Why Can’t Arsene Just Spend The Money?
How hard can it be? Come on Arsene, just spend the money! You’d think from the views of some that this should be the easiest thing in football. But interesting recent remarks from ‘Swing’ in the PA comments section regarding Chelsea’s former defender David Luiz made me think further on the subject. Swing eloquently highlighted […]
Arsenal Draw Again – But That’s Not The Half Of It!
So Arsenal drop yet more points in games they should be winning. This, aside from transfer matters, was the message for many observers, of the whole weekend. And yet time and again, when Arsenal results are said to disappoint, my personal disappointment, (aside from the points that have been dropped), tends to rest heavily on […]
Escape to Victory: Highbury to Wembley and Back Again
Today’s post is by Finsbury The magic of Wembley ..? “I love the idea of Per & Laurent and the rest taking turns during half-time and the game to help dig the escape tunnel out from the dressing room (passing straight under Probert & Riley’s office, of course) out of Wembley and back to Highbury” […]
Agendas, Deceit And Lies
Today’s post is by Blackburn George It all seems so obvious … If there is a stick to beat Arsene and Arsenal with then it appears to me that there are multitudes of halfwits ready to pick it up and brandish it with a flurry. The opinions of agenda driven plebeians are picked up, […]

The next stage of the implementation by UEFA of Financial Fair Play is due to play out over the coming weeks and months – and mighty interesting it should prove, too. It’s taken what feels like an age to come into effect but the Summer […]
Whatever Happened To The Arsenal Lads?
Doing ‘a Likely Lads’; as tough today as it’s always been … Arsenal in recent years has been subjected to levels of abuse from sections of its own supporters way in excess of what might be expected for a club routinely competing in all of England’s – and Europe’s – biggest competitions. Indeed, there are […]
Birth Of A Super Club
The Emirates Stadium – the ultimate symbol of a stunning club transformation The club bashers are an odd lot. This is something that tends to be borne out if you engage in civil conversation and avoid the interaction descending into a steaming pile of swearyness. Their logic tends to be flawed, their arguments unsound and […]
That FA Cup Night Feeling – Coventry Sent To Arsenal
Today’s post is by arse_or_brain . Putting the ‘Friday’ into FA Cup . “I think he has done a remarkable job and the one thing about him is that he has been true to himself and true to his beliefs and the one thing that has been difficult for him is that I think other […]
So How Well Are Arsenal Actually Doing?
Right, that’s the suits sorted. I got a chance to talk to Arsene Wenger immediately after the most recent AFC Shareholders’ meeting in October. At the time he felt the club still needed to work harder. That was his comment in response to my fulfilling a long harboured desire to simply shake his hand and […]
