A post from Steve_I( Shh,he doesn’t know ) I can’t do anything but look forward to Monday. Let the negativistwats get on with their moaning, whining and downright miserable nonsense. We are in a position to go back to the top of the league by playing one of the other major runners in the race. […]

 Today we have a guest post by Double  Canister. Never won the European Cup, Right? Well, until 1992 teams had to win the league to enter it. My hypothesis here is to argue that apart from the bleedin’ obvious fact that yes we have not won it (and thank you koppites, for reminding us of […]

This post was a comment by foreverheady on a previous post about the City game. It deserves its own space. I thought the linesman was as much of a problem as the ref, but maybe we have to learn not to hope that tight 50/50s don’t go against us, as they always seem to. The […]

The Etihad experience & match report as City beat Arsenal 6-3 through the eyes of Demetri Loizou.(‘son of our very own Georgaki-pyrovolitis’. ) When my dad, a long time Gooner offered me the opportunity to come join him in Manchester to watch Arsenal take on City I deliberated for a while. My own team, Chesterfield […]

Well that was disappointing, to say the least. I can’t think of a single player (with the exception of Bendtner of all people) who did themselves justice. Theo took his goals well, but did little else.  He was by no means on his own. City set off like a runaway train but I felt that […]

I am really not up to this today.  Are you any day, you might well ask? I’ve been struck down with a terrible case of man-flu.   Never mind though, I’ll struggle on [Takes out onion and weeps – Ed] because I know without my expert opinions you would not know what to think. So […]

A tricky hand … The boys are off on a jaunt to Italy then. As far as I can tell, a draw or a win puts us top of the group.  A defeat by less than a 3 goal margin leaves us runners-up if BVB win in France. I am sure there are all sorts […]

Today’s piece is penned by our very own @anicoll5. In line with house policy I shall not recite the events of Sunday afternoon on the pitch as you have seen it, or heard it, or followed it on Twitter, or missed it. If the latter, my poor expression would be inadequate to describe an excellent […]

Everton this afternoon then. A good team playing well. So what? We are a great team , playing great , in our own stadium. We are stronger in every position including the dug-out. Everton will come and play football. Good, lets see how that works for them. Following yesterdays results we can go 7 points […]

You have to have some depth in your squad to rest the kind of quality we rested last night. But it’s more than just the players who took a breather, who will therefore necessarily return refreshed and stronger for their recumbent relaxation, the significance of the sheer depth and quality of the squad Arsène has […]
