Arsenal move to third with win over City
2007-04-18 07:50:00
Just as we thought a week ago that Arsenal wouldn’t even make it to 4th spot to secure a Champions League place, we’re now sitting 8 points clear of Bolton thanks to goals from Tomas Rosicky, Cesc Fabregas and yes, Julio Baptista. Arsenal took the lead surprisingly, through a poacher’s goal from Rosicky which mirrored ...

2007-04-16 18:54:00
You’d wonder why I’m telling tales here on a technology and football blog, but this story is in fact a news story. I apologize for the order of the post title, but it just seemed so right though I changed the chronological order in the post. The first story involves a cat and the second, ...

CL week, pre-Bolton, takeover and transfer talk
2007-04-13 17:12:00
This week has been annoying. I didn’t stay up for the Champions League matches because of the timings and because Arsenal wasn’t involved. If they were though, I would have watched. I managed to watch Manchester United thrash AS Roma 7-1 and Chelsea edge pass Valencia 2-1 through the highlights. The Theatre of Dreams, as ...

Scoreless draw at St. James’ Park
2007-04-09 19:01:00
Newcastle United 0 - 0 Arsenal. Easily the most boring match I’ve ever seen. All I can express is how disappointed I am in seeing such a poor desire in tonight’s performance by Arsenal. Tomas Rosicky was ruled out due to sickness before kick-off which meant Abou Diaby would start on the left. Oddly, Wenger made him play next to Adebayor almost like a second striker. Early on, Hleb took a left-foot shot to test Shay Given. However, the Magpies’ number 1, was injured 25 minutes into the match and was replaced by Steve Harper. Yet that did not force Arsenal to seize the initiative and test the substitute keeper. Freddie Ljungberg was fouled outside the penalty box but referee Howard Webbe ignored a tackle that was easily worth a red card. How that would have changed the complexion of the game is a mystery, really. Damien Duff missed the best chance of the first half with a sliding effort from a Gael Clichy clearance. The game was scrappy on Arsenal’s part with s...

Arsenal 0 - 1 West Ham. The relegation-threatened West Ham United stunned Arsenal by securing all 3 points courtesy of a strike from Bobby Zamora seconds before the sides went into half-time. It was clearly off-side, but referee Graham Poll didn’t seem to think so. The first 10 minutes of the game saw wave after ...
