Is there an incident or decision that STILL pisses you off?

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.

I am sorry for any offence.

It wasn't intended - I was making a joke out of the way other people view Arsenal and the "fear" that is put out in some of our newspapers.

I've never been through what you have so cannot understand the feelings you have like you do, although I understand how you describe it. I hope you get your wish of an independent country soon and don't have to feel like a prisoner anymore.

I hope you continue to visit this forum, as it is interesting to hear your views.

KAQAK, I think you might have misunderstood Galasso there, buddy.

The English sense of humour is very similar to the Irish one; we use a lot of sarcasm, puns and irony. Galasso has never posted anything racist or xenophobic on here, so I don't believe for a moment that he was having a go at immigrants.

I realise that the Irish/English sense of humour is not easily comprehended by a lot of other nationalities but rest assured it is just humour and well within the boundaries of taste.

I don't want to patronise you but I'll give you a quick example; I could end this post by saying "We love all nationalities on here.......except the bloody French! Crowd of snail murderers! :wink: "

Now I don't really hate the French, I quite like them; I once had a French girlfriend (lovely girl) and just look at the impact they've had on Arsenal! The added "wink" emoticon ( :wink: ) indicates humour.

So, don't rush to take offence or judge something that was intended as humour. And please don't be put off the forum by a misunderstanding, mate.

All the best. (And sincere apologies if this has come accross as patronising in any way - it wasn't intended to be).

Dont worry Bra, i love England and as any Albanian around this planet we Love and respect English and Americans more than any other nation in this univers, but we dont love Serbians because ....., rusians, french etc.

Long story, it bothers me to talk about, but i also love every Arsenal fan all over this planet.

I never have the chance to have an french or any other nation girl friend exept Amerikan because i never left this place, it was allways like a prison.

Losing the 1973 FA Cup semi final 2-1 to Sunderland still pisses me off to this day. It also had a profound effect on my life and turned me into the perennial pessimist that I am. I was convinced we were going to win 3-0 at least. In those days you got your cup final ticket by saving the tokens printed on the back page of the programme and I'd spent the weeks leading up to the game cutting mine out and getting a couple of programmes that I'd missed during the season at some exhorbitant price from a street stall just to get the tokens and be sure of getting my cup final ticket. Come the day and Sunderland were well worth their win and from that day on I've always been very careful about making predictions, in fact because of that I never predict a win for us, call it a superstition but it's lasted ever since that april day in 73 and I still think it's a very bad omen if I'm ever rash enough to even come anywhere near predicting a win :wink:

Most of Paddy's red cards were for understandable retaliation for outright assault at times with a variety of so-called 'refs' ignoring the initial provocative foul. They all still bug me. :evil:
