Morning all,
Just in case anyone missed the news yesterday, Fergie is retiring at the end of the season. Ding Dong eh!!
More important is all things Arsenal.
Two awards have been announced – the first goes to Aaron Ramsey, he’s been voted EA Sports Player of the Month for April. I’m not surprised either, since he’s been playing in his ‘proper’ position, he’s really improved.
He won with 32.5 per cent of all all votes submitted on the official club poll.
Second up is Lukas Podolski – his strike against Norwich City has won the Goal of the Month award for April.
Good stuff eh…..
Come on, cut me some slack, what else is there to write about? I’m trying – honest!! (Some would say, very!)
Oh, I know, Lukasz Fabianski.
He’s ‘Up for it’….
Our more mature Polish goalkeeper believes he is a much better player now than he’s ever been.
Agree? I thought you would…..
It was a bit of a shock to see him in goal to face Bayern Munich back in March, but he was very good and played a huge part in our 2-0 victory. Having seen Bayern batter the likes of Barcelona since that night, it shows just how good he was. So was of course, the rest of the team.
I’m feeling really positive about it the battle to be No 1. I feel that I’m a better keeper than I was, I feel really confident in myself.
That confident display in Germany was followed by five more solid displays between the posts. We won all of them but then a rib injury struck him and back came the younger Pole. To be fair, he’s done ok, a couple of dodgy moments but our good run has continued.
Despite Fabianski being free to leave this summer, it sounds to me like he might be staying.
I’m hoping that it’s going to go my way – I’m feeling really positive about it the battle to be No 1. I feel that I’m a better keeper than I was, I feel really confident in myself.
I put in a lot of work to be fit again, to be stronger. I’m not worried about anything and I think I’ve made a statement that I’m up for it.
I had a chance to play my first game against Bayern Munich on the big stage and as a team we did really well. I helped the team as well, I’m really happy that I was back, fit again and that I had a chance to show myself on the big stage.
It’s all about confidence. I think it gave me a boost but I was really prepared for that. I didn’t see any difference in my confidence before the game and after the game and before the next game. I think it was on the same level.
It’s just getting that feeling of playing good again, getting the result and that always gives you a positive feeling about yourself for the next game. It gave me a boost but I was confident even before the game.
When Tomas Rosicky got back into the side last January (I think), he played really well and many fans, I know I did, thought he was playing for a new contract.
Weeks later, we all found he’d already singed one…..
Has Arsene gone and done it again with Fabianski, has he signed a contract extension already?
The way he is talking, his fight for the number one spot isn’t about our last two fixtures is it?
However, German keeper Sven Ulreich is the latest linked to us in newspapers this morning…
Finally, where we finish in the league is now up to us again. With Chelsea and Tottenham sharing the points last night, we are now one point ahead of our neighbours and two behind Chelsea.
Win our final two games and we’ll get 4th place, maybe even 3rd…..
That’s it from me for another day…..
Have a good one all…..
if Fabianski HAS signed a new contract he could then be used as a player + cash for any new keeper wenger would like. I could certainly see him being used if it came to begovic or ulreich.
I certainly hope Fabianski stays.
Rico, you ARE surprised Aaron is playing well…tell the truth 🙂
Morning all.
Wardy, he is at least as good as those two, imo.
I wouldn’t be suprised to see sagna fabianski rosicky and frimpong all sign new contracts meaning that our search for gk, rb, dm and cam are over leaving wenger to focus on cb, cf and may be the flanks although I could also see gervinho signing a new contract with ryo and campbell coming into the squad to add depth. It would certainly mean that we could then spend a lot more money on the 2 positions that most need strengthening allowing us to go for top qualityl like falcao cavani or lewandowski and the best cb available.
Goody for trying Rico.
A new keeper? Ahh yes. Fabianski is to sign a new contract. that would make him like a new signing. Mates……….a new keeper will only come if and only if Fabianski leaves. So dont hold your breath. No Cesar, Ulreich, Casillas or Valdes.
If TR07 remains, then that puts paid to getting a new midfielder.
we can only wait and see
Sagna staying would leave me dissapointed.
sagna was propably the best r.b in the prem a few years ago ,shame that injuries and age is catching up on him .Time to move him on and bring in Jenks,he wont hang around forever if Wenger dont play him.
