Yes, I know there is already a huge number of gooner related blogs floating around in the cyber-ether BUT what the hell, here is another.
This is all a big experiment I guess, I'm not sure if anyone will ever read it but in any case, it will serve it's purpose in allowing me to try blogging for the first time.
About me . . .
Well I have been a rabidly obsessive gooner since I was a young lad. The first game I saw at Highbury was in 1983 and we got beaten 1-0 by Coventry City but by that stage I was already smitten with the Gunners; a love affair that probably really began with the '5 minute final' of 1979 (that Alan Sunderland goal still gives me goosebumps even if he was sporting a Scouser style perm and 'tash a la Harry Enfield). Ever since those 'Terry Neil' days of my childhood, my brother and I grew up as Junior Gunners loving the Arsenal.
I used to live in North London, just off the Seven Sisters Road and used to manage to see a lot of home games.
Eventually however, I ended up moving to Canada in 2005 (its a long story but involves a beautiful woman) and have been a 'gooner in exile' ever since.
Despite it being a bit of a crap season, I thought it was about time for me to start an Arsenal blog.
I don't know if it will be anywhere near as good as the excellent 'Arseblog', 'East Lower', 'Goodplaya' (or indeed any of the other fine blogs I have as links) but I hope at least to have a link to at least one interesting item on the web per day.
So here goes. . .
