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.

Now I have just got my shotgun and feel like going for a walk in the woods!!!
You'll not find the Wenger in the woods.
Maybe you should go to the beach, you might find him there with his head stuck in the sand.
Just shoot him please
Why do we bother writing on this forum? Why do we bother writing blogs? Why?
The club doesn't listen to 40,000 booing fans, 1,000 pundits, 10,000 ex players - so why are they going to read this forum and listen to us? After all, we are only fans and we have never played even a moment of professional football (well at least I haven't).
Dont' get me wrong, I agree with almost everything that is written negatively about our once great club. But still, what's the point? Arsehole Wanker isn't going to listen to us.
When the riots were going on down the road, I laughed. Then my feelings turned to disgust at how these "people" were behaving. But maybe they were doing it because they were so frustrated with something that meant something to them. If I'm honest, I could do the exact same thing right now. I could jump on the 271 and go up there and smash the place up. I could set it alight - because something is going on and I just can't do anything about it. None of us can in fact. After that, I'd go straight up to Colney and do the same.
I Love Arsenal Football Club. But I loath the team (playing, management and business).

tom I feel your pain.
Just find some comfort in the fact that we are living Arsenal history today and the nightmare that is Wenger mis-management will all be over soon
The Arsenal PLC piggy bank may well be bursting at the seams but we as a footballing team are bankrupt. The fall from grace gathers momentum, christ we longer can even play tippy tappy. Bleaker days lie ahead.
First game ever that i have left before the final whistle.
Good rallying atmosphere , 'Good old Arsenal ' sang loud and proud.
Did'nt hear the Wenger chant myself. Would'nt be surprised if the club are piping the pro-dictator propaganda through the PA now.
Though i saw a bloke with an opera glass at the game as well
The "One Arsene wenger shout" was from about 30 or so fans.
A little row started offf in block 6 with "spend some f#@??ng money"
A few lads then got on their high horse to tell em to eff off to the Spuds.
At 2-0 the spend shout came up and not a peep from anyone against it.
I will verbaly back a player at the game but will not make any noise against em.
However tensions are running high and the clock is ticking for a desparate roll of the dice if we are not going by the way of the pear.

The only thing I can tell you is this:
We will learn from this and come back even stronger.
We need to give them credit for their attitude and performance today, in the game it is very harsh to lose it the way we did.

i feel sad. really.
You´re right.
But I started this season with no expectations. So I am not so frustrated. It´s the only way for me to deal with that situation. We will not sign anyone, we will finish below 4th place. I know it.

Went to the Beehive Pub close to the Oval to watch the game,
95% were supporting the Scousers, The numbers do not make sense but obviously plastics.
Due to the rain I watched most of the game.
After their second goal I had to sing on my own.
"Have you ever been to Liverpool, have you fuck"
"Support you local team , support your local team", repeat ad nasueum.
Not surprised by the result but our cobbled together team gave it a go,
