Joleon Lescott Has A Large Forehead
By: Abby |And thank God he does, because otherwise I would have had nothing to talk about while watching the game yesterday.
Because really, nothing happened. It was very much an end-of-season game where the team couldn’t quite be bothered to actually play. Everton weren’t exactly inspiring, either, which was a bit more surprising because they actually had […]
Auf wiedersehen Jens, Arsenal win
By: travis |With the news of Flamini leaving now coming from the foremost news source, Arsenal took care of business in a particular unconvincing fashion. It was an interesting game more than it entertained, with the only goal coming from a powerful header from Dane Nicklas Bendtner. That brings his tally to nine on the season, a […]
Defeating Derby
By: travis |If only we could play Derby ever week. The boss had nothing but praise, saying “we are now back to our real level.” A 6-2 win generally a time for celebration, but with the league virtually out of reach, not much to really hope for or harp on. Instead of reading a lot of nonsense […]
Rams to the slaughter…
By: travis |Sadly, another meaningless game. Unless of course, both Chelsea and Man United lose all their remaining games. If that happens (odds are about 1 in 10000000000000000), Arsenal wins the league - assuming winning their remaining games. Since that isn’t going to happen, I’ll focus on today’s match against the already relegated Derby County.
Last match against […]
Time to bring out the whooping stick.
By: travis |Now that the season is over with four games remaining, it’s time to take out all this frustration of the last month on Reading. They still have something to play for, seeing that they are not yet safe from the relegation zone. And with Fulham probably getting an easy ride from Liverpool, three points are […]
Memes and Finalities
By: Abby |Well, that’s it, then.
I’m not really in a mood to due a true post-mortem. There will be plenty of days and weeks for that. But I have a few immediate reactions before I go attempt to be cheery for several many hours.
The meme of Arsenal is that we need experience- yet it was the two […]
What can I say?
By: Abby |Yes, I can feel the tears pricking in my eyes. This hurts. It’s painful. Painful enough that I’m here instead of doing my work, because I’m having trouble focusing.
So, we’re out. I can’t even say much about that because I didn’t get to watch the game- I was following it via the Guardian, refreshing […]
I’ve had enough of Liverpool
By: travis |I’m tired of posts that contain the phrase “this game will determine the outcome of the season.” Well, now it actually means something. This is by far, a game that represents Arsenal’s best shot at silverware this season. And it’s pretty simple. Failing to score today at Anfield means they’re done. Talk about stating the […]
Running Up That Hill
By: Abby |It was the stereotypical wet afternoon in the North, in conditions that my wimpy American self, used to rain delays and stadiums with roofs, couldn’t imagine sitting in, much less playing football in. In the worst form Arsenal had been in ages it was time to visit the bogey team of the past few seasons. […]
Well.
By: Abby |I really thought we could take this.
I shrieked aloud when Sagna scored. Twice. The high-pitched, embarrassing sort of shriek. No one deserved it more after such a solid season, and I was happy. I thought this would be our day. We were looking solid, everyone was on form, and I was daring to hope between […]
