Gonzalo Higuain; Great stats but is he just a flat track bully?
Michael Jeffares Column Another week passes by and still no signings. It’s not a concern at present, as there’s still two full calendar months before the transfer window will come to an end. That said the most publicised rumour has to be that of Gonzalo Higuain. He is a potential signing that has caused a […]
Arsenal Legend breaks England record ahead of Crunch Campaign
Gunners Fair After a fabulous job by Amanda last week, I’m afraid you are stuck with me again. Women’s club football is still on a summer break and there isn’t a whole lot of exciting news.

Gonzalo Higuain gives hope in 14-day medical nightmare
Far Side View A slight deviation from the norm, with everything that as gone on in my life over the past fortnight, I thought I’d do a ‘diary’ blog. So here goes. Monday 10th June: 10pm – Long weekend over, they give us a day for the Queen’s birthday here, it’s great, quick look on […]
Drinking with Tomas Rosicky, Laughing at Tottenham and signing Gonzalo Higuain
Pre-Season Diary In Week One of these diaries I explained how my main aim was to diarise the “rollercoaster” of emotions we go through as fans during the close season. I wanted to show how we go from one extreme to the other from week to week and sometimes, on weeks such as this one, […]
