‘A case not ready for court’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective By Mike McDonald Over the last 40 years I have become a big fan of true crime TV. I’ve wondered for a while as to why I like it. Should I be worried? It all started with Miss Marple. Still in my […]

‘What if…..?’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective “Do I want to step into possible foolishness” Me, last night. The score against Palace in the Cup was good/possibly bad.
