The winter window is open you know Arsène? You know, the short period of time during which you are allowed to strengthen your squad, add new faces, and cover holes that went somehow unnoticed in the past three years. I reckon those very little issues were hard to identify, however now they came to light […]

The Good, the Bad and the BOLACS – The new need to know about Arsenal acronym
Darren’s New Year Special Season Diary – BELIEVE in 2015 Ok, it may be a little late for a New Year’s Special, but as you will probably have people wishing you a happy new year until mid-February I think we can let that slide, don’t you? January – What a fucking depressing time of year […]
Arsenal bounce back v Hull and victory illustrates Wenger’s options for EPL
While a January 1 defeat at the hands of Southampton quelled some of the momentum Arsenal generated throughout December, the 2-0 FA Cup win over Hull City may have gotten the Gunners back on track. And once again, it was thanks in large part to some nice contributions from bench players. The focus, in January, […]
Arsenal enjoy Christmas wins, a new midfield combi and target Winston Reid
Captain’s Log, star-date post Christmas. Chekov got me Taylor Swift’s album for Christmas as revenge for beaming his tree into space. Joke’s on him though, I FUCKING LOVE IT!!! QPR I expected the win. We got the win. Even with 10 men we did well. I don’t know what Giroud was thinking but he’s made […]
Please come in Mr Klopp!

Gunners Face Make-Or-Break November – A Gunners Town Preview
We posted last week that what looks like another frustrating EPL campaign should perhaps result in a makeover for the Gunners—and it’s fair to say things aren’t looking mightily encouraging at the moment. Fourteen points through the first nine matches is less than ideal for a club with the sort of talent Arsene Wenger is […]
The Wilshere article the Tabloids should write but can’t whilst they bash him
“Fi fi fo fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman, Be he live, or be he dead, I’ll grind his bones to make my bread” I find that this poem, as given in Joseph Jacob’s 1890 rendition of the classic English fairytale ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’, is very much applicable to […]

Roman has changed the landscape of English football and London football. · Chelsea have more money injected by the ownership model. · Chelsea have a better up to date […]
Arsenal fans MUST start to show MORE RESPECT to their new defensive-midfield leader
He is our new captain and he looks massively honoured and proud about it, he said it himself immediately after lifting the Community Shield at Wembley. Let’s give Mikel Arteta a break, gentlemen – can we? He’s not a powerhouse, he will never be Patrick Vieira or Gilberto Silva but he’s never failed to give his […]
Gunners ‘D’Manding’ a DM but have we already got him, them?
The Frankenstein syndrome. Here we are in again in August, on the eve of the Community Shield and the outlook has changed most definitely from recent years, as in, by mid-July, we already had four signings made, and good ones at that, with good money spent. Also, we’re back in England, as we’re actually playing […]
