‘Can we do this down the park?’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I have never played for the quadruple. I have never played in front of 60,000. I have never plated for a team where millions are watching and hoping. I have never played under their expectation. None of my coaches come close […]
In a development that statisticians are describing as “FRANKly offensive to Tottenham Hotspur,” Arsenal have secured St Totteringham’s Day on 1 March 2026, the earliest North London coronation since the tradition took shape over a century ago. Historians of the rivalry note that this is the latest twist in a feud that has bubbled since […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Renée Slegers and her players completed a remarkable week with three wins in as many games to book a place in the knock-out phase of the UWCL and the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.

‘The day they became Arsenal’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I didn’t realize what I was looking at until I was in Kentucky.

Of course, I donated personally but in discussion with Mike, I […]

That was a massive performance from Renée Slegers and her players, who dominated the visitors in the first half and managed to protect the […]
‘Running out of rubbish’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective The worst of me isn’t fun to see. I think the American word is ‘jerk.’ I am nice 95% of the time. The worst of me comes out at the following times; After the third time that Brad Hackem wipes out my playmaker after […]

The Gunners got the best of Corinthians after a fierce battle and brought home the inaugural FIFA Women’s Champions Cup trophy, writing their name in the history books. On top of the being and first and only English club to lift the UWCL (twice), Arsenal will […]
‘One Battle after another’ An Arsenal blog from a coaches perspective I’ve been told the movie is really good. We have 10 inches of snow right now, which is extremely rare. I think I’ll watch the movie today. The headline might be misleading if the movie is a sappy, romantic comedy about an agitated couple […]