Hasn’t Rosicky signed one already?
oui Scott. But I think that that was last season. It ends this summer I think.
I stand to be corrected though
Very true rico, Arsenal is more important 🙂
From the online Gooner
What is it about the 8th May? Not only did we beat Liverpool 2-1 in 1971 to win the FA Cup but Sylvan Wiltord scored at Old Trafford in 2002 to win the league for us as well.
I suspect this year’s vintage will be far more remembered in Manchester (and Torquay and Carlisle) than it will in N5. This is not the place to talk about the retirement of a manager who has been arguably our biggest foe over the last 26 years. (At least until we stopped winning things).
No, what 8th May 2013 may be remembered for by Arsenal fans the world over (if it is remembered at all) is the fact that we now know the race to finish in the coveted top four is in our hands again.
As a lifelong Gooner I could never bring myself to cheer for that lot from N17, and being pleased when Chelsea score is not very pleasant. At least the pair’s fabled “game in hand” is no more.
So put away those calculators and newspaper fixture lists, stop freezing the shot of the league table on Sky Sports News, desist from listening to crap pundits and their biased speculation and rejoice: If we beat Wigan Athletic at Ashburton Grove and Newcastle United at St James’s Park (I’m not a big fan of stadium branding as you may be able to tell) then we will finish in the top four.
It sounds so simple and painless.
If only it were.
The last time I uttered “it’s only Wigan” was on 24 January 2006. Never again. We all know what happened that night. I learnt a very bitter lesson that evening – you just never know with bloody Wigan.
That night saw us denied a day out at Cardiff by the Latics’ sheer doggedness and compounded by some fans ole’ing late on when the opposition only needed a goal to get to the League Cup Final. If it wasn’t Schadenfreude it was Scharner. Or was it Roberts? It was certainly Wigan putting a spanner in the works. A common theme began to emerge that night.
Fast forward four months to Wigan at home in May 2006. This time we couldn’t just shrug off a defeat. It was the last ever game at Highbury and we needed 3 points to have even a chance of CL qualification.
The Spuds under Jol were on their way to world domination (again) and were in the driving seat to qualify. We had drawn a fraught derby a couple of weeks earlier thanks to a late Henry goal and in between had qualified for the Champions League Final. (How strange and unfamiliar those last six words sound now when I write them down). Defeat was not an option nor was a draw.
Who remembers Paul Scharner equalising and David Thompson netting to give them the lead at a horrified Highbury? Thank God we came back through an inspired Henry who claimed a hat-trick on that never to be forgotten afternoon.
I remember in December 2006 going up to Wigan just before Xmas and seeing them battle at a half deserted and freezing JJB before one of our subsequent traitors whose name I can’t even bear to write scored a goal for us in the 88th minute.
Incidentally the pies were great, even if when I asked the woman serving them in that curious bar/wedding reception area before you enter the ground for some gravy on them she replied disgusted: “we don’t do grey-veeee round ‘ere – we do mushy peaaaass”, as if that were somehow far more sophisticated. Maybe it was, maybe it was just me. Maybe mushy peas are Wigan’s secret weapon.
Even when we win against Wigan at home they make it difficult. In November 2008 I heard what were probably the loudest boos directed at an Arsenal player since under the days of Terry Neill.
Poor Eboue. It wasn’t his fault he was such a cult.
Even if the abuse also made a lot of people back off from doing it again, certainly at such vociferous levels.
Who can forget April 2010, and our shocking collapse in the North West? 2-0 up with ten minutes to go we somehow contrived to lose 3-2 through Watson, Bramble and N’Zogbia. Those last ten minutes epitomised everything that has gone wrong since 2004. Characterless, leaderless and spineless. I don’t mind losing to Wigan, but not like we did that day. It was unacceptable and I for one will never speak of it again.
Wigan even managed to ruin my daughter’s sixth birthday on 29 December 2010. Or I should say my day on my daughter’s sixth birthday. Two one up through Arshavin and Bendnter – whatever happened to them – they equalised after N’Zogbia got sent off, through a ridiculous Squillaci own goal. (By the way are we still actually paying these three? Someone please tell me we aren’t?)
I was working for a charity in Uganda when we lost to Wigan 2-1 at home in April 2012. Can I just offer my apologies to the numerous Arsenal supporting locals that inhabited “Bubbles” Bar in downtown Kampala for my language that night after a crate load of Nile Specials. Bloody Wigan wasn’t the half of it.
