About the author

A doctor , and an armchair football fan . I follow no other sport , and find them all but football utterly boring . In love with the game since 1994 , not an avid blogger / writer , as my control of language is not that refined . Only write when i run out of people in real life to discuss my thoughts , so my articles will mainly be random ramblings of a hardcore fan . Oh and by the way , if it is of any importance , the only team I have ever supported is Arsenal .
