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.
OK, confession time. This is nowhere near as bad as Babu's confession , but here goes.....
from 1975 and right up until we moved to the Grove.....I only went to a handful of Arsenal games.
I never stopped being a Gooner. But, for various reasons, I just didn't bother going.
I even had a spell of watching Brighton instead. Ten miles down the road. Carloads of mates. Nice beer-up before and after the games. It was good stuff. Brighton v Totters was a good day. A sp*rs fan walked through our bit of the South Stand and got a good "snotting" from one of my mates....who was actually a Brighton-supporting sp*rs fan! I certainly had a chuckle at that one.
That's my confession done. I can only say in my defence that up until 1975 I put a good shift in for my beloved Arsenal. Roughly 200 matches attended.
Im also think that Arsene and Dein screwed Ashley Cole. If some one offered you £20 a week then said here is £15 none of us would of taken or been happy with it. And i hate to admit thats what happend to Ashley.
I'd assume that's an unpopular statement, but it's definitely my take on things.
Edit: Oh, another one. I never warmed to Sol Campbell, and actually thought he was overrated. Why is he chosen in Arsenal XI sides instead of Bould or Keown, who were much more reliable and put in many more years of service? Campbell also seemed like a rather odd chap when interviewed and such like too.
I think Van Persie 100% heard the whiste in Barcelona. I heard it all the way up in the back row.
I think we were lucky to beat Barcelona
I used to jump the que when buying tickets (at Highbury) before the days of internet bookings.
I thought Adebayour celebration against us Vs Man City was one of the funniest things ive seen and wished there was more of that in football (as it had real meaning)
I still cant belive Sol left Spurs for us (how could you)

I loved Martin Keown more then Tony Adams.
I was dissapointed when Adebayeor left. I was just starting to like him.
I was angry when we signed TH14. I thought he was overated.
I thought Jose M was quality.
The only player I would not sell at Arsenal is Jack W. I think everyone else is overated.
I think David Dein has to take huge blame for the current situation at the club
I once missed an Arsenal game to take a girl shopping.
I still bad for Bruce Rioch.
I hope it was for some Durex for her cock crawl
Lol.....that was years ago, I thought i was in love...didnt even get to 2nd base. We went to Brent Cross. When it was 3,20pm I knew i made a mistake and tried to go to dixons to buy a radio.
