https://twitter.com/hamburgooner/status/729403151686766592 Gooners have all, at some stage, sung the immortal chant “There’s Only One Arséne Wenger” – but is it actually true? Is there only ONE Arséne Wenger? Is he unique? And, if so, is that a good thing? And if it’s false – if there is more than one Arséne Wenger – what would that mean, exactly?! […]

Jack Wilshere may be a surprise starter at the Etihad – MCFC v AFC
Hello everyone. It’s Manchester City we face this weekend and, while our recent displays hardly fill me with confidence of any kind, there are nonetheless two circumstances which make me feel slightly better going into this game: City are a big team and they have been even more crap than we’ve been in the […]
It ain’t over yet: this season is gonna get REAL crazy!

Problem was: I didn’t like the colour red – so when FA Cup Final day came around in […]
The Thin White Prof pays tribute to the Thin White Duke
Gunners Town was saddened to hear of the death of David Bowie, who succumbed to cancer at the tender age of 69. Hero. Legend. Shape-shifter supreme. It seems that we weren’t the only ones held captive by Ziggy Stardust. [youtube_advanced url=”http://youtu.be/WbxsgsouBdQ” width=”560″ height=”320″ rel=”no”] I have been listening to his latest album Blackstar (released only […]
FROM ZEROUD TO HEROUD Olivier Giroud – the hat-trick pony.
So happy that Oli is getting shown some love. He’s a desperately under-rated player. It’s a classic example of being so blinded by what you WANT, that you can’t see what you HAVE. Despite all the negative attention, the criticism, the injuries and the impossible expectation – Olivier believed in himself and gave us a […]
