Well yesterday on Twitter was unpleasant to say he least. The club’s will they, won’t they pursuit of keeper Aaron Ramsdale has half the fanbase in a real ‘tiss’ as my old mum would say.

Arteta v Wilder – If it is David v Goliath who is David and who is Goliath?
Someone actually posted on social media the other day that it has been over a thousand days since Arsenal last lifted the FA Cup. Which stands out as an honour that has been passed around the country from Manchester to London over the past few years. Yes, there may have been other pit stops over […]
Arsenal’s European finals – An Historical Pedigree that needs improving!
The coming Europa League final will be our seventh European final in total. The previous six have had two wins and four defeats, though we obviously will look to make it three from seven very soon. But what’s the story of our European finals? For a club of Arsenal’s global size, our European […]

Arsene Who?
Part one -The first 10 years…. 20 years? 20 years since the unknown French manager walked through the door and who would have thought he would still be manager to this day. Wenger arrived at Highbury in October 1996 and Arsenal fans didn’t have a clue who he was. Wenger had a lot to prove […]
Time for Gabriel to get his chance with Bosscielny? Or is it business as ‘Per’usual?
My memories of Per Mertesacker’s time at Arsenal are certainly a mixed bag.

Hello everyone. It’s been a while since I last wrote. Unfortunately, it’ll be the case for the entire month of July, as I’ve decided to gain a bit of working experience and thus took up work as an intern for a firm providing legal services. Ah well, I guess I had to do it at […]

A short poem about ARSENAL’s Petr Cech With facts like this you earn instant respect Will try my best to ensure it rhymes For a man who’s been capped 114 times To find a man capped more is more than tricky 14 more than his buddy Tomas Rosicky His bro Mozart said Petr, stop bench […]
