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.
Not exclusively. I'll hob any class of woman if given the opportunity!!
Gus,
As I'm sure you know, that gag about the biscuit was an old cricketer's tale, told I think by the Australian David Boon to a South African fielder (although that could be the other way around). It is an absolute classic!!

Was it not Shane Warne to an English fielder when they "asked" him how he'd put on so much weight?
I'm a chef in a certain Marriott hotel in East London. We sometimes get a group of overrated wannabe starlets and journeymen staying who claim to be a 'Big Club'. Anyway they weren't too happy with the food last time and they've requested a new menu for their next stay. Pretty much "anything but lasagne" they said. Here's what I've come up with:
Starters:
Smoked Salmonella
or
Ledley King Prawn
Main Course:
Prize Turkeys (with a traditional Highbury stuffing)
served with
Mashed Spuds
and
Dutch Cabbage

Warney had balooned since the previous tests.
DB10GOONER,
ALTHOUGH WARNEY MAY WELL HAVE USED IT, THAT GAG WAS DEFINATELY USED MANY YEARS BEFORE BY SOMEONE ELSE. I REMEMBER THE QUOTE BUT CAN'T PUT A NAME TO THE PLAYER THAT SAID IT FIRST.

Cheers lads. Unfortunately I have to admit to being nothing as glamorous as a professional poisoner (or pest controller in this context). I'm merely a humble servant of the taxpayer like DB10. Fortunately this means that technically I don't serve Spores fans as they're mainly fraudulent benefit claimants or inside.

I believe that it was Eddo Brandes, the rather "portly" Zimbabwean bowler/ farmer, in an exchange with Glenn Mcgrath.
Another one I quite liked:
One of the Mark Waugh to a county cricketer:
"Who the f**k are you? You're shit!"
County cricketer:
"Maybe, but at least I'm the best cricketer in my family"
There was a book released over here this week called "The 100 Best Sporting Sledges"
Radio was discussing it, and they actually mentioned that Mark Waugh one. I think Waugh told him he wasn't good enough to play for England after he had hit him for four 4's and two 6's in one over or something.
Number one was 'whatever it was that Materazzi said to Zidane in the WC Final.'
