It’s been an emotional few weeks and my advice is to find some music to work your way through the 5 stages of grief until the six pointer against Norwich in two weeks time. 1. Denial and Isolation – Me, Myself and I – De La Soul When denial kicks in, everything loses meaning, […]

Choose The Arsenal, Choose Life “Choose life, Choose Class, History, The Arsenal and know that the true fans there really do care. Choose putting your faith in Arsene and The Arsenal, knowing you wouldn’t really have it any other way. Choose watching at the Emirates every week. Choose the trials. Choose the tribulations, […]
