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.

Yeah this is just your typical anti arsenal shite. Most of the examples involve obvious wummery and jokes that have flown over the heads of other fans. The hijacking of polls is usually a case of taking the piss, no-one really thinks welbeck would be worth 200m and every London club had numpties with selfish sticks
For piers Morgan, why focus on him and not decent gooners like idris Elba, Paul kaye, Alan Davis.
People can focus on the latte nouveau rich Arsenal or the proper Arsenal, and guess which one these student ran websites focus on? Could I give a Fuck if some spotty 20 year old palace fan from esher who started going to palace once their twatty ultras turned up thinks we're shit fans? Could I Fuck. ..

This. For anyone who has been to Selhurst park down the years quite frankly the atmosphere for decades was shit. Fuck knows where this fanatical following has turned up from but they wern't around in the 80s/90s.
It's quite funny talking to youngsters about football, they seem unable to grasp that football did exist before they where born which conveniently these days is around the inception of the prem league. That's why they cream themselves over a manufactured last minute goal by Aguero vs QPR against a moment of pure drama in 1989 that even if you described the situation in the minutest detail they wouldn't get.

Exactly. I often notice that fans don't really celebrate a goal as a shared experience anymore. It's probably a hangover of no terraces.

Agree DB10 - at any away game now there are so many kids who can't hold their drink and think that they'll command some sort of respect if they dress like somebody out of The Firm and throw beer around. Love a lively atmosphere but these lot are embarrassing pricks.
On a lighter note a grown man wearing full replica kit always brings a smile to my face.
actually got splashed on the head with some bloke's watered down pissy northern beer on the concourse at stoke during the recital of the much maligned ozil song.
fucking beer wasting pricks. if you don't want your shitty beer, toss it on some orc, not on me

Yes really cannot condone this unruly behaviour in what is now a family/corporate environment, whatever next
Buzzfeed is a load of shit. There are some embarrassing fans there but you get them at all clubs now, unfortunately a lot of wankers now follow football, it's hardly a one club problem. Arsenal will have more than most simply because of being a big club, the more tourists you get the more of these attention seeking wankers there are.
Real football fans don't view arsenal fans as embarrassing, tourists and selfie taking bellends don't count as an indication of a clubs support. The core arsenal support, whether they go to games or not, are still seen as one of the more knowledgeable, decent sets of supporters around. A few tourists with selfie sticks or attention seeking students with daft replica strips won't change that
Being the grumpy old geezer that I am (I know most of you dont see me that way ), I bemoan the whole concept of these megapixel cameras being built into mobile phones nowadays For me mobile phones are for texting or phoning people and that is all, so if I want to take a photo I will buy a f.ucking camera Once upon a time fans were prohibited from brining cameras into the stadiums but now (almost) every c.unt in the world uses his/her camera to take photo's and you see so many w.ankers then doing it at matches

Most are tourists, or fleeting visitors, kill the atmosphere and so busy looking at there cameras hardly have time to watch the game
A load of old shit obviously set up by a scum fan. You could replace "Arsenal" with any other club and come up with a similar list. Every club has its decent fans as well as its mongs, arseholes, ItchyBabas and morons.
Exactly right...gonna sound like my mum now, " whoever did it is jealous". We got a new stadium, stayed in top 4, and got a great squad, everything a chav, spud and scouser wants. Both manc clubs have nothing to be jealous of other than the fact they are not based in London.

It's fucking Sky and that *word censored* computer game Football Manager or whatever it's called, that has made middle-class no-mates losers who work in trendy office jobs and want to be up with the 'banter' think they know all about football. Just fuck off out of it and stay at home with your mum, computer games and Coldplay albums. Football was finished the moment they let the first *word censored* take a picture on their phone during a match. Every single one of them that turns up, takes a photo or films the game on their phone should be taken out the back and battered senseless with old-fashioned football boots. Don't even get me going on filming the celebrations when a goal goes in.
