Does Walcott Deserve A Place In The Starting Lineup?

A star in the making. A gem waiting to shine. The next Thierry Henry. These were some of the words which were used to describe Theo Walcott when he first signed for Arsenal in 2006. The guy was considered the ‘next big thing’ in England since Wayne Rooney. And indeed when he was selected for

Time to take our ball back, tell FIFA to swivel and start our own comp, say hello to the WFA!

That’s right people, it’s time to kick FIFA out of football, time to rid ourselves of corruption, time to get rid of boys clubs that support bung taking, turn a blind eye to racists and dodge taxes. It’s time we took back our ball and rowed our own boat, time to get rid of pointless [...]

Not 2018 – England Will Lift The World Cup In 2014.

England lost their bid for 2018 World Cup, it’s a major talking point now and why?

Just what most Arsenal fans did not want to hear and Cesc has a chuckle…

I read this article yesterday afternoon and my heart sunk! Arsene Wenger has apparently given no assurances to any of our three goal keepers about who will play or when. Manuel Almunia, who is not far away from being fit and therefore in contention for the gloves again has been told he needs to fight [...]
