Yup, I used the wrong word. Assuming you went to the game, you probably had a better view than I did. I was sitting in the north stand. I saw 'Ches take the ball, but didn't see him have a go at the ballboy.

I don't mean to sound a little ignorant, but your away supporters were quiet. I heard them singing in the last 5-10 minutes, but for most of the game, I couldn't really hear a peep. It was weird as your home support is amazing and they make SJP a very intimidating place to go to.

Maybe it was just a once off?



All fans have fickle fans. I heard some United fans saying they wanted Fergie out after they lost to Basel in the CL - now that's bad <laugh>.

If we were in your position a few years' back, we would have seen who the true supporters are and who the plastics were. Seeing as we've not won anything for 7 years though, I can't really see how anyone would call our supporters glory hunters or plastic supporters. Arsenal have a very young fanbase.

<laugh> 7 years? My heart bleeds ;)

Unfortunately, Mike Ashley being Mike Ashley wants to take an allocation where he doesn't have to pay upfront, some end up getting some ****ty allocations. It sold out within 2 days of being on sale, we would have taken 3000 if fatty had taken them. We sang on a few occasions, most of it was nerves I suppose, added to the fact that a lot of London based supporters got their hands on tickets, god knows how, but our support is always worse with them as they don't seem to know the majority of songs.

We sang quite a bit but with only 1400 of us there, it didn't really help.
 
The Fat Man's frightened of not selling all the tickets and still having to pay for them. He should know there'll always be at least 2,500 fans who'd go to all the games.
 
Did Wenger see the unsporting behaviour by the way? He normally doesn't.
So do we reckon RVP will do to Man Citeh then? I reckon he will be off like a shot a money talks these days unfortunately?
 
Robin Van Persie was the ****.

Krul's time wasting mostly happened when the ball was in play , something which is legal. I remember Krul having the ball at his feet and waiting for Van Persie to run at him so he could pick it up. Van Persie , looking bemused , lazily walked to Krul in slow motion before saying something in his ear and giving him a little push although it was very gentle. Krul then told him something and that's where the tension and booing started.

Arsenal fans booing all game gave the impression that he was wasting time whilst really he wasn't. Some Arsenal fans were expecting him to sprint and place the ball and kick the ball out of play. He was only doing what a goalkeeper would normally do yet Arsenal fans and players started moaning because they felt that the game was nearly over.

Van Persie should have been more gracious and looked more interested in winding up Krul than his own football club. That's a captain for you.


dont mind this ****er lads he only talks ****e , and coming from someone full of piss life must be hard for him.
