Southampton 1 – 1 Arsenal: Woeful Gunners Steal Last-Gasp Point
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal Barclays Premier League Matchday 16 St. Mary’s Stadium, Southampton That was poor. Like last week vs. United. Like the Stoke away game earlier this season. Like numerous games last season. Or the season before that. Or several seasons before that. Yes, we did well to get a point in the end. But […]
Record Equalling Giroud papering the Arsenal Cracks as on pitch failings increase
Before the game I genuinely thought we would see the Gunners respond to last week’s injustice at the Emirates. The rested during midweek squad started fully, with just one, rather predictable, exception: Mertesacker for Mustafi. It’s a change a championed myself to a degree in my preview, though it still came second after switching to […]
Floundering Mertesacker, Hot Headed Xhaka and the Incompetence of Referees
I have just watched the match on TV and I was resolved to post a blog on the game when I sat down to write it and I saw Alex Baguzin`s preview. As usual he was pretty accurate in the make-up of the team and he identified the threats of the opposing team. Unfortunately he […]
Momentum of Back Four or Solidity of Three for St Mary’s? That is the Question!
It’s a visit to St. Mary’s today, and it marks the beginning of a somewhat simpler run of fixtures for the Gunners. Our only top 6 team this calendar year is going to be Liverpool on December 22. The we face Chelsea on January 3, with games against Palace and West Brom sandwiched in-between. Spurs […]
Arsenal 6 – 0 BATE Borisov: Satisfyingly Boring
Arsenal 6 – 0 BATE Borisov Emirates Stadium Europa League Final Group Stage Match BATE were NOT much of a threat tonight, despite them needing a win to qualify. Wenger started a 433 formation, which was effective in beating BATE. However, the game overall was satisfyingly boring. It seems odd to say, but it’s true. […]
Perfect Gooner Christmas present: a little Highbury in your home! (Exclusive Discount)
Gooners will always hold a special place in their hearts for Highbury. As beautiful as the Emirates is – the art deco facade of Arsenal’s old stadium was stylishly eye-catching, and placed it in a class of its own. Arsenal Stadium (its proper name) was built in 1913. In the 1930’s the site was redeveloped and […]
Xhaka and Kolasinac – Good but are they good enough? Arsenal Consistently Inconsistent
In recent months, I’ve not contributed to the Gunners Town site. Work commitments and a busy social schedule have been two of the key factors in my blogging absence but the most disappointing factor, has been a lack of inspiration. I’ve never been one who writes for the sake of it and I’ll only ever […]
I’m no Wenger fanboy – but he’s not to blame for being untied by United.
I have read some newspaper reports yesterday and today and it is a gloomy occupation this morning to be reading the comments by fans. The Arsene Out Brigade (of which I am a member), are venting their spleens this morning on Twitter, and looking for blood. They are seeking Wenger`s head and laying the blame […]
Gunners are found lacking as De Gea saves United from a spanking: AFC1MUFC3
The only place I can start today is to say just how massively disappointed I am. Disappointed with the result, disappointed with making a lot of despicable people happy, disappointed our fans went home on that freezing night empty-handed. Before the game there was a genuine buzz of excitement in and around the stadium. I’m […]
