Yeah. Like West Ham's perfectly good 90th minute winner being disallowed for a handball that no-one else other than the referee saw ...poor, old unlucky Wolves. West Ham aren't very good but Everton's 92nd minute equaliser after a frankly Bizzarre sending off and the above would have seen us with 4 more points. So the luck thing and the dodgy sdecisions thing actually break pretty even over time, so Arsenal fans moaning about Karmic influence ditto Man U, Liverpool and Chelsea saying their victimised is hysterical for us fans of the normal clubs. Some twa*t in the Observer the other day actually siad "I'm a long suffering Arsenal fan"!!!! Long suffering! Try being a fan of West Ham or Newcastle or the Blades or etc etc etc

I don't support arsenal so it does not bother ne. I'm supporting chelsea spurs and man city this year. None if whom look like winning me any money.

Quids. I'm not saying other teams aren't frequently hard done by. Or that arsenal don't sometimes get the rub of the green. I have also repeatedly said that ultimately today was arsenals fault


But


It wasn't one or even two decisions that were blatant today. Whatever the reasons, the tally by the end was bizarre and I stand by Chelsea and man utd not having to ever worry about the net total of decisions


Atticus, I'm not quite sure what your point is. A several yards offside goal last week has led to...?

MM, I know your fickle ways! I was just saying I think I'd be more gutted had that been the scenario.

I'll happily spell it out for you then.

Moyes' outburst earlier this week, might, just might have helped plant a negative seed into the heads of match officials where ref'ing Arsenal games is concerned. The revelation of your captain's tunnel outburst will have been noted by many referees, who are after all only human. Hope that's clear. Besides, surely Wolves have helped soften the blow.

Oh I don't know. There'll be no secretarian bile emanating from the stands though I should think Torres will come in for some stick and there is a bit of recent history between these two so plenty in this one to have more than a passing interest and I seriously want Liverpool to win. Come on the Pool.

I don't know what Smith does at half time, but he took a team on top of the game at HT to a team who seemed to be scared to be leading a game.

Had the opportunity to grab that game by the throat and hammer Celtic.

Naismith a silly boy for getting sent off.


Oh well, 7 games this season. Boring.

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
