This story, like loads of other website headlines, is just another total lie of course but it will have got a good few people trawling the NewsNow Arsenal feed doing a double take before logging on to yet another website they may not have visited otherwise. And I apologise for that - but quite clearly the NewsNow Arsenal feed is developing into a total pain in the Ballacks.

Endless repeats of the same stories, endlessly spun, respun, reverse spun, amended to suit the writer's inability and then rehashed and regurgitated again from the four corners of the Globe. The number of original thinking, original story sites is diminishing and the world wide web is spawning hundreds of pointless copycat sites, pointless to all but the ego behind them or a news desk looking to fill space. Wading through the inconsequential repeats of a non-story is a pain in the Arse. What's needed are additional filters because many sites are inventing headlines with the sole purpose of encouraging hits via the NewsNow website. Worse still it appears that some doing so are often Arsenal fans with their own sites just looking for hits obtained by spurious headlines. The Daily Mail and some others have even taken to repeating the same story under two separate headlines to give it a alternative spin.

Any story based on some spurious junk dreamed up by a Spanish journo about Thierry Henry now becomes the very latest hot news and grist to the mill for such diverse hotbeds of Arsenal information as the Bangladesh Daily Star, Fulhamweb, icliverpool, Khaleej Times, The Irish Business Post, Channel News Asia, Fox Sports Australia, Orlando Sentinal, Evening Echo, Edinburgh Evening News, Sportal NZ, Ninemsn and Ananova.

Let's be honest just how many of us have any of these websites logged under their favourites for the latest updates on the mighty Arsenal. It's time for a major rethink on trawling for real Arsenal News. Anyone got any ideas?
