A Fan’s Road To Arsenal
A guest post from Out For A Corner When people think of football, not many think of Tower Records in Piccadilly Circus, but on a cold, spring morning in 1988, it was the only place to be. Or, more accurately, it was the only place where tickets for the upcoming Littlewoods Cup Final were […]
Arsenal v The Parked Bus
A guest post from Sensational Arsenal. Three games into the premier league, we already came across two teams defending resolutely and in numbers. Pretty soon we are going to come up against the Chelsea bus too. So, how do we crack such teams that we are no doubt going to encounter frequently throughout this […]
Looking In And Out Of Arsenal’s Window
There we have it then, the window is firmly shut. Looking in through the window of summer 2014 I can see a nice collection of players have been acquired for our future entertainment. We have some genuine competition for the goalkeeping position in David Ospina. He may or may not be better than Fabianski but […]
Arsenal In Leicester
Bergkamp. The Invincibles. Special memories. It’s been a while since we have seen Leicester City and Emile Heskey. What can we expect to see? Because I am a little bit ignorant I don’t really know. They dominated the second tier last year with what looked like a settled team. So, at a fair guess they’ll […]
In Defence Of Aaron Ramsey (does he need defending?)
A guest post by Kelly Woods @kmwoods02 Aaron Ramsey had his worst game in 12 months against Everton. He tried too hard. He forced things. Yes, he scored a goal, but don’t miss the fact that his performance was poor. And speaking of goals, I’m worried that he’s publicly admitted that he set himself a […]
How Bad Were Arsenal At Everton, Really ?
I have left it a day before musing on the Everton game for the same reason I don’t tweet during matches, I find immediate appraisals tend to be knee jerk reaction and leave you looking like a right miserable Charlie. The general consensus is that we were poor, but how poor were we really? People […]
Everton And Stuff
Away games a Everton have been good fun for us football fans in recent years. I’m sure you all remember the details. As the manager said, a good measure for the Arsenal squad. Before Moysie went to OT in order to pick up his pension he would set his teams up to be less boring […]
What This Arsenal Team Really Needs
It has been a tough few years: a steady stream of sales of the club’s best players, heartbreaking losses in three Cup Finals, even the occasional challenge in the League came to nought, seemingly scuppered by brittle bones and questionable ‘mental strength’.But, after all that, in May Arsenal finally ended the years of […]
Help The Clockend Show.
This blog is about the demise of the weekly show on Arsenal Player , hosted by Adrian Clarke. Last year Adrian and his The Clockend show replaced Tom Watt and The Fans Forum. Some years ago when we had Arsenal TV the Fans Forum was two hours long. It was reduced to one hour when it […]
Arsenal’s Motion Starts Poetically.
It’s Gooner-stic, I say Sight and sounds of opening day Red army to the fray Proud, ambitious, ready to slay. While pundits babble and predict Bringing comfort to the pessimist Gooners remain optimists Full in knowledge that signings are no mist. So Palace to be the test Fully prepped but leaderless From the south they […]
