Our aim at the start of the season was to finish on the Top 4. That’s still our primary goal and we’re still well on track to achieve that. Anything above that is a bonus but seeing as we’re 3 points clear at the top of the table, the ‘bonus’ is worth talking about. So […]
Blimey, 3pm kick off? A 3pm kick off on a Saturday? That timeslot is a definite rare occurrence for the Arsenal. It does feel a while since we were afforded the chance to play football at a time which wasn’t dictated to be played for the convenience of a television network. Especially considering we are […]
Full-time. Sean Dyche’s Everton 1-0 Arsenal. Let me be clear – this was NOT the game I envisioned writing about in my first piece. I suppose you’ve always got to start somewhere! Anyway, I’m Alfie, and welcome to my brand new column on Gunners Town – That Sums It All Up. What EXACTLY am I […]

As for the game, it’s pretty much the sixth-place play-off final. Burnley, whilst a “small club”, can finish above […]

Yesterday all of Liverpool, Spurs, City and United dropped points, clearing the path for us to overtake the former two and increase the gap on the latter pair. On paper screen, Burnley at home looks as winnable a fixture […]
As the 93rd minute was ticking away, I was thinking of how great a last-minute winner could be. This unique feeling of snatching the win when the draw is staring you in the face. Nothing compares to it. The guys behind me in the pub were having a good time, mostly because they were watching […]
Phew, it’s been a hell of a week. If you are interested in what I’ve been up to, this has been my first (kind of proper) week studying journalism at Kingston. In this week I managed to: Do and show the first bit of assessed work in the form of a group presentation (on click-bait […]
