The Run In

Today’s post is by PA regular, Seebs. It’s official. It’s that time of year again when with ten premier league games to go it’s THE RUN IN. On Sunday 16th of March at 16.00 we kick off not just a game, but the beginning of our march to destiny, whatever that may be. The fact […]

Munich Result Exposes Media Agenda

London, New York, Paris, Munich – everyone’s talking about Pep’s music. Except of course, they’re not, or at least the UK papers who might, just might, be expected to get behind an English club playing in Europe, aren’t.  Are Bayern a good team, a world-class outfit: well yes, but not if they are playing against […]

Arsenal Chew The Toffies

Arsenal Lost – But Don’t Give Up

“If you can keep your head …” It’s 9 am Sunday morning and I am just starting to write about the events that began to unfold some 18 hours ago.  I haven’t been able to eat or sleep and I feel like shit. That’s what football can do. Perhaps I would feel better if I […]

Same Old Stoke.

Today  a guest post from La Gooner Vida   Morning Gooners! The lads face the daunting task of being bored to death by a posse of lack-wit Neanderthals up north today. The media would have us believe that their trainer Hughes has inspired some sort of revolution at the club. I for one beg to […]
