Media discussion - 2024/25

Can someone tell me if I'm going mad here. On the below BBC page there is a vote option on whether you are in favour of, or against the gooners dark arts (aka cheating) . I scrolled down and it voted automatically in favour for me! I tried it with another browser on my phone and it did it again! They can't really be stooping as low as rigging votes can they???


I found the same thing happened to me when I looked at the women’s transfer window page. It automatically voted the top score (5) for united and -1 for City. I thought I was going mad.
 
Just to hit that home, in that article, which paraphrases Ian Wright’s comments on Instagram about Haaland to mark him as a ‘Coward’, they literally list the things that “Haaland got up to”, without devoting a single word to what Arsenal players did throughout the entire match.

Here's what Haaland got up to...
  • As already mentioned, the Norwegian striker threw the ball at Gabriel following Stones' late equaliser
  • Haaland then barged straight into Thomas Partey following the restart
  • He then went head-to-head with Gabriel following the incident and appeared to ask Myles Lewis-Skelly: "Who the **** are you?"
  • And finally, Haaland exchanged words with both Mikel Arteta and Gabriel Jesus after the final whistle
  • Haaland said to Arteta: "Stay humble eh, stay humble eh." He then told Jesus to "get the **** away."

Arsenal’s cowardly, thuggish, anti-football behaviour is being completely swept under the rug, whilst we are being made out to be the villains.

It’s shocking but, sadly, not at all surprising.
It's been a long time since I've seen such a media pile on against a club. You'd think we were Don Revie's Leeds side the way rival fans and media scribblers have all blown their collective gaskets against the only team trying to play football. You have to laugh at threats they will be waiting for us at the Emirates, let's hope it's a bigger turn out than it was a couple of days after the league cup final.