As I watched on a grainy screen surrounded by hundreds of boisterous Ugandan Arsenal fans I also had a good friend back in London who was recovering from serious operation. He had missed our five previous victories on the trot and was looking forward to returning to watch his beloved Reds and of course seeing Wigan become victim number six. He may not have uttered the immortal words “it’s only Wigan” but I think we all knew. Arsenal didn’t help his recuperation that night, nor did it help the mood of the Bubbles crowd and myself 5,000 miles away.
Di Santo and Gomez had other ideas for us all, putting the Latics two nil up after eight minutes. We may have been cursing Al Habsi’s timewasting (even in Africa) but the fact was Wigan played well that evening, certainly in the first half, as we endured another painful moment at their hands.
I wish Wigan all the best in Saturday’s Cup Final. I also hope they spend the resulting 48 hours either soaked in champagne celebrating or drowning their sorrows in Boddington’s so they aren’t in a fit state to play us. But you and I know the impressive Martinez is far too canny for that to happen.
So maybe we shouldn’t put those calculators away just yet.
You just never know with bloody Wigan.
Devil i thought it was in January.
Gee, time flies!!
Hi Lee,
I agree we need to tread carefully, but i still think Spuds will drop points.
Let’s not rely on it though.
Our fate lies in our own hands.
I still think Fabianski won’t sign a new contract because he needs to be a no1 to be in the running for Poland. With the constant talk of a new keeper that would be alot of competition.
We need the confidence to dominate these bottom of the league teams but not over confidence that it’ll be easy because they are bottom of the league teams.
I think Stoke R.F.C take points off the spuds….
I think Villa will take points of the Chavs as well…!
Lets hope we keep our focus and show the effort commitment and attitude of the last few months.
Morning All
Morning all,
Thanks bc 10.09, the thought of that has really got my juices flowing again ! I was beginning to think there was no hope left.
Its back in our own hands again, only we can fcuk it up now.
Wing and a prayer, you better believe it.
Come on guys, Chelsea will beat Villa and Spuds will want to come out of the disappointment with Chelsea draw by playing their heart out against Stoke; they will beat Stoke City but Sunderland might surprise them.
We need to play Wigan and Newcastle like we played Man Utd and blow them off the face of the pitch.
On a good day they are no match for Wenger’s team but you can only hope the players know this and give their all.
How I wish Sagya didn’t bring down RVP because we were inline to win that game.
Hello all….
We signed anyone?
Fergie!!
ahhhhh yes Rico. we have signed Remy!!!!
Spurs players looked gutted after the game last night ,they knew they had to beat Chelski to Gain Cl place .Stoke will kick the shit out of Spurs on Sunday ,and will get a least a point. A win against Wigan will make the Newcastle gain a dead rubber .keep the faith.
acc to reports in the blazing ball of fire around which our universe revolves we have signed Fergie who will be AW’s assistant instead of Bould.
What will it say to players like kosser and TV (i know people with short memory don’t rate him now) if sagna is sold at 30 y.o…. loyalty works both ways too. For the likes of CJ25, Ramsey and JW10 to acheive their full potential they need the old heads around… the reason why old fergie kept Giggs and Scholes and even Neville until he decided to leave himself.
I always found it hypocritical by some sections of fans when those same people moan about lack of loyalty in football.
Afternoon btw…
Pulis would love to put spuds through the CL spot than keep his own team up in the EPL to spite AW and Arsenal… 😉
Jay………do you honestly think Pulis will allow us in the champions lge????? he will do his utmost everything to make sure the spuds will pip us.
so any talk of SRFC kicking the shit out of the chocking cocks is nonsensical. The spuds will simply win.
you are right Ginge. Loyalty goes both ways.
but I do want a new right back competing with Jenks.
its not that we have no loyalty to BS. Its that he can no longer be an asset. he is fast becoming a liability. and we need top players to compete.
Ginge, Sagna did make comments suggesting he wanted out though.
I just cant see the Stoke players not playing their normal game just to cods us up.Pulis has been under pressure from the fans this season,he will want to finish on a high .Beating Bale UTD might save his face
Bloomin hope not Devil, unless he’s ‘as well as Falcao’ 😉
I can’t see Pulis being anything other than Pulis…
Got to go again folks, busy old day today 🙁
Nah. Spuds will win both their games = 6 pts
Chavs will win one but, against Everton, who will want to win for Moyse, a draw is quite likely.
