The Gooner Forum

easy for them to look ok when they have NO champions league to think about and its only a 1/4 of the season gone......pretty sure they will finnish 6th

"Jews and Sheenies?"

I am no fan of Spurs but no fan of describing them in those terms either, regardless of if they use the Y word themselves.

Our midfield isn't the best on paper, but we still dominate the ball, its our passing style, everyone has to play it at arsenal.

How else could you explain us seeing so much of the ball against spurs (they've got better midfielders than us!) and they were the home team. Spurs' midfield would cause problems for other teams because most other teams are inept at passing the ball in this league.

Anyway we're starting to sound like spuds obsessing over our geographical rivals. If we only aim to overhaul spurs we may well finish behind.

Just do what we usually do, delude ourselves to think we try and catch utd, fail miserably and get into the top 4.

Mate. I am sorry but never in a million years can I be convinced that a midfield of Song/Ramsey/Arteta/Gervinho is better than a midfield of Bale/Modric/Lennon/Parker. Never, Never. Never. I don't know a sinle non-Arsenal fan who thinks Arsenal have a midfield anywhere near as good as the Spuds. FFS Spuds have a better midfield than ManYoo!!!

So do we. Man U's midfield is utter shite.

It is indicative of how moderately I moderate this forum these days, but those posts went under my radar. Having had a look back at them now, what can you say? It goes back to a point that was made on here about John Terry (that I believe you made, Quartz). He's probably not a racist. He's just an idiot who either doesn't understand the severity of what he's saying or simply doesn't give a shit.

I suppose you could argue that it's poor form for a moderator not to take any action, or at least have a word over contentious posts, but when I have in the past, I've been greeted with, "Jesus, it's PC gone mad!!!!!1!!" so, unfortunately, what's the point? 99% of this forum probably doesn't understand or doesn't give a shit about why using the term 'Jew' in a contemptuous manner or using the term 'Sheenies' is unacceptable, so what can you do?

MLK would be proud!

Spuds are now FIVE points clear of Arsenal with a game in hand at home to Everton (which they really should win).
Next weekend, Spuds have a home stroll against Bolton whilst Arsenal have a tricky away fixture against a desperate Wigan side who of late, seem to get results against us (2-2 last season, 3-2 season before that).

And yet, I continue to hear comical Arsenal fans with the blinkers on claim there is no threat. Yeah. Carry on lying to yourselves. The gap with the Spuds is getting bigger.

Why does it bother you everyone on here knows you are spuds fan anyway

Hey McDowell. You and Gunnersaurus were wanking yourselves to death Wednesday night as we beat Dortmund, claiming that anyone questioning the team was bla bla bla.

I'd just like to remind you, of what an Ignoramus you really are.
Please see tonight's 'performance'.

Ah thats more like it some of us dont always share your opinion so as usual you resort to name calling.


You remind me of USmarty only from different ends of the spectrum.He used to insult people when they didnt agree with him,but you must be delighted adebayor scored twice for your team today.

Ha ha that the best you got? Yeah 'you is a Spudz fan' Heh. Course.
Just thought I'd spend all my time on the 7th placed Premier League team forum, because Arsenal look sooooo threatening eh?


Like I said. It's nothing to do with not sharing an opinion. It's to do with the fact that YOU refuse to accept my criticism of the team and resort to chatting shit when I slate e.g. Wenger/Song. Today, you look a mug again. But yeah, if the best you got is calling me a 'Spud' (ha ha ha ha) I'll let you carry on!

Actually alot of your criticism is spot on baba but im generally a very positive fellah so while you have your points im positive bout us when we win and negative when we dont.You ask my wife how im a nightmare to live with when we dont win.She wont come near me for few hours after a bad result(well thats why i think she wont come near me)

Tottenham have over taken us, the fans can see it, but no one at the club seems bothered

3 or 4 years ago, it was no competition and we expected 6 points of them every season

now it's got to the stage where they are now beating us home and away and going in to games as favourites, how did that ever be allowed to happen

and now man for man they have a better squad and surely no one can be suprise if they finish above in the league

and our only hope is appy harry takes the england job and they go back to employing shit managers and finished 7th

Which you conveniently forgot you began

I must say I dont see McDowell looking like a mug Tunde........in fact I agree with totally what he says regarding you senseless attacks on all and sundry, and that comes from someone who thinks you are an ok fella.

Was wondering how long it would take you to come and back up your mate


Calling him a spuds fan isnt exactly at the severe end of name calling

Calling a Gooner a "Spuds fan" is the biggest insult i can think of

TBH most of us think that Spuds squad is stronger than ours. I thought that without Modric and VDV they would lose to West Brom, but they still had enough quality to win
I hope my response will not lead to some one calling me a Spud
