Maire's Bio

Hi folks,
I am Mary, Co-Community Leader of the Arsenal Community with Shyam.

There are many Arsenal series for all you Gooners to get involved in including: "Arsenal In..." where Gooners from all over the world tell us what Arsenal mean to their respective countries, "Arsenal: Where Are They Now?" where Shyam looks at where past Arsenal players are, "Arsenal Legends" with Joe Guarr and "Arsenal Ladies" where I keep everyone up to date with all the goings on with the Arsenal Ladies.

I also have started a series called "The Two Sides of....Coin" where I look at characters who spark debate. So far I have assessed Arsene Wenger , Cristiano Ronaldo, Nicklas Bendtner , Wayne Rooney (with LJS) and Roy Keane (with Willie Gannon).

Any other suggestions and comments are greatly welcome.

As for me, I am a proud Arsenal fan and have been for 15 years since the George Graham era and a large part in this was the talent of Ian Wright. I am a huge fan of Arsene Wenger and am immensly proud that he is Arsenal manager and the great job he has done for the club. However, as with everyone he has made mistakes and is open to criticism.

Although a passionate Gooner, my favourite player by a clear mile is Paolo Maldini. Legend is an understatement. Because of Maldini I have supported AC Milan for nearly 17 years now and I also suffer from that Irish illness of having a soft spot for Glasgow Celtic. I also believe that Giovanni Trapattoni will take the Rep.Ireland to the promised land of the World Cup.

Other than that I enjoy GAA, Rugby Union, Golf, Tennis, Moto Gp and Formula 1 amongst others.

If you like what I write please tell me, if you hate what I write please tell me.

I am heavily involved with Frontlinefootball.com, a site that aims to be one where everyone comes to watch videos, read blogs, get the latest breaking news and debate everything about the beautiful games.
