Reader Comments: A Review

Apparently it’s not appropriate for a guy who writes a blog to speak his mind, especially when it comes to a certain player’s future with our illustrious club. I’m talking about Fabregas.
Let’s look at some reader comments shall we?

They want our captain and playmaker, he is under contract for 3 more years and [...]

Lets not be Delusional: Cesc is Going to Barcelona

The writing is on the wall. Barcelona want Cesc. Cesc wants Barcelona. This is the way it was a year ago, this is still the way it is now. Wenger managed to persuade Fabregas to stay for just one more season, but given the same-old lackluster could-have-been-a-trophy performance, he has no reason to stay.
We have [...]

I can’t believe how many news stories I’ve seen over the past couple of days analyzing Arsenal. Our beloved club has become the foremost subject of scrutiny.

How many ex-Gunners does it take…

Happy Birthday Lukasz Fabianski

I don’t really know where to start. Everything seemed to be going so well for our makeshift squad as we were 2-0 up against a woeful Wigan in the 80th minute. That should really be the end of the story. Unfortunately, the B team we had on the pitch forgot to finish the game and [...]

Tottenham’s New Unforgettable Product Line

In the wake of Tottenham’s unfortunate, lucky, and regrettable 2-1 victory over Arsenal, they have released a number of products to both memorialize their efforts and squeeze everything they can out of their fan base. I didn’t know Spurs fans had money to spend outside of fish and chips and terrible beer.
Below I have gathered [...]

Robin Van Persie Defies Me

How dare he! Yesterday I wrote a short blurb about Van Persie and how much I would be SHOCKED if he actually played at all against Tottenham. I presumed all the rumors were just made up stories to attract attention. Well, I appear to have successfully reverse jinxed us because more and more reports of [...]

Possible Takeover in progress? But RVP is back!

As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, Lady Bracewell-Smith is looking into the option of selling her shares of Arsenal stock.
Phew. That was a lot of links. It’s like Google news or something. I hope you didn’t click any of them.
Anyways, this rumored sell-off of 15.9% of the sum of Arsenal shares could create some [...]
