08.55 – Welcome to another month here on Arseblog. November already….jeez.
Still, can’t be any worse than October. Not much going on – all the papers are going on about “Arsenal’s fatigue“, “missing Tony Adams“, etc etc. Paddy says we’ll get it right for Sunday’s encounter with the homeless Fulham, so what can we do but hope he’s right. The reserves won 2-0 the other night with Giovanni van Bronckhorst playing the full 90, and Jermaine Pennant scoring both goals – a timely reminder to Arsene Wenger of what he’s capable of.
When Arseblog started in February this year, I think I’m right in saying it was the first Arsenal blog. Now, there seem to be a number of Arsenal and Arsenal friendly blogs. New Arsenal blogs include One-Nil, Arsenal Shorts (sort of) and I hate Spuds, which is not another Irish man sick of his staple diet, but a gooner’s blog about his loathing of Sp*rs.
Arsenal friendly blogs, by which I mean blogs by Arsenal fans but which aren’t necessarily about Arsenal include, Diamond Geezer – whose link you’ll find on the right now in place of Steve’s eatmypiano.org which hasn’t been updated since days of yore due to the lack of anything interesting happening in Steve’s life; Loopy Librarian which is about library stuff and secret projects; Gman, which hasn’t been updated since we lost to Auxerre, so it’s quite possible he’s topped himself after the Blackburn and Dortmund games; the award winning Scaryduck is another gooner; there’s an Arsenal blog in Portugese here; the fabulously titled ‘Charging through the midfield‘; and maybe this chachacha fella is a gooner too, but I’m not 100% sure about that.
I think that’s the lot of them, if I’ve forgotten any, feel free to leave a comment and tell us about your Arsenal or Arsenal friendly blog. Anyway, I think it’s fairly obvious that Arseblog is the Daddy…oh yes, and this lot are my bitches, or something. Anyway, another word of thanks to all of you for visiting Arseblog, last month saw us top 30,000 page views for the first time which is pretty cool. We’ve come a long way from this. ’tis much appreciated.
Oh, and this bloke is a knob.
