As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
OKAY - I AM COMING IN AT THE TOP OF THIS THREAD AND I HAVEN'T READ MORE THAN THE FIRST PAGE. BUT FOR LEGAL REASONS LET ME SAY THIS. IF ANYONE CAN SUBSTANTIATE THEIR CLAIMS WITH HARD EVIDENCE - THEN FINE. HOWEVER, ANYONE READING ANY OF THE POSTS IN THIS THREAD SHOULD BEAR IN MIND THE NATURE OF FOOTBALL GOSSIP. THERE IS A LOT OF BULLSH*T SPREAD AROUND. THIS IS TO CLARIFY THAT ANY ACCUSATIONS ABOUT ANY INDIVIDUALS SHOULD BE REGARDED AS FICTIONAL UNLESS THERE IS HARD EVIDENCE TO BACK THEM UP. THAT IS VERY UNLIKELY IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS FORUM. SO TAKE EVERYTHING YOU READ IN THIS THREAD WITH A LARGE DOSE OF SALT. THE GOONER HAS NO PROOF THAT ANY OF THE NAMED FOOTBALLERS TAKE DRUGS AND ITS POSITION IS THAT WITHOUT THE EXISTENCE OF HARD EVIDENCE, THEN ANY ACCUSATIONS THAT THEY DO SHOULD BE REGARDED AS MALICIOUS AND FALSE GOSSIP. - GOONER.ED
Had an interesting conversation today with a mate of mine who is a Liverpool fan (London based of course, like em all ). Daniel Agger came up in converstion (as he does) and he mentioned to me that there are a lot of rumours doing the rounds that one of the reasons he missed the very end of last season was he returned from injury and failed a internal drug test, he was then told to clean up his act over the summer and this is the main reason he hasn’t been starting games this season….a rumour I know but apparently an awful lot of the rumours have come direct from within the club.
I was told last season by a friend with a relative working at Arsenal that the reason Van Persie missed the end of last season was also due to the fact he failed an internal drugs test (and by all accounts not the performance enhancing type). I posted it at the time and low and behold others on the forum who knew people at the club had heard the same rumours.
Most also know the rumour that the Ferdinand “missedâ€
I know for a fact that there are, and have been for quite some time! Pro's who have liked a bit of bugle.
How do I know? I know someone very well who has done it with them. I am not talking about Premiership stars but players from the Championship down.
Also, the reason that players get caught by internal tests more is because all the players knew well in advance when they were going to be "randomly" tested by the FA's drugs team. Someone was leaking the info for them. With the clubs internal tests, they had no idea when these were coming.

I heard a rumour that Abromovich bribed Uefa to get the Champions League Final to be played in Moscow so that Chelski could win it for the glory of the Soviet Union...

Turned out to be bollocks though
And there was me thinking it was all true. What a sad deluded fool I am
My mate owns and publishes an F1 magazine and iv been to afew party's and charity do's with him and you would not believe the amount of celebrity's,footballers and all round "so called" sport's personallity's on cocaine. Got afew pictures where they look a little worse for wear and with evidence. Also got evidence of a certain premiership striker taking cocaine with his bodyguard's circled round him. Have seriously thought about selling the pic's on because this striker is a CRUNT and plays for a CRUNTy team.