And us, The Arsenal, we will beat Wigan- just, but Newcastle, with Colloccini back are a slightly different team than the one that lost 6-0 at home a week or so ago. Do we earn 6pts or 4? On paper the games should be the easiest 6points of the season but…….we are talking about the Arsenal here!
God I hope we win both then the 4th place trophy is assured……I wonder if the team will parade it on an open top bus during the week commencing 20th May? I’ll go and stand in the Holloway Road if they do!
I could imagine arsenal players watching the game together yesterday and encouraging Chelsea to score one more goal.
But the draw would have made them get drunk as well.
None of them is talking on the web right now , this only points to the fact that Wenger has sent a warning to everybody that they should all stay focused . I believe the training today was a proper drilling , I wouldn’t be surprised if they trained twice today. 🙂
Walcot will score again and only hope Podolski rises up to the ocassion
Are we forgetting the fact that the Spuds are perennial losers??
They find a way to fail.
Only wish more supporters would take the 4th place trophy more seriously Wavy although I wouldn’t book a day off work just yet mate.
My personal view as always…I think sagna is still much better than CJ25… and even those few who thought Debuchy was a better option have realised that he is no better.
In defensive position i think experience counts the most… yes sagna may not be Rangel Angel or lahm going forward ie crossing but defensively i think a lot of fans are too quick to point out his errors when in most games he makes at least one crucial interception… even the Man u game he made 2 such interceptions before he lost his head… sometimes it is due to adrenalin… (I once elbowed a friend 2 times in the nose in a regimental boxing fight but because of the heat of things I did not even realise what I had done until blood started to pour out of his face…)
On Sagna’s comment I think he was stupid to say what he did to Canal+ but it is exactly what most people say on here daily.
So my point is if Kosser or the BFG at 27 and approaching their prime as defenders observe that arsenal, 9 out of 10 times sell their players approaching 30 y.o; what should stop them from moving on if someone else offers them a 5 year contract?
Has that not been the case with us the last 7 years replacing seasoned veterans with upcoming players who will take another 2 years to acheive a competitive standard? One reason why we are always in transition as a team.
And as far as i am aware i do not see a lot of RB still better than Sagna… and replace Sagna with Lowton is absurbed to say the least… imho
Dev… how was Cavani’s performance last night? From the little I saw he was doing his best Diego Forlan impression…
Did anyone see Luca Toni missing a sitter?
Ginge, my concerns on Sagna are that his legs may be gone.
He fades towards the end of games, and that is where the errors kick in because he struggles to get back into position.
That can also be blamed on Theo who offers little support, though.
😀 Scott.
i think most top teams especially in germany have gone away from the Cafu, roberto carlos, Alves style of fullbacks… AW I notice is beginning to rein the fullbacks in in second half of games when we are ahead too…
SP1 rightly pointed out that it is very impractical to expect fullbacks to defend and attack whilst the wingers amongst the front 3 do jack all… 😉
I like Theo in big games… he turns up no matter how he performs the rest of the match… 😉
Ginge, that is why i added he last sentence….Theo makes it hard.
Jenks has really concentrated more on the defensive aspect of his game this season, and that is what has made him a much better player.
How good will he be in 3-4 seasons time?
He will be first player picked for England!!
I agree Scott… but will we be singing CJ25’s name if Ramsey and Gerv had not been used on the rhs in most games CJ25 played in instead of Theo early in the season…
People have forgotten about the infamous 8-2 afternoon at Old Toilet… where Jenks was made to look like the conference player he was before he joined us because someone did not want to defend…
No matter what happens this summer and where we finish in the league… IG is loving forward to setting a new record i.e the first EPL team to play in Vietnam… wow!
Hey! I’m looking forward to miss (the goal) sigh gone! ! ! It will be a real hot spot, high light in my summer of things to do, grabbing a bit of shade beneath the Nap palm! Not to mention playing on the old video game machines, my all time favourite was catching the monkey, was it called viet kong?
I suppose, in a way it is a bit of a coup, to play in what was a war torn communist state 40years ago, to what it is now, a thriving ‘westernised’ socialist community, just getting along with its more bourgeois brothers. I hope the Arsenal make packet.
