I love a good debate about who is Arsenal’s best ever manager. We all have an opinion on it, and of course ‘greatest’ is often very subjective, but I’ve pulled out a few statistics to look at. You can prove anything with statistics, as you know. Let’s start with a list of all Arsenal managers,…

Steve Bould was sent out to face the media when Arsene Wenger lost his voice this week, and he has been quoted talking about Abou Diaby. “As we all know, he has had seven years of injuries and it takes a huge character to come back. Maybe it’s a chance for him to correct everything…

On this day in 1987 Arsenal won their first trophy for eight years! Can you imagine waiting so long! Amazing. Naturally the programme for the following week’s match against Charlton (and boy am I glad to see the back of them in the top division, boring feckers) went overboard on photographs of the great event.…

Twenty years ago today Arsenal and Spurs met on a sunny Sunday afternoon for their second FA Cup Semi-Final in three seasons. Spurs somehow won the first one in 1991. The fact that Arsenal only had to wait two years for revenge is seen by many as proof of the existence of God. Here are…

I know, I know, they’re that Russian bunch Chelsea are about to play in their latest quest to add to their illustrious roll of honour that stretches back a full decade now. It was a rhetorical question. Sort of. I’m aware, as you probably were, that Chelsea are about to play them, but I knew…

Conspiracy theorists: What a bunch of idiots. Some people would have you believe that there is a conspiracy among Premier League referees to make Arsenal do badly.

My exclusive poll yesterday reveals that the team most people consider most hated in England is Man Utd. I thought it might be Chelsea these days, but apparently having the most obnoxious fans, a racist captain, a couple of bought Premier League titles and a VERY lucky Champions League do not make you as disliked…

I was asked a couple of days ago by my friend Sergey of SovSport magazine which club in England is most hated by other fans. I had to think about it, because I wasn’t sure there was an obvious answer these days. But maybe I’m wrong. That could happen. So I thought I’d do a…

As you may know, I’m a big fan of The Times. They do excellent features about all sorts of things I’m interested in, not least sport. But they’re not perfect, as they admitted this week with their 600 word apology for the story about the supposed Qatar ‘Dream Football League’, where the top clubs in…
