My dad was always one for his ‘pearls of wisdom’, one that always stuck in my mind was, “Son, never go back, she’s never the same second time around”. The other one was, “Son, best form of contraception? Don’t tell them your surname”?! So anyway, back to the first one. As my dad advised, most managers […]
Week Fourteen – Holidays are coming, Holidays are coming…. You can tell that an international break is upon us just from the hot topics of conversation from around Tuesday onwards. The week began with heated debate over the huge controversy that was, at the end of the day, a footballer celebrating scoring a goal. Such […]
Interlull, interdull, interlol. Whatever you want to call it, we seem to have had a huge amount of international breaks recently since the start of the season, and even just before the Premier League campaign got underway if you will remember. I’m sure we never usually have this many, but it seems as if every […]
When I hear the name ‘Ashley Cole’ I shudder. I shudder harder than the time I went out in the snow wearing nothing but fishnet tights and a string vest. Everyone else was shuddering when they saw me too. Can’t think why. That name, Ashley Cole, tears me up. I hate the little bastard. Hate […]

This week, I chose to write about the man of the moment, whom I can’t help but love with all my Gooner heart. Plenty has been written about Aaron Ramsey this season, but I felt compelled to have my own say and appreciate the player and what a story his is, in my own words. […]
It’s that time of the week again where it’s my job to try to entertain the Gooner faithful on Gunners Town, as well as attempting to build up an array of fascinating, intellectual debate about the Arsenal. I Tweeted on Sunday morning stating that I “felt like I was on my period” due to my […]
Week Thirteen – What If…. Two huge games this week, the sort of games that are the reason we all love football. A week made more exciting by the fact that we go into this week in decent shape after going five points clear at the top of the league at the weekend. I’ve spoken […]
[heading size=”8″]Manchester United 1 Arsenal 0 – Beaten, But Not A Disaster[/heading] Arsenal’s fine unbeaten away form came to an end with a 1-0 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
