Where were you when Wenger left? For all Gooners, I guess it was a seismic moment when we heard that we left. It’s like when US President JFK died. For many years afterwards, people often used to recall where they were when they heard he was assassinated. My JFK moment involved aid from a […]
If we are to believe all the rumours about the race to replace our departing Manager, the club have narrowed it down to Allegri and Arteta. It would be fair to say that if you were led to believe that Allegri was the frontrunner and ready for a new managerial challenge, which he may well […]
Huddersfield Town 0-1 Arsenal – Premier League review. A bientôt, Monsieur Wenger. So we got a win away from home, at last. And a good way to end Mr Wenger’s illustrious tenure at our football club. It was an ironic end, which Arsene himself alluded to as ourselves and Huddersfield share Herbert Chapman as […]
So it’s Wenger’s final game…..ever. It’s a sad occasion. I’ve wanted him out for a while, but then he is a giant in our club. He got a great send-off for his final league game at home. So we need to give him a win, and to stop our bad away form, at least. This […]
Our world has been turned upside down of late. We have been witness to our club toeing the line between the emotional release surrounding Arsene’s resignation and renewed optimism about to be instilled by a new manager.

With two matches left of a disappointing, yet historic season, Arsenal make the first of two away trips to end the campaign. The Emirates party to send our existing Manager off was well-intentioned and well-executed but now most Gunners’ minds are already on the future. A new manager, new players, departing players and the beautiful […]
Well, “the King is dead, long live the King”. The phrase that is well known when the Monarch dies and a new one takes his place. Unlike the replacement of a monarch, in our case, there will be no death to trigger the replacement or no election to replace him. Instead Kroenke, the King maker […]
Have you ever decided, “Bugger it, I’ve had enough, I’m jacking it all in.” Stormed up to your boss, slapped your resignation on his (or hers) desk, flipped them the bird, stomped out of the office, abusing everybody you hate on the way out. Only, once you get to your car, you start thinking, “Oh […]
The Invisibles, Henry and Ozil On Sunday, it was one of the most emotional days in the history of Arsenal football club, as the club and its fans bid Arsene Wenger Adieu at The Emirates. Fans and players alike were given an opportunity to pay respect, saying thank you for all the great man has […]
