What should Arsenal prefer; Premier League title or Champions League crown?
“Brits and the Yanks: Them’s Fightin’ Words” Firstly, let me preface this with a few things. This is my first column for Gunners Town, which means you are welcome to mock, ridicule and/or make japes at me with my full licence, permission and encouragement.

Crystal Palace 0 Arsenal 2 – Superb Szczesny Keeps Arsenal In Pole Position Arsenal continued their strong form away from home with a 2-0 victory against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park yesterday.

Cesc Fabregas, Ian Holloway, Nicklas Bendtner to start and Squad Rotation – Crystal Palace vs. Arsenal
Following Ian Holloways sacking after Monday night’s defeat at home to Fulham, we travel to Selhurst Park looking to put Dortmund out of our minds.

Me, Internationals, Tiki-Taka, and talking crappa !!
Well I haven’t got a lot to talk about really (haha famous last words).. Just a few bits and bobs to brush over, a little bit of house-keeping. Of course I could talk about the weekends action, except I find that I revert to making goo goo noises when I watch or talk about it, […]
