by Brett Stein I’m not quite sure how it works for other clubs. I proudly support the Arsenal and have never interacted with fans of other teams aside from having to begrudgingly share a TV during a match at the pub. I am quite active on Twitter (@JerZGooner) but it is all Gunners, all the [...]
By Brett Stein For the diehard YCIS.com reader out there you may remember my (triumphant) debut Arsenal piece that was laced with promise, optimism and even a rainbow, unicorn or two. While the atypical Gooner response is to proclaim the Mayans had it right, I am indeed worried, but I haven’t completely lost it. Yet. [...]
By Brett Stein In the 87th minute of the deadlocked match against Aston Villa, Yossi Benayoun headed home a game winner off the foot of a Robin van Persie corner kick. Shortly after the final whistle, I was “asking myself, well…how did I get here?”. This wasn’t end-of-the-year reflection and/or holiday reminiscing drivel, it was [...]
By: Adam W. Van Dyk Since the 2-1 loss to Spurs early in October, one can make a fairly decent argument that Arsenal is playing some of the best football in the EPL. Since the start of the season, one can make a very convincing argument that Robin Van Persie has been the best striker [...]
Round 8 is in the books and in this addition of Wednesday’s Wielding the Axe let’s look at how the managers on our previous list fared. Arsenal’s Arsène Wenger (3% of the vote) got a 2-1 victory over Sunderland Bolton Wanderers’ Owen Coyle (10% of the vote) got a 3-1 victory over Wigan Blackburn Rovers’ [...]
By: Adam W. Van Dyk The brief respite offered by the international break came at an interesting time for Arsenal. After showing signs of life in comprehensively beating Bolton 3-0 and a Champions League win over Olympiakos, the Gunners fell flat against London rivals Tottenham in losing 2-1. The loss left them in fifteenth position [...]
By Dan Harney We can all think back to a time in our lives when we did, wore, said, or ate things that are no longer considered cool (or that even exist, for that matter). If your wife wears stirrup pants or if you’re thinking of buying an ant farm as a gift, seek help [...]
Now that the campaign is 7 fixtures in, it is definitely time to talk about the managers that are on the hot seat. Which club owner is most likely to pull a Roman Abramovich and make a managerial change (surprisingly, it is not Roman)? Let’s examine this week’s candidates (in club alphabetical order, not sack [...]
By: Adam W. Van Dyk Just as I predicted, things got better for the Gunners after the 8-2 thrashing they were handed by Manchester United late last month. Footballers have to have short-term memories in order to have success in the long, grueling domestic and foreign campaigns and Arsenal’s mettle has been on display in [...]
By: Adam W. Van Dyk There were not a lot of positives to take away from Manchester United’s 8-2 thrashing of the Gunners on Sunday, but I am, by nature a very positive person. As such, I’m going to put a positive spin on the current situation at Arsenal not because I want to make [...]
Thanks to the sale of Nasri and Fàbregas, Arsenal have the funds necessary to compensate the traveling contingent that was witnessed the 8-2 loss to Manchester United. According to the Guardian there were around 3,000 Gunners that made the trip up north. While they won’t help cover the cost of traveling to and from Manchester, [...]
What does today’s Champions League draw tell us about the destiny (or fate) of the EPL teams involved? Whenever the Champions League rolls around I find myself rooting for all the EPL clubs no matter what level of hate I have for each of them respectively. If EPL clubs pull off a good showing, it [...]
