My beloved Arsenal-supporting dad sadly died in the early hours. He fought bravely after breaking his hip & getting pneumonia before Christmas. Having witnessed the kindness and care shown by the NHS I’d like to thank all the nurses & doctors for their professionalism. RIP Dad 💔
So. Leaders Arsenal end the weekend five points clear at the top of the Premier League after second place Brighton lost to Liverpool who move up to third. Look forward to being in the away end at Anfield when first plays third next Sunday
What a finish by Evanilson. Carrick will surely take the fall if not today then soon but the rot started at Manchester United the day Fergie tried to take on Coolmore with Rock of Gibraltar’s stud fees that prompted John Magnier to sell to the Glazers
Right. That’s me done after Arsenal beat Everton 2-0 here at the Emirates. Now for date night in the West End after being away in Munich all week. Mind you I might need a canoe to get there with all the rain. Enjoy your Saturday night, see you at Fleetwood, cheers
FT: Arsenal 2-0 Everton. Goals from Gunners centre-backs Ezri Konsa and Gabriel sink the visitors on a wet day. See @M_Star_Online newspaper and my @Substack Layth’s Take for my Premier League reaction
Good old PGMOL or whatever it is they're called these days as referee Tony Harrington slowly walks half the pitch to hand out a yellow card to Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta. What is it they say about the best refs being invisible...not this one...as the crowd sing: 'You don't know what you're doing...'
Not sure why there is a large block of empty seats near the halfway line and has been all game. Surely those passionate corporate fans were given umbrellas as part of their deal. Correct me if I’m wrong but that’s what happens when you give up prime seating to those who don’t fancy it on a rainy day…
North London Is Red ❤️
Deep deep joy from Arsenal striker Alessia Russo after scoring the winner in the WSL North London Derby
