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.

But they all had one thing in common. They were all in the past tense. Like obituaries. Hard to describe my feelings. I really thought it was the end. It looked like the host was even trying to flog the site name! A life going forward without DB10...IHH....stearmaster..... charliegeorgewhocanhitem (my fellow old geezer!) etc etc. My "goonermates" as my mocking family describe you lot!
Anyway, its great to see you back. Not sure I fully understand what had happened. Maybe someone can PM me with the details - but please don't tell me on the thread.....
It also made me appreciate, a little more than normal, the fantastic effort that the unsung online gooner admin team put in to keep the site up and running (even at times when there isn't an "outside influence" trying to take it down!). Thank you guys!!
Can someone please tell me what the fcuk went on ? Ye all seemed to know about it all while I seem to be totally ignorant about recent events and it is killing me It this some sort of new clique where striaght talkings guys like me are excluded ? Somebody email me details asap please.
By the way I dont care how sad this make me but I have missed this forum and all you other fans so much in the last few days - I only had my other imaginary friends to talk to

I'm completeley in the dark too. Who is the James Bond baddie type weiding such power? What the fuck appened? For all I know there could be legal reasons why it can't be posted publically so if anyone can be arsed could they pm with the details please.
The easiest way for anyone in the same position as Augie to find out what happened is to join Facebook (it is v.v. easy, honest) do a search for Tony Briggs or John Dunne and then ask to be their "friend". All will become clear at that stage.
Cheers flash I appreciate it It would be quite funny if it wasnt so serious Although maybe it is easier to say that now that we are back online and can take the piss but when there was a real threat of closure it wouldnt have been so funny
Online at last, gave up tryin to get on in the early hours and have spent the mornin tryin to piece together what has been going on all I can say is some people are beneath contempt
