Well isn’t this one of the most frustrating, infuriating transfer windows we’ve ever had. The club has done good business up to now. Signing Willian on a free was a shrewd move. He still has a lot to offer and the fact Chelsea didn’t want to lose him says a lot. I’ll be honest, I […]
When I was a kid growing up in the 1960’s and 70’s it’s hard to imagine now for the younger generation but the FA Cup meant everything. Every Monday lunchtime that the FA Cup draw was taking place we’d be glued to the radio listening to hear our teams’ fate. Every FA Cup tie was […]
It wasn’t long ago that fans were saying we can still make the top four. However we are playing badly enough to become embroiled in a relegation battle with nine games without a league victory. The Gunners are hovering just five points above the bottom three and I cannot see where the next win is […]
A dark day in the history of Arsenal Football Club As Bob Dylan once said “The time’s they are a changing” I’ve been going to watch The Arsenal for well over 50 years now and must admit I was shocked and embarrassed by my fellow Arsenal fans reaction when Xhaka’s number was held up on […]
It’s back once again to the swinging sixties in the time machine for the latest Highbury Hero. In December 1964 a young local lad signed Schoolboy forms to join The Arsenal. Never has a player been so determined, so driven and worked so hard at his game to reach the standard to be an Arsenal […]
Football fans need to wake up to what is coming relentlessly down the track at us. I am talking about the so-called European Super League. The threat is very real and moving at a rapid pace. What is wrong with that some may ask? Allow me to try to enlighten you if you do not […]
Yesterday I posted a tweet saying I wished David Dein was still conducting Arsenal’s transfer affairs. This caused quite a reaction with fans either agreeing or mentioning all the bad things they considered he did to the club. There is no doubt he made plenty of mistakes along the way. However, I think overall the […]
With just a couple of days now till the Europa League Final in Baku. I thought I’d take a stroll down memory lane to take a look at our previous endeavours in Europe. All in all it has to be said for a club of Arsenal’s stature we’ve underachieved in European competition. Just two trophies […]
To Hell (and Baku): the Arsenal team you’d pick to deliver against the Devil’s Eleven If Arsenal were to play a fictitious game a match in hell against a team made up of peak 1970’s dirty Leeds United, Wimbledon’s 1980’s crazy gang and the 1960’s Italian assassins all rolled into one. In a foreign […]
Well it’s an almighty mess isn’t it? (and I’m not talking about the Brexit negotiations either!) It’s our beloved football club that I’m referring to. Both on the field and off it. In recent weeks performances and results have really accentuated what a shambles Arsene Wenger left the playing squad in. The squad is completely […]
