    Just got back from the game, excellent win. It's funny when we were 1-0 down and struggling, I said to myself well Dortmund grabbed 2 quick goals at the end of their game VS Malaga, so there's always hope, and lo and behold we got 3 after the other!

    At 1-0 down I would've taken a point, so to come with 3 is great.

    We're now above Spurs with our fate in our own hands, :-D.

    Go on, what racist remarks?

    You came on our board and wummed. You then admitted you didn't watch the right match and that you're not a supporter of your local club.

    While its true that Going a goal down kicked Arsenals players into action , there was also another factor involved i think.

    That being the tw@tty behaviour of the Norwich players when they went a goal up..

    I think it really pi$$ed off our lot and gave them some fight which otherwise could have resulted in 3 points lost.

    To this end i would like to thank HOLT for kicking away every ball that we tried to pick up.

    I would also like to thank Bunn for wasting time at every goal kick.

    Cheers , we sure needed that little extra motivation to kick your sorry asses. <cheers><cheers><cheers><cheers>

    Mark Bunn is also a Sp*rs fan, ex player of theirs... shoved Arteta as he was standing over the ball ready to take the penalty. Snodgrass was in the referee's ear the entire match. Holt tried every possible tactic to waste time by kicking away the ball. Bradley Johnson (remember Sagna leg break?) picked up an injury and took as long as possible to leave the field... the list goes on. Norwich did not get the rub of the green today, but my beef with them is still the same as it was in the last match at the Emirates in the 3-3 draw. They do not play in the spirit of the game. Sad really. I don't mind Hughton though.

    Yea, Hughton is alright. He's gonna have to clear out the Stoke rejects like Johnson and Holt though.

    Look at all the cr@p going on in front of Arteta as he was prepping to take the pen .

    Theres gamesmanship and theres BAD sportsmanship .

    A few of the Norwich players fell into the latter catergory .

    I think it helped to rile the team and get the gonads stirred to beat the mofos .

    Thank goodness for that .

    Was it a foul leading up to their free kick which they scored from? Seen a few comments around the internet saying Kamara tripped over his own feet. For some reason I don't think they'll be showing it on MoTD..

    Funny how Chelsea and Spurs fans are more upset about our win than Norwich ones and cling onto the 'dubious' penalty.

    THEY beat us with dubious refeering decisions this year, but obviously none of them will mention that.

    Norwich City FC dropped way down in my estimation today. Classless cheats. Half their fans have also shown themselves to be a bunch of cry babies, but seeing as the whole ****ing lot of them are inbred cousins, they can all go do one.

    I'm watching the whole game on Game of the Day on SS2 again, they didn't even show the replay of the Gibbs 'foul'! But they showed that Ramsey got elbowed/pushed over by Kamara in the build up to the attack which got them the freekick.

    You can bet your house on MOTD not showing that scene.

    They should a replay a couple minutes later.
    The commentator says something of 'a small clip by Gibbs' but if you have your own pair of eyes you can clearly see that the Norwich player tripped over his own feet.

    I have seen a few replays of the Gibbs free kick.it was never a foul by Gibbs, also it has come to light that Turner for Norwich could be in trouble with the FA ,he deliberately elbowed Ramsey in the face during the taking of a corner,Ramsey to his credit did not go to ground.

    As expected they don't even mention Kamara tripping over his own feet to win the free kick Norwich scored from.

    Another thing that I just noticed in those MotD highlights that I haven't seen mentioned was Michael Turner with his arms wrapped around Giroud's chest in the first half and pulling him to the ground with that chance at the near post that Bunn saved with his feet. That should have been a penalty.

    Wow, what an absolutely **** analysis of our match! And Moyes PLEASE **** OFF, I bet if it was his team he'd say the foul on Giroud was a definite penalty, ohhh but since it's Arsenal, the team he's chasing, all of a sudden he's frustrated by it.

    I don't know how any can possibly think the it wasn't a penalty on Giroud? The Norwich player was practically pulling his jersey off, and clearly brought him to the ground. Giroud was pulling back? All players pull at each other, the Giroud pull for starters was more of a REACTION, and his pulling was a normal one you usually see in all games, the Norwich player's pulling HOWEVER went outside the bounds of the leniency that's often given to shirt pulling.

    Anyways, let the haters hate, another 3 points, 7 wins in 8 games, all haters, I declare thee to sucketh the Arsenal cock.

    Just need the FA to give Hughton a ban or fine for the 'criminal' comment in his post match whine-fest :)

    Only MOTD could get a current manager to come analyse the result and performance of a rival team. <doh>

    Hopefully we will put Moysie in his place come Tuesday. It will not be an easy match so we will need to be at our best and not leave anything to chance. <ok>
