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.

Please meeeeestor Tony. Don't be so hard on yourself!!
Just because some might say you sold out to the corporate Gooner when you became a moderator... Some might say that, I wouldn't!
Welcome IW8! It's not usually all arguments on here but we do like to hear differing opinions (contrary to what augie would tell you ) and we like a good debate.
DB10 hits the nail on the head as usual, you might say that some of us are master debators. sorry couldn't resist
There are too many Arsenal fans who have blind optimism,They think every player we sign is a great player.Remember how many fans came on this forum raving about the Beast before he had even kicked a ball for us,He turned out to be a big pile of shite.
DaSilva and Sanga may be good signings but wait till they have played some games first.
Just because someone gives an opinion opposite to another Gooner does not make them less a supporter.This forum would be very boring if everyone had the same views.Just because a player wears an Arsenal shirt does not mean he is above critisism.
I would prefer Arsene to sign proven players who have played in the league but who was the last payer he signed from another premiership team ??? i can't remember
augie wrote: Dunno about you TS but I am getting well pissed off with all the "angels" that we have supporting The Arsenal lately as any bit of criticism see's the culprit denounced on the spot and condemned as not an arsenal fan. Where does in say that to be a gooner you cannot see anything negative about the club, it's players or it's staff ? Do all these angels attend matches at the emirates and come out claiming that every player had a blinder because slating a players performance would be treachery of the highest order ? I am a gooner for over 30 years now and in that time we have seen some good times and some not so good times and during that time my support hasn't wavered and I really resent being branded as a non arsenal fan if I call things as I see them on occasions. I liked your initial article delboy even if I didn't agree with some points on it and while I felt that it was upbeat and light your response to TS was anything but. There is an awful lot of good positives about Arsenal lately but make no mistake there are some glaring negatives as well. I have zero confidence in the board, AW's contract situation will be there until it is resolved, the lack of wingers and experienced players so go ahead and condemn me....I must be a traitor. Your anti-debate attitude belongs in the old communist ussr my friend
augie my dear comrade, Im sorry if my response to TS upset you a bit I have been a gooner for 55 of my 60 years now and proud of it and I am no Angel supporter and have seen a lot more dross times than good times and quite a few times nearly coming to blows supporting my beloved Arse (no quips please). Surely this is what this forum is all about - discussion, debate and if it comes to it disagreement. As I keep saying its only my opinion - as its only TS's opinion, and I disagreed with his opinion as he disagreed with mine - but traitor, augie, where the fuck did that rear its ugly head from. Everybody can air their views on here thats whats it all about, which comrade you wouldnt have done in the old USSR.
Perhaps I should change my handle to COMRADE DELENIN
