It has been a while coming, but now Mr Usmanov is making his move. And the moral question is, is it possible to be against Mr Usmanov the shareholder, but in favour of the arrival of Arshavin? Russian clubs are owned by big companies for the most part. Zenit Leningrad (now known by the politically…
Police investigating the activities of Tottenham Hotspur supporters guilty of homophobic and racist chanting at Portsmouth have finally, after months of pressure from this and other blog sites, released pictures of 16 suspects today. That the event took place on 28 September and that only 16 of the hundreds – perhaps thousands – who joined…
If you follow the women’s game you’ll know that for years we’ve dominated, going for century after century without being beaten by anyone. But this year Everton have tried to match the record. The Arsenal/Everton games have somehow slipped back to the end of the season, which is how we have Arsenal played 15 won…
It’s saturday morning and nearly time to get the Morris Minor out for the long treck south, across the dusty wastelands where capitalism once flourished before the evil bankers came in and stole everything, leaving the poor asking why we didn’t fight them in the high street and on the landing grounds, as they took…
Well not quite every time, but quite often. Like my call that Arshavin would join us, same with Nasri, Denilson being a great defender, and just before the Cardiff match, about Bischoff.

In one sense it looks like a race, with the FA, the EPL and UEFA all trying to get in first with ideas to reform European football. Today it is the turn of Michel Platini who like the others chooses to ignore the corruption that is evident in Italy, and which has almost certainly seeped…
Everyone is telling different stories according to the always believable and generally truthful British press. (That statement is ironic). Dennis Lachter, agent to the man most of us had never heard of a year back, said on www.newsru.com: “Andrei wants to move to Arsenal, and Arsenal wants to acquire Andrei. All that remains is for…
Milan were centrally involved in the bribing of referees (the Calciopoli scandal) in Itlay and managed to get away with just a little points deduction. That really is enough to have the club kicked out of European football for quite a few years, but no, they are still there, and still doing their stuff. To…
There were gasps of horror and amazement yesterday in the dim and distant north east as a bunch of men dressed in zebra outfits assaulted Arsenal players who were attempting to play a game of football. In one incident Arshavin was smashed in the face, while in two others Clichy was twice pulled down, once…
Thank you Nahn – ~I love it when people quote Dylan at me. Although it has nothing to do with football, I run a little Bob Dylan blog which slowly records commentaries on the meaning of Dylan’s music. But meanwhile back in the real world, how about starting to talk about next season now? Perverse,…
