    Actually, the truth is that there is a variety of debate on this forum, with a range of different views. Nobody is censored and nobody is told that they can't have their say. Sometimes it gets heated, but that's because we're all passionate about Arsenal, so it's to be expected.

    You ****ed off the first time because you were moaning about the 'thought police' but nobody ever said you couldn't express your opinions, you just couldn't cope with the responses you got. So feel free to go back to Jayram's site, where there are just 3 or 4 of you left because you are so ultra negative. Even your own members are making new accounts here because there's no debate on there. <ok>

    Been trying hard to remember the last time I enjoyed watching our team. The way we've played all season, we don't deserve to win the league. Leicester and Spurs are the only teams that look like worthy winners.

    You are a weird fan. How are Spurs more 'worthy' than ourselves? and why would you think that as an Arsenal fan?

    Also you didn't enjoy the Olympiacos game? or beating United 3-0? beating Bayern 2-0?

    I mean in the league. The games vs the Manchester teams were the only standout performances for me. Spurs and Leicester are the only teams backing up their performances with results. If you're honest with yourself as a free thinking human you will understand what I mean. Doesn't mean I want them to win it, but if they did no one can say they were lucky!

    I don't think it's been a poor season, but it hasn't been spectacular either. Ozil, Bellerin and Cech have been outstanding performers for most of the season but the team as a whole haven't looked convincing. In my opinion they can perform better but then no other team has looked great either, other than Leicester. The quality of football hasn't been that special either and you find it hard to recall many outstanding games by us or any top team. I don't think there would be half as much excitement if Leicester wasn't top of the league and everyone so close together in the points department.

    I hate Spurs as much as anyone, but they have been playing better football than us, they've been dominating more games than us and, currently at least, they look a lot more fitter than us as a team. I'm sure most neutral/unbiased fans wouldn't disagree with this. If you don't think this is the case, you're certainly watching a different sport to me.

    We may be level on points with them, but based on each side's performances over the last few months, they have been better than us.

    I think it is a bit unfair. These guys are just happy to be there. They paid good money to be able be at a Premier League game. They are not Manchester or London locals. Some "fans" of clubs haven't spent a dime on Merch, TV subscription or been to a game in their lives. If I got a chance to go watch an NBA game, say OKC vs Warriors, I would be one of those "twats" with half and half merch. Cos guess what, I just love NBA basketball and am a neutral fan. Unbias maybe not.

    Yes. Obviously. Ask me who I'd prefer to win out of Stalybridge vs Hemel Hempstead and I wouldn't give two flying f***s. Which means I could watch them play and appraise both without giving two s***s. So I'd be unbiased.

    Do you remember them selling Jose Mourinho scarves outside Old Trafford after he was sacked by Chelsea ?
