Is that because it is not a happy hunting ground for us or because something specific happened on Saturday (apart from the result obviously) ?

Probably best for your health, to stay away from the Bridge and that lot really.

Arteta's usual bleats on pravda. On the Chavs official site, Schurrle says how well Mourinho prepared them and "We knew that their full-backs are very offensive and when Arsenal lose the ball there is a lot of space and we wanted to use it".
No surprises there then.

No, it was all football related, not only their chants and banners abouthe European Cup (the day football died), but the fact that they lord it over us now, when the situation was the exact opposite ten years ago. Football can break your heart in a way that no woman ever could.

Has Mariner been stood down for next weekend's games yet ? Awful mistake by an official that should be highlighted and he should suffer public humiliation...Imagine if a club made a big embarrassing mistake, like for example taking an illegible player as part of your squad to a make or break game in Europe. Now that would also be embarrassing.

Huh?!

What fucking madness is this? What the sweet fuck is this "preparing" teams before a game? Fucking madness! I can tell you haven't worked in football for 30 years!

Ironically, the chavs targetted our "very offensive" full backs - the irony being that they are shit going forward!

one criticism I have of Chelsea and Mourinho is why they didnt try and beat us at the Emirates?
we were there for the taking and they just sat back and accepted the point.

Because Moronhio is the ultimate pragmatist. He looked at the fixtures. He looked at how we had been playing and decided "I'd take a point there and 3 at home late in the season after Arsene has failed to strengthen and his best players are injured or burnt out". He has always had a bit of the negative over-cautious nature about his managerial style. A bit like GG used to have. I'd imagine it surprised Moronhio as much as anyone that we were as bad at home as we were that day.

Have to say that I find this marriner bashing a bit ott tbh - yes I know he made an awful mistake by sending off the wrong player but it didnt change the course of the game one jot and the uproar since is distracting us from where we should be focused (which of course suits the akb who are trying to deflect away from wenker

)
If marriner had made the correct decision then he would have awarded the penalty and sent the ox off - we were still going to be 3-0 down and a man short and neither were playing well so did it really matter who got sent off ? Some will try and argue that it shouldnt have been a red card because the ball wasnt going in but, frankly that is utter bollox - now, after watching tv replays, we can all see that it was going wide but at the time it looked a nailed on red card.

I am one of the bigget ref critics you will ever meet but I'm not sure about this shit about suspending/standing them down - for me it puts a bullseye on their backs in subsequent games and only adds to the pressure on them. It was one mistake for gods sake - yes it was a big mistake but it wasnt a game changer and it wasnt as if he had been poor throughout (which for me should be the yardstick for judging whether a ref should be stood down) the game. Rap his knuckles, have a quiet word in his ear and move on imo

Agreed,a refereeing mistake didn't cause our team to collapse,that damage was done in the dressing room with lack of tactical nous and motivation,it didn't help our cause but it wasn't the sole reason.

The mistake Marriner made wasn't just about mistaken identity. It was because he gave the decision even though he didn't see the handball. Neither did the linesman. If they had they would have immediately known it was a penalty and immediately ensured they knew which player it was.

As has been said by just about everyone we can't complain because we deserved to be 3-0 down and down to 10 men, and it didn't make one iota of difference who got sent off seeing as Chamberlain was trying to do Gibbs' job for goals 2 and 3 anyway! But it seems quite obvious to me that none of the officials have seen it yet the decision has been given based on their appeals. Right result (sort of

) but completely flawed process and I'm glad he got exposed for it, no sympathy whatsoever with that coward especially after the Ramires penalty he gave them.

Mistaken identity for Gibbs so no ban & also the Ox supposed red card quashed so no ban there...

The FA do get it right sometimes i guess

So we should only be 1-0 down after 10 minutes now we have our first choice left-back playing!

Yeah, but now the ban has been transferred to Sagna as Marriner apparently says it was the other darkie one.

In the referee's defence, Gibbs and Ox are a similar colour... and fairly similar height and hair.... whereas Sagna is black with dreadlocks
