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.
Somebody (IHH I think) came up with the idea in another thread for a song about Nike/the board getting rid of our white sleeves (well, just about) with the new kit. Thought I'd throw my 2-pennies in as usual:
To White Christmas:
We - want our fucking white - sleeves back
Just like the ones we used to wear
And if you loved Arsenal, like we love Arsenal
You’d know, exactly why we care
We - want our fucking white - sleeves back
When will you ba-stards see the light
That red sleeves are for Scouse and Manc shite
Cos The Arrr-se-nal wear red and white
Thought about making the 2nd line: "like the ones Rocky used to wear" but wasnt sure as it felt a bit like it would be using/exploiting his name so out of repsect changed it. Wondered what you guys thought?
Just to clarify it's aimed at the board/Nike not fellow Gooners
Cheers Hlebby, much appreciated. Might give Red Action a shout closer to pre-season & see if we help get some of these songs on here kickstarted. Maybe a 'wear your away shirt day' like the DB10 orange day at Highbury might emphasise the point - not that I really expect the bastards to listen.

That's the problem. If they adopt a similar attitude to the one they had over Cashley baiting then there is no chance they'll take it up. However, it's so good that it's still worth a try.
Oh, by "the bastards wont listen" I meant the board not Red Action but yeah, you're probably right. They obviously didnt take to the Eddie/Torres song for some reason - maybe cos they didnt come up with it. Just thought a sea of yellow shirts singing that song at the board might actually register on their radar somehow.
As for Ronaldo, the possibilities are endless:
He upped and he left, jumped on the first flii-iiight
Without Ronaldo, United are shite
He's leaving on a jet plane
That c*nt Ronaldo's off to Spain
Is that Ronaldo sitting rotting in the stands
Is that Ronaldo sitting rotting in the stands
Cos if it's not Ronaldo sitting
Fergie was bullshitting
And United have lost their one man band
