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.
THE WORD IS A WORD WE ARE NOT USED TO WHEN TALKING OF ARSENAL....
BUT RELEGATION FOLKS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE...
Its the 125th birthday of our wonderful institution that is called Arsenal football club.
We have seen top flight football every year since 1919 and boast a proud history.
We have had hard times, no cups of note during the 60s
No title challenges from 53-70
No FA Cup wins from 50-71 and 79-93
Long periods of wilderness and some top flight battles notably during the mid 70s
But seriously never ever in my time as a gooner have i felt so low.....this is atrocious..
I had hardly anyone text me when we lost 8-2
I have today received 20 plus texts laughing at me from QPR, Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool, Man Utd and even a Plymouth mate of mine....all taking the piss...
I go to work on Monday knowing every kid in my skool is gonna take the piss along with my teaching colleagues.
I had to sit and watch like all Gooners the worst crock of shit i have seen in blue and white amass THREE shots on goal and score four....
ONLY THIS CIRRENT ARSENAL TEAM CAN DO THIS....NO OTHER TEAM DOES IT
Since February and that joke final we have been basically appalling.....
WE ARE RELEGATION FODDER.....AND DONT COUNT AGAINST IT HAPPENING.
Shut up you numpty.
Yes we have big problems, yes we need big changes, yes we probably won't get in the champions league, yes it will probably be another trophyless season.
But saying we seriously might go down, grow up and put your toys back in the pram.
You know what i wouldn't even mind going down for a couple of seasons, might get rid of some of the plums that have attached themselves to our club recently.

In 2005, who would of thought we'd go the next 6 years without winning a singly trophy?
Well it happened.
We've won ONLY 3 games in the last 17 league matches. THAT IS RELEGATION FORM. And there are no signs of it changing.
We've the worst defensive record in the league.
Alarm bells are ringing. As long as that *word censored* remains in charge, you can never say never as to the depths we might sink.
those saying we have no chance of being relegated are still blinded by the Arsenal brand they've been used to.
look at our results going back 17 games. 3 wins. 3. do you need to read it again. THREE WINS IN 17.
RVP isnt even injured yet, and he will be. wilshire will have an injury set-back, out another 2 months until february. how do you see it getting any better. you know they wont spend any money in January. the results will be exactly like they are now, the entire season. it doesnt get any easier than blackburn away or swansea at home.
its a fucking joke, and DARK times are ahead in Arsenal FC. prepare yourself for the worst team you have seen in a long long time.
The team is a complete shambles and anyone who watches regularly could see it before we kicked a ball this season. Today we shipped 4 to the team bottom of the league. We should have been thrashed by Dortmund, and would have had their forwards not shown an Arsenal quality tendency to miss. How many will City put past us? Double figures? What happens when the inevitable RVP injury happens? Who would back this team to actually show some spirit and fight?
