Negative Narratives Blight Arsenal

A guest post from Muppet   @MuppetGooner   The story of this season so far has been that all events have conspired to support the negative narrative supported by a number of über bloggers and media commentators. You will know it well. The unbalanced team, the groundhog day scenario of competing for a top 4 place […]

Complacency, and The Results There Of !

A guest post for Tim, @foreverheady, a braver man than me. I changed my seat at half-time. Pleased with the two goal lead I paused the TV, put the children to bed, made a cup of tea and then went back into the sitting room – and sat in a different place. I knew at […]

Defining Arsenal Greatness: Alexis Or Mesut?

I made the mistake of tweeting: ” Positively Arsenal @Blackburngeorge · Nov 1 BTW, our best player is out injured.” I meant Ozil and was immediately inundated with tweets telling me how stupid I was and how Sanchez is easily our best player . Well? Is that a fact? No it’s not a fact, it’s an opinion […]

Burnley Broken Then Battered

A guest post from our resident roving reported Andrew @anicoll5   Chances are you saw the game, you have seen the headlines and digested the words of the learned and not so learned pundits in the 17 hours since referee Pawson blew the final whistle. You will have the warm glow following a contest deservedly […]

The State Of Arsenal, by a Tottenham Fan

Below is a post made by an unknown Tottenham fan on an unknown Santi Carzola fanpage. His understanding should put many Arsenal fans to shame. Sadly it wont because the ones who should read it wont bother.     “I’m as big a Tottenham fan as you’ll meet, but I can’t help feeling that if you […]

Arsenal Are Doing Well, Despite Doing Badly !

A guest post from Tim @foreverheady   A few random thoughts about where we are: mainly talking to myself, but thought I would share them. We are out of form because our collective timing is out of key: miss-hit passes that fail to find their mark have been replaced with passes which though accurate are […]

The Black Cat Battery vs. The Royal Arsenal Artillery

A guest post from our very own Finsbury. Time itself will be altered this weekend. Suddenly the early evenings will be dark. Winter is coming. And the Arsenal head to the far North, towards the wall and the very verge of Scotland for their visit to Sunderland.  What do I know of distant Sunderland? Not […]

Could I Stop Supporting Arsenal; Have YOU Stopped Already?

 “No one is bigger than the club.”  I was asked a simple and fair question on twitter some time ago by Andy Wood ‏@yorkshiregunner . “Tell me George, will you still support Arsenal when Arsene leaves?” (As people continue to misquote my reply here again  is the blog I wrote about it) Now I understand […]

Who Can I Blame For My Arsenal Misery?

Some perspective from @arsenalandrew The notorious over-emotional toxicity of Arsenal’s online support is in stark contrast to most of the support in the stadium. Whereas online, Arsenal could do no right, in the stadium, a largely ‘flat’ crowd grew increasingly despondent at the sight of a rookie referee entirely out of his depth, a willing […]
