Gunners Town Tipster Welcome once again to the weekly blog that tries to put some cash in your pockets. As usual I will look at how odds have changed in players linked to Arsenal this summer. Cesc Fabregas’ price has dipped slightly and can still be had at 7/2. I’d still be tempted to have […]

Arsenal 2013: The Rise of the Acronyms (WOBs, AKBs, it’s all BS!)
You Guest It I’ve wanted to write a blog for a long time now, but where do you start? Arsenal, more so than any other club, it seems, already has hundreds of regular bloggers, covering everything from transfer rumours, to tactics and individual players. But there is one key issue that I feel needs addressing, […]
Arsenal Summer Transfers: The Inside View
Anti Social-Media Behaviour Poxy Irish Summer 2013. I wrote last week’s piece sitting on a bean bag in the garden, sweating like a paedophile in a Barney suit, nothing on but the sauce that had dripped from my badly burned BBQ burger, with a bottle of beer in hand (ah it was great while it […]
Does modern football led by UEFA reward mediocrity and failure?
Far Side View Being laid up on a hospital bed for the last week and sky high on morphine, my blog this week will be short and sweet and is a revisit to an old topic I discussed on my own site a few months ago. Are UEFA breeding a generation of footballers who believe […]
New Transfer Window TV Special Announced; I’m an ITK, Get Me Out Of Here!
Pre-Season Diary So, welcome to week two of the silly season diaries. After getting caught up a bit in the excitement/madness myself for a couple of weeks or so, I’m now feeling rather detached from the whole transfer speculation shenanigans. It feels like I’m having some kind of out of body experience when on Twitter […]
Where are they now? The Search for Forgotten Gooners – Week 7: Alex Manninger
Where Are They Now? As it comes to the seventh edition of the Search for the Forgotten Gooners, I’ve been forced to really scratch my brain to rediscover certain misfits, or flashes in the pan whom have since seemingly been removed from the face of the Arsenalsphere. I’ve brought a variety of talents back under […]
Wenger the Alchemist, close to finally blending his player ingredients for the recipe of success in 2014
Mr. T’s Nuts The past eight years have been trophyless. We know that, and the media have forced it down our throats for so long that it seems to be all Gooners can think about these days! For me though, it hasn’t been quite that simple. Personally I’ve archived the memories of the past eight […]
Arsène the ‘Humble One’ v José the ‘Happy One’
What’s The Score?! Welcome to another week of “What’s the score?!” – Heinz Tomato Ketchup (the sauce!) has been working overtime this last week with further rumours of who Arsenal are going to sign. From a quick recollection of names mentioned, apparently there are two goalkeepers one CB, two or three DMs, and a couple […]
So Ivan you have talked the talk. Now time to walk the walk!
Michael Jeffares Column When it comes to blogging I prefer to focus on our players on-field performance or tactical decisions, but for this week I’m going to focus on our South African Chief Executive Ivan Gazidis. After all if it wasn’t for him there’d be no Arsenal-related news over the past eight days. He’s shown his face […]
AMBITIONS, VALUES, TRADITIONS AND THE BIRTH OF A SUPERCLUB – ARSENAL 2013/13
You Guest It “When I arrived here 13 years ago I could sense that this club had values, tradition, and strength in their belief and in their values. “When I travelled at that time to Derby or to Coventry when they were in the Premier League, they always told me it is ‘the Arsenal way’ […]
