Revenge is Sweet. Isn't It?

05:21 AM, Tuesday, 26 August 2008

We were all bored to tears with the drama that was, between Cronaldo, Man United and Real Madrid. Well, little did Madrid know, but they alienated one of their key, creative players in the process, little Robinho. Robinho was offered to Manchester United as part of the CRon deal, to...

One Week to go...

08:25 PM, Monday, 25 August 2008

Well reading around the blogging world yesterday and this morning it does seem that all Arsenal fans are likely to commit suicide or, at least, kick their cat* if we don't sign someone (or more) in the last week of the transfer window. You can understand the fear, we did after all... Posted by BaselGooner · Comments (0) Topics: Arsenal,Xabi Alonso,Gareth Barry

Chemistry and alchemy

07:47 AM, Monday, 18 August 2008

Gentlemen, start your engines. And we're off. To a sluggish start, it must be said. But this was never going to be an easy match and we got three points away from home against a much improved Sunderland. I can see them troubling other big teams at the stadium of light this year. We... Posted by Red_in_Dublin · Comments (3) Topics: Fernando Torres,Xabi Alonso,Robbie Keane,Andrea Dossena,Sunderland,Middlesbrough,Borja Valero,Premier League

Sub Standard

09:03 AM, Friday, 15 August 2008

0-0 last night and a terrible game. We were shit. Pepe was one of the few to take any credit out of the match by saving a peno. We looked slow, sloppy and nervy. We can and will have to play much much better than that against Sunderland and in the second leg against Liege. This is Anfiel...

There may be trouble ahead, part 3?

08:43 PM, Monday, 11 August 2008

This is very worrying. The fact that Xabi is staying and Barry isn't signing for £18m doesn't bother me much. I love Xabi and am thrilled he's staying. Would have been terrible to see him in an Arsenal shirt. IF he plays this Wed then he's definitely staying. I do rate Barry and think he...

Glasgow agog as Gers gubbed

10:13 PM, Monday, 04 August 2008

Chain chasing at melwood this week. I've two friendlies and four goals to report on this sunny bank holiday Monday in Dublin. The Villareal match was pretty boring. It was arranged as part of the Riena deal a few years back. It had the look of a friendly about it,...

Badge kissing my arse - Xabi Alonso linked

07:31 PM, Monday, 04 August 2008

Bank holiday Monday greetings to you all. So Hamburg won the Emirates Cup yesterday. Their 3-0 victory over Juventus meant Arsenal had to beat Real Madrid by 4 goals which was never going to happen. In the end it was just the 1-0 to the Arsenal but it was a... Posted by arseblog · Comments (1184) Topics: Xabi Alonso,Pre-season,badge snogging twats

Juve Set To End Alonso Chase

04:40 AM, Tuesday, 08 July 2008

According to reports in Italy, Juventus are set to drop their interest in Xabi Alonso after growing frustrated at the lack of progress during negotiations with Liverpool.                         &nbs... Posted by KeCiK · Comments (0) Topics: Liverpool,Rumours and Transfers,Xabi Alonso

Finally, some news to report

12:08 AM, Sunday, 06 July 2008

Just like the renegade master, I'm back once again. Andrea Dossena is thrilled to be signing for us. He declares that we're a great team and who am I to argue. I think that he'll do well this year. Capello rates him highly apparently. Riise is thrilled to be signing for...

Home finale

08:40 PM, Friday, 09 May 2008

I'm very late with my post this week. The weather in Dublin has been great and I got a bit distracted by the sunshine and sights of the city. Maybe my passion for football was drained somewhat by the champions league exit. This is the first time that our season has been effectively...