Ha ha ha wavy… vietcong… where is the real rambo when he is needed.
I hope IG is aware Aaron Rambo is a wanted man in Vietnam and cambodia after first blood:part2
Arsenal super heroes apart from Rambo, already mentioned, I can only come up with one other……..Walcot and Grommit! In the ‘Wrong Trousers’
Any other offers? It is a rather quiet news day now all the fuss aboout old rednose has subsided, we need to talk some serious drivel.
So, ARSENAL SUPER HEROES anybody?
BFG-Per Panzer tank with the turning circle of Boris Johnson’s s bendy buses…
Afternoon all.
Skybet have got us at 9/1 to sign Sam Byram. We were nowhere in the mix a couple of months ago. We weren’t even given odds.
For anyone who doesn’t know – He’s a right-back with Leeds Utd.
Hi all.
I’ll go for Super Mac.
Finally, chores done…
Hi SYG… you are back… how was your break?
Have you had words with Prescott for dissing Leeds fans? 🙂
Great player.
£333K
29 goals in his first season
That was a marquee signing at the time
It was nice Ginge. Very hot for April.
After 7 years we got the car re-registered on Cypriot plates – we have to now by law – and we are a gnats whisker away from signing for a new place over there …
….We’re back out for 16 days on the 29th May, providing I can meet deadlines etc.
Seaman Stains – “Capt. Pugwash”. A sleeping part, he never appeared/existed but he bacame a legend of the programme, he got everywhere! Just like big Dave he covered everything! Whata hero.
So Moyes is going to Manure….
Is he any good SYG?
Moyes, moe or less confirmed as manure manager. Don’t know what the general feeling is but,I think he is a fergie clone, in every respect. Glasgow, rough end, footballing career dirty bastard of now great quality and no clubs of any note that ever wanted him, humourless, dour and just a little bit scary. He may become asylum fodder, if there are any left open by 2015!
I wouldn’t want him managing the Arsenal, not my cup of tea at all, old boy. His sort round here, we don’t want!
Moyes will bin Rooney….buy Fellaini and Baines?!?
I reckon so too…
Sam Byram
19 years old. Future England right back – born in Thurrock
On 26 April 2013, Byram won the Yorkshire Evening Post Player of The Season award with 99% of the vote.
Honours
Mitre Leeds United Goal of the Year 2012 – versus Oxford United
Football League Young Player of the Month – March 2013
Yorkshire Evening Post Player of The Year – 2012/13
Leeds United Supporters Club Player of the Year – 2012/2013
Leeds United Players’ Player of the Year – 2012/2013
Leeds United Young Player of the Year – 2012/2013
Leeds United Fans Player of the Year – 2012/2013
Just one further observation.
The manure entrapment of Moyes was a done deal just before he declared, round Jan time that, “we’ll see where we are at the end of the season” when asked about signing a new contract at Everton. So it has been long in the pipeline. You could say manure tapped him up! Well nothing new there then, when did they ‘sign’ the grey badger xmas 2011?
And I wonder what he thinks about ageing strikers, especially those over 30? ! !
Essex boy, then SYG?
Here’s the list for May 9
9 May 1891: Royal Arsenal FC vote to become a professional side, making them the first professional team in the south of England.
9 May 1891: Dr James Paterson born
9 May 1922: Andrew Kennedy joins Arsenal from Crystal Palace
9 May 1931: Dan Lewis transferred to Gillingham
9 May 1935: Reg Lewis joins from Margate
9 May 1936: Bernard Joy is last amateur player to play for England in full international
9 May 1954: Derek Tapscott plays first international for Wales
9 May 1965: Peter Storey first senior game
9 May 1973: League debut for David Price
9 May 1978: Last appearance for Alan Hudson
9 May 1978: Last appearance for John Matthews
9 May 1981: Last game for Frank Stapleton
9 May 1987: Last game for Viv Anderson
Sounds good SYG..
I am wondering whether the lawsuit between Wooney and Moyes is behind the purported transfer request of Wooney
Syg, I have read about us being linked to a Leeds right back before, I was telling Adam a while back but couldn’t recall his name…
Another Brit possibly set to join the camp then, good.
Lee – attached
https://twitter.com/natm_mag/status/332507260397953024/photo/1
We don’t generally do business with Leeds Utd, Rico …
We sell to them – I don’t think we buy much off them ….. John Hawley, Ray Hankin both played for them – but I’m not sure if we bought them off them ….
