Spuds game

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.

I'm backing over 2.5 goals in this. Christ we'll probably concede 3 alone :banghead:

We're going to be 8th going into this game quite possibly. The Hammers are winning 1-0 at Newcastle. Now everyone's going to say "it won't last" and it probably won't but we are now nigh on a third of the way through the season. Is it acceptable after 11 games to be behind West Brom, possibly West Ham and level on points with Fulham.

Its actually possible for us to be in the bottom half of the table next weekend after 12 games.

Simply unacceptable. People wanted Graham out when we were doing this badly 3 months into a league season

My point is that people say "it won't last" when they talk about the likes of WBA and West Ham but its just a fucking joke that we're even entering into the debate. Fucking hell - 7 years ago we were worried about Man Utd. These days I want them to win when they play the likes of Newcastle and Everton because we're in the same tier as those clubs. Its just not fucking acceptable at all

High scoring game, another 2-2, 3-3 or 2-3 I think. Clearly the scum are very dangerous on the break and negativity from the crowd from the start will play into their hands.

Big LOL at all the cunnies on here wanting us to lose matches in order to hasten Wenger's exit though, what's all that about. Sad, sad people.

I meant most of us want regime change root and branch. 3 years ago if O'Neill hadn't cocked things right up by splashing out on ehhhhh Heskey in January, then we wouldhave got whatwe deserved then. My point is as much as we hate being bracketed with let's face it...inferior clubs it's only when we fall below said clubs ,lose JCL and much loved champs league revenue will shit change.

So I say suck it up, we are shit because we are managed badly. I don't think all our players are that bad just poorly handled. Grin bear it because the worse it gets the better it will eventually become for those of us wanting a change.

If we win and go on some false run and maybe scrape 4th and nothing change,s we keep going backwards, being lumped with bottom feeder shite like the filth,spammers and the blue dippers. If you're happy for us to limp along pathetically for another 7 years then you have very low expectations for YOUR club not Kronkite's,AW's or the Hill-Woods.

It's yours and it deserves better, you deserve better than the shite you are being given.

9 points off third after 11 games when the Chav scum beat the Mickeys....already 1-0 up

Might as well be 90 points for all the likelihood of us making any impact whatsoever on the title race. Damn right we deserve better. Trophies are hard to win - no denying it, but conceding the title or even a tilt at fucking THIRD PLACE after 11 games is beyond a joke

Wenger answered a question on Arsenal.com entitled '....on losing points in the title race'. Fuck me we've got more chance of winning the boat race.

The best thing that can happen is that a 4th team emerges in this country with a rich owner and the FFP finally falls apart under legal challenge - then the last smokescreen of deception will have been removed and even the last remaining JCL will see us for what we are when we finally miss out on the Boreathon League.

It's about wanting the club to move forwards for the first time in 7 years. Even if we replaced Wenger and finished 12th, it would still be progress, because we would be rid of the blind fool who runs our club!!
Bigger laugh at the cunnies who don't want change.....muppets of the highest order.

but a true Gooner would never wish defeat in a NLD. If things are that bad you should take a break from football and this place too.

Agreed 100%. How anyone could even start to wish for a defeat against those fuckers is beyond me....and anyone naive enough to think that a PL defeat in November will have any bearing on Wenger's future is completely deluded anyway. Win, draw or suffer a 0-5 home defeat, he'll still be talking the talk afterwards and the Board will be further up his rectum when he wins the 'oh so important' thriller against Montpellier a few days later

Guys - cheering against Arsenal isn't on. Especially in this game

You are very deluded if you think Wenger is going to be sacked.

You're a piss poor Arsenal supporter if you ever wish us to lose an NLD.

It's just so outrageous it's beyond belief that people would want this, but no point spending too much time dwelling in it, you're always going to get a big cross-section of supporter on here, from the fairly placid to the toy-out-of-pram throwing numpty that would wish us defeat vs Spurs, such is their obsession with Wenger.

It's a funny thing from the WOBs 'tis that, all this shit about "Arsenal FC, not Arsene FC", yet it's them that won't shut up about the guy.

I believe our technical ability and desire/belief will see us suffer a 2 nil defeat.

If you had read my first post you would know I don't actually waant us to lose but find it sad that because some of us'deluded' supporters want something to change you think we are what was the word you used 'cunnies'.

If you read most posters who are disgruntled it's not just AW they have a problem with but the whole set up of the club. So no obsession.

No one wants to lose a NLD, you're right though huge cross section of fans on here. One's that respect each others opinions and the others that think a supporter with a differing one is a ...what was that word again :roll:
