Untold Arsenal on Facebook here

By Tony Attwood

So what does England really do about this world cup stuff?

There are some interesting options such as

1: Get deep inside Fifa and try to reform what must be the most corrupt sporting body ever seen on the [...]

Stand by for the racism; plus planes landing in the wrong place (suddenly).

Football: law suits, player revolt, useless medics, pathetic Uefa, bankruptcy, and “not that kind of manager”

by Tony Attwood

Sometimes it is hard to recognise all this stuff as football. There’s so much off the pitch, that there hardly seems any room for the old ball kicking thing.

Just consider some of the stuff doing the rounds…

Arsenal: injuries, injuries, but a few returnees. A tunnel with light in it for [...]

Hicks and Gillette do it for Arsenal

The new consortium looking at Liverpool could back out if the court action currently going on allows Hicks and Gillette to stay in control. The banks would then take action to put Liverpool in admiistration, and that would result in the club losing nine points. It is now said that the American buyers would then [...]

The same rules for everyone?

Two major reforms on the football horizon thanks to, oh, err, McDonalds?

By Tony Attwood

If you have an exceptionally long memory you might recall that during the summer the England team in the Bent World Cup didn’t do very well. And the question arose as to why.

Untold Arsenal did a bit of research and came up with a reason: we didn’t have the same number [...]

New appeal over showing satellite matches in pubs on saturdays

By Tony Attwood

As it is saturday, consider this point: should you be able to nip into a pub and watch any EPL game you want?

The solution for international football and a way to end injuries

By Walter Broeckx

I must admit the first hours when I found out about the Walcott injury I was down. Very down. Why oh why did it happen again to one of our players.

England: a national team hiding behind a series of court injunctions

By Imade Itup

Another England match, another England footballer wins an injunction banning the reporting of allegations about his private life.

In considering the point I found myself meandering [...]

How the press use Untold Arsenal as a source of football news

50, the added IQ in Fufa’s headquarter and still going down

By Walter Broeckx

I really would like to know how much the average IQ is at Fufa’s headquarter. Reports mention the score above but I’m not sure it is really that high. But I’m sure they know a lot more about making money and on corruption than I do. But when it comes to things [...]

By Walter Broeckx

In the so called WC-Bid book that has been finally made public that Belgium and Holland have put together for the organisation of the Fifa World Cup 2018 we can find some very strange things. It seems that our former government in Belgium has agreed with all the privileges that Fifa would [...]

The world cup final: being bald does not make you into a good ref

Finally the world cup is over. Time to start looking ahead and think about real football, club football and Arsenal. But just a final word from my point of view on the refs in the world cup. We all have seen the big mistakes some refs made and [...]

From good to bad in just a few seconds

Theo and Jack: when they come knocking, just say “No!”

“They are evil, dreadful, disgusting, moronic, the lowest of the low.”
