It all started way back when, way back when Gary Lewin decided to up sticks and head for the bright lights of St Georges Park and Team England. On his way out of the door he shouted back to Arsene, “I know a guy, he’ll see you right. I’ll call you from the car” Bemused, […]
I’m still standing ? Not much to say following Sunday Bloody Sunday, well except, “Oh look it’s November, let’s all book a trip to the physio”. The defeat sucks, but the injuries are are verging on ridiculous. If all the tests are as bad as they probably will be, the best starting XI we can […]
The Arsenal of the past 9 seasons reared its ugly head on Saturday. We dominated the game with 72% possession , 592 completed passes, 11 shots and a 2-1 defeat. To rub sodium chloride in the gaping hole, the Baggies only managed 1 shot on target and still scored 2 goals!!!! Here’s hoping this is […]
Recently I composed a piece regarding the ongoing curse of the number 9 and Arsenal’s continuing failure to fill the void left by Alan Smith. But there is another shirt that has suffered the same fate over the past few years, but it looks like that the curse on the 1(+)8 shirt may have finally […]

Literal translation “harm-joy” The feeling of joy or pleasure when one sees another fail or suffer misfortune. Now I know it’s rude to laugh at those less fortunate than yourself but I just want to take a moment and snigger at the fall from grace of ‘Just some Robin that I used to know’ […]
It costs being a Gooner you know! Really? So it’s that time of year again when the ‘Price of Football’ Report is compiled and published to the world to dissect and digest. Once again the knives are out and The Arsenal are in the firing line as usual. Now I’m not defending the prices at […]
But if you try sometimes – you just might find – you get what you need Words by Wellmington, TheSundayMorningGooner Music by Mick Jagger & Keith Richards Olympiakos arrived at the Emirates And we thought it was in our own hands They turned up and got one over on us They turned up and out-fought […]
The one who wishes he was King! I know that a lot of my recent blogs have been regarding the comedic antics of everyone’s favourite clown Maureen, but he makes such bloody good copy !!! The self appointed ‘Chosen One’ seems to spend more time in his pressers waxing lyrical about Arsene and less about […]
