Hell you should know I am old n grey. Getting the date wrong of a Chelsea fixture is the least of my problems. Spent 2 hours looking for my car keys at the weekend, only to find them on top of the Clover butter in the Fridge! Haha.Wife said I left them their on purpose so I dont have to unload the food shopping out of the car. I hope TONIGHTS fixture is as entertaining as the last league cup game between the two clubs I attended. 4-3. Time to leave. Pie n mash in the East end then onto the footie!3 points

They weren't 'bad' at the football side of things, as they had David Gill running it. I think the main issue is the amount of money they have taken out the club. For all the moaning Arsenal fans make about their owners taking money from the club, it doesn't even come close to comparing to the Glazers.2 points

Have there been any "magical money trees" headlines in response to the Tories planning to open more schools, hospitals and employ more police yet? Lefty media . The Guardian fair enough but the rest have been running a coordinated smear campaign against Corbyn for about 4 years.1 point

Lib Dems might get some attacks from the press - but they won't be fighting the media anywhere near as much as Labour. For all the complaints about "lefty journalists" the press loves to give Labour and Corbyn a hard time - Tories and even further to the right always get the kid gloves treatment. But Lib Dems are really just the watered down version of Tories - and let's not forget their stance is "WE WANT TO REMAIN (unless that means we make a coalition with Corbyn's labour!)." There's no doubt in my mind that if it was between forming a coalition that would result in Corbyn as PM but the UK remaining in the EU, or forming a coalition with the Tories and leaving with BoJo the Clown's deal... Swinson would be all aboard Brexit. Ideological backbone is NOT a Lib Dem strongsuit. Falling in line with Tories is though.1 point

Oh I'm not surprised; I just love to see that! Motorsports, science, space and technology are pretty much my main interests bar photography so it's always nice to see others who appreciate it as well. They probably banned Seb from entering the premises exactly because they're afraid of that1 point

Yea, but they're all tech nerds, so it's not surprising. Imagine Inspector Seb at NASA. He'd probably take apart a shuttle to see how it works.1 point

An interesting read about Keisuke Honda's involvement with the Cambodian football: https://www.theasiangame.net/honda-driving-cambodia-forward/ Good to see he and Dalmas are trying to build a lasting legacy and improve football in the country as well as give opportunities to talented kids. I was skeptical when he was appointed at first but I must say I love the approach now. Bar that loss to Iran, they've also looked much better lately than what I was used to seeing in the past.1 point

Its actually amazing that the Tories managed to stop themselves from laughing harder after being reminded of dozens of poor people burning to death.1 point

No excuse for Xhaka, strip him of his captain armband and bench him until January. Sell him in January and make him an example on how not to conduct yourself. I wouldn't accept this in any professional club, if Emery wants to be the manager with authority he will do it. Knowing how Arsenal dealt with their captains lately he will probably start tonight.1 point

At the moment we look best with Iwobi at #10. Sigurdsson is a bit off colour and if he's not contributing many goals it becomes harder to ignore how much he sometimes slows the play down when we go forward.1 point

Cannabis asked his account to be deleted for some reason so you can all just gang up on me now. @SirBalon is active again now but spends all of his time posting Remain propaganda in the Brexit thread if you need to find him.1 point

There's a toxic atmosphere around Arsenal right now - it's been building up over the years (I actually think the popularity of that ArsenalFanTV or whatever the fuck the name is on youtube has actually played a big part in swaying large parts of the fanbase online - and they go to matches getting peoples reactions, so I think they've fanned the flames a bit). But that toxicity will affect the players, so you can't just go around reacting to the boos like that when you're the captain and there are already a lot of people questioning whether or not you even belong at the club... let alone are captaining it. I always thought Xhaka was a weird choice for Emery to give the captaincy to - aside from quality on the pitch, which I'll just say is inconsistent at best, he's never really struck me as someone that'll stand up and be counted when Arsenal need it - he doesn't visably act like a leader like some of the players previously mentioned, where they're a general on the pitch. And with the inconsistency, he's not the sort of player you can count on to lead through inspiration. And on top of that, he's obviously not been popular with the matchgoing fans. It's tough for Xhaka, because going off to a chorus of boos like that cannot feel good. But right now he's the controversially appointed captain of a side that's got a manager under pressure and not really handling that pressure all that well, so he's got to expect some of that stick from the fans. It's part of his job, even if it's difficult. Emery's caught between a rock and a hard place, because I think under normal circumstances at any club you take the captaincy away from a player that reacts like that. Were the fans right to be booing? Probably not - but he's the captain he can't react and put up another point of contention between the fans and the players. The fans and players should be pulling together and any barriers to that are just going to keep this toxic atmosphere going. But now he has to walk a tightrope between pissing off the captain he's newly appointed and placating the fans. Personally, I'm not sure the toxicity of this season at Arsenal will subside until Emery's gone. The tactics on display for Arsenal in away matches this season don't demonstrate a man that's going to take Arsenal anywhere in the league - cup runs are his best chance of success. Boring football with low energy and low effort from the players are not going to keep any fans happy. But it'd be a good story for him (and Xhaka) if they can get some redemption for themselves this season. So I hope that happens. I don't think it will, but it'd be a nice story for the season.1 point

Also here’s an idea but maybe just delete the conversation about the holocaust denial so that this forum doesn’t give off the air of nazi lovers?1 point
