A Swede indeed in our hour of need – Arsenal Unsung Hero
Ah, the halcyon days of youth. I almost remember them well… It was Summer 1994, and myself and my younger brother had just watched our first full World Cup (my parents’ dislike of football meant that Italia 90 went under our radar until the semi-final stage, when, at my grandparents’ house – my dear Northern […]
Is Further Spending now the key to Arsenal’s Premier League Success in 2015/16?
17th May 2014. The time is 17:08. Arsenal, looking for their first trophy win in nine years are 2-0 at Hull after eight minutes.

I have a heart felt plea, a plea that Arsene must adhere to, for the future of the club. ‘Arsene Wenger, please retire, please retire the number 9 shirt!!!’ It’s destroying careers and undermining the club.
