No need for Arsenal to be superstitious about lifeless Black Cats
Image courtesy of ‘You are my Arsenal’ It’s Sunderland away and I remember how hard it has been for us to beat the Black Cats either home or away for the last two seasons, no matter who was in charge. There was that 2-0 away with a brace from Alexis after Mannone spilled his beans […]
Hi Arséne – God Calling… A Day In The Life of Wenger
Arsene is sitting in his office after a hard day’s training, which is getting easier these days as he doesn’t have to keep calling the doctors to deal with Jack, when his phone rings. “Hi Arsene, God here. How are things?” “Not too bad, son. Long time no hear!!” “Yeah, sorry – been a bit […]
Better The Wenger You Know…
My interest in football articles and in particular those associated with Arsenal was drawn to a number of articles in which the common subjects appeared to be praise for Wenger for the performance of the current team and severe criticism for the ineptitude of Man Utd`s recent managers. Kroenke in particular remarked on the difficulty […]
Reading v Arsenal – The match that tested a Love Affair
Almost 4 years ago Arsenal went to Reading at the same stage of the League Cup. It was one of the most amazing nights of Cup football that ended in The Gunners overcoming a 4 goal deficit to win 7-5 AET. One of the founding members of Gunners Town, Anna Lvova, was inspired the folloing […]
Arsenal’s very own Nigerian Legend – Kanuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!
This week’s Highbury Hero takes us back to January 1999, when Arsene Wenger signed a 6 foot 5 inch Nigerian who looked more like a basketball player than a footballer. If he had have been a basketball player it would be easy to imagine him being one of the Harlem Globetrotters, as Kanu was such […]
Yesterdays shows we NEED Cazorla or Ramsey back to face United and Spurs
So, our winning streak came to an end yesterday. While it was obvious this would happen at some point, and I fully realize we don’t get to pick and choose, dropping points at home to a team 17th in the table is hardly ideal. In the preview I talked a bit about how important it […]

There is Greater Pleasure in Praising Wenger than Criticizing him……… For Now :)
In the past I have been accused of being negative or having some form of personal agenda against Arsene Wenger. Accusations, that unsurprisingly, originate from supporters who wear rose-tinted spectacles where our manager is concerned. These are accusations that I strongly refute and would argue that perhaps it is those who choose to focus on […]
Top of the league tomorro by beating The Boro! – Big Match Preview
Howdy. Another week is behind us, which means the Premier League football returns. This game week kicks off with Spurs visiting Bournemouth, however Manchester City don’’t play until Sunday, which means Arsenal will be able to go top, provided we win on Saturday. And look, I see no reason why we shouldn’t. The team has […]
A Ringer in for Theo, a new Ringer in for Ox, the Red Card Rule explained and it is not a Selfie Rio
Winning the games “we should win”, and the new red card laws explained in detail Another week, another two wins. This is becoming something of a habit now isn’t it? Not bad after an international break either. I feel the need to apologise in advance for the amount of quotation marks in this week’s […]
