A guest post from @anicoll5   Good morning from a sunny and mild Norfolk morning. Very pleasant. A fixture we had all marked in our diary has finally arrived, and for that I am thankful. Reading the media this week, and dipping into the frantic noise that makes up the sporting social media, I was […]

So that’s it, we’ve lost him. The best of the best, ZimPaul has passed, aged just 56. I honestly don’t know what to say or how to say it. Paul was so great with words it seems to me that the least he deserve is someone better than me to pay tribute to him. He […]

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 […]

A guest post by Double Canister (stolen from the comments section)   All I heard last night from leaving the stadium to the pubs was whispers and guesses slowly becoming cast iron established facts as the pints went down and the tweets and blogs self referenced each other. ‘ 1-4,1-4 formation ain’t work in’ ‘Alexis […]

 A guest post by Seebs  @arse_or_brain Apparently, according to many ARSENAL fans on twitter, our 3-0 win away at Villa was just a blip and we will soon be back to losing ways. Quite how despondent people can be after a good win to a team having only conceded one goal in a good start […]

Great, so I’m a genius again … I watched the game on a Spanish stream. All I could make out were the players’ names.  This was quite an eye opener.  I had to make my own mind up how we were playing. It was up to me to see how the team was set up […]

A guest post from Andrew @anicoll5   Good morning Fellow Positivistas from a grey East Anglia morning with Autumn firmly camped across the land. By land and sea, by air and digital pulse, our thoughts turn to Villa Park today. Even with the Holte End spoiled by seating, still a proper football ground full of […]

I love watching a good game of football, and thats exactly what The Arsenal and Manchester City(the league champions by the way) served up to us yesterday. Am I disappointed we didn’t win ? Yes, I always am. Am I disappointed with our performance? Hell no, I thought we were fantastic. I really don’t understand […]
