The "little club" Charter

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.

Villa guilty on at least the above two points, possibly more...

Thanks for updating the scores on the doors Dan. You're dead right - the Midlands muppets showed themselves up for the shitty club they are once more. Guilty on both of the counts you point out plus:

- Booing Eduardo at every opportunity (because he's the only player to have ever cheated....funny how quiet they went once Ing-er-lund's Ashley Young got booked for diving)

- Countless chants of "You're support is fucking shit" (oh, the irony when they streamed out at 2-0 down)

In my humble opinion Wolves are still clear leaders in the Little Club Charter 2009/10, although Villa and Stoke both put in good efforts.... :D

It's definitely something in the water in the midlands... I'm willing to bet a fair amount of money that Birmingham will be exactly the same next time we play them.

Either that Digger or years of depression, underachievement and living in one of Earth's biggest cesspits ??

You are dead right, Birmingham will produce their usual "Ing-er-lund, Ing-er-lund" efforts and will probably boo Eduardo seeing as he commited the hideous crime of leaving his leg in Martin Taylor's path.

Personally I'm hoping that if we beat the Hammers in the cup that we get Sheff Utd at home - the absolute, undisputed kings of the Little Club Charter. You'll be able to cry "full house" by half time and will even get a "Ee-aye, ee-aye, ee-aye O.......up the football league we go" :D

You're not wrong there - the irony of us actually replaying a game for them (surely one of the greatest acts of professional sportsmanship) seems lost upon them. I think they were the proud inventors of the "same old Arsenal always cheating", although many other provinicial clubs with chips on their shoulders have adopted it too. It makes me laugh when the likes of Burnley sing it - like how the fuck would they know after three decades without playing us ?????

That's true at least they were singing and ringing that cunting bell all night. But the same old arsenal had me shouting at the telly as Nasri was on the floor with a busted hand.

I actually thought they were going to go the whole night without abiding by the Charter, but the "same old Arsenal always cheating" and "you're gonna win fuck all" became all too tempting for them when they were getting walloped.

In fairness, I thought their support was fucking marvellous and if you can honestly say you've continued singing that loudly at 0-3, you're a bigger man than I am. I was quiet as a mouse when Chelsea went 3 up at our place and to be honest, there were 57,000 other pretty quiet folk too.

I hope Pompey get saved - nice club. However, two points gained on the little club charter but still adrift of Wolves and Villa by a distance :D

West Ham made an entry today with the same old arsenal always cheating after fouling one of our players. *word censored*

Good to see Bolton taking part with the "same old Arsenal, always cheating"

clearly remaining on the ground after being fouled is cheating in their eyes, whereas the stamp on the foot is not :roll:
