Good morning all. Later this afternoon we play Bate in a far flung freezing land. Perhaps not the most skillful of opponents, but certainly testing conditions. It will be something of a shock if we don’t return to London with three points in the bag. After the result pulled off by our nearest, but far […]

    When Arsene announced he would be stepping down I felt a little sad but mainly relieved. The infighting and media hounding had worn me down, I was glad it was over. However much I thought of him as a man and a manager I felt the time was right. I thought we had […]

Well we won, 3 points away from home. That keeps our interest in the top 4 for now. I thought Lacazette played well and Mkhitaryan did well to say he has just missed 10 games. Iwobi was dangerous going forward but very disappointing once he got near the box. Koscielny was also very good and […]

Arsenal are in Yorkshire this afternoon to take on strugglers Huddersfield at the John Smith Stadium. Good day one and all… There’s not much to say about our hosts except that with 13 games left to play it already look as if the 2018/19 Premier League season has defeated them. They’re rock bottom since Boxing […]

There is never an ideal time for any team to play Manchester City, whether home or away, but here we are. Good day one and all… It’s going to be the battle of the Spanish managers this afternoon as Unai Emery take his Arsenal side to the Etihad to take on compatriot Pep Guardiola’s Mancity. […]

  Good morning people. You might note that I said “people”,  and I haven’t used the normal “good  morning positive people”. I revisited the ABOUT US on the site and  immediately felt glum. “If you are a fan of the club who needs to vent their frustration by denouncing players who are “Notfittoweartheshirt”, or who delights disparaging […]

@LaboGoon says ….. Good day one and all. Arsenal host Cardiff at the Emirates Stadium in a match that will have huge implications at both ends of the Premier League table; while the Gunners hope to maintain a push for Champion League qualification, the Bluebirds are aiming to move clear of the relegation trapdoor. When […]

    Feck. Bollocks. Balls. We were doing ok; then we conceded; then the familiar tale of trying to break through a deep defence while being wide open for counters. Urgh. There’s gotta be another way. It’s gotta be better to lose another way than this way. Our way doesn’t seem sensible enough to me. […]

  Here I am again, happy as can be. Well that was a desperately disappointing night, wasn’t it positives? Simply put , for most of the game  we looked the better team, but we were not. If that makes any sense? Until they scored, bloody Sanchez of all the devils it could have been, with […]

  We face a Utd team buoyed by seven victories from seven under their new manager, with 19 goals scored and 4 conceded in that run. A number of players, notably Pogba and Rashford, have been thriving since Mourinho’s exit and ,presumably, enter the match with sky high confidence. However, it cannot be ignored that […]
