“Time for a new UCI…
1. Spurs - Tied for the top of the table! Still crap.
2. Portugeuse Football - Bumped out of the World Cup early, and couldn’t even get one club in the Champions League.
3. Umbro - Makers of the Zyklon soccer boot. By the way, Zyklon is the name of a nerve gas the Nazis used.
4. Celtic - No Champs League this year, but a Scottish League Championship no doubt. Woohoo!
5. Brian Clough - This needs a bit of explaining. In the September issue of FourFourTwo magazine he refers to Arsenal as one of ManU’s main challengers for the title. Brian,...

TV:Pay-per-view (also available at selected pubs)
Radio: arsenal.com
Arsenal: 1st (7 points)Chelsea: 5th (5 points)The Kentucky Gunner, Ken Bradley, previews the boys from Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea, as a football club, are in a self destruct mode. Preseason players who were off-loaded (Dalla Bona and Jokanovic) describe the team as in “”financial meltdown.”" No off season talent was brought in and rumors circulate constantly of their best players being sold for cash in order to erase debt. Then add Chairman Ken...

“Naggi Asmar is mad as hell, and he’s not going to take it anymore!
Rick,In my mind, the UCI has got to go to ArsenalFC and Arsenal.com, which has decided to try to wring as much money as possible out of all the fans.
* The new away kit is still a very sorry sight. I really believe that we would have beaten West Ham if we did not look like a bunch of Pepsi cans. I know this was on the UCI before, but it has to be repeated.
* Paying for crappy radio commentary and low quality-of-service is not what I have in mind. First they do a disservice to all overseas fans by prohibiting...

“The EINY comes correct with mad flava in his latest opus…
Well it would seem it’s been a while since ol’ EINY’s been on AA and there’s been quite a bit of reading I’ve had to catch up on and make a few “”musings”" on so here goes…… this whole Junichi Inamoto goal scoring binge he’s been on, does anyone REALLY think he’d be such a poacher if he was still at Arsenal? Come on, it’s not like he’s all of a sudden become the 2nd coming of Anders Limpar or something, he’s playing for Fulham in the...

“David Connick nominates Edu for the award…
I think maybe we need to consider an early season iron balls award to Edu. Here’s a young player, in what must still be to him a strange country, who Le Boss almost dumped last year. Then, due to injury crises he gets his chance in the run-in, makes a ball winning type of contribution and then finds in the off-season that we’ve bought another Brazilian who could well oust him. Yet so far he’s keeping his head up, playing with aggression and fighting to keep his place. I like his attitude and think it should be recognized.
–Fair...

“While the title above may be a Morrissey song, here’s an ode to the ManU hard man to the tune of Queen’s “”Bohemian Rhapsody”" sent in by Lawrence Emanuel…
Roy Keane-ian Rhapsody
Mama, just kicked a man.
There’s a screw loose in my head,
Because I tried to break his leg,
Fergie, the seasons just begun,
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away!
Forlan! Ooh -ooh - ooh,
Makes me want to sigh!
We’d score more goals with Sid James or Kenneth Williams,
Carry On, Camping,
The whole teams just in tatters.
Too...
