Don't know what you are so bitter about PD. RVP could have gone to City for more money. He has spent the bulk of his career at Arsenal. He is a footballer not a fan. Arsenal SOLD him. Arsenal are a selling club. Maybe that will change when they are financially secure.What would you have done differently to RVP?

Applying your average Gooner's 'logic'...RVP was a mercenary as soon as Arsenal bought him from Holland. Why did he leave Holland? To win medals, play at a higher level, and earn more money...2 out of 3 obviously wasn't good enough :)

I wouldn't have spouted all the shit about staying at one club, like Rooney did (funny how they've both ended up with the Mancs). We stuck by him while he languished on the treatment table for season after season. Still his glass ankles are due to shatter soon.

Funny how the likes of Henry, Bergkamp, Pires, Vieira all won titles having precious little before arriving at our club. But then he isn't in the same league as those guys.And the hugging of Arsene Wenger at the swamp was puke inducing.

Goal of the season. Well, Bale has scored plenty like the one he got at West Ham. In fact, I beleive he's scored more goals from outside the box than anyone else in Europe this season, so it's hard to pick one but I settle for the winning goal he got at the Boleyn Ground just to piss off all the Hammers on this thread. COYS!

Careful, you could have another Veron, Bebe, or Djemaba Djemba on your hands.

Well as and when ANY club can go through a season unbeaten or better or 49 games unbeaten run, I'm happy to keep bringing this up.

Interesting to note a club can go through a season unbeaten and be relegated. You're also missing out on the fact that L'arse weren't the first team to go through a season unbeaten in the league. Preston North End did it first and also won the cup in the same year. Spurs did the double before Arsenal and they won a European Competition before them too.


Did Arsenal do anything first? Bribing their way into the first division maybe?


ETA MU have already WON mores games this season than Arsenal did the season they didn't lose any.

Yeah, but the ball probably weighed 150 times that of the modern day ball, and the boots, they were like hunter wellies, so it has to be comparable?!

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."

      Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops

      You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
