The Close Season Starts Here
Filed under: Site Features - Posted by: Mark
Okay, I’m back then. After some time away, sunning myself in Barcelona (arriving the same day as the Champions League trophy), I’ve made a return to the site to get things moving again.
There’s going to be some changes coming in the next few weeks – many of those will be behind the scenes (which may cause some brief downtime). Others will become blindingly obvious as we go but hopefully all of them will improve the site for one and all, for what will be our third full season.
I’ll be revealing more in a bit – right now I’ve got some techie stuff to plan and some more posts to tap out. Thanks again for your continued support as always. It’s good to be back in action.

“Alex Chamberlain played three games for the first time in his career. He had a stiff neck at half-time, so I did not want to take a gamble with him. Then we had a problem with Koscielny, and I wanted to give some playing time to Benayoun.”
Arsene Wenger explains why Van Persie wasn't substituted in the 7-1 win over Blackburn following pre-game talk of the Dutch hitman needing rest
