And so it begins

I’ve been waiting for this, the opportunity to set up a blog and all that. I decided though that I’d wait until the end of the season rather than kick off midway. Well, the season’s finished. We played out our last game along with the rest of ‘em and it will no doubt be long before the lack of football gets to us all. Odd time to begin a blog? I think not. I’ve got plenty to write about this preseason (transfer speculation, actual transfers, weighing up our future chances, season analysis, friendlies etc.) and that’s just getting started.

Second, Arsenal are something of a big club these days. There are plenty of other blogs doing the rounds that follow our fortunes and write better than I do. I know this’ll never become a big thing, basically and the best I can hope for is the odd reader who likes hearing what I’ve got to say. I’m not doing this to become the best or most visited Arsenal blog around and I know there are better alternatives. I’m doing this purely because I want to and as a hobby. I want to get my views on the net and if no one else wants to read them that’s fine. I’ll probably still trudge along. And hopefully, when I begin to grey, I’ll still be here, still writing, and talking about how once upon a time Arsenal played beautiful football. That’s a far fetched ambition maybe but I love writing about the club and don’t envision ever getting bored with it. There’ll always be something to talk about, as far as I’m concerned, and I look forward to talking about it all.
