Is it safe to fly????

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.

isn't this swine flu similar to the spanish flu, in that it derives from putting swine and poultry together. The diease jumping from birds to swine and then to humans.

Spanish flew originated from Kansas allegedly.

That's not a bad idea, he could man mark Ronaldo, everyone knows what a tart he is, he won't want any of it, job done, UTD's threat sorted.

The big one in 1918 killed more people than WW1 but I wouldn't try to dodge the bullet. One of those supreme ironies would be to not go to Cyprus and catch it on the tube. :-P

Before you fly you should consider the story of Mr. Play It Safe. You see

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
'Well isn't this nice...'
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think


Ah fuck it. GO!

GO!

This is so over hyped it's unreal! The only people who have died are those in Mexico who had no access to medical treatment. People in 3rd world countries die in their hundreds from diseases we've long got rid of and got perfectly good cures for - they aren't suddenly pandemics! The chances of catching it are remote and even if you do you'll just end up with a bad cold! :banghead:

There is a good side to this guys:-


Tonight Adebayor will score four and stay onside all night
Eboue will be man of the match
Ferguscum will applaud every Arsenal goal
Manure will not get a penalty
and Rooney will not swear at the ref


oh...sorry.....I'm getting confused between swine flu and pigs might fly :oops: :lol:

Now I am known not to worry about anything really but what with this swine flu and the fact that you can catch it from up to 10 metres away from the person who sneazes it has got me a tad nervous.

A plane is a well known bug breeding ground cos the air is recycled, what if someone starts sneazing behind me what do you do ?

Don't really care about me but have the wife to think about.

Go or cancel?
Myself the wife and son are going to Spain next week to stay with my sister.I am not slighest bothered about this swine flu as usual it is being blown out all of proportion.We had the same panic a few years ago about bird flu and then it was SARS did millions of people die because of these diseases NO.Go on holiday mate and fucking enjoy yourself .As someone else said on this thread if we are going to worry about this swine flu we would never step outside the door. :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

At last a voice of reason. I thought for a moment I was on my own. Scotlandf has an 'outbreak' 'cos TWO people have it. Fucking scaremongers. How many pensioners die of 'ordinary' flu every year?

GET A FUCKING GRIP.

We had bird flu so killed a load of birds, we've got swine flu so we'll kill a load of pigs.

What kind of flu you all looking forward to next? I know what I'd like to see . . .
Spurz flu. Obviously. :barscarf:

Swine flu.

If it wasn't for those fucking flying pigs, we wouldn't be worried.
