My celebratory bourbon tonight goes out to Michael Oliver, who will be fuming that he couldn't deny a brilliant 18 year old his moment in one of the biggest games of the season against his employers. Cheers, Olly.

I wish people weren't so against the idea of corruption with the referees. There's incompetence, but this isn't that. It's blatant and has been for years.

The positive from today's incident is that people in the media are calling it out.

Sad news for the Rock and Metal world: Legendary guitarist John Sykes, known for his work with THIN LIZZY, WHITESNAKE, and TYGERS OF PAN TANG, has passed away at 65.
His incredible talent and unforgettable riffs will live on forever. Rest in peace, John. 🎸🤘

Sensational performance from Clive at the end of the Arsenal Vision podcast.

We'll of course get accused of over celebrating, relying on goals to win games and having actual Satan as our set piece coach. But 🖕 to all our friends in the media.

Massive win. Needed that. Sunday is forgotten.

Set piece FC. Dubai FC.

Really good win at what is a very difficult place to go, and to come from behind feels significant too.

In the absence of Saka, we absolutely need end product from Jesus, Martinelli etc, they gave us that and we controlled it from there on.

Nwaneri a real positive on the right too. HNY!

It's completely inappropriate and unacceptable that Arsenal put me through that level of stress during chrimbo limbo.

I'm just here trying to eat an unholy amount of food and not trouble anyone and they're out there putting on that kind of performance.

The soundtrack to my Christmas. Rather than being annoyed by it, people find it amusing, which I will take.

My stocks falling: G Jesus.

Because why can't he play like that even 70% of the time?

After watching Man United defend against Forest yesterday, I think it's completely rational that the media attacked Arsenal for being good at something and not United for being hilariously incompetent. Well done boys, good process 🙄.

🦈

In search of great music on albums with terrible artwork.

The Stay Humble European tour continues. A 10/10 must see.

A game where we score five goals should not be that stressful. But we are tentatively back in business.

In hindsight I have no idea why we were worried about Forest at home.

Season starts now, and all that...

Weekends are for records and bourbon.

I will mark my migration over here from that other place by having two glasses of wine at lunch.
