Van Persie saga, officially not extending contract.

I don't think it 's particularly about titles either. The real medals players are proud of are Player of the Year titles and Golden Boots. It proves you were the best. Any old fool can be part of a title squad. Players want memories and they want proof that they did the best they could. Robin will leave because he feels that we are wasting his talent.

Cant agree with that .Zidane Ronaldinho Henry Ronaldo and Messi have Player of the year titles coming out of their ears.But they all have Domestic titles and The CL winners medals.FFS Bale and Parker won Player of the year trophies last season

Look at gimps like Carrick and Rafael, their medals mean nothing compared to Robin's achievement.

Donaldo, I sense that frankie was just being sarcastic.

Spot. On.

maybe you can save RVP the pressure of taking any decisions at all
why bother picking out your future, your dreams, your wage demands, your home or what you're going to wear tomorrow
we have the telepath soothsayer squad right here at Goon2Goon to tell you not only what you should do
but even what you will do

Numpty altert.

BTW - I saw a guy dressed as Mario in the Wetherspoons in Brum. If that is you, you look a right melon!

Why is everyone so obssessed with RVP's family. How many players have wives and kids? A big proportion of them i guess but they think nothing of going elsewhere when the offer comes in or they think they've achieved all they can. Lets face it RVP could well go back to Holland when he retires and his kids will still be of a school age so that isnt a concern for them at all. Money can buy you many things including the best schooling

Its because he's said it is an important factor in his decision. It comes massively into it. Uping and moving brings a lot of problems, its not strightforward.

screwing!!! I didn't get to wetherspoons...
there was seriously another SuperMario?
gutted

although I find it very hard to believe he looked as much a numpty as me, ET and spongebob did...

Didn't think it was. This fella was too young. Was with a Dinosaur, Flash Gordon and Spiderman.

I've got to say that yesterday was one of the best away games I've ever been to. Really good support before and after, good atmosphere, great weather and a great result. Was great to be a gooner.

Oh, when the wheels come falling off.....

We were behind the goal. We're all in the shot on MOTD when Fulop mis-punches for our winner.

You can see your hat, but someone's fist is obscuring your face.

He has always been open about how his family will play an important factor in his decision.

As for the school comment, he has stated that his kids do not go to an international school, just a normal British school. Believe me, money doesn't always buy the best schooling, just the best connections.

[frankbutcher]

The plot thickens. Go to 6.04. The woman at the top waving stood on her seat with the Arsenal shirt on is apparently RVP's wife Bouchra. Is this why he was looking at the crowd for so long?
