Here’s Jack, Arsene On Signings And The Season

Jan 6th, 2009 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

Two posts in two days? Yea Gods, it is enough to get some paranormal investigations going.
Arsene has had a ‘Shining‘ moment, chopping through the door of young Master Wilshere’s door with an axe and thrusting a contract through, promising only to leave if Jack signed it, which he duly did. Wenger calmed down and said:
We [...]



RvP Leads Arsenal To Cardiff (Again)

Jan 5th, 2009 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

Slightly delayed return following yesterday’s birthday celebrations but back into the swing of things.
It was surprising to realise that Arsenal were in the fourth round of the FA Cup with all of the doom and gloom in the media following Saturday’s 3 - 1 win over Plymouth at The Emirates. It is hard sometimes to [...]



Xmas Catch-Up, PHW & Plymouth

Jan 2nd, 2009 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

Christmas Catch Up
So I hope that you have all had a good Christmas and New Year. The kids have discovered Daddy’s competitive edge on the Wii to the extent that they are now practising hard at Wii Sports. The connection problems suffered whilst we are away seem to have been solved although for how long [...]



Crunch Time - Aston Villa Preview

Dec 25th, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

Hope that your festivities were enjoyable and that the fat bloke with the beard delivered your Christmas wishes to you and yours. Arsene’s wishes for everyone to be fit and well have not come to bear but rather like Number two son wanting a PS3 for himself and a Wii for his brother so that [...]



Cesc Out And Arsene’s Ref Rage

Dec 23rd, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

I coulda been a lawyer, coulda been a king
I coulda been a doctor, or any damn thing
Instead I been the bearer of bad news
‘n’ I’m wearing out my welcome with the blues
- Sid Griffin, Wearing Out My Welcome With The Blues
Which is more or less how Arsene must be feeling this morning having told the [...]



Cesc, Adebayor and Board Perspirations

Dec 23rd, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

Today is either going to be a good one for Arsene or horribly bad; there seems little chance of it being anywhere in between with the full extent of Cesc Fabregas‘ injury becoming clear. I suspect a week’s absence might be considered a ‘result’ even if it means missing the Villa match. Anything more than [...]



Webb Highlights Official’s Failings As A Point Will do

Dec 22nd, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

Under the circumstances, a point is a decent return. Beforehand, it was billed as a “must win” but the dismissal of Adebayor and Cesc’s injury may have far more telling consequences on the season rather than two dropped points.
A nervy start from Arsenal, the verve and fizz on the home match against Manchester United was [...]



Liverpool Preview

Dec 20th, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

The Champions League draw paired us with AS Roma. Whilst not wanting to denegrate the opposition, it could have been a lot worse. Roma are a decent side and should not be taken lightly. However, they are emminently beatable and represent a good opportunity for progression to the the quarter-finals.
Liverpool pitch up at The Emirates [...]



Q&A With A Liverpool Blogger

Dec 19th, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

As part of the build-up to Sunday’s match, here is a Q&A with Redfloyd from Liverpool blog, Have You Ever Been To Liverpool.
Liverpool’s start to the season has been good so far. What has Benitez changed from last term?
The table doesn’t lie but in truth it’s been a mixed bag.
At the beginning of the [...]



The Lady Thinks They Are Tramps

Dec 19th, 2008 | Source: A cultured left foot | Category: Latest Arsenal blogs

The bonhommie that PHW liked to portray as existing in the boardroom was shattered this morning with Lady Nina Bracewell-Smith going on the offensive following her departure from the Arsenal Board:
Im in total shock and very upset about the appalling way I have been treated. The board have no manners whatsoever and [...]
