Deeply saddened to hear the news that Theo Foley, George Graham's assistant when Arsenal won their first title for 18 seasons back in 1989, has passed away. A good guy by all accounts. R.I.P. ๐
Interesting... Robin van Persie says he was never offered a new deal by Arsenal and that he got the sense the club had grown tired of him.
Thoughts? โฌ๏ธ
To those Arsenal fans - not Arsenal supporters, because there is a big difference - disrespecting Dennis Bergkamp. Wow. Just wow. The

Not one member of the Arsenal board of directors at the Brighton game. Only club secretary David Miles. Presumably better things to do with their Sunday?
Steve Bould after Saturday's U23 game: "Iโm really enjoying being back out on the grass and coaching, so Iโm really happy.". Which kind of begs the question what the Arsenal first team assistant coach was doing for 7 years between 2012 and 2019, if grass and coaching were absent.
Just been messaged the following: "The LA Rams new stadium which was to cost $2bn overrun is now looking like it could come in at $6bn. Their team is f***ed too with overloaded contracts. This is going to have a knock-on effect for sure"
Optimistic view - Stan K sells Arsenal???
Reports on the reason for Mesut Ozil missing the rest of Arsenal's season. 100% confirmed he has a genuine back problem... the club medical team cannot find his backbone. Miracle recovery predicted once Germany's pre-World Cup friendlies come round
Desperately disappointed to read this in the

A contact is looking at running a ยฃ799 in and out (no overnight stay) 140 seater return flight to Baku for the final. Departing Stansted or Luton. If interested reply with no of seats needed so he can assess interest before finalising hire of plane plus arrangements with airports

Gunnersaurus made redundant as part of Arsenal cost-cutting
Sad news as Jerry Quy - a popular and longstanding figure at Arsenal - who has played the mascot since 1993, has been let go by the club
Disgusting. This is not what all true Arsenal supporters are about across the planet. An utter disgrace. Go away and read up on your history. And then find another team because no real Gooner would dare sully Geordie Armstrong and his wonderful daughter
Based on his performance against Portugal, I hope to God the deal for

Good God! When Lois Langton, chair of the ultra-conservative Arsenal Independent Supporters Association, comes out publicly as Wenger Out, you know the game's up. Lois is VERY close to the power brokers at the club. I suspect she knows Ancelotti is coming.
Weโre bringing out a special โAu Revoir Arsรจneโ edition of The Gooner for the Burnley game. It will be an 84 page issue & costs ยฃ5. This is a special not covered by any existing subscription, but if you can't make the game you can order it in advance here:
Looks like Arsene won't be able to scupper this one with the usual indecisive dilly-dallying. It looks like a new team is in charge of player recruitment. Wenger / Law / Rowley is history (along with all the players "I nearly signed...")
Emery on Chambers post-match: "Last year was very good because he played all the matches with Fulham. From pre-season, he deserved to play today in the first XI. I want to have very competitive players in each position, with David Luiz, with Holding."

Mike Dean books Guendouzi for sarcasm?
Elbows - no problem.
Career threatening challenges that lead to a player being stretchered off - go ahead.
As long as, of course, you are playing for the opposition against Arsenal...
Well done to each and every Arsenal supporter for showing such vocal and unstinting support throughout the whole 90 minutes at the Emirates. To be fair itโs been a feature of the whole season. Well Played
