usual thread starterâ€¦ To text or not to text? Do you think itâ€™s ever justified or is it breaking an unwritten law? Definitely food for thought and I think that there will be disagreement over this one.

We had a ruck in our stand for the European match - some guy decided to stand up to photograph the match, a steward told him not to. He sat down and said ok. He then stood up later, photographed the game then turned around and photographed the steward in question. This set off an ongoing argument with stewards and fans - all because a total prat acted like a prat.

I just know I'm going to be in trouble at some point for use of industrial language, its just the way I've always been at games. Which is just one reason why I'm always very nice to the stewards as I enter my block.

The obnoxious woman spoken of by S Emess also gets fans chucked out at away games, the fat bitch. Could someone find out where she sits and then we could all complain about her distasteful hat.

Actually the thief was wearing a tie when we played the Chavs - doesn't stop him being a thief though.

The thought that anyone in our ground would actively grass up another Arsenal supporter is absolutely disgusting, unfortunately though i am sure there are more than a handful who will welcome this sceme and make full use of it. What ever happened to sticking up for your own? This is just another example of how our 'matchday experience' is being made horribly sanatised and devoid of any passion. Whilst the away support that comes to the grove can stand, swear and generally take the piss, if we are to give anything back we are at risk of being grassed up by our own fans for doing nothing more than what normal behavior of a football crowd. We all need to swamp this service with messages until it is stopped, i suggest most of them be along the lines of 'Foul - the stink that is coming from around an unusualy large and grotesque looking creature'.

Anyone who "grasses" up another gooner for some minor infringment like swearing or standing is a fcuking weasel in my opinion

A sad sad time for the club. Anyone who uses this service other than to ridicule it, ie "fat bitch" is not a proper fan. If you have an issue with someone sort it out man to man (woman).

It is only a matter of time until I get kicked out for use of foul language directed at the wanky early leavers. This whole idea of grassing up fellow gooners really stinks and is just further evidence of how fucked up our once beautiful club is fast becoming. Whatever next.....Bagels & cream cheese

SMOKE â€“ I donâ€™t smoke, donâ€™t like inhaling cigarette smoke, but we are in the open air here. I am not going to get lung cancer as a passive smoker from someone lighting up. I am not going to text anybody about this. Get a life.

'grass a gooner hotline' lol. I only read it in the program on the way home, the swearing and standing thing scares the shit outa me!!!. and i couldnt help woundering how many people broke the homophobic rule with regard to cashley. My mate went to the liverpool utd game and said they have a similar thing at anfeild. I understand the thinking behind it, it gives somone vunerable (lets say a mother with a young child) the chance to stop somthing like racism without getting involved in a confrontation, so why not just have it in the famly enclosure! I will however be using this number to grass on a gooner for standing....
standing up to leave with 10min to go!!!
