No no no no no no etc. Just wait for that one, this is just the pre-quake. You've seen nothing yet. This season reminds me so much of 1983 it's actually quite scary. Taylor is pulling strings from the afterlife.
Yeah, wait till something goes against us, Watford fans will screaming 'It's because every one is against us and they want to even it out after the Richarlison penalty!'
How many of the fouls committed in a typical EPL match would actually be enough to knock a grown man over? Very few, I'd suggested. Whether you call it diving, simulation, gamesmanship or cheating, winning free-kicks, penalties etc is as much a part of the modern game as all seater stadiums and Richarlison's belly flop was no worse than 100 similar incidents every Saturday. Suck it up Wenger, your team of hairdressers was well beaten
How many dubious penalties have Arsenal benefitted from over the years, added to all the clear penalties that have been turned down for their opponents (most recently being when they played West Brom at home)? But as soon as we get one all of a sudden there is a massive over reaction and we are everything that's wrong with the modern game once again? Remember they were loudly claiming a penalty earlier on in the game when bellerin went down after a shoulder tussle. They think that was a penalty right? Do us a favour.
That is honestly one of the poorest articles I have ever read in my life. It is literally just some deluded old fool putting his mumbling internal monologue into words. The sentence structure is appalling and repetition of points is that of GCSE standard. Shyte.
Arsenal fans and their manager are up there at the top of the league for being sore losers. Shame on them.
Just waiting to see who is the modern Geoff Powell, Wenger = Venables Interesting that Martin Samuel on Sunday Supplement was very positive about Watford and their prospects this season . no longer all that's bad in modern football?
They really are an odious club with a broad odious fan base They need to get used to it, because this is a 'poor' Arsenal side (as Arsenal sides go) So much so I question they now belong in a top 6 If you excluded City, Utd, Chelsea, Spuds, Pool from the league they still wouldn't win it
There are one or two sensible comments from Arse fans,Alex Henry seemed quite fair minded and was trying to draw attention to their failings. I do agree with Diamond.I don't see natural heirs to Jeff Powell or that odious plagiarist Neil Harman, but I'm sure some hack will grasp the nettle if we continue to thrive.
I appreciate it was probably too early in the season to view it as a 'turning point', but the more you look back now at our opening match under Silva, the more crucial that late scrambled Britos equaliser is starting to look. It ended our 6 match losing run. It started the Silva era on a high. It showed we fight to the death, a characteristic shown once again in each of our last three matches. It showed we can take points off the big boys, the Champions League clubs, the PL elite. And happily we've built on it so so well ever since.
The last 10 minutes in particular, where we completely dominated a leading premier league team to the point they looked like rabbits in the headlights and were happy to lash the ball anywhere, was reminiscent of the early 80s
I really need to know how to put a circumflex on sh.t. Keyboard wizardry of the highest order. Maybe not 'doable' on a phone.
Poor! ... wait till they realise they haven't beaten anyone in the top half yet and still have the top three to lose against twice!
This is the first long weekend for a bit that I can only semi-remember being at least semi-pissed for the entirety of it. The latter half of it is entirely down to an event that happened at 19.22 (give or take) yesterday. The whingeing Gooners are a joke. What a pathetic bunch of apologists, self-entitled tw.ts, glory hunters and delusionalists they are. If I see any of them sporting their has-been red and white garb around my town (Ricky - WFC Central) this week then I'll point out that they should consider changing their dress-code or at least shut the f.ck up. Preferably both.
He is not yards ahead, its simply the angle of the camera... As I said, BT showed this during their coverage (looking across the line as opposed to your angle) and he was onside.
Yes, that's the one that Jimmy Hill described as a "toe-poke". Years later, Gordon Strachan (who played in the match) was asked about it. He said that if you watch after the goal, Narey is celebrating on his own. That's because the rest of the team were back on the halfway line with their hands on their heads going "Oh God, what have we done?". Classic.
I read a piece on the Daily Mail (hear me out) after the game where they claimed we sang anti Tottenham songs in the first 20 mins. From where I was sitting in the Rookery I never heard this, did anyone else? Or is it a case of the DM trying to stir the hornets nest?
A bit off-topic, but: "And the referee sees it... that's the worst." This is something that winds me up so much. The referee has been conned, but you're annoyed that he doesn't realise he's been conned. How about going after the con artist? So frustrating, and a big part of the prevailing poisonous culture around this side of the game. Referees don't get respected by and large on or off the pitch, despite what this or that marketing campaign might tell you. We are so far from that it'll take generations to actually change.
A reporter once accused Brighton fans of singing racist abuse when they were singing "Seaguls, Seaguls". Reporters as we've seen aren't the brightest bunch. ...and no, there were no anti Tottenham songs. Nobody cares about them.
So you're asking if the Daily Mail, THE DAILY MAIL, has made something up? Seriously, no need to ask.
