#WOLARS This football schedule is proving taxing for me. Having to write a preview and follow up with a match report every 3 days. How do footballers cope? I am even more impressed but also get now why some people are jealous of their wages. No one’s complaining about the…
Aubameyang: 2 goals and an assist was kicking ass. Arsenal’s first home game in over 3 months. Any apprehensions of the players being a little rusty were dispelled early, as the passing was easy and quick right from the start. Wish the same could be said for the TV producers….
#ARSNOR Two away losses, and two away wins, and now we’re back to play our first home game since the restart. I’m looking forward to the Fifa20 crowd chants. ‘Mike Dean is a wanker’ better be on the playlist. The referee is Peter Bankes but that doesn’t matter, except it…

David Luiz’s 26 minutes of madness culminated in a red card. When football season came to a halt due to COVID-19 outbreak, a selfish part in me rather hoped that this season be called null and void. Let’s be honest, with Arsenal on track for their worst season in…
#MCIARS at 15:15, Wednesday, June 17, 2020 It’s been more than 3 months since Arsenal last played. For a while it looked like the season would need to end prematurely. But thankfully, it seems the effects of the virus have not been as bad as earlier feared. Not enough anyway…
