  1. Aye, call it a shower can. Im sure I'm not the only one. They're class.
  2. In Wetherspoons with a pint, awaiting Al Moody's arrival, was going to have a can in the shower but bottled it. By that I mean I skipped it altogether rather than that I had a bottle instead. Feel very confident today, almost as confident as last time.
  3. Agreed. Howay man. It seemed a very exciting signing at the time and having thousands of people turn up at the ground to greet such a signing used to be one of the things that enticed us to the world as a great club with fanatical support.

    Without Lukaku it's marginal IMO.
  5. Really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really unclear tbf.
  6. Petit wasn't really a defensive midfielder when playing alongside Vieira like, wouldn't say him and Silva are that comparable at all.
  7. GW9: Crystal Palace 0-4 Arsenal Aston Villa 1-2 Everton Liverpool 3-1 West Brom Man Utd 1-0 Stoke City Norwich 1-0 Cardiff City Southampton 1-1 Fulham Sunderland 1-1 Newcastle Chelsea 1-1 Man City Swansea 2-1 West Ham Tottenham 2-0 Hull City
  8. Not just that but losing a derby against your nearest and dearest when your cut adrift at the bottom would take some unbelievable mental strength to get over. Doubt they have that in them. They're only 6 or 7 points off safety and have just got a new manager in, their season starts now or even after our match. If Poyet gets them a few wins before Christmas then they've a decent chance. I do think they might well go down but it's not hopeless for them, regardless of their next result.
  9. The bit in bold seems to be a new thing which has come about because of the sky habit of finding morons who would actually say it, probably without actually thinking we were going to. I found that people were amazed that we would keep going back to watch us, regardless of the results and I've had fans of other clubs come to our games with me and become Newcastle fans. When I lived in the midlands I took a full car to every game and only me and my brother were originally Newcastle fans. The others became fans because they loved the day out and they loved the match because of the fans. I met some Barnsley fans on holiday and stopped with them when we played them away. They came in our end and have been Newcastle fans ever since and love the club, again because of the day out rather than the football. I think you're right with your first comment and that's why it's always the really fairweather football fans that come out with stuff like that, because they base any comments they make on cliches in the media and their interest in football doesn't run very deep. The people you meet that actually go to matches now and then have never said owt like that to me and never would, they respect what you say about Newcastle and take that on board more than what they read/hear on telly.
  10. I've worked away from home 3 times in 3 different places in 2 different countries and have never heard a bad comment about our fans other than the club don't deserve us and we're thick for following it. 100%. You hear the odd daft comment like "you think you should be winning the league" or whatever then you talk to them for 30 seconds and you realise that they don't even know anything about football. On the whole, it's admiration for us as a football club and they're always interested in what's happening.
  11. Well yes - it's retarded to generalise - once you get out the ground - and perhaps in a non football context you could enjoy discourse with 75% of them. You're deliberately trivialising my point, I'm saying there are more decent Arsenal fans than there are of most/all of the other top clubs. And that banner you posted means nothing. NUFC fans would have hounded Wenger out in the same circumstances, are we c***s? They've went through a period of failure relative to their 10 years previous and a lot of that seemed to be due to Wenger's stubbornness. Obviously a brilliant manager regardless. I'm really not - it's too late for that. To drag it back down to earth - the Arsenal fans I've come face to face with in football stadiums - I hate. That is all. Not sure what the bit in bold means, you're probably being a dick if usual form is anything to go by. I've lived in London for 5 years and have met countless Arsenal fans at various workplaces and they're generally knowledgeable, fairly down-to-earth football supporters compared to the Chelsea, Spurs and Man Utd fans you meet. And you hate them from your encounters with them face-to-face in football stadiums, OK. I couldn't possibly comment because I don't go to football stadiums or anything. Too late as in it's nearly 3 in the morning. I wasn't even taking the piss. But nice one - you've acted an utter a prick. Is that your...usual form? An utter prick. Settle down, precious.
  12. You've got a real victim complex in everything you post, it's a similar thing with Phil K. Not really. I'm just going by other fans I have met and what other fans write about us on forums etc. Like I said mostly I don't have any ill feelings towards other fans of other clubs, all the ones I have expressed are ones that the majority of people would agree with. I just generally don't give shit about what other fans think of us and what they think we think of them because what they think is different to what is true and they are never going to realise that. It's better to just not give a shit. Clearly. Again to go back to my experience of working in central London - I know Palace fans, I know Arsenal fans, I know Norwich fans, I know fans of whatever club you'd care to mention and I don't think it's all due to the fact that I get on well with people that they generally have nowt but good things to say about us as a fanbase and a football club. People like yourself get sucked in by the London media you're always slagging off, most real football people down here know what the craic is.

  16. I don't think all Arsenal fans are cunts at all, certainly sounder than Chelsea fans on the whole and probably sounder than Spurs ones too.
  17. I'd imagine there were a few other candidates during the period they won 11 titles between 1973 and 1990 as well.
  18. The greatest Liverpool player of all time according to Michael Owen just then. I think it's fair to say that he is. Is it? Of course it isn't, even I know that and I was born in 1984.
  19. No shit, prices are mostly unaffordable especially if you wishing to go in a group/as a family. What's unaffordable?

    Remy's a loan so not included. Steve Taylor cost nothing and they have Ryan Taylor as a free transfer (swap deal). Ah soz, I only glanced and presumed it was the one based on value rather than fees, obviously not.
