Highbury Spy

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.

Highbury Spy

Post by Eboue-Why? »

Reading The Gooner on the way home and yet again he was his normal miserable self. One edition he might be happy for the whole of his article rather than 2 lines.
Is he this miserable at home? Does anyone know him personally? Or have I got him all wrong?!?

Give the Spy his due !

Yes, he is of a critical persuasion, of late. But let's face it - it ain't difficult :evil:

And the guy is no Johnny-Come-Lately, as he clearly goes back to the days of Terry Neill and Bertie Mee.

He's one of the true 'Bankers' in the Gooner that I always read. And when he does get it wrong, he will hold his hands up and admit it ! :shock:

So I have him down as a real Gooner and a Good Egg - :wink:

Me too, I'd never even read a single Gooner when I signed up a year and a half ago.

I haven't either. :oops:

And I think I came across the site via a news link site. ArsenalNews or something.

My excuse is living overseas. Pity though, I wouldn't mind making possible submissions if I knew exactly what sort of things they want to print.
