As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
What a dickhead. The good thing from his point of view is that he can do that on Thursday nights next season and nobody will be watching or even giving a fuck.

For the second one he practically pushes avb aside so that he can launch himself upwards

Think he was hoping to get a pen for his efforts, made more of an effort than Bale to stay on his feet mind.
I can't imagine how a team in the Premier League can condone that level of behavior?
I could understand that reaction (to a point) if it was the goal to secure a cup/title or avoid relegation but he reacts like that all the damn time. Like yesterday where he was crawling on his knees almost when Spurs hit the post - WHAT THE FUCK?
Do you think Wenger, Fergie or even Mourinho accepting their assistant managers behave in that way?
Wenger would stop him from all assistant manager duties as he wouldn't want the spot light taken off of him. Fergie would sack his assistant manager & Mourihno would humiliate the dude in post match interviews.
Maybe I'm a bit old school but none of a club's coaching or managerial staff should act like complete clowns under any circumstances, even in a cup final or a title winning game. I believe they should set a mature, authoritative example to their players who they hold a higher position over. Congratulate your team after the game, give the fans a clap and a wave at full time buts that's as far as it should go. The managerial staff are the highest footballing representitives of their club and should do this with dignity and respect to the opposition at all times. Unfortunately these attributes are often forgotten by senior football men.
Leave the frivolity to the players, handshakes and pats on the back should suffice.

Old enough to remember GG being very controlled and dignified at Anfield 89, trying to calm down bould/quinn on the touchline at the final whistle - now that is fucking class.
