It’s a question that has caused so many debates amongst Arsenal fans and this question more than any statistic drives our narrative to the non Arsenal world…. Can Arsenal win the “big” games? What does that mean. To me it means going to the North West and Chelsea away from home and winning. It’s about […]
In the Premier League today, how many teams trust British players centrally to drive the team forward? Even more so how, many top four Champions League teams trust British players at the heart of their team? We are moving away from the Frank Lampard, Paul Scholes and Steven Gerrard obsession. At Arsenal we have three lads, all […]
Arsene Wenger is known to be a miserly spender in the transfer market. He doesn’t believe in in a squad bought with money.

Through The Never – Metallica’s groundbreaking, rip-roaring, 3-D thrash metal of a movie following a roadie’s adventures during their live show. A colleague of mine had recently regaled me about how much his mind was unexpectedly blown on such a trip to the IMAX to see this surreal concert film. The litany of pyrotechnics, lasers, […]

I’ve been threatening to pen some thoughts for Dave for some time but never really managed to get enough time to jot down something vaguely coherent enough for what I think is deemed worthy of Gunners Town.
