    I have no problem with the quote at all. Just pointing out it is not true. Just like the quote I made up.

    That would be congruent with the phenomenon of delusion, spuds are well known for it <ok>

    I think that you missed the whole point. There are many anonymous quotes. A quote has no true or false. The source may be wrong, but that doesn't invalidate it's content.

    The point being made is that most Arsenal supporters did not start supporting Arsenal because they won trophies. The quote stated that point in a succinct way. It doesn't matter who said it.

    Your quote of "Wenger is a twat and I've always secretly admired Spurs." doesn't support any point you are trying to make, or say anything. It is just gibberish. If he did say it, what are you trying to say with it?

    Yes, I am familiar with the quote, I am just saying it is not real. It has never been verified from any legitimate source so how can people believe it?

    I think you have missed the point. Yes my Henry 'quote' was gibberish and has no meaning to it. That is irrelevant. The point is that anybody can make up a quote and pretend it is real, as according to PISKIE, if the person the quote is credited to does not deny it then there is a possibility it is true. So even though my Henry 'quote' is a load of gibberish with no meaning to it, maybe he said it. I mean, he never denied that he said it. Right?

    Don't start ****ing misquoting me you little oik <grr> What I said was that Arsenal FC and Bergkamp are not likely to come out and counter the claims from some odious little twerps that it's fake, because it would be a waste of their time. That does not equate to 'no denial, therefore it's true'

    I don't often do this, but for your inability to differentiate between the source of a quote and its pertinence, have a giant facepalm.

    What relevance does its pertinence have to do with this topic? Zero. Nice statue though.

    Can you prove any of the quotes attributed to Bergkamp are not true ?

    Does that mean you accept that they could well be true ?

    Yes, I accept there is a possibility they are true. However, as their is no credible source attributed to them then the likelihood is they are false; As per with everything else in football that has no credible source.

    So you must now admit that when you said the "Bergkamp & trophies" was fake you could well be wrong and that the quote is in fact true <whistle>
