Cyberbullies, net skinheads, net-hooligans and other infestations Don McMahon While recently surfing various Arsenal websites and blogs, I came across an increasing number of posts, many from the same person, and many written or should I say scripted from the same monologue. These so-called supporters were uniformly anti-Wenger, anti-Arsenal and specifically persistently vulgar, offensive, mocking …
In this second part of the this year last year comparison, we will see the top 4 for last season as well as a look at the mini league table for top 8 teams only. So Man City have improved by 3 points andconceded 4 goals less however they have scored 2 goals less …
This year last year by Stuart Higgins This year last year We are now 14 games into the season and I thought it was about time for a follow up on the series of articles started earlier this season comparing the results from this season with those of the same fixture last season. I have …
By Tony Attwood We have had racist and anti-Semitic chanting, the calling of Arsenal fans paedophiles, and the jeering of managers. Now it is all a bit more chic, a bit more refined, and negativity has turned more into disdain. Mr Wenger was not booed or jeered this time when Francis Coquelin came on, and …

By Tony Attwood Sam Allardyce has been known on Untold occasionally as Sam the Slug, and never has he been more slug like than in coming up with a condemnation of the anti-Semitic chanting by some West Ham fans at White Hart Lane. His view, “If I didn’t hear it, I can’t condemn it. …
By Walter Broeckx Is football still a sport? That is a question I asked myself this weekend. It was after I had finished my own game. And for a few reasons I now am working as an assistant referee, and well must say I enjoy doing it and according to the game assessors and my …
By Tony Attwood According to our national press Arsène Wenger his “allowing a rift to develop between himself and Arsenal’s fans after a response to Saturday’s show of dissatisfaction that seemed to imply that their opinions did not really count for that much.” It is typical media speak – a speak in which it is …
By Walter Broeckx So Arsenal dropped two points at Aston Villa last Saturday. And again the end of the universe is near. No I must admit I couldn’t see the game myself. As most know I am active as a ref myself and because of some bad luck my own game was starting when …
By Tony Attwood This article is a muddle. It is a muddle because I am muddled to the point of despair. We are in a time when it is seemingly normal to boo your own club’s manager, and to engage in anti-Semitic, racist and homophobic chants. Two different issues, but as I try (with I …
By Tony Attwood The Villa game was a game you could break your leg in, just by turning the wrong way. An opposition player, one of your own team, a hoarding at the side of the pitch – you could collide with any quite innocently in weather like this, and end a career. It was …
By Billy the Dog McGraw I have this week been running a campaign for Mr Adebayor to be transferred week by week from club to club so that he can play us every week. For some bizarre reason Sir Hardly Anyone, chair of the Premier League has not replied to my letters, but I am …

Tony Attwood We have been talking about it for a long time – but now it has started. The first of the new commercial sponsorship deals is in, and it shows a 600 percent increase on the previous deal. Of course there will be some supporters that will argue that the increase is not enough …
By Tony Attwood We now more or less know who is going into the knock out rounds – and for the first time in a while, there is a case to be made for coming second, as I will try to show. GROUP A Porto and Paris Saint-Germain have both qualified but either could come …
By Walter Broeckx The FA has made their final verdict public on the allegations from Chelsea against referee Mark Clattenburg that he had used racist language against one of their players. The FA has said that there is no proof that Clattenburg has said such a thing. As you all know I have been reviewing …
Roberto De Matteo. Another one bites the dust. Would you really want a Russian owning our club? By Cameron Wolfe. So once again Chelsea sack their Manager. The price of working for a fickle owner. Obviously winning the Champions League and the FA cup in the same season just wasn’t enough for the owner. …
By Walter Broeckx So that is 13 in a row now. 13 times Arsenal has qualified in the CL for the knock out stages. You can correct me if you want but NO OTHER ENGLISH TEAM HAS DONE THIS! And I am pretty sure of this. In the last 13 seasons not all the teams …
By Tony Attwood It is nearly time to leave – well I have to go in 3 hours at 4pm, to meet Drew in Northampton (our rendezvous is right by the Northampton Town ground – one of only two grounds in the UK where there is a stand named after an Arsenal man. Did you …
Next hurdle. Champions league group B game. Montpellier at Home. By Cameron Wolfe So we’re slowly but surely climbing the EPL table (up one more place to 6th). With some results above us going our way at the weekend. Especially after Manure being beat by Norwich. Seem to remember we took lots of stick for …
By Billy the Dog McGraw For the Anti-Arsenal Arsenal supporter, supporting QPR, or Chelsea, or Newcastle, or any one of a number of other teams, must seem like heaven. Little run of bad results and out goes the manager. No hanging around thinking who else might actually be willing to take the job. Just boot, …
By Walter Broeckx Football is a funny game. Or a funny sport. Come to think of it almost all sports are somewhat funny. The biggest fun in any sports however is the unpredictability. In fact lots of money is sometimes won or lost with this unpredictability. Let us take Norwich as an example. Who …

Today a special North London Derby one featuring: The good: Cazorla, the bad: Adebye, the ugly: the totts Everybody enjoyed the chicken meal last Saturday evening? Well I did. It tasted that …
Really enjoyed the Spuds bashing. The only downside for me was the commentary. By Cameron Wolfe I live in North America. Edmonton in Canada to be precise. So no Sky Sports for me. I was watching Setanta up until last year (although it had already gone belly up in the UK) they actually still broadcast …