Wilf Copping was bought from and then sold back to Leeds before the war … from the next village to me
Where is Adam when you need him 😉
Always a first for everything Syg 😉
On paper he looks a good prospect, Rico … and Ken Bates WILL definitely want to sell … I don’t know if his signing will excite the masses though
This GIF shows why Moyes was earmarked… lol
http://balls.ie/football/david-moyes-handshake-gif/
More you look the more you find ….
http://www.sportskeeda.com/2013/05/06/rumoured-arsenal-manchester-city-eyeing-leeds-youngster-byram/
Depends who else comes in I think Syg.
If by chance AW signs 3 really good players and slips in a young right back who looks like he’s going to be a top player then no probs for me.
But that’s because Jenks is ready imho. I still believe Jenks will be moved central in a season or two’s time so all would work out pretty well.
We need a striker and there’s a proved PL one up for grabs.
Will AW make a move I wonder?
Ah Wilf Copping, he never shaved on match-days, as it made him look even more fearsome. An ex-miner, who revelled in the violence the Italian World Champions brought to Highbury in 1934, part of the England team that day that fielded 7 Arsenal players in the line-up. Had his nose broken by an Italian elbow,.but it just made him kick them harder. Makes Roy Keane look like a pansy…
I am sure it was Ak who first mentioned Sam Byram on here, last summer. He was one of 2/3 younger English players we were loosely linked too…
Hi Rico, tbh I cannot remember…
It was probably off of a piece that I cut & pasted, as I do. 😉
Adam used to wax on match days….
He’d never played before this season Rico….
He made his league debut v’s Wolves in August – I heard the commentary in the gym on 5Live.. since then he’s played almost every game ….
Adam is here. How may he be of waxed service?
Only a toad would wax on matchdays… 😀
Where’s Rocky these days?
Hell Ak and Adam..
In that case Syg, i am merely talking bollards 🙂
Toads don’t wax, they just need to behave 😉
Kev. If you saw my bikini line you would know why I wax. 🙂
Rico. You know, better than any here, that I am an impeccably behaved toad.
Bollox, does that mean they won’t be trying to tap Wenger up now !
Micko. Apparently we are tapping Rooney up.
We are offering him a huge new caravan near the training ground.
I’ll get back to you on that Adam…….
😆 Micko, I thought they might ….
I’d love to see Rooney lifting the PL trophy in Arsenal colours….
Tbh Adam, I have never seen any reason for anyone, to question your behaviour.
You have always behaved like a gentleman, you cad… 😛
Rico, I think that Lee would be in raptures if Gervinho lifted the EPL trophy in Arsenal colours…
When it comes to techy stuff, what is a ‘jelly bean’ guys??
I’d be in raptures if we sold him Ak 😉
Gervinho I mean, not Lee….
Adam, there’s a caravan site just down the road from us, full of knackers, that would be much handier for matchdays.
Any new sign today
Hope Gervinho is fit for next Tuesday.
Poor old Gerv, he does his best…
rico, dutch is the techy man, if you know what I mean jelly bean.
Rico. Jelly Bean is apparently a version of the Android operating system.
Ah yes Micko, of course 😉
Sam Byram has escaped my radar.
But I feel that that is the way to go. See Jenks and Ramsey and Theo and the Ox. All plucked from the lower divisions and all are still young. Maybe if AW went that way since 2005 we would all be singing a different song now.
Oh and bdw……….is he English or am I mistaken?
Good Evening Lady and Gentlemen
Evening Devil.
How are you Adam?
What do you know about Byram? AFC level or not?
Evening devil….
I have no clue Devil. Not a name that has crossed my path at all.
Nor mine, but I don’t live in Leeds 😉
off to grab a bite. back soon.
Hi Rico.
Nipping off for beans on toast 😉
Cold noodle salad with a Thai dressing for me tonight.
Enjoy Adam…
Mine’s done and dusted… 🙂
that was delicious. A simple vegetable and bean soup. but with a glass of red wine it goes down well.
Nice devil….
on Rooney’s twitter the line Manchester United player has disappeared from Shreks profile.
Blimey, those red chillis tonight were potent.
Breaking news……….AFC to sign Shrek for 25million and CR07 for 45 million.
