When I joined Twitter almost 4 years ago, it rapidly became my go-to social network. It was a quick way to see what’s happening in the Arsenal world and I’ve rarely missed anything of note since.

The storm in a tea cup…. Digital marketer’s views on our non-faux pas on Twitter My profession is rooted in the digital marketing sector.

This comes from my heart, Gooners: Arsenal Twitter deserves to be shut down. Some of you might have noticed that I’ve been really quiet and didn’t write anything for some time, as well as not interacting much – if at all – on social media; I’m not protesting, boycotting or anything like that, I’m just […]
