Chelsea 1 – 2 Arsenal

Chelsea 1 – 2 Arsenal thumbnail

It’s so quiet, it’s so quiet, it’s so quiet, at the Bridge.  And it was, as the ground was more than half empty before the final whistle as the mighty Gunners were winning 2-1! Confidence was mixed before the game, no one really knew what to expect.  A win like the Manq match, or another [...]


COME ON YOU GOONERS

COME ON YOU GOONERS thumbnail

A great bonus ahead of tomorrow’s game at Slumford Bridge, Eduardo made his comeback in a behind closed doors friendly, what a great comeback it would be for the Croat’ to make it back only 10 months after having his leg shattered by Brum scum. I don’t know anything about the game at the moment [...]

Pundits / ChavSki / Ivan / English grit thumbnail

Lets start with those people we all love to hate: the media pundit. On Thursday Sky Sports News (SSN) had David Platt waffling on about this weekends game V the Chavs, what was one of his many great predictions? Our weak defence would find it hard to cope with Dogbra, as he always causes us [...]


Chelski wherever you may be, we are gonna come and batter you Sunday

Chelski wherever you may be, we are gonna come and batter you Sunday thumbnail

A win to start the week off nicely, Sagna, Adebayor, and Nasri could be fit to finish it off in style and get us right back on the money. Cesc is in positive mood and why not now he’s in charge on the pitch he can lead the boys to glory. I am well up [...]

As Block19er has stated in his match report not the best game of football we have seen last night,though the 3 points in the bag as well as guaranteed qualification is the most important thing. It has been an interesting as well as dissapointing couple of weeks to say the least.The critics and the boo boys [...]


Arsenal 1 – 0 Dynamo Kyiv

Arsenal 1 – 0 Dynamo Kyiv thumbnail

King Cesc got his Arsenal captaincy off to a winning start against Dynamo Kyiv. It was no way Arsenals best performance, not even close, but it was a win following two horrible defeats. It was also qualification to the knockout stages of the champions league which is fantastic. Avoiding defeat in Porto will see us [...]


Don’t mention the football

Don’t mention the football thumbnail

I went to the doctors. He said ‘I’d like you to lie on the couch’. I said ‘What for?’ He said ‘I’d like to sweep the floor’ We were coming in to land, and it affects your ears, doesn’t it? The Stewardess gave me chewing gum. I put it in my ear. Took two days [...]


What next?

What next? thumbnail

So much has been written about the current situation at Arsenal all over the media and the web that I’m not sure what to write today.  Yesterday’s loss at Man City futher proved that a large portion of our squad, although talented and young, are incapable of the consistent performances that would be needed to [...]


City 3 – 0 Arsenal

City 3 – 0 Arsenal thumbnail

Fuck! What the hell is going on guys? Arsenal a freefall at the moment and god knows how we are going to stop it. The view from Vegas is bleak. The Gallas storm has really affected us massively but this all started weeks ago and as fans we are out of the loop on what [...]


WAR – What is it good for? Absolutely nothing / Fucking International breaks

WAR – What is it good for? Absolutely nothing / Fucking International breaks thumbnail

Some weeks I can struggle to get something half decent to blog about (you might think that’s true for every week!!). Other week’s things just happen. Like today, & our little willy has come out & said a bit too much for my liking. I am not one of those people that have been questioning [...]


Greetings from Las Vegas

Greetings from Las Vegas thumbnail

As I mop the sweat from my brow and look up the sun drenched strip in Las Vegas I am thinking of you my gooner friends. Off to bed in the freezing cold dreading another Friday at work as the dusk will settle and lights go up. It’s party time!! Back in England Wenger has [...]


What Went Wrong???

What Went Wrong??? thumbnail

After a completely blinding performance against Man Ure the week before and then the Nappy Boys doing us so proud on the Tuesday against Wigan both at Emirates.   I honestly didn’t expect an easy game from Villa as they are a good side and deserve to be where they are,but i didn’t expect us [...]


Still recovering from the weekend

Still recovering from the weekend thumbnail

Go on Joe Swash!! What a character that guy is. All power to the Gooner to win this jungle show. What the hell happened on Saturday? I was expecting us to win well against an under-par Aston Villa. Instead we get well and truly beaten at home for the first time in Ashburton Grove history. I [...]


Mexican Waves – Are they the answer?

Mexican Waves – Are they the answer? thumbnail

SPECIAL NOTICE: Anyone who was at the Emirates Cup or the Carling Cup match against Wigan will have noted the waves that rolled around the ground on both occasions, and the smiles they brought to many faces. Now I am a bit of an old fogey from the Clock End who thinks that the ‘Mexican [...]


We need to sign some big bastards who don’t take any shit and hate to lose

We need to sign some big bastards who don’t take any shit and hate to lose thumbnail

We all know that the cornerstone of a good weekend is a win for the Gunners, so this was another one ruined, and another grumpy Monday morning for all concerned. I thought we were thoroughly outplayed by the Villa on Saturday, and the margin of defeat could have been higher. It started badly as we [...]


Crashing back down to earth

Crashing back down to earth thumbnail

Why does this team only perform in ‘big’ games?  It’s got to be the individual attitudes of the players in my opinion.  I can’t imagine Wenger doing anything different during the week, so it’s got to be down to the mindset of the players as they’re preparing to face Hull instead of Man Utd.  It’s [...]


Arsenal 0 Aston Villa 2

Arsenal 0 Aston Villa 2 thumbnail

Well…this match was all about a lack lustre Arsenal performance, a re-invigorated Villa and a referee that could not manage an under 5’s Sunday league game.  As Block19er commented yesterday 3-1 was a fair pre-match prediction based on the last week’s results. How wrong we were!   This match report was very difficult to write as [...]


Wilkins Boys : Bottle Job

Wilkins Boys : Bottle Job thumbnail

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH You bottle jobs from down the bridge!! Go on Burnley!! Sorry I know it is now Friday but I am still revelling in Burnleys penalty KO of the batty boys from earls court village. It was a pleasure to turn Sky Sports News on to see Burnley players jumping for joy. It was a shame the [...]
