Gunners Fair is back with more news from the Arsenal Ladies camp. With both the Champions League and 2014 fixture dates announced, there is a real sense of pre-season before it all kicks off. Arsenal Ladies play Birmingham City Ladies in the Champions League quarter-finals – the first leg is at St. Andrews Stadium on […]
Saturday June 14. That date will be significant for most English males, and Italians too, as that marks the opening day of the World Cup for those nations. The most important game takes place on this date as England battle Italy in their first Group D fixture, before facing Uruguay and Costa Rica in the […]
We reached 100 Red Cards Result aside, The Arsenal and Arsene Wenger achieved a landmark on Wednesday. Wojciech Szczesny became the 100th player to be sent off during Arsene’s tenure and to mark this momentous occasion, below is TheSundayMorningGooner’s homage. (Old Skool song, but think it works?) WE’VE REACHED 100 RED CARDS (Lyrics by TheSundayMorningGooner, […]
Week Twenty Eight – What a difference a game makes As I’ve said before, the whole reason I write this season diary is to look at how our moods and reactions change over the course of the season, which they do on not just a weekly basis, but by the day, hour, minute and second as […]
Well what a week it has been for the Arsenal. Both on and off the field we’ve experienced ups and downs over the past 10 days or so, but it’s ended with a rather satisfying climax, culminating in a sunny Saturday at the Emirates involving Dennis Bergkamp, superb goals and a nice easy win over […]

After a thoroughly tense FA Cup win against Liverpool, during which, deep into the second half, I am sure my anus collapsed in on itself through sheer anxiety, Arsenal had to combat arguably the best football team of the 21st century. A Pep Guardiola-led Bayern Munich side who now threaten to […]
Apologies for a one-off non-football related post today, but there is still the Greg Cross Column to come this afternoon. However, Gunners Town feels that it is highly appropriate and critical to bring you this information regarding the battle against cancer. As we’re sure many of you have experienced yourself, Gunners Town are not alone […]
Another nightmare evening in the Champions League for English football brought with it another controversial red card decision, as Arsenal stopper, Wojciech Szczesny, saw red for a challenge on Arjen Robben in the closing stages of the first half while Bayern scalped a 2-0 victory at the Emirates. The resultant spot-kick, taken by David Alaba, […]
The week’s passed by and we are just hours away from our next Champions League knockout phase. It’s been a long time since we haven’t reached the next round of the Champions League. Before a match against the current cup holders it’s time to take that into account and get praised for it. I know we won’t as we are […]
Arsene Wenger: A Successful Failure? Josie Mourinho came back to the Premier League claiming he’d turned a new leaf. A more humane, more palatable version than the one that graced us with his presence 10 years ago. But true to form, when the going gets tough, the mouth gets going.
