Much More Than A Point.
It was only a point and only a single goal, but that was much better. The team looked like a team again. Ozil was the best player on the pitch, closely followed by Xhaka and then Torreira. Our midfield was all of a sudden balanced. Ozil creating 3 really good chances in the […]
The Dawn Of Arteta
Mikel Arteta reign as Arsenal’s head-coach gets under way with a trip to the Vitality Stadium to take on Bournemouth this Boxing Day. Good day all. With Arteta now in charge his immediate goal will be to get the team back to winning ways, having taken over with a dismal run of just one win […]
A Point Won.
A point is a point, as they say. I have to be honest though, Everton were awful. In the spirit of the blog , let’s look at the positives. We fielded an awfully young team and we didn’t lose. I thought David Luiz had a fine game, I feel that when he […]

Good morning campers Arsenal have qualified through the group stages in Europe for the 18th consecutive season, albeit the last two in the 2nd tier competition. Last night we managed it courtesy of the result in the other fixture and our own opponents being rather poor, although they were good enough to build […]

Are We Arsenal Supporters Or Glory Hunters?
I’ve been a Gooner for over 50 years, I really began supporting Arsenal off the back of losing two League Cup finals, 1968 & 1969, so you can see as a child I was not in it for the Glory, and to this day nothing has changed. The Glory is a happy by product of […]

It goes without […]
