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'm with you gus so say the word and we'll all go on an official strike(not sure what good that will do though) Maybe our forum is being taken over by a huge new superpower formed by the merger of AFC & redaction - a name for this new company is yet to be decided by apparently the favourite at this stage is "the politicly correct and tight arsed balance sheet crew" - dont bother trying to steal their name as it has already been copyrighted along with any word or phrase which is even half associated with our club
Have to agree with you too Gus on the whole rose tinted crew as they are totally getting on my tits too. I have zero problem anybody coming on here rubbishing my opinions but do so on the facts as you see them and not the usual "everything will be ok" or "arsene knows" or our very favourite saying "can do a job " Some people think that to criticise our club is disrespecful is means that we dont love the club as much as they do and that clearly is total bollox. Like a lot of you I have loved this club over 30 years(man & boy) and in that time friendships and relationships have come and gone but The Arsenal was my one constant. Shit can go on anywhere in the world and if I dont care about it then I wont talk about it but I do care about this club(sometimes too much) and that is where my frustration comes from. The funny thing is the people on hear who dont want to hear any criticism of the club are the same ones who strongly oppose the likes of usmanov for amongst other things a fear that the fans voices will no longer be heard - well guys if you want fans voices to be heard then you have to be willing to listen to them even if it is negative comments.
I have no idea if this censorship was accidental or not and I agree that most of the time the people running this site are very fair and open minded(mind you I did have one of the moderators questioning my intelligence not too long ago ). I hope that everything will be back to normal asap so that we can all go back to discussing/bitching/slagging each other as before.

THAT'S PROBABLY BECAUSE THE SERIOUS STUFF HAS STARTED AND WE'RE ALL NERVOUS AS HELL!! HOWEVER, I HAVEN'T NOTICE ANY DISCERNABLE DIFFERENCE IN THE QUALITY AND VARIETY OF POSTS SINCE THE SUMMER.

I THINK WE NOW HAVE THE EXPLAINATION - APPARENTLY THE SITE WAS ATTACKED BY HACKERS YESTERDAY SO THINGS HAVD TO BE DELETED.
rebel gooner wrote:arsenal.com we do not want to become
THERE'S NO CHANCE OF THAT HAPPENING WHILE THE LIKES OF YOU, GUS, AUGIE, WAYNO AND I ARE ON HERE!! THE DAY THE FORUM GETS THAT CENSORED IS ALSO THE DAY I LEAVE.
I seriously hope the site administrators haven't decided to censor the comments which we make.
I read the witty (yes Gus being witty) post by Gus in the For Sale & Wanted section and had a laugh at it. I also laughed at his post in the thread asking for material for the new issue of the Gooner, fucking hilarious considering I had just tried logging in 5 minutes beforehand and was greeted by a load of Greek/Russian text, genuis Gus and made me laugh aloud.
If these posts were removed by the site admin because they were believed to be part of some sinister sabotage scheme, then why are we not being told of this?
Please gooner.ed or robburne,enlighten us as to what is going oin behind the scenes and please assure us that the very heart and soul of our favourite forum hasn't been sold out in favour of a shiny new club level type site during the recent upgrade.
