The Brain scored his third goal in two matches as our boys overturned an early deficit in the ‘Devil’s Pot’.
Bordeaux fan and good friend of AFCB, Léo Lassarade ponders Montpellier’s poor start to the season and the threat they will pose Arsenal in their first ever Champions League game.
It’s a ridiculously short Arsenal vs Hull preview today because I’m off on a road-trip to the New South Wales hinterland to enjoy a weekend of (near) isolation. Here goes: Cesc Fabregas’ injury is not as bad as expected. It looks like a maximum 10-day injury and that means he could well be available for […]
Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of Arsenal’s 2-0 win over Liverpool to win the 1989 English Championship. On that night 20 years ago, Michael Thomas rushed forward in injury time to lift home the second goal of the game and etch Arsenal’s name into the history books as winners of perhaps the most dramatic English […]

Football and beer, a wicked combination. I’m sure you don’t need reminding that the International Break is up on us and that means inevitably […]
