And both of ours were away trips. It's been a hard month for Arsenal, though. They haven't had to travel any further than Watford and they've only played 4 games, but that's not the point.
Andy Lochhead died today , Burnley old school centre forward who thought nothing of putting the keeper in the net along with the ball , he always reminds me of my early Spurs days . RIP Andy
Bochum were losing 2-0 to Monchengladbach when a fan threw a beer at the linesman. Hit him in the head and the game had to be called off. ****ing idiot.
Again, this doesn't mean he had no involvement. If you're aware of corruption, but don't report it, that makes you complicit. And regardless of what the official line is, he is always going to have a question mark hanging over his head about his role in it. He was talking about fairness in terms of recovery time between games. And he hasn't been the only manager to speak about it. Frankly, the reaction to us postponing one game, which plenty of other managers in the league have also done for similar reasons and to a larger degree, has been farcical. Other clubs postponing games? No problem. Arsenal do it (once)? Outrageous. As for the sponsorship side of things, I think it's better to not go down this road. I'm sure if I did enough digging, there will be some messed up **** you lot have got involved in, as well. There's no point pretending otherwise.
Jiminez was unfortunate to be sent off, it was never a booking and if that was Salah, Mane or Rashford doing what Jiminez did, there is zero chance a second yellow card is shown. Good result for Spurs though.
There's no evidence that he did it and he was cleared. End of story. Other clubs postponed games when they had a serious issue. You had injuries, suspensions and loaned people out, so you used one player testing positive. It was disgraceful and they changed the rules because of it. So Arsenal being sponsored by two dictators is fine because.... what, exactly? Spurs have some dodgy stuff somewhere, possibly? If we do have any of it, then it's something that nobody's aware of. Yours? Not so much.
Never a red that, if anything it’s a foul by the keeper, poor decision which could cost Wolves massively and could impact their European ambitions.
Yeah, cleared in a country where corruption is rife and within institutions that lack integrity. You’ll excuse me if I take it all with a pinch of salt. There’s no smoke without fire. Sorry but no. The way you’ve framed this is disingenuous. We had players unavailable for a variety of reasons and did not do anything wrong according to the rules the Premier League themselves set. We had to present evidence and give our case as to why the game needed to be postponed. The Premier League approved the postponement. So they obviously thought we had a legitimate case. The reason why they changed the rules was because loads of other clubs were doing, and had done, the same thing multiple times. Blame the Premier League. The whole thing was a storm in a teacup and your faux outrage is only because you think the decision benefited Arsenal and because you didn’t get to take advantage of a disjointed Arsenal team. At no point did I suggest it was fine. But this moral absolutism you’re trying to enforce here is flawed. These clubs are worth billions of dollars and are owned by people with a disgusting quantity of wealth. They have all undoubtedly done terrible things to get to where they are. That includes my club and it also includes yours. The only difference is to what degree. And if that’s the case, then neither of us have a leg to stand on.
Wouldn't that also apply to the accusation in the first place? Various people were successfully charged in this case, too. Conte was cleared. What clubs had done anything remotely similar to getting a game called off for one case? You're only defending it because it's Arsenal. There's been criticism for it from all sides. It's not moral absolutism, at all. Not wanting the money of murderous dictators should be standard. This isn't some tenuous link. It's two of your shirt sponsors and your ground sponsor. You sound like a Chelsea fan.
I will just take this opportunity to point out that the actual number of covid cases is irrelevant be it 1 or 11. If you were unable to name a matchday squad (of 14 plus a keeper) and part of the reason was covid then you could ask for (and get) a postponement.
