Congratulations Chelsea Football Club
I may have been a little hasty to dare criticise Chelsea's Champions League triumph and the quite delectable way in which this fine football club has been managed under the fine and principled leadership of the most benevolent of dictators, Roman A...
A dark day for football
Money can certainly buy trophies, but can it buy you class, respect and dignity? Not judging from Chelsea's performance tonight. Another extremely lucky result from a side that played some of the most dire and defensive football possible, and ...
RVP, our scum support and eleven Yossis
I have been away and unable to blog for the last week, and I must say that I enjoyed my holiday considerably more after we had managed to secure 3rd spot by squeezing past West Brom by the narrowest of margins. It wasn't brilliant any means, but the ...
One thing on my mind
I do not care for transfer gossip, I prefer to concentrate on the here and now, and that is why 3 points this weekend is absolutely massive in many ways for the club.
The game needs no hype, holding on to third spot is essential for the club to bui...
The simple analysis – repeated naive errors
I do not want to get carried away with the doom and negativity. Our recent dropped points must be seen in context of some excellent results earlier in the year, while the deep problems in our squad are not something that can be quickly remedied overn...
Complacent and arrogant? Again and again
I have lost count of the number of times that we have come unstuck against the weaker sides this season, it is staggeringly frustrating. We have beaten all the top sides other than ManU but we keep making the same mistake, that mistake being that...
Frustrated, gutted and defensively not good enough
Today's game summed up our season. There was some incisive attacking football, we could have scored way more than the 3 goals we ended up with. There was also some terrible defending as a unit. Typically there was some absolutely awful refereeing...
Gary Lineker is a weak coward who cannot bear to apologise
Firstly I would just like to keep this all in an appropriate context, Gary Lineker's pathetic attempts at mocking Arsene Wenger are not a massive deal, but they are certainly something that should not be ignored and for this reason I just want to ra...
Podolski + Lineker coverage – and over a million site hits
What a fantastic start to a summer that I hope shall see several transfers of top quality talent into the Arsenal. The board and manager know that the shambles of last summer cannot be repeated, and the early signing of Lukas Podolski is a very e...
BBC and Lineker sink to new lows
The behaviour of Stoke fans was bad enough yesterday in itself. Aaron Ramsey was abused by a majority of brainless Stoke fans for daring to have his leg broken by the aggressive Ryan Shawcross' reckless tackling, while Arsene Wenger was abused...
Stoke City fans: I hope you’re proud
Firstly the game, a point gained given Newcastle's spanking at Wigan and Stoke's decent home record against top sides. Still, we comprehensively outplayed Stoke for the vast majority of the game, and a mixture of bad refereeing, poor finishing an...
Well done Chelsea – UEFA’s rent boys lose
I am no Chelsea fan but one has to see the positive in tonight's result that sees Barcelona go crashing out of the Champions League against all the odds. It was just fantastic to see Barcelona's cheating not pay.
Many of us Gooners went on about the...
