First things first: I’m an Arsenal fan, and have been for nearly 20 years. I have a season ticket, and go to pretty much every home game. I also watch most away games on TV or on the web. I read a couple of Arsenal blogs, and Arsenal-related news is what I look for in newspapers first.
I’ve no bones about letting this influence my writing here, but this isn’t an Arsenal blog. Go read Arseblog or the like if you want that.
I intend to write about anything that comes to mind football-wise, be it thoughts on the last Arsenal game, transfer rumours, laughing at other teams’ misfortunes (I’m looking at you, red half of Merseyside) and just about everything connected with the beautiful game.
I’m not one of those people that harks back to the “good ole days” of players earning a pittance and every game kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday. I love the amount of coverage that football gets nowadays, on TV and in other media. I think it’s added something to football as a whole, even if the tabloid lies when it comes to transfer rumours leave a little something to be desired…
If you like it, let me know on Twitter or leave a comment (when I get that up and running).
