Our supposed bad record at the St. Mary’s Stadium in Southampton is continuing, since we lost this game 3-2. The new Southampton manager, Ralph Hassenhutl, managed to get the win here, and in his first home game. As for us, it was in essence more of the same. We played well in parts, but weak […]
POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Firstly, it was rumoured that both Arsenal and Bayern looked closely at Saints new manager. That was the best-coached game against AFC this season. We never breathed today. We were smothered with intelligent tactics. Important that we recognize the needs we have but also that game was made very difficult […]
In a week when Arsenal fans are again excited about the young talent being produced by the club, this fan is finding himself depressed at the debate that always follows.

Sideshow Matt… …was breaking away & Fellaini, proving to all that he is the dog we all know he is, and following to Maureen’s script, used any means necessary to stop him. Typically, at Old Trafford, the ref […]
Arsenal vs. Huddersfield Town – Premier League preview We have another instalment of the Herbert Chapman “Derby” – since the great manager had successful spells at both clubs.
