5 things Arrogant Arsenal and Wenger must do to WIN again and keep WINNING
I hate these International periods – just when we should be accelerating into the final phase of the season, when most of us are off work we have day upon day away from our passion. Watching Arsenal. Talking about Arsenal. Worrying about Arsenal… …wait! we can still worry about Arsenal – OK, here goes! Time gets […]
Granit Xhaka Scouting Report from Switzerland, not from FIFA!
Sky Sports Germany and many other media outlets are sure: Granit Xhaka will be a Gunner next summer. I don’t know how reliable the source is but rumors are getting stronger and stronger, so perhaps there is something solid behind them. There’s no smoke without fire, they say. Who is Granit Xhaka, by the way? […]
Have Arsenal truly missed their best chance in a decade to win the league? Maybe/Maybe Not!
The lion’s share of our fans’ disappointment at how this season is shaping out to be is linked with a simple fact: our traditional rivals are underperforming. City and United are 4th and 5th respectively, while Chelsea sit in 10th place. In a campaign where all the big boys are struck with such a malaise, […]
Wenger is mistaken in his Criticism of Arsenal Fans – By attacking the Minority he insults the Majority
Having frequently criticised Arsene in the past, there will undoubtedly be some members of our fan base who will hold the view that supporters like me, who openly question our manager, take some form of enjoyment from seeing him come under increasing pressure from fans and the media. However, the reality is that the sadness […]

Rhyme, Reason and Conspiracy Theories – Is there actually a sinister reason for Arsenal’s recent failures?
After the Watford debacle (sorry for a throwback like this, but it’s necessary) there was an outpouring of anger among the Arsenal faithful. This anger, borne out of the team’s inability to perform, was directed at all sorts of people: from the owner of the Club all the way down to individual players. The theories […]
From Shattering Disappointment to Arsenal Fan Power Dismissing Manager – The Terry Neill Years 1979-83 Part 2
I left you will Terry’s first tastes of glory and Arsenal’s first in 8 years in Part 1 and the story continues…… 1979-80 remains for me the most heart-breaking season Arsenal have ever had. A season that promised so much, yet we ended up with nothing. A gruelling marathon of a season where we played no […]
“De Form of Dat Guy suggests de end of de road for Olivier Giroud as First Choice”
Where does Welbeck’s recent form leave Giroud? In what has been an elongated period of negatives for Arsenal football club, one positive along with a few others showed himself again in the impressive 2-0 victory over Everton at the weekend. No it is not another Arsenal fan over-hyping Alex Iwobi, although he was half decent […]

I was fortunate to meet Alex Scott last week and she had just returned from an inspiring trip for Arsenal and the Arsenal Foundation to visit a co-funded project with Save the Children in Iraq. Here is the story and perhaps sometimes as it should be football is so much more than the last […]
