3 comments By Dr Billy “the dog” McGraw, senior psychologist at the “What Lies Behind Department of the University College Hospital of the North Circular Road. There was a hilarious piece in the Mirror recently under the title “Arsenal need to be careful with Pierre Emerick Aubameygang – trouble could be brewing.” So we wondered, what could […] October 20th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
5 comments By Bulldog Drummond It is interesting to note that while Arsenal play in five competitions at the moment (League, League Cup, FA Cup, Europa League and Football League Trophy), Sheffield United along with other teams in a similar position only have three: the League, FA Cup and League Cup thus putting less strain on their […] October 20th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
8 comments by Bulldog Drummond The last time we had a regular series of league matches against Sheffield United was in the early 1990s, but then the club dropped ouf of the top league in 1994. However during that era although they didn’t manage to beat us they did manage a series of 1-1 draws. Eventually they […] October 19th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
12 comments By Tony Attwood One of the central themes that Untold has worked on in the past 11 years is that of having evidence of a statistical nature upon which analyses can be built. Sometimes the amount of evidence is not that great of course, but generally speaking there is evidence of some sort available. […] October 18th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
4 comments By Sir Hardly Anyone Would you like to be a football journalist who is paid money for writing the same thing over and over and over and … well, you get the idea. Then yes it can be done with the British media. What you do is take any incident in European football, and […] October 18th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
5 comments by Tony Attwood Imagine that Arsenal had played eight games this season and won them all 4-3, the club would be second in the league but would have the worst defence in the league. The headlines would be “The statistic all Arsenal fans should be worried about this season.” Here’s another one. Imagine was had […] October 17th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
23 comments Dear Loyal and Hardcore Regular Untolders , I think that a fellow regular Untold Arsenal poster, Les Williams, and myself may have inadvertently stumbled upon a million pound idea, which may not only enrich our UE coffers, but may also bring much joy, happiness and possibly solace to our regulars, and the Arsenal fandom at […] October 16th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
19 comments By Tony Attwood The story of football in China really is something to behold. It goes like this: The Chinese government realised a while back that most sports at which the Chinese excel are individual sports like table tennis, rather than team sports like football. But they realised that for the economy of […] October 16th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
7 comments By Tony Attwood In an earlier article I was pointing out that the first eight games of the season don’t provide any sort of accurate prediction as to what will happen during the rest of the season. Quite simply there are far too many variables in Premier League football, for eight games to be much […] October 15th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
16 comments By Tony Attwood It is a central assumption on the part of journalists and bloggers that they can look at Arsenal’s current form and tell us what changes are needed to make the club more successful. And this is based on… well, presumably their superior knowledge; the knowledge that the highly paid team of directors […] October 14th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
One comment By Sir Hardly Anyone So here we are third in the league, the top team in the southern half of the country, one point behind last season’s champions. You might, if you were perhaps a believer that there are Arsenal fans who support their team, who like their team, who actually want their team […] October 13th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
24 comments By Dr Billy (the dog) McGraw We have had so many years of the media chattering about the extra money clubs are earning from TV rights it is hard to remember that the actual earnings of English clubs from TV next year will be down. And that came before beIN Media started talking about […] October 12th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
5 comments by Tony Attwood Does where a team stands after eight games actually tell us anything much about how the season will turn out in the end? It may feel like it doesn, but in fact if we judge by last season after eight games, and consider that as a predictor of where the clubs would […] October 11th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
5 comments By Tony Attwood When Arsenal declared its 25 man squad at the start of the season, and we saw there were only 20 men in it, and we noticed that some of those 20 players were still likely to be transferred out, some of us had a few worries for the forthcoming season. 20 senior […] October 10th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
2 comments By Tony Attwood Last week there was a headline produced by The Boot Room which read “‘Deadwood’, ‘Lazy and inconsistent’: Many Arsenal fans react as £35k-a-week man struggles against Liege.” And I wondered how the writer of this vignette would have felt if he or she had been referred to in a headline by […] October 9th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
20 comments By Dr Billy “the Dog” McGraw, head of psychiatry at the University College Hospital of the North Circular Road “Spurs have embarrassed English football in a way Arsenal never did’. That statement came from Adrian Durham of talkSPORT; an extremely rare bit of Arsenal supporting and Tottenham knocking. and it is interesting because this sort […] October 8th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
17 comments By Tony Attwood It wasn’t great at Arsenal Stadium yesterday, and at times it was rather frustrating, but we won. So from having been not even London’s top team, as the Guardian utterly wrongly called us, we are now one point behind Manchester City, a time widely tipped to win the league. And yes I […] October 7th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
17 comments by Bulldog Drummond Here’s the current top six in the league at 6pm Saturday. Team P W D L F A GD Pts 1 Liverpool 8 8 0 0 20 6 14 24 2 Manchester City 7 5 1 1 27 7 20 16 3 Leicester City 8 4 2 2 14 7 7 14 […] October 6th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
44 comments By Dr Billy the Dog McGraw, head of psychiatry at the University College Hospital of the North Circular Road. A little note on our trade marked rivals first, before moving on to the big story of media manipulation of a type so bonkers even I, with my PhD in Certain Things, was surprised… Liverpool(™) have […] October 5th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
21 comments By Tony Attwood It is not that usual for the BBC to get totally carried away with a story that shows Arsenal in a good light, but they certainly have done that with their reporting of Martinelli. Just consider the opening of their piece… “As Manchester United were labouring to a goalless […] October 5th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
15 comments By Tony Attwood It is a perfect example of how the toxic blogs and newspaper sites build up their eternal story of mangerial incompetence – bringing on Aubameyang for the last ten minutes when Martinelli had been having a corker of a game. What an idiot that manager is. Get him out now!!! But David […] October 4th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
10 comments By Tony Attwood Europa nights tend to be fairly relaxed at Arsenal stadium – at least at this stage of the competition. We expect to win, and we expect to see goals, and quite often we get what we expect. Not always of course, but sometimes, and the good games are the games to remember. […] October 4th, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
12 comments by Bulldog Drummond Standard Liège are on a run: five straight wins as we can see below, although perhaps that has been a little helped by having played the last four games at home. Indeed their last defeat was on 1 September with a 1-0 away loss to Anderlecht. Here are the games… Date Comp […] October 3rd, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
41 comments by Tony Attwood Jonathan Wilson in the Guardian on 1 October wrote a diatribe against Manchester United, in which he proclaimed that the game between Man U and Arsenal was of little consequence. The heading was “Manchester United v Arsenal felt and looked like a mid-table game.” Now if you have been reading my rambles […] October 2nd, 2019 | Category: Arsenal stories |
