Arsenal, Round Two

Arsenal v. Blackpool
By Charles Belle
It’s the curtain raiser at Emirates this Saturday against Blackpool. To be fair, I love the name Blackpool. It’s so very English and makes you think of Harry Potter. Even better Blackpool destroyed Wigan in their last game. Blackpool versus Wigan, not exactly a clash of the titans, but perhaps the most Quidditch sounding game of soccer ever. Read more

Liverpool v. Arsenal – Pre-Match Review
By Johnny Hayes
Happy New Season to You!
Do you smell that? That’s elation with a dash of anticipation for opening day for the 2010/2011 EPL season. Ohh to be a Gooner. Our beloved Arsenal will need to hit the ground running as our first game takes us on a trip to Anfield to face Liverpool. Talk about “easing” your way in a season, jeez! Read more
Arsenal v. AC Milan – The Emirates Cup

The Start is Near
By Johnny Hayes
This Saturday the Emirates opens its doors to football once again for the 4th edition of the Emirates Cup. While its still preseason football this competition traditionally makes for some good entertainment, as we traditionally invite other top clubs to play. This year is no exception with AC Milan, Celtic and Lyon being our guests. First up Milan… Read more
And it all comes to an end.

The 2009/2010 English Premier League season is coming to a close on Sunday. This has been a season of improvements and set backs. We have played some brilliant football this season, and have looked lost and confused at times (I am referring to the matches following our draw at Emirates v. Barcelona). I for one am excited and sad for the season to come to an end. I am sad to see another season end, and the trophy cabinet has only been expanded with an Emirates Cup paper weight . . . sigh.

Blackburn v. Arsenal; Two More to Go
May 3, 2010 | Leave a Comment
To be quite honest, there isn’t a whole lot going on in the land of Arsenal. Yes, we play the Blackburn Rovers away at 12:00PM EDT, and yes, this match isn’t being televised in the US, and yes, we need to get 1 point out of our last two matches to secure 3rd place . . . but beyond that, there isn’t much else to talk about.

Red Man . . . Master of the Night Man

There are only 3 matches left to the 2009/2010 season. Yes, I said only 3. I have already begun to think about what I will do on Saturdays, and the occasional Sunday, when Arsenal aren’t playing. The summer can be a boring time for all Gooners. Well, at least we have the World Cup to keep us company. I will soon be taking predictions about the World Cup, how the US Men’s National Team will do, who will win it all, the player to watch . . . lot’s of fun stuff ahead. But I digress. Oh, that’s right, we have Man Citeh on Saturday . . . Read more
Here we go again

I for one am still quite upset about our loss to the Spuds. I could go on and on about my upsetteddness, but I won’t bore you with that drivel. We fielded a weakened squad (what’s new here), and we paid the price. Read more
Who Are Ya? Who Are Ya? Who Are Ya?

I am finally back from London and Spain where I (along with 20 other Arsenal Americans) witnessed a last gasp (more like profuse cursing and yelling) winner from Nicklas Bendtner and a thorough demolition from one Lionel Messi (4 goals . . . ouch). A thank you to Mr. San Francisco for the Barca match write up! So a quick recap of the Arsenal America Road Trip . . .

Last Train to Spudsville
April 13, 2010 | Leave a Comment
Nothing quite soothes a wounded pride quite like hatred. Unadulterated, virulent, remorseless venom focused on the most loathed of opponents. The Gunners have seen their hopes for silverware whittled down to a shot at winning the league. That chance however slight, runs through Spudsville, as all of the clubs still in contention, must face the Tiny Totts.
The Spuds, coming off an embarrassing FA Cup semi-final loss to already relegated Portsmouth, face a much depleted Arsenal, who are without Fàbregas, Arshavin, Song, and Gallas. There is talk of Robin van Persie’s return, but to what effect, remains to be seen.
Here’s hoping we’re celebrating St. Totteringham’s day tomorrow! C’mon you Gunners!
