Does Arsene Wenger feel the fans pain as divisions re-emerge? Of Course he does!
It has been a tough week after what can be best described as 2 ‘tired and uninspired’ displays by the Gunners. The divisions in our fan base are swiftly returning to social media.Wenger’s team selection and tactics are sharply back in focus as we rush head long into what we all hope will be a […]
Number 13 proved lucky for impotent Arsenal against Sunderland. But who will save us in the FA Cup?
TBIF – The Weekly Gunners Town Crew Review Friday The 22nd May, 2015 Welcome to Thank Bergkamp It’s Friday – where members of the Gunners Town writing team gather to take a look at the Arsenal week that’s just passed. It’s a simple format, really – each week, a smattering of our eclectic scribes will select a HERO, a VILLAIN, a HIGHLIGHT, and a LOWLIGHT from […]
Time to rest Ramsey, Sanchez, Cazorla and Giroud all dead on their feet against Sunderland – But for who? MOZART Please!
If you came here today to see me bemoan the dropped points, you can turn right around because I won’t. I probably would have done that had we lost, but when your team attacks for 90 minutes out of 95, manages 28 shots and has 76% possession, well, that’s what I call an effort and […]
A is for Arsenal and A is Wenger’s Plan – There is no Plan B but Kondogbia is it.
I think that we can all agree that last night’s match was dreadful to watch. Sunderland came to the Emirates with only one idea: stifle the match and earn the draw that they needed to stay up. Sadly, it seemed that Arsenal only arrived with one idea too: pass it around the edge of the […]
A Sorry Tale of The Media, Pundits and Gooners! – Are we just too sensitive?
I started writing this the day after the draw with United. Wrote a bit, then stopped, pondered for a day and a half whether this is relevant or not. Saw some tweets and posts on fan forums on Facebook which convinced me to go ahead and complete this! I still may be risking ridicule by […]
Arsene and the team keep telling us they have matured – After the past week they need to prove it!
Those (very brave) of you who read my column every week already know this: I am one of the most optimistic Gooners you’ll come across. No matter what the result or the outcome of a game, I’ll find some positives. I was not really worried when we conceded defeat to Swansea at home, I saw […]
Game time for Walcott, Wilshere and Sczcezny at Emirates tonight
We face Sunderland today in what will be the last match in the 37th round of Premier League games. Man, time really flies. One minute you were scrapping a win against Palace with a late Aaron Ramsey winner, next thing you know there are two league games left to play. Luckily for us, we also […]
This Arsenal side has the best team spirit since the Invincibles – Victoria Concordia Crescit
“Key for me was the all-togetherness. What I liked about that team was the unselfishness of everybody. Everybody was willing to give the ball to the guy in the better position. The generosity of that team was outstanding, and we always wanted to share with each other. And that’s something that is pretty rare.” – […]

Participants learn to coach with the Arsenal in the Community team in north London before having the opportunity to travel abroad. Coaches are currently in […]
A 20 year Double or Quits bet on St Totteringham’s Day? – Hindsight’s a BITCH!!
HINDSIGHT IS A BITCH !!!! Putting aside the disappointment (& reality check) of last Monday’s defeat at the hands of Swansea and the satisfying (if not slightly frustrating) draw with Manure, I thought I would further relive our 20th St Totteringham Day and review our superiority over the wannabee’s from Middlesex. Below is a track […]
