We are still without our superb Match reviewer who returns next week for West Ham so I thought I would step in again with some player ratings instead. It was a hugely enjoyable performance from Arsenal yesterday and the only disappointments came off the pitch and not on it. The 7th minute response to Rocky […]
I often post the GT blogs in Arsenal Fan Groups on Facebook and they often prove popular and frequently cause some debate. Nowhere is the debate stronger and more lively than in the Arsenal Away Boyz Group. Alex Field is one of the most active group members and today Alex sent me a response to […]
No question it is a difficult time to be an Arsenal supporter. Things are not easy. There are a number of problems. We are under-achieving. This was to be our year. We were settled – funds at our disposal, just signed a top keeper and the season beckoned. But we have fallen short. Premature to […]
We are welcoming a new writer to Gunners Town and how timely that his first article assesses the impact of Mo Elneny, just as he scoops the Arsenal Player of the Month award – Luke Smith @thegoonerway So the newly added Egyptian midfielder that joined us in January hasn’t hit the headlines big early on […]
If you are an Arsenal fan born in the mid-1960s – as I was – you were probably a tad late to truly latch onto a favourite player in the 1971 Double winning side. Although for obvious reasons I have latched onto Geordie Armstrong. There is something about the combination of flair with a work […]

Sky Sports Germany and many other media outlets are sure: Granit Xhaka will be a Gunner next summer. I don’t know how reliable the source is but rumors are getting stronger and stronger, so perhaps there is something solid behind them. There’s no smoke without fire, they say. Who is Granit Xhaka, by the way? […]
The lion’s share of our fans’ disappointment at how this season is shaping out to be is linked with a simple fact: our traditional rivals are underperforming. City and United are 4th and 5th respectively, while Chelsea sit in 10th place. In a campaign where all the big boys are struck with such a malaise, […]
Having frequently criticised Arsene in the past, there will undoubtedly be some members of our fan base who will hold the view that supporters like me, who openly question our manager, take some form of enjoyment from seeing him come under increasing pressure from fans and the media. However, the reality is that the sadness […]
Alex Iwobi and the new formation JK Hornsby has announced a new series of books, this time plotting the footballing education of a Nigerian born teenager, living in North London.
