When it rains it pours and on Sunday the heavens opened on Arsenal FC creating a downpour many have never felt before. Dev has already covered off the events of Sunday but the aftermath of THAT substitution still rumbles on. Many of the players have leapt to the defence of our manager, RVP has gone [...]

What a world-wind weekend that was. The Oxlade Chamberlain debacle has overshadowed the whole weekend. A weekend where Man City beat Sp*rs and Man United beat us to make it a two horse race at the top of the table and make it a massive up-hill climb for us, now in 5th and needing a [...]
It’s a big one… a decisive one… for both clubs… But for us, it’s a last chance saloon in what seems to be a collapse of any premier league ambition. For Arsenal, a club that has never finished outside the top four, and having lost our last two games in the league, it’s a very [...]
Morning Gooners, So here we are again, everyone is bickering and licking their wounds over another painful away defeat and I still don’t have broadband at home. The Swansea defeat has invoked the sinking feeling we had back in August (maybe it has something to do with the transfer window). Bringing in the new year [...]
Arsene Wenger normally defends his players, looks at the circumstances, the refereeing decisions, so it’s very unlike him to “have a go” at his squad… but that’s exactly what he has done in the last day or two after the defeat at Swansea. I’ll start today’s blog with his quote: “That’s now twice – at [...]
Seven losses this season before the end of January makes it a very worrying time for Arsenal at the moment. Having never been out of the top four in the Arsene Wenger era, we’re very very close to it happening this season, without doubt. The 7 losses this season have been: Swansea 3 – 2 [...]
The Premiership status quo returned on the weekend with Chelsea scraping a 1-0 win and Sp*rs and Liverpool unable to win at home… There has been a lot of debate over Sp*rs current form and also how Liverpool will challenge us for the top four… What is obvious, especially after today, is that all the [...]
In the last week or so, our inabilities to pick up points during the Christmas period has left a lot of us quite disheartened. Coupled with Tottenham’s good form, the top four is looking like a target that is slipping away. Under the Wenger era, we haven’t finished outside of the top four yet, despite [...]
There are some of life’s ‘necessities’ in the 21st century you can not go with out… Sky TV, a telephone line and broadband. Ok I sound a little spoilt but the lack of broadband has prevented me in writing up my usual piece for WOA and I’ve now been reduced to sacrificing my lunch break [...]
Today’s blog is a little late… but as Thierry says… better late than never. It was an amazing night for all Arsenal fans, and a night to be remembered for a hero’s welcome, the return of a legend and a great inspirational night. Thierry Henry loves the club, he was a quality footballer, and still [...]
Tomorrow, we face Leeds in the FA Cup… and tomorrow also marks the return of Thierry Henry to the playing squad. I am a massive fan of Henry – he is a legend – but I kind of feel that the return of the former hero is overshadowing everything else at the moment. There are [...]
