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.

Interestingly the North Bank split into two that day with half signing Neill's name and the other half wanting to know whether they were Tottenham in disguise! Spontaneous protests outside the Marble Halls after the game - and there were a lot protesting. And Neill was gone by the following Thursday.
Sound familiar? I reckon Swansea could be Wenger's West Brom: if he loses this one the game's up. Incidentally what's the Emirates equivalent of the Marble Halls or should we all head for the Armoury?
The Armoury...we can buy some arsenal products at the same time.

This.
Pick a game that's coming up soon and boycott.
Or create a protest T-shirt - "Fix it, or F*ck off"
Or buy a black scarf.
Or create a plastic sleeve that you can hang over your seat when you leave, maybe just a black plastic bag will do. Get a thousand or two fans to so that and they will show up quite well when the stadium empties.

The black bin liner is an excellent idea if you could get a couple thousand people to do it. Would stand out like a sore thumb.

Hmmm isn't it traditional for the downtrodden masses in revolt to topple the statues of the dictators they have been forced to hero worship.

The game was against third division Walsall in the league cup.We lost 2-1
i think it's wrong to do it at a low key game like this - needs to be done on our next televised match - so everyone who watches on SKY can see it
not sure about the black binliner, surely the stewards would get suspicious if all of sudden a 1000 people turn't up with a black binliner on there person...

how would they know? 1 bin liner would be tiny when folded up, piece of piss to sneak in, you could literally put it in your pocket, or down your pants if you're paranoid

Yes, I seem to remember Tommy Caton's signing from Man City (RIP) got announced over the loud speaker as the players were warming up before the game and then Chris Whyte then had a nightmare of a game
