Website bio: Arsenalinsider was developed, in November 2006, and its almost immediate success appeared to identify a real need for football fans across the globe.
Unlike many football blogs which are often run by one person and only give one person’s opinion, we wanted somewhere where skilled writers could have their say on their club. There are many passionate writers out there who have the writing ability but not the technical ability so we wanted to offer somewhere for them to practice their art.

Twitter following: 1k
Website bio: I’ve been a Gooner since I was a small boy. I remember fondly the days when I’d sit and watch the likes of David Rocastle, Michael Thomas, Perry Groves, Alan Smith, John Lukic, Ian Wright and Tony Adams; the team and their supporters struck a chord with me.

Shame you overlooked A Cultured Left Foot & Untold Arsenal. Also, whilst I am glad it is not included, Le Grove has more 'influence' than many of those mentioned.

I intended to compose you one very little note so as to give many thanks yet again considering the marvelous advice you’ve provided above. It’s quite surprisingly open-handed of people like you in giving extensively all a number of people could possibly have supplied for an e-book to generate some cash for their own end, and in particular seeing that you could have tried it in the event you desired. These tricks as well acted to be the easy way to fully grasp the rest have similar fervor the same as my own to grasp significantly more in terms of this matter. I know there are millions of more enjoyable opportunities in the future for individuals that read carefully your blog post.
