Spurs 3-3 Arsenal What a game this was. It may prove to be the straw that broke the camel’s back with regards to our title challenge — although one could argue our camel has been lying, crushed in the desert for some time now — but if you can’t appreciate a game of football like […]

Last night Newcastle did what nobody thought they would and drew with Manchester United. While the result has hardly blown the title race wide open, it has done something to my psychological well-being. It’s got me thinking we can win the damn thing again. At this point in time, I really like Newcastle for doing […]
To call yesterday’s North London Derby defeat to Spurs hard to take would be an understatement of epic proportions. Two goals up after great goals by Samir Nasri and Marouane Chamakh, we looked the only side likely to win the game as the teams went into the rooms at half-time. But Spurs turned the game […]
Tomorrow is the first proper North London Derby of the season and it’s building up to be quite a match. Aside from the usual city bragging rights both teams have something to prove. If we win we go top of the Premier League for the first time this season and rubber stamp our title credentials. […]

When it comes to predicting the team that Arsene Wenger will put […]
Two big pieces of news to discuss today. The first is that we will be joined in the Champions League next season by Tottenham. Earlier today I posted an article with five reasons why I am happy it is Spurs, not Manchester City, in Europe next season. However, the result does have an immediate negative […]
Tottenham Hotspur qualified for the Champions League last night thanks to a 1-0 victory over Manchester City. Here’s five reasons why I am happy it is them rather than their opponents that will get the prize of fourth place and a spot in Europe. 1. The City juggernaught gets held off for another season In […]
The fat lady has sung. Loud and clear. A 2-1 reverse to Tottenham at White Hart Lane, our first North London Derby defeat in over a decade, has ended our hopes of winning the Premier League title. It was always going to be difficult, it was always going to be unlikely and now, it is […]