AW….”our summer spending spree is over. We will only sign other players if they are better then the ones we already have.”
Nice Adam, nothing nicer than a hot chilli 🙂
devil – you are a hoot….
As a sign of goodwill gesture, BArcelona have announced that they will be releasing Valdez and Fabregas from their contracts so that they can sign for AFC. The barca board wish to thank both players for their services and wish them well in the hope that such a gesture will heal the burnt bridges between AFC and farca.
Devil. Did you have a glass of that red or a bottle?
Just one bottle Adam???
Trust me Adam………I had only one glass.
But then I did not say how big was the glass!!!! 😀
If AW signs those 4 players I can assure you that I would down not just one bottle of red vino a day but 100’s of them
Devil. I reckon you’re safe from that happening.
Off for the evening to watch a movie.
Night Rico and Devil. Have a nice evening.
Night Adam….
cu mate. have a good night.
I am off too Lady.
cu tomorrow in your next article
Well, I am off too then, been a long busy day…
Nighty Devil and anyone else reading….
It’s an Adam post tomorrow so spread the word 🙂
Night all…..
Oh, Moyes confirmed – 6 year deal…
Told ya Jose was the man 🙂
And when Aaron bangs in three v Wigan, none of you will be laughing at me 🙂 🙂
Morning all.
Scott how much you gonna put on Aaron banging in three v Wigan…?
How much are you going to lend me Wath 🙂
Speak to AK he’s the money man mate, he’s financed by Lee…..
I reckon Aaron might bang in three free kicks but thats about it 😉
I’m off for the night have a good day fella…!
Ramsey to score three against Wigan, Scott???
Have you been drinking that Hardy’s Merlot again?!!!
It would be a miracle if Aaron scored once! But three!!!
Right, I’m off to polish me Mango…
Night all… Oh and you too Mick.
Kev, i have two maaaad Gooner mates in London atm, and i mentioned i know the sole London Cabby who is a Gooner.
They would be a great fare for you.
Any chance you can fleece them mate??
Happy birthday Dennis!
So we are in for Micky Rooney?? Or is it George Clooney?
Dennis who?? 😉
‘David Moyes is said to be preparing to raid Everton and bring Marouane Fellaini and Leighton Baines to Manchester United, after be confirmed as their new manager’.
Daily Mail…
Saw it here first…. Morning Rico and all.
This is tragic, absolutely tragic….

Morning Lee and all…
We all feared Moyes would take those two with him, and Everton I’m sure will accept the money to give to the new manager.
I’d love it to be Wooney….
Morning all,
I think Moyes could do well at Man U.
They play the same style especially being thugs on the pitch. Moyes will get a better rub of the green with the ref’s which he didn’t get at all at Everton.
And as you mentioned above the players they need will come from Everton and Fergie strongly suggesting who he should buy.
Morning Rico and Lee.
A Clooney, Varney strike force would be formidable.
Moyes might come in for Gervinho….manure have lacked that comedy element since djemba djemba left!
Morning Bradster and Adam..
I think he will too, seems the Manure fans are so happy…
Time to switch I think….

Or Sky will cut their prices….
Morning All,
Do you reckon fergie thinks moyes is a good manager,
or a good old sweaty sock.
Both Fred..
Fingers crossed on Gerv, he needs the ‘hair drier’ for all sorts of reasons…
Lee, Sky are as bad as Arsenal when it comes to what they charge…
Morning fred, he certainly chose him…
Wonder who Arsene will choose 😉
Rico…..Young frog?
I suspect so, Remie Garde my money is on 😉
Rico, I ring them up every 6m or so and say I’m going to leave and 9/10 they cut the monthly bill….you have to endure the press 1 for blah etc though!
The 3 women in Ohio held captive have been interviewed live on CNN news. All 3 had the same question………………………….
“Have Arsenal won a trophy yet?”
So do I Lee – and sign off of Espn when are games are not being shown…
😆 That’s funny….
I can’t believe Jamie Carragher is doing some commentating from next season. That might make me switch.
That is just what went through my mind Adam, i won’t be able to understand him.
Also, Bt have signed up some good presenters, Claire Balding and Martina Navratilova, two who really do know their stuff….
Maybe they could wheel out Dalglish or Joey Deacon….then you really couldn’t understand a thing!
New Post is up now…
Hit the mute button I say…..
