Captain’s Log – Star date Christmas party time Would it be inappropriate to ask Uhura to jingle my bells? Now that the smoke has cleared from the Stoke and Galatasaray games we have a good opportunity to reflect on both results with level heads. One of the reasons I choose to write my blogs towards […]
Here we are, the treatment room is getting empty and players are slowly coming back. That’s quite a strange feeling, isn’t it? After months spent with horrific shortages within the squad, it seems we are finally starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Bar Abou Diaby, Jack Wilshere and Serge Gnabry […]
Captain’s Log star date nearly Christmas. Spock says he has no emotion, and that I should bother buying him anything, but he said the same thing last year and when I didn’t get him a gift the Vulcan pinched me in the balls. 3 wins in a row, but more importantly, 3 clean sheets. A lots has […]
Je ne suis pas d’accord avec ce que vous dites, mais je me battrai jusqu’à la mort pour que vous ayez le droit de le dire – Evelyn Beatrice Hall (also known as S.G. Tallentyre), The Friends of Voltaire I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to […]
See You On The Other Side This will be my last blog until February as I’m about to embark on a well-earned break. An 8-week jaunt around the world via Phuket, England (and my first home game at the Emirates in 6 years), Orlando (for the little ‘un) and LA (for the grown ups). By the […]

We’re through, but does it matter? When I was younger I used to play a football game where there was no Champions League mode. You could create your own competition though, so that’s what I did when I wanted to take the mighty Gunners to European glory. At the time Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea and […]
DB’s Season Diary If you want the rainbow….. A few days ago, in a galaxy just down the road….. It is a period of civil war. Rebel fighters, striking from a hidden internet base, have won their first victory against the evil Arsenal Empire, led by the evil Darth Wenger. During a Twitter debate, rebel […]
Well, that was a pretty good weekend wasn’t it? Missed chances, reckless defending, more Wenger out protests, shirt printing and wine throwing. Never a dull moment at our place. Don’t beat yourself up about it, see a chance to profiteer from it. You know what Enough is Enough. I am a Wenger out person but […]
