may 26th
Well, it’s goodbye to Gio (I’m sure I’ve used that one before, but no matter) as the bold van Bronckhorst joined Barcelona permanently yesterday. It wasn’t such good news for his fellow Dutchmen as Overmars, Reiziger, Kluivert and Philip Cocu were all told to bugger off by the Catalan club. Kluivert has long been linked with Arsenal, but I doubt he still interests Arsene Wenger after the purchases of Reyes and van Persie. Overmars is interesting though. Would you have him back for the right hand side of midfield if Freddie left? Would you have him back anyway?
Arsenal’s new home kit – can’t say I like it too much, badge in the centre, yellow bib type piping, the same as all the other Nike shirts. I notice there’s nothing about the away kit yet, but it is going to be blue, which is shit. Every Arsenal fan knows that wearing a blue kit will cost us the league, yet the board persist with this madness. For all the good stuff they do, like hiring AW, moving to Ashburton Grove etc, why must they inflict these vomitous blue monstrosities upon us? Quite honestly I fail to see why Arsenal should play in blue. It’s a cunty RangersEvertonChelsea colour, not a colour for unbeaten champions. Down with blue, I say.
Can you believe it’s been 15 year since Michael Thomas went charging through the midfield, with ‘it’ up for grabs? Well, it has. May 26th is St. Michael’s Day. Feel free to share your memories of that special day in the arses. Where were you? Who were you with? How drunk did you get? Arse on, friends, arse on.
As always, Arseweb’s Anfield 89 page is worth a look, with the goals, audio clip of Brian Moore’s famous commentary and other cool stuff.
