Official forum versus Gooner forum

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.

Okay, going back to the main point of this thread. The official forum has always been quite criticial of this place. They've often rubbished our opinions, the way we do things, some of what gets posted etc. etc. Personally I don't have a problem with the official. I don't post there though as I don't believe in excessive censorship, political correctness and over inflated egos of any particular individuals that may or may not exist. My feelings are that they are governed by the club quite strictly as what appears on there can be directly attributed to the club. On here though our views can much more honestly reflect those of "The man in the street". I prefer to be honest and not bound by excessive rules all the time.
One thing I did notice though. For a forum that has regularly expressed disapproval of us they don't half copy a lot of what we do don't they! Has anyone else noticed how they now have "Official match thread" for each game. There are a few other aspects of this place that they appear to have copied too. Have a look and you'll see for yourselves.

Maybe we are what they secretly aspire to be :lol: :lol: :lol:

Are you allowed to be members of both forums?

I was told if you joined here you was barred from the official and vice versa?

Sorry I didn't know that was the rules.

I will go and scan the copy of Big Jugs International I have in my desk draw and send them the images to my PC.

I will then post them here for you.

Agree with your views on the official, even though I'm not a member of it (and never will as I personally think it would be like ''playing away from home'' :lol: )

I do sometimes pop over there for a sneak (I'm heavily into
voyeurism you know :wink: ) and they do copy alot of our threads..... and we should all take it as a complement...... (the plagiarizing bastards) :evil:

Nah. That's bollocks.

I still visit the official occassionally. So do other people on here.

Reg has made the point that you should visit the site (and throw in some comments) from time to time.

There are a lot of good people on there. But it is spoilt by a few who are up their own arses.
