Losing 8-2 to United is understandable?
Losing 2-0 at home to any team is understandable?

We are Arsenal and should not be in a postion where losing is understandable, the problem with the team is they have the same attitude as you when it comes to losing and not enough winners in the team and that is Wengers fault!

Actually that's what it says in the small print on our season ticket !
That's basically what they told me with regards to my banner. Arseholes.
Is this the mysteriuos banner that hasnt been shown yet? :?

:wink: :)
The banner that has such power that doesn't need to be even shown in public yet strikes fear into the hearts of AKB's throughout the land?
The secret banner? Dont mention that banner - its a secret.

Cheers mate. How come I ain't meeting the fine lady? Would she view me and Jay as competition?

I don't think I made a very good impression on Mrs Jayson after Spurs though... Was a bit drunk and a bit angry.. ;)

You can't fear change.

I'm sure there were people who didn't want George Graham to move on, but that seemed to work out for everyone, didn't it? Same goes with Rijkaard being replaced by Guardiola.

Previous success cannot "lock in" a manager forever.

I stand by what I have said.

If we had beaten Blackburn then we would actually be having a better league season than last if you compare the results of the corresponding games. Also we would only be 1 point below Liverpool and level with Spurs and nobody would be questioning whether we will make the top 4 this season

So it was 'understandable' to have the worst defeat in 115 years? :roll:

Is it ever 'understandable' top lose to sp*rs?

I dont know why the 2-8 defeat is such a big deal to people.
They could have won 10-0 but Utd would still only get 3 points for it.

I think bearing in mind we would have struggled to beat any side after the Udinese win because of fatigue, injuries, suspensions etc that we may well look back and think that this was the perfect time to have played Utd, as it would have been tough to get anything anyway.

Wenger even confirmed my view this week and said that in his opinion the Udinese game was the biggest game of the season. Last night backed that up. If we hadn't won that night then we would have gained none of the confidence that is now being found in the CL group stages matches.

I know to some of you this comes across as being a WUM I really do not intend this and I feel last night justified my opinion of a few weeks ago
