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 […]
Gunners Town/ Campo Retro FA Cup Final Competition – win a classic retro Arsenal shirt!
On May 30th, 2015, Arsenal will have the opportunity to defend their FA Cup title at Wembley against Aston Villa. This will be Arsenal’s 19th Cup Final appearance (11 wins; 7 losses) – which is a new record; it will be Aston Villa’s 11th appearance (7 wins;3 losses). Should Arsenal be successful, this […]
Ramsey stakes a claim to central berth as Santi fades after Wenger’s subs inspire comeback
Well this is awkward. We all know how people tend to overlook the performance in the context of the result. Of course, it’s fair to say this is mostly wrong: down the years Arsenal fans have seen good performances aplenty only to see the Gunners consequently lose the match. Many started supporting Arsenal for the […]
Arsenal’s Summer Shopping List – it’s longer than you thought…
It’s that time of the year again. Though the transfer window will only open in 6 weeks, the transfer mill is already churning out rumours and boasting actual signings. Depay will start next season in United colours after the Red Devils bought him for a ridiculous £31 million and Dybala (our long-rumoured target) […]
The defeat by Swansea proved that Arsenal CAN win the League not that we can’t
The defeat I was as surprised by the Swansea defeat as anyone, but I was more surprised by some of the fans reactions afterwards. I don’t consider myself an AKB, and certainly earlier on in the season I thought Wenger should go, but I’ve come to realise that perhaps I was wrong and I thought […]
May The Fourth Be With United – Arsenal Need To Bounce Back At Old Trafford
Match Preview by Alex Baguzin Hi everyone. It’s United away on Sunday and it’s hard not to look at this game as crucial to our hopes of finishing second. As we know, our defeat to Swansea left our fate out of our hands. We now trail second-placed City by 3 points with a game in […]

So… What really happened against Swansea?!
I was fortunate to not have seen this match live. I have, however, heard and read all about it. Statistically, this is Arsenal’s worst result vs. Swansea – further reading shows that we had not lost to Swansea at home since before 1981, back in the Highbury days. So, what happened? It was a […]
O Feo, O Feo, Wherefore Art Thou Feo? The Walcott tragedy unfolds…
O Romeo, O Romeo, Wherefore Art Thou Romeo? This famous line is uttered by Juliet, in Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, to herself in a state of dichotomy – she loves a man who she must not because of his lineage; a rival family. Why does he have to be Romeo? If he was anyone else, […]
