What is it with this ''if that was Arsenal it would have been given'' bollocks ?

Referees can be crap, pundits have double standards and fans are biased but lets not pretend we are hard done by.

Flamini' 2 footed tackle at Bournemouth - gets away with it. Same for Gabriel against Watford. Blatant foul on Fabregas that should have given Chelsea a pen against us. Got away with that one too. But still then people bleat on about the injustice of the Gabriel red at Stamford Bridge and even the Meterscaker red card when it was a fucking blatant sending off.

Oh an how's the petition coming along to stop Mike Dein being allowed to ref our games? What a fucking embarrassing set of fans we've become. And yeah I blame that fucker Wenger for that too.

Farewell to Upton Park ,shithole that it was !

Real Eastenders support Arsenal !

Yeah a lot of Arsenal down that way

That Boleyn boozer lot are a load of losers and very sad people, and yes the area is a total Khazi

But the old ground had atmosphere with full house and so close to the pitch

Not sure if Arsenal ever visited the Northbank, never heard anything unlike Spurs and Chelsea

Liberties '85 stopped the game for 15 mins after entering the lower west

Kouyate's red card has been rescinded, so he will face us on Saturday.

Yeah scraping a win...should have had a man sent off and a penalty awarded to Southampton, if that was Arsenal that what would have happened
I saw that today, should have walked.


Based on what ?? Simpson was running back to cover the goals and had his arms tight to his body when the ball hit his elbow.......explain to me where the intent or the move of the hand towards the ball or where the hand and arm were in an un-natural position, cos I certainly don't see it :? I dont like the chav manure reject (simpson) but lets be fair and recognise an accidental handball for what it was.
For the second "handball", huth went to block the cross and it ricocheted off his foot and onto his hand from 1 yard away - how or where is he supposed to put his hand if he has to also consider the possibilities of the ball ricocheting ??

Sky and all those braindead media organisations benefit from making controversies where there really should be none, but that doesn't mean that the rest of us should buy into their crap
Definitely moved his arm towards the ball, clear as day that one.........was going into the net definite penalty IMO


Not at all - if it didnt hit his arm, it would have hit him in the side
Going to have to agree to disagree on this one, i saw his arm move out towards the ball PENALTY IMO

Ok fair enough mate :D

I know fans are meant to be partisan (although more so during a game than on forums etc.) ... but I don't think the bad luck or hard done by angle does us any favours because it suggests we are at a disadvantage from influences out of our control when in truth the disadvantage we have is very much caused by those inside the club.

Not sure if this has been posted in another thread.
We dont have a 'title charge' thread?

The top 3 teams remaining fixtures amounted to this haul of points in the corresponding games already played this season.

Leicester 16 pts, won 5, drawn 1.
Spurs 6 pts, won 1, drawn 3, lost 2.
Arsenal 13 pts, won 4, drawn 1, lost 2.

Any akb's still dreaming?

One of Walcott, Giroud or Mertesacker to return to the starting line up?

Giroud will start and score his first goal in 9000 hours ( © Itchybaba :wink: ), we'll win 1-3 and Wenger will talk about mental strength and being still in the title chase. And then we will lose the next 2 games (especially if Leicester and the scum drop points). :roll:
