Jesus, what a difference a week makes eh?! This time last week it was all doom and gloom after losing at Stoke and seemingly watching our Premier League title hopes hang by a thread. Needless to say there was a wave of negativity flowing around the Goonersphere. Fast forward a week and we’re off to […]
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 […]

Will this be the year? The title itself would have made clear what this article is all about. I am going to try to answer this question for you keeping in mind everything that my mind is capable of keeping. It’s January 16th, and we are already past the halfway mark in the Barclays Premier League. […]
Thank You Tottenham Hotspur ? 3rd March 2013 was a day that all Arsenal fans dread. It was a day of defeat in the North London Derby. It was the start of a 24 hour period of Facebook silence for me, with my status being “I love Tottenham Hotspur” (a long running bet I have […]
Aston Villa 1 Arsenal 2 – Jack On The Money As Arsenal Scrape The Win Two goals inside a minute from Jack Wilshere and Olivier Giroud were enough for Arsenal to return to the top of the Premier League, despite a nervy finish at Villa Park in which Christian Benteke’s late header that gave Aston […]
