History
The idea of starting another Arsenal blog came about at the beginning of year 2010 when he was given a considerably good encouragement and support by Young Guns founder, J Sanderson who has been Kelvin’s great friend on the internet.
After reading many of the Arsenal fan blogs on the internet, Kelvin finds that there is still room for improvement and progress in the Arsenal blogosphere. Hence, he began planning the contents of the blog which would not only revolve around the usual Arsenal stuff, it would also include some interviews, reviews and previews with the hope of using better visual effects in the future.
The Arsenal Press is expected to be fully functional in August 2010 and will grow step by step using the various means available to reach out the Arsenal fans in the cyber world.
The Author and Founder
The Arsenal was officially added into his vocabulary during the year 2003. As always, Kelvin will always tell you that “Dennis Bergkamp introduced him to The Arsenal”. There is a history behind this line but we shall not go too deep into that. Of course, The Arsenal’s unique attacking football style is what attracts Kelvin the most. His biggest memories as an Arsenal fan will always revolve around two historical events, the 49 match unbeaten run in season 2003/2004 (his first full season as a fan) and the Champions League run in season 2005/2006.
In real life, Kelvin holds a bachelor degree in electrical engineering from a local technological university but works as an editor for a local education publishing house at the moment. He deals with writing, editing and proofreading of manuscripts as he tries his best to horn his writing skills at the moment. His passion in football journalism is growing as he reads a lot of news articles particularly those related to football and The Arsenal. That is one of the motivations for him to dive into the blogosphere and start blogging about the thing he loves most, The Arsenal.
Throughout his life as an Arsenal blog reader, he has also helped out in a number of Arsenal blog projects. The most notable one is the very famous Young Guns, which blogs about everything Arsenal Reserve and Youth. Kelvin is an administrator of the Young Guns Facebook page at the moment, helping J to maintain and recruit new members to expand the blog’s fanbase.
