  1. robbed (as in Arsenal at Emirates in Champs league first leg quarter final)
  2. As always my view is if they want to go, let them. No one player is bigger than the club. We've let Pires, Viera, Henry, Edu, Campbell, Anelka, Overmars, Von Bronkhurst, Reyes go when they asked to go, we've lost The Ice Man because of retirement, and survived. Hleb is a good player but he's been a little too lightweight for me in recent weeks. If a player doesn't have his heart at the club, let him go. The Arsenal are bigger than any player, and that's how it should be with every club. We've done fairly well without Henry who was supposed to be irreplacable, but who has struggled at Barca. The one constant in all of this is The Arsenal.
  3. Hi Jah, I started last week but the wonderful IT department have only just sorted out my user ID and password. Who says IT people are are overpaid and underworked???? I guess it's time to reflect on a season which at times was full of excellent highs, and full of "might have beens". If I'd have been told at the start of the season that we would finish 3rd, with all of the injuries we've had, and that we'd play some of the best football ever witnessed in this country WITHOUT Henry, I would have laughed at you. So overall, as Le Boss loves to say, I think we've had a bloody good season. With a little more luck and few less injuries, who knows what might've been. Still, I'm happy with what we've done in 2007/08 season. As always my heart has suffered but that's all part of being a gooner. I'll be going to the Reading game on Saturday but it feels like I'm just going through the motions.The joys of following a premiership club eh???

The above is 4 years old, and has been used, in various incarnations to apply to Lokomotiv Fulham, Man Ure, Scousers, Spurs
  5. Feck, and I thought I was an angry chappy. Alternatively, you could drop your pants and do a dump outside the offenders front door, of course this takes an awful lot of courage.
  6. The 12th man that Liverpool refer to was obviously present at the first leg of the Champs League quarter final and during the league game last week, he's called the referee. Two stone clad penalties not given to us, no wonder Le boss gets the hump. Oh well, come on Barca!!!!! Sorry, can't have Chavski, Man Ure, or pool winning the Champs League. I bet that will go down well with Forumites. If I sound bitter it's beacuse I f**king am. Now I know how Mourhino felt!!
  7. Fair enough, just thought I'd ask.
  8. For the love of you - Isley Brothers
  9. Golden Glory bitter by the Badger Brewery, gorgeous chilled.

Are you allowed to say Homos these days, I thought that was not considered PC. Aren't we supposed to say gay??
  11. Would love to come along this evening but I'm leaving my current job and having a beer, well several beers, in a pub in Tooley Street called the Shipwrights Arms, so I fear I will be in no fit state to go anywhere after coming out of there.
  12. Time - edwin Starr
  13. It's out of the question - Isley Brothers
  14. Pussy Price _ Laurel Aitken

  16. Politics and religion, two things you shouldn't talk about at parties or in social gatherings, nor should the twain meet in the political arena, but regretably they do in various guises across the globe.
  17. Kanu, Lauren, Diara, Campbell, and Adams, ex-gooners one and all, how can Pompey fail???
  18. I have a machine which makes latte or espresso, I have a cafetiere (is that how you spell it?), I have one of those coffee pots which comes in two sections which come apart so you can put the coffee in one half, water in the other and you heat up the water on the gas, or electric grill, but my favourite coffee at the moment is from those filters which you put on top of a cup or mug, pour hot water into and add your cream or milk. Perfect. Minimal fuss and effort plus good coffee.
  19. Play up Pompey, Pompey play up!!!!!!
  20. No, Avram is definitely Toad of Toad Hall
  21. Why you little..... - Homer Simpson
  22. Yes, Saddam should have been given a stiff reprimand and told to run along and not do it again.
  23. The poor man was simply misguided.
