An early goal from Edu was cancelled out by a first-half Crespo strike. Arsenal grab all three points when Henry bangs home the winner in the 75th thanks to a rare gaffe from Cudicini.
Arsenal beat Newcastle, Liverpool and Chelsea and draw, at Old Trafford, with Man United. Excellent.
I was very critical of the Arsenal about a month ago and figured we would get six, rather than 10 out of 12 points. Could on ya’ Gunners.

This is going to be absolutely kick ass. The flag, white with a red cross (St. George’s style) will say “Arsenal America” in white letters across the red horizontal stripe. In the upper left quadrant will be the U.S. flag. Lower right quadrant will be the Canadian flag. Lower left will be the old-style cannon, upper right will be the new-style cannon. These will all be sewn on, no cheap silk screening. The flag will be 10 feet wide, five feet high.
Of course, this flag doesn’t happen without all of you. The donations were tremendous. This flag truly belongs to...

Jon does a terrific job of balancing his obvious affection for Arsenal with not being afraid to uncover some of the more seemly aspects of our...

A tourist is in North London one Saturday and he decides he would very much like to go to a football match, so he asks a man in the street if there are any local matches being played that afternoon.
“Well,” replies the man, “the Arsenal ground is very close but they’re playing away today. If you feel you really must see a match, the Tottenham ground is not that far away. You go straight down this road and you’ll see two queues, a big queue and a small queue.
You should go to the small queue because the big one is for the fish and chip shop.
