

IT WALKS and unfortunately it talks

Well, well, well. Three holes in the ground. The Arshavin panto rolls on and on and loads of rumours were stoking the fire (Dubaibury included with our c ‘n p of the windows activity). But in order to try and take a different view on the wide and wacky world of WengerTown, some sources (and I use that word in the … Continue reading
