We all know the names , the faces, and the stories so what do you think of Manchester United? Of course, this is a huge match. The results securing second or replacing the one who pressures Chelsea. No need for me to try and introduce most of you to a club that some probably have seen more than the Gunners. So, to get things started, I will try to examine the change of play for the Devils and what it means to this match.
I’m not afraid to say, though as blasphemous as it may be, that I loved to watch ManUtd. Perhaps not the sexiest club on the pitch, they still exemplified the...

A rubbish rumor is out there that Cole is going to Chelsea… but it does make me think a bit.
There is also the rumor of Gerrard departing Liverpool for Chelsea.
And then there is that little story about the record MILLIONS lost by Chelsea this season.
So, how much would Chelsea give us for Ash? And if it was say?? $15Mill… should we go for it? We have Gael Clichy waiting in the wings, and he is pretty damned good at imitating Ashley Cole. It would be an interesting opportunity, PROVIDED… we then…
used that money to HIJACK the Gerrard deal....

A bit of an observation from the Wolves match…
Henry - He’s a weird player who seems to only get fired up when he’s angry. Titi spent the first half doing virtually nothing but walk and stand. Nevertheless, after Mike “I-love-Man-U-and-everybody-knows-I-do” Riley robbed Henry’s first goal as usual, Titi turned himself into a lion and was our star man of the second half. By the way, the goal that never was, just like the one against Blackburn a season ago was LEGAL. Michael Oakes dropped the ball before he attempted a goal kick, Henry stole the...

Super scout, the Kentucky Gunner, has turned over the preview to a friend who has been a Wolves fan since the early 80’s. Though he lives and works in Louisville and has his entire life, he is tattooed with Wolves emblems and travels to Wolverhampton every year to catch a few matches. “I don’t know how it started but he is the purest fan I’ve ever met,” says Ken. That’s good enough for me…
Well here we go again another Cup match involving Arsenal who seems to be our bogey team in these situations. And considering Chelsea is almost certain to...

Preview is always KY’s job, but I hope he won’t mind if I have a say on this one as well - the F.A. Cup tie against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Wolves. Mainly because of their promotion run during the late 80s. Once English football giants, they had fallen from grace to as low as the old Division Four. Nevertheless, during the late 80s, they made two successive promotion runs from the old Division Four straight to Division Two in two seasons. And led by a front man named Steve Bull. In one of the seasons, he scored an amazing 49 goals...

Just read a preview of our FA Cup game this weekend on the BBC’s website and it turns out than none other than Mike (always give Man Utd a penalty) Riley will be the referee for the game.
Wonder what type of reception he’ll get at THOF?

Thierry Henry is the main man in a campaign to stamp out RACISM in Football. Its a new campaign supported by the players, with Henry being one of major pitch men. (backed by NIKE)
Its time to stand up, speak up.

Allright, time to stir up another lively debate….
It will soon be time for the players[PFA] to vote on their team of the season. Last season practically all of our team could have made it and most of them did.
Being honest and trying to accept the fact that not everyone is against us, who will get in this year? My opinion is TH[obviously] and Ashley Cole, on the bubble but probably not Sol and Freddie. Other certainties,Cech,Lampard,Terry,Robben and Gerrard.Young player of the year will be Robben with Cesc second.
I think this also sheds some light on why the league...

This post is response to Indian_Gonner’s previous post “Why Don’t We Just Shoot”? It’s an interesting subject.
I remember Wenger once being asked “Why is Arsenal not buying a target man”? Arsene’s reply was - should we have a target man, he feared our attack would start relying on crossing the ball into the box rather than tryng to penetrate the oppositions’ defence like we are doing right now. It’s an intelligent point. Players, just like us the ordinary people, would tend to go for the easy way out when there is one. ...
