Gunners Town is pleased to welcome guest writer Gary Lawrence to the site to air his heart-felt views on Arsenal’s disappointing ticket price policies. You can follow him on Twitter at @garythegooner56 The Real Cost of Arsenal’s Ticket Prices by Gary Lawrence I feel I must write about two things that have infuriated me […]
New Year, Same Old Problems – Can Arsenal Turn Things Around?
The greatest threat to Arsenal’s title chances, is Arsenal. We seamlessly transition from the stratospheric heights of sublime perfection to the abysmal depths of hopeless ineptitude. When Arsenal fans are knocking on heaven’s doors, they are advised to declare that they support Arsenal. The range of emotions that one experiences as an Arsenal supporter is quite […]
Wenger’s Surprise selection pays off – Arsenal and Ox back in the game!
Courtesy of Shoot Magazine for whom I write a 2 weekly column I was fortunate enough to be at the match as their reporter so I will be stepping in for Alex our usual match reviewer as he is on holiday. There was some surprise when the team news showed Gabriel retaining his place alongside […]
Bournemouth preview: Gunners seek to end their winless streak against the spirited Cherries
Howdy. The football is back today (along with yours truly) and, much as I like to avoid the cliched phrase, we really do have to win this one. Spurs scraped past Twatford yesterday to open up a 3-point lead on the Gunners (naturally, having played a game more) while City went down to Leicester at […]
Arsenal need to bring their FA Cup form to the Premier League – It’s NOW or NEVER!
We’ve been down a roller coaster ride, mostly going down and I personally think it just passed below the level required of champions. I’m not going to have a match review or a Star Man Column up this time because the game was just too depressing and on top of that I had a very […]
Tough to understand Wenger’s in game decisions of late and persistence with Walcott
After midweek wins for Leicester, Spurs and the two Manchester clubs, our disappointing draw with Southampton felt like a defeat. Whilst there will undoubtedly be a few more twists and turns in the title race, a paltry return of just three points from the last twelve on offer, coupled with the knowledge of difficult away […]

Gunners Town is pleased to share this fantastic post by the brilliant Jane Cavendish (@jcav90). Enjoy! Football at the top level is now more than ever about transitions. Gone are the days when a team aspires only to having countless minutes of possession, moving the ball slowly in front of the opposition defence waiting for […]
Guilty as charged: Wenger doesn’t have what it takes (to win the league)
So: Arsenal are in their accustomed place – 4th in the Premiership and what are the chances of improving? I would urge you dear reader to have a look at John Cross`s article in the Mirror today. I have said much of what he has said, many times to the extent that there is nothing […]
The Positives and Negatives from the Victory over Burnley
This was an Arsenal performance of contrasts. There was much to admire but anxieties remain that we will fall short of our number one goal – the Premier League. As to the positives they were clear to see. Elneny played well on his debut – he was busy, prominent, challenged and committed. It is always […]
Alexis, Coq and Elneny come through Unscathed & Iwobi continues to impress! – #FACupAFC2BFC1
Another Arsenal win in the bag, another sigh of relief at the final whistle. It wasn’t the most convincing win, nor was it the most unconvincing either. There were moments of Arsenal possession and domination whilst creating some chances; there was some purpose in the Gunners’ play till the first goal. Burnley’s equalizer was, of […]
