The 113th Football Oscars – 2014 It’s that time of year again, when we roll out the red carpet, pop the Man of the Match champagne, and pay homage to the great and the good, and the truly terrible of the season to date. A chance for the players and managers and commentators alike, to […]
Rocky’s Round Up: February At the end of last month’s blog, I said that if we were first or one or two points off the top at the start of March with 10 games left then we could anticipate an exciting end to the season. Well after what can only be described as a disappointing […]
Week Twenty Nine – Anyone Fancy a Pint? Welcome to the Twitter Arms So, losing to Stoke, being four points off the top, overtaken by Liverpool and the end of our season. Fun weekend, eh?

May 2013…June 2013…July 2013…August 2013… Where are the signings at, Arsene […]
You know what really gets on my tits? Moobs, I mean moobs. Oh for crying out loud, I mean pecs. That’s right. I meant pecs. Muscly pecs. What really, really, really gets on my nerves is when a player is written off faster than my old Peugeot 205. Now I wrote that motor off fast. […]
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.
