The other thing with Oxlade-Chamberlain is he has a tendency of switching off in really crucial areas of the pitch and gifting chances/possession.

Shocking stagefright from Ox. His development at Arsenal has been quite disappointing.

What a man. Come on Giroud, prove me wrong. Do something useful in a big game.

Johnson looks bad, but from what I've read they're no closer to proving digits/blowie beyond all reasonable doubt. In the absence of any forensic evidence, witnesses, footage - it's her word vs his on those key issues. There's no way they can though, it'll always be word v word. That's been evident since the start Therefore I imagine the prosecution's only card is to try and impugn the credibility of his word by getting him to lie about intentions which his actions are clearly contrary to - but he isn't biting.

Probably yes.

Did SAFC give reasons for suspending/unsuspending him? Either he's "innocent until proven/pleading guilty" from day one, or you axe/suspend him permanently from day one unless and until his name is cleared. Looking very, very bad for an already bad-looking club.

Libel against the club about their knowledge.

The chants at the derby about this will be rancid.

FTM 9-1

"bit of a paedo club"

Would love a Scott Damn injury here. That'd be the magic of the Cup, right there.

Hatewatching Palace - enjoying watching Zaha hustling at RB

Rtg's thread about their derby victories being tarnished has thrown up some surprising views........... or maybe not.

What a bell.

Couldn't remember the context of "science against me" so I went back and dug it up. Vintage Pardew: :lol:

So tempted to make that someone's special text beneath their avatar - but too harsh What an epithet.

Wish he'd get injured for the Euros England aren't that lucky.

Clear as mud what he means, tbh. Driving over the limit - naaaah. Any alcohol in your system, maybe.

Fucking loved it that time Henry absolutely reamed the fuck out of him. It was like a dad having a kickabout with his four year old in the back garden

Pardew with Arsenal's squad would be a disaster. No chance he'd get second.

Aye hope the best 'footballing side' always wins, screw ever rooting for an underdog that finds a way to compete It's an opinion. I don't identify that strongly with "underdog stories". If the underdog is my team, fine, sure. Leicester aren't. I can objectively respect and admire what they have achieved but beyond that I don't care as such. If anything, I resent them, because I wanted that to be NUFC and it sticks in my throat. With emotion out the way, Arsenal to me are far more entertaining and pleasing on the eye. I liked Heynckes' direct Bayern more than Pep's possession-based Barca, but in this instance I find Arsenal are closer to achieving my optimum balance. As for "deserving", it isn't lost on me that most points = most deserving, but then you have Greece '04. Leicester aren't Greece, but they're not Arsenal either.

Fucking brilliant that. Leicester's story has been fantastic but when it comes down to it, they're nowhere near as good as Arsenal as a footballing side and they don't deserve to be Premiership champions.
