Some fans are blind

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.

and no doubt all they hear is how fantastic all Arsenal players are. Can you imagine the commentator for the blind saying 'Oh my god, Bendtner mis-controls it again...that's the 6th time he's lost the ball in the last 10 minutes'

No, thought not. Must be hard living life through rose coloured specs.
i dont think so, my seat is in front of a blind guy and all he seems to say is 'keep em out' and 'oh no'

chammy and barry scored 4 between themselves last night, and the whole team kept a clean sheet so WTF are you on about???? If the team thats starts against sunderland scores 3 own goal each, trips over each others their laces, miss 6 sitters and then murder a sacreficial goat on the half way line then possibly start a thread like this. But I dont get what you can possibly have to complain about after a 5-0 win for friks sake.

I just dont get some Arsenal fans sometimes, we raise our game after an abismil cup final defeat to win a match 5-0, are through to the next round of the cup against Utd and I was clearly watching a different game on ESPN last night as I thought it was quite an entertaining 90 mins.

Why oh why do you support arsenal if it clearly causes you so much pain?

Depending how long they are out we will miss chances and blow our chance at winning the title.
Vs good defence these guys will come short based on the fact they always do.
If the foward line of Van Persie, Nasri, Walcott backed up by Cesc, Song, Wilshere.
With the defence playing like they did vs Barcleona than this year would have seen us Champions.
I think even Arsahvin adds something when he is a sub so we almost got it right.
Just to add Scezny was not to blame for the Birmingham goal it was just a very bad defensive mistake. I like Scezney he has added steal to our goal lone.

Yeh I agree with this

Last night was a true reflection at all. The fringe players are in a word shit. Denilson with his sloppy passes and his bad fucking attitude. Yes Barry scored 3 but his attitude stinks and against teams like Sunderland and Barca he wont be scoring 3.

Made me laugh the sheep oh I mean fans singing 1 arsene wenger and Wenger give us a wave!!!!

The worst thing for me is loosing RVP, Theo and Cesc I would take them all back for the cost of the carling cup but that is not a choice.


I can say for 100000000000000% certainty we wont win games without them.
This was truly embarrassing even more than the 'who are ya's' to Orient and Barry cupping his ears to Orient fans :oops: :oops: :oops:


This is how most of our fans have become. Idiots in a word.

:banghead:
Loudest chant of the night though. :wink:

if they didn't score you'd be calling them useless twats!

our two cover strikers scored and that should give them both confidence for the future game so we should be very happy with that

On the same subject, I find the ''WHO'' when players of the opposition are subbed off and on just as irriatating, it's patronising to the extreme, especially when aimed at lower league teams.

err, that's the whole point!?!

You need to listen what opposition fans sing/say about us - home and away.

It isn't one-sided and at the end of the day it's just a bit of banter!

Why oh why do you support arsenal if it clearly causes you so much pain?

Someones obviously missed the fact that we were playing league 1 opposition...

So fooking what? We won 5-0, were through to the next round of the cup and ive just confirmed my OT away tickets today. What’s their not to be happy about?

Barca or Orient, whats the difference, we enter cup competitions and can only play who we are drawn against so why the fuck does that get some peoples backs up I just do not know. Some fans just want blood from a stone I tells thee.

Take away his goals and Bendtner was shocking last night, he will get away with it so long as he scores goals though.

A bit like Drogba ? According to Wenger all he does is score goals :D

It is a must for the team that either Bendtner or Chamakh step up over the next 3/4 weeks while RVP is out, so for both of them to score is good for their confidence for the weekend and also for the Barca match.

Isn't that what we all want ??

Yup it is. I think the argument is, it should have happened in the first game but half of the players couldn't be arsed then!
