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.

Laughed out load (not LOLed ) when I saw Diaby hobbling into the changing room at Anfield... story of his bloody career! poor chap.
Burn g88ner - he's a witch!
I said I laughed... not cackled
So now we know when you post one of these ...it’s not coffee you're spitting out!
To be honest, I already figured you northern hill-folk would be into some kind of sexual deviancy or another, but I always just assumed it would involve livestock. Or some kind of sadomasochistic sex abattoir. Not giggling yourself to a climax like a one-man Chuckle Brother – "to me, to you, to me... to me, to me, to meeee!"
So now we've had the "poowank" and the "gigglewank" on here. I wonder why this place isn't taken more seriously.

I have to admit, I laughed out loud when Diaby came on as a sub that time and went back off injured about 9 minutes later. It was a bit of an unexpected gut reaction. It was either laugh or cry. Laugh kicked in first.
It's not laughter generated by happiness though, just a kind "for fucks sake, here we go again" laugh of resignation. I'd imagine g88ner's was similar...?

Why on earth can't we ditch the headphones and tracksuits and go back to club blazers and a bit more professionalism when arriving at grounds. We look like a bunch of school kids getting off the school coach.
And what the fuck does that tosser Song look like?
Yet another piece of being 'The Arsenal' consigned to history it would seem..............
Cool! I love the behind the scenes, especially in venues where the players are all in such close quarters before and after the match. Makes for an interesting dynamic.
We sure do look like clowns coming in after the classily dressed Liverpool players though. Beats By Dre headphones and track suits =\ George Graham would surely be disgusted - but I guess that's modern football.

100% agreed. We used to be the classy club, players turned up in club blazers with the single gold cannon on, it made a statement of intent. It showed we meant business and showed that you had to have that bit extra in your locker to play for The Arsenal. True enough alot of our players at the time didn't have anything in their fucking lockers but you get the point!
Now our players shamble off the bus looking like a pack of wannabe gangstas or chavs in trackies struttin' to dem booyah beats, init. Ya feel me, blood?

That bastard Hillier didn't care who he nicked from did he?!
Thanks for the vids, interesting stuff... Had a quick search for some Arsenal vids and found a George Graham team talk in 1990 after we had those 2 points deducted...
