TBIF – The Weekly Gunners Town Crew Review Friday The 17th April, 2015 Welcome to Thank Bergkamp It’s Friday – where members of the Gunners Town writing team gather to take a look at the Arsenal week that’s just passed. It’s a simple format, really – each week, a smattering of our eclectic scribes will select a HERO, a VILLAIN, a HIGHLIGHT, and a LOWLIGHT from […]
Everyone has the right to give their opinions, they are allowed to talk about it, to write about it and to share their thoughts to people in any way, be it a respectful way. Football in England is still, no doubt one of the best to watch in the world. The rivalry, the tenacity, the […]
You sold Bale and we signed Mesut Ozil, Mesut Ozil, Mesut f***ing Ozil!! Honestly having been a huge fan of his before I even thought it was possible he could play for my club, I still rub my eyes in disbelief that he sports the mighty red kit of Arsenal! What a player he […]
After the loss to Tottenham with no chance of a response again this season, I will honestly admit I’m enraged! It means that we have failed to beat them this year that is always damaging to our pride as the far superior club. It’s hard to pinpoint where we went wrong but being the world […]
Captain’s Log, star-date 1,0,7,9 point 12. We’re interrupting our 5-year mission to head back to Earth for the North London derby. Exploring the final frontier can wait.

Mesut Özil and Theo Walcott made their comebacks recently, Aaron Ramsey did the same a bit earlier while, with perfect timing, Santi Cazorla, Tomas Rosicky and […]
Hello and welcome back to my Gunners Town blog. Don’t adjust the date on your phones, it is a Thursday, and it is the work of me (Matt Cotton) appearing before your very eyes. You see, I’m kind of the Mathieu Flamini of the Gunners Town team; not particularly attractive, but willing to fill in […]
It’s a question that has caused so many debates amongst Arsenal fans and this question more than any statistic drives our narrative to the non Arsenal world…. Can Arsenal win the “big” games? What does that mean. To me it means going to the North West and Chelsea away from home and winning. It’s about […]
There are a lot of things to hate about Billionaire’s playthings Manchester City and Chelsea. A lot.That Chelsea were saved from bankruptcy (and almost certainly a subsequently enforced relegation into The Championship)when Roman Abramovich came in and pumped hundreds of millions of pounds into the West London side is one of them.Their team would have […]
Happy Festivius Gooners, in a week when Arsenal faltered again in a match against a title rival – albeit this fixture was also a battle with appalling weather conditions and an another diabolical refereeing performance too – a game two days later away to Sam Allardyce’s struggling West Ham side could’ve been a real banana […]
