First of all, to all of my English fellow Blues out there:

Like this guy or not, this is what draws so many of us American to your game and - specifically - this league. LOVE THE PASSION! In America, the only fans I see that are as passionate as you English footie fans are die-hard NHL hockey fans. That is the only place where that tribal, blood boiling, shout yourself hoarse passion bubbles up and takes over. I am a Huge sports fan, mind you. Watch it all the time, all kinds of sports.

Does the guy in this vid have a right to be pissed off with it? I think so. That club has the highest season ticket card in the league, yes? They talked after the league ended last spring of a "war chest" and how they were gonna strengthen the side. They've done FUCK ALL. Now, I can't stand Arsenal anyway so it's not like this will keep me up tonight, but I do feel for the fans who pay their quid to go and sing the side on to glory only to see the kind of dire performance we witnessed today. Yeah, they were hard done by the officiating, but they didn't really do themselves any favors with their tactics or level of play.

I have been shocked at the business that they have done (and not done) in the past few years. They seem content to finish just well enough to stay in Europe whilst bolstering their reputation as a feeder club for others. Shame on them. Good on this fan to vent his frustration and speak his mind. While I agree with the "what do they know about struggles" comment I've read over and over on here since this morning's debacle, I really do think it must be a real woman for their fans who expect so much more from them.

Then the fans are idiots. The club has made it very clear they only care about making profit by selling their best players and not replacing them and charging ridiculous ticket prices and the fans just keep going to matches and putting money into the pockets of those on the board. If they really wanted to make a statement they'd boycott the matches and hit them in the pocket but instead they think paying to go to the match and booing at full time will make a difference.

tl;dr: Oxlade-Chamberlain out for about 3 months, cruciate.

I actually feel a bit bad for that fella.

That said most are arrogant pricks with a misplaced sense of entitlement and i enjoyed seeing that scoreline.

And that's exactly why I don't feel sorry for this fucker.

Fuck him and fuck every other hypocritical, gloating, smug, arrogant gooner from years back, it's not as though they are threatened with relegation, let alone Division THREE.

Fuck Wenger, Fuck Arsenal and Fuck every Arsenal fan that ever criticised us, you reap what you sow you deluded myopic wankers.....

So all of a sudden you are threatened with losing your 4th place trophy and you whinge more?

GET TO FUCK.

Thanks for that Bilbo, that's what I was trying to say. You obviously have the gift of the gab. ;-)

Yes they do not know real frustration and despair but it is all relative.
Just 8 years ago they were cemented in the top 3 and used to winning stuff, nobody foresaw the abrupt and steep fall they have had.
I bet that bloke was set to see the rest of his days mixing it at the very top or at least a hell of a lot longer than they did.

Another pearl of wisdom from the Arsene "The right way" Wenger after today's defeat :D...


“You got what you wanted, you should be happy,” Wenger said to reporters in his post-match press conference. “Before the start the season that was all you write in the papers so what do you expect?”

You big fucking pansy. Feed off his pain, embrace his bitterness and let it warm and amuse you.

No pity, not for those entitled twats.

He's probably with this lot if you look hard enough
