It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.
When people cry and bitch about the snooping powers that our intelligence and security services have they should be shown footage of this. Whilst this involved explosives, generally how difficult is it for these people to get hold of a gun and wreak havoc? Our security services must have stopped endless numbers of these attacks with these snooping powers they have. So next time people bitch and complain that GCHQ can use their iPhone microphone and camera to pry on citizens, remember that it could save hundreds and hundreds of lives and nobody is interested in you sending dick pics on WhatsApp. I don't know what powers our intelligence services have and I don't want to know because then they will be pointless.

RIP Buddy.
I'd like to second that
Sean was a proper football ref in my opinion - if you bollock'd him over a decision, then he would bollock you right back instead of getting all sensitive and pretentious like most ref's do I also played against him for years and we had some right battles
Augie ,only 1 son Ryan,I was in total shock when I heard the news yesterday morning.Sean and I started school at the same time all the way up to when we finished our education.Same age as me and like myself only had 1 son ,who was just a bit older than my lad.On a Thursday night when spurs were playing Europa league football I'd post something on facebook taking the piss out of them,and I knew it wouldn't be long before he'd be on ,taking the piss back,and sure enough with in mins he'd be on lol.
I never played football with Sean but did play rugby with him when we were younger.Will be sadly missed kind of put things in perspective for me anyway.His funeral is Sunday ,will be a big turn out,he was very well respected as a man ,I know alot of people had great respect for him as a referee too.

Yeah he would have been respected by most of our club and a few of us intend on going up either Saturday evening or Sunday morning. Tbh I am still stunned by his death - also found out this evening that he was meant to be refereeing our game this Sunday morning and hearing that makes it feel eerie and is something I would rather not have been told
