Have to disagree with this, DD was lobbying for AW to get the job of AFC manager long before before Bruce Rioch got the job the and the reason the board initially rejected his suggestion was them looking at AW's portfolio, commenting that he looked like a school teacher or a "professor" and that he would not be able to handle the senior and/or more difficult characters in the dressing room like Adams, Parlour and Merson etc who were, lets face it, hardened drinkers and in Merse's case a degenerate gambler and coke head, and regardless of the subsequent downturn it's very hard to argue deny he turned the culture not just of the club but of the whole league completely around!Babatunde wrote:Thank you very much!n6gooner wrote:aw inherited ta5, got lucky with pv4 and hasn't had a clue about what "captain material" entails ever since. truth is that he couldn't handle the strong character of a real captain which is why neither adams nor vieira returned after retiring

bb - can't dispute what you say, however, not sure what that has to do with aw being unable to appoint conventional, strong and inspiring captainsBelfast Boy wrote:Have to disagree with this, DD was lobbying for AW to get the job of AFC manager long before before Bruce Rioch got the job the and the reason the board initially rejected his suggestion was them looking at AW's portfolio, commenting that he looked like a school teacher or a "professor" and that he would not be able to handle the senior and/or more difficult characters in the dressing room like Adams, Parlour and Merson etc who were, lets face it, hardened drinkers and in Merse's case a degenerate gambler and coke head, and regardless of the subsequent downturn it's very hard to argue deny he turned the culture not just of the club but of the whole league completely around!Babatunde wrote:Thank you very much!n6gooner wrote:aw inherited ta5, got lucky with pv4 and hasn't had a clue about what "captain material" entails ever since. truth is that he couldn't handle the strong character of a real captain which is why neither adams nor vieira returned after retiring

is this sort of stuff necessary for a discussion?Babatunde wrote: I was going to write a more lucid response to your bilous vitriol but then realised you had to go pick your IQ out of the dustbin first.
I've watched more Arsenal matches than you've sucked dangly balls
you gorbellied toss-pot.
Go watch some football, read a book, get an education. You're retarded.
i mean, i know the guy he's replying to started some of it, but i can't see a single post by babatunde where he's not trying to catch the attention of everyone, and does so by being as controversial as possible, and calling people whatever he wants in the way.
wasn't that the definition of WUM for starters?

That's why it was so funny to see people calling for others to be banned whilst this is allowed to continue.brazilianGOONER wrote:is this sort of stuff necessary for a discussion?Babatunde wrote: I was going to write a more lucid response to your bilous vitriol but then realised you had to go pick your IQ out of the dustbin first.

Have to say baba that the abuse levels is ridiculous - most on here are willing to debate rationally (yes even the akb) so treat others with the respect that you would expect to get yourself even if they are on occasions talking shite

Please read the original post from this guy.
Where, totally without foundation, he begins abusive language. My answer is a response to that abusive language. If people don't wanna take abuse, they shouldn't be dishing it out. Because I will never start it, but am always willing to finish it...
I think BrazilGoon is upset because his loverboy Arteta has been subjected to some of my barbs...

He'd rather take the advice of a suicide bomber than me apparently, and I've had no altercations with him really... it's just so angry and spiteful
It's abuse for the sake of it, and aimed at almost everyone - especially if you're from Brazil or pro-Wenger in any way. It's WUMing at it's very worst...
It's a shame, as he's intelligent and interesting when he's calm and not attacking people.
