Cure 197 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) Away from season ticket prices Arsenal Fan TV have released a charity single. Such talent. I don't condemn any form of charity work as it's going to a great cause. Regardless the song is awful. Edited April 1, 2017 by Cure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's your money but I imagine chairmen & boards the length of Britain say "well surely we can raise it Arsenal fans pay" you've contributed to the mess the game is in. I still can't get over your fans filming you winning the FA cup at Wembley on their iPads. It was very much the footballing equivalent of "let them eat cake" in my eyes I'll never have sympathy for your fan base after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very much the footballing equivalent of "let them eat cake" in my eyes I'll never have sympathy for your fan base after that. Trust me (aside from the multitude of football tourists and corporate attendees) a lot of our fans are plastic. The club may not be because luckily the club means a lot more than what it is today and its heritage and history is long and detailed. But our fans are a lot like the clubs this thread is about... But there is a part of me that feels sorry for those fans I'm talking about because they're only a product of what football's become and they don't know anything else (I won't apologise for being condescending to those fans in this case). I pay for that season ticket because before I left to live in Spain for 10 years I tried to pass my North Bank ticket onto someone else but after one season he didn't want to keep it going so I let it go. I let in go on the proviso that the club would give me a seat whenever I wanted one if I ever returned so as to be able to go consistently. They promised me this and my option on the North Bank was only the Platinum Club Level season ticket. You get a lot of perks (I don't need them) but apart from three constant fans I see different people every time we play at home around me. A lot of Oriental Asians with... You guessed it! iPads or just simply their smartphones recording the whole thing and supporting both sides whenever there's an attack. I kid you not that a good number of our modern fanbase do actually think that Arsene Wenger put Arsenal on the map. Many of them were probably infants, just born or didn't actually exist when we last won the league under him so I totally understand that they can't know any better and reading too much into the history of something can sometimes be a bore.

SirBalon 2,692 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 It reads like someone's mum wrote it out, only this is a football version of telling you what to do. In all honesty I totally understand that today's football fan needs to be guided through parts of life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue 971 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 That Robbie guy from Arsenal TV got attacked after the game, any clue what happened there? He really doesn't look at trouble at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue 971 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Just now, Cannabis said: I didn't but Robbie always comes across as a calm, mild-mannered bloke. It's no surprise that the likes of DT and TY are punched from time to time but not him. AFTV have been vocal supporters of the #WengerOut movement so someone has probably taken it up with him about that stance. Yeah for a gunner he is quite likeable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirBalon 2,692 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 It's terrible that the fans have resorted to all of this. There's no excuse for the scenes being seen almost every week now. This is only football for god sake! It does seem to be a new era in terms of social divisiveness in every walk of life these days. No tolerance and no understanding from all parts.
