That’s not my prediction at the top. But if we’re gonna lose let’s wait until Noriwch away. That way we’d have broken another record held by Nottm forest - most games unbeaten - 42.

For the past four years, we either play Everton on the opening day or last day. Just crazy little known fact.

Lets pray to whatever power each one of us believes that no one gets hurt throughout the rest of these Euro’s and the subsequent friendlies(Easy, Paddy, easy) so that we can attack these fixtures with full strength.
And if and when we get beat (that one time!), lets hope its one of our ex-patriots who seals it.
Holy crap…OWEN JUST SCORED!

Last season our first two games were Everton and Middlesbrough who just happen to be our first two games this coming season as well. Maybe this is the sign of another UNBEATEN season;)

I honestly believe Kelvin that with the start we have this coming season that it will be a LONG, LONG, LOOOOOOOONNNNNNG time before we taste defeat in the league again.

I think the schedule is kind to the Arsenal. No way will gunners go undefeated again this year. I to hope we can make it the few games to pass Nottingham but that’s about as good as we can expect. I can remember AW talking in the past about how seasons are completely different depending on whether there was a summer tournament, players are burned out and are not ready to fight from the start. Except for the week of Apr 16-23, I thnk the last 12 games or so look straight forward . Personally I think we will have so-so first half and then come strong in second half of season.
