Which rival clubs do “local” and “foreign” Gooners hate most?

3rd July 2012 admin

To “foreign” fans, the game largely exists via the media. Livestreaming matches, interacting with fellow and rival fans on Twitter and Facebook, reading blogs and communities. The online aspect of fandom outweighs the physical aspect of it, simply because you don’t come across as many fellow football fans in reality as you do on the Web. So someone living abroad may be more susceptible to

Are you a ‘real’ supporter?

4th April 2012 James 'Raul' Stokes

My point is; it’s physically impossible for everyone to be like that. Those that can’t attend everything, shouldn’t be chastised by others. The footballing world today is a global community. Arsenal have fans in all the corners of the world, made up by a plethora of varying ethnicities. I follow Arsenal because I love them, and because it’s something very

Gnabry On Wilshere’s Fast Train?, Park Scores When He Wants & Left Back vs Left Out

15th March 2012 admin

Jack Wilshere had proved that he was a cut above the older reserve players and eventually made his way into the Arsenal first team squad after a loan to Bolton and an impressive pre season at Arsenal. Gooners who have managed to watch him have been waxing Gnabry played for the reserves last night and according to reports was the best player on the pitch, a pitch that included several first team players. I haven't had the chance to feast my eyes on this hulking, technical beast of an attacking midfielder apart from a few YouTube compilations, as reserve games are no longer shown live *Grrr* I used to watch all the games when they were on Arsenal TV

Why We Should See Tonight As An Opportunity And Not A Problem

16th August 2011 admin

A Cesc-less team may be doubt-inducing for some but it’s what we have to work with, and every important win chips away at that doubt like a tiny grinning woodpecker. So if you ever feel the doubt coming back just picture the woodpecker chipping away and picture the doubt as John Terry’s eyes and you’ll find yourself smiling and humming a fabulous little ditty in no time at

What is the word from the Arsenal fans on the street?

8th August 2011 Muppet Gooner

Ze position is simple. spend da dough and match ze numba of players goin out wiv ze numba of players comin in. at da moment, ze numbers no match. we ship clichy to shitty and it checks dig eboue to turkey. almunia iz gone back to da circus. now, me no wicked at arithmetic but dat means we need 3 players already. jenkinson dont count cos he scored an own goal from outside da area. gervinho needs a air cut. so we iz of da opinion dat we still need 5 players. now, we all knowz dat brazil is da wickedest

Your Vision – 12th Man? My Arse!

15th May 2011 admin

How can we scream at our players for giving up before the game has finished when the ground is less than half full by the time the final whistle goes? People were leaving the ground on Sunday 15 minutes before time. 15 MINUTES!!! There was a steady of stream of people leaving as soon as there was 10 minutes left. I know it's a pain in the arse queuing for the tube after a game but come on people

Formations, Line ups & Rival squads

2nd December 2010 admin

Imagine we had bloody Bebe in our squad, getting games. Wenger would be absolutely crucified for buying him for £7 million, especially when someone like Van der Vaart would have done the world of good for them at almost the same price. For those who were screaming for Wenger to be sacked last week, I would genuinely like to know your thoughts on the quality of our rivals when they have lost badly. Like the Mancs on Tuesday and Chelsea losing 3-0 to Sunderland at home. Is this just a blip

Aston Villa (a) Post Match Thoughts: Fab-less trio pass Gunners to victory

28th November 2010 admin

Andrey Arshavin had played his best game since we won at Partizan Belgrade, we were witnessing the player we broke our transfer record for. He was heavily involved in our build up, he was running at Villa

Coping without spine, Complacency & Rotation

25th November 2010 admin

I am of the opinion that the minimum requirement of being an Arsenal registered player is to give 100% in every game you play in for every minute. That is both on the field of play and on the training ground. If you do not have that then move aside until you do have that installed in your mind, if lessons are not learnt then you will be replaced with someone who can

Braga (a) Thoughts & Predictions: Desire & pride needs to bust out in Braga

23rd November 2010 admin

Rosicky couldn't make the difference when he came on at the weekend but hopefully he will be raring to go probably from the left attacking position. He is more than due a goal and I am backing him to get his name on the score sheet at some
