Arsenal banter 3

31 Oct 2025 16:07:36
Let's not think Burnley are a push over

Let's be professional and keep this mega steam roller moving forward.

31 Oct 2025 17:36:21
I'd take O 1 to the Arsenal and a less than spectacular performance if they were available right now mate 👍. Anything more would be a lovely bonus but ultimately 3pts is top priority 👌.

Unreal how quickly things have changed. The guy wins the league and everything from his tactics to press conferences are praised. Now they are having their first difficult period and he can't do anything right.

There were already massive holes in their squad last season. The key players were well past 30. They lost one of their most important creative players. They won the league which usually makes it difficult to motivate players the following year. They have had more injuries than last season (thought they were rather fortunate with them last year to be honest) .

It was always going to be difficult for Slot but i expected him to have a bit more credit in the bank.

That's football for you Ice mate.

Enjoy the wonderful highs and all the exaggerated plaudits that come your way, but take any of it or yourselves too seriously,
And equally accept the inevitable lows and the negative comments that come you way too, but don't take any of that or the self doubt too seriously either.


Evey club that's ever achieved great things has always experienced tough times eventually, Arsenal, Liverpool, United, City, Forest, Derby.

The only way to totally avoid the inevitable lows is to totally avoid the wonderful highs, as Rochdale, Hartlepool and Tottenham have always done.

Has SY been about? Hope he's ok. SY, blink twice if Mal has you locked up in a dungeon so you can't speak.

30 Oct 2025 15:36:47
He's in my loft making Nike trainers mate.

30 Oct 2025 16:08:34
We are winning of course he’s not posting! Only joshing Sy 😜 COYG.

31 Oct 2025 01:12:26
He'll be crantically assailing voodoo dolls of Arteta, you'd imagine.

01 Nov 2025 14:13:24
I’m good Sharpie - been distracted for a few weeks. Thank you for asking.

Great to see us doing well and I can tell you that’s one thing that got my old man smiling when I told him how well we were doing and that we will win the league. 👍.

30 Oct 2025 09:41:30
Good win. Last night

I thought the younsters did ok

Palace next round won't be easy.

30 Oct 2025 12:04:47
A very positive result Mark mate 👍

I know not everyone was happy with the line up before the game but it worked out brilliantly as we are through and our usual starters had a break. Palace will definitely be hoping Miklek takes the same approach against them in the quarter finals.

30 Oct 2025 15:39:56
Hello John and Mal, hope you are both good. I think it shows even with the injuries we have the depth to compete in all competitions. The blend of young, and experience players is at the right balance.
Take care both of you.

30 Oct 2025 16:09:42
Absolutely everything is looking rosey in our garden right now Bill mate 👍, long may it stay that way mate 👍 👍👍.

30 Oct 2025 17:40:15
Absolutely 👌👌👌.

30 Oct 2025 19:29:42
All good Billy mate hope all yours are doing giod.

30 Oct 2025 20:43:34
Yes we are Mal mate👍👍.

29 Oct 2025 18:58:15
Young 17 year old leading the line tonight, good luck to him👍👍.

{Ed025's Note - he cant be any worse than the lemon Bill.. :)

29 Oct 2025 19:01:47
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

29 Oct 2025 19:21:20
Ed025 I'm getting the feeling your a bit of a limey mate 😊.

{Ed025's Note - im a fruit and nut case G62.. :)

29 Oct 2025 05:48:05
I want to win the league cup

I want the boys to have a taste of silver ware

Let's put out a fairly strong side.

29 Oct 2025 08:57:12
Got an affinity for the ol league Cup.
Remember us losing to Leeds 1 nil in 1968 when I was 11 years of age. Was at Wembley last time we won it (Merse Wonder goal, Steve Morrows broken arm)
Love to win it.
Hope you are good Mal mate.

29 Oct 2025 09:44:03
All good Billy mate hope you're OK

Speak to you on live chat tonight if you're on.

29 Oct 2025 11:51:31
All good Mal mate👍👍.

29 Oct 2025 16:40:22
We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions. This season. We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions.

We have to put our best team forward tonight. Brighton have been a tricky team for us in the past and the score on the weekend makes me think they are holing out for tonight, Big Game

We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions. This season. We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions. We are going to be champions.

28 Oct 2025 15:57:52
Not directly Arsenal but could impact all clubs, just seen reports the City verdict is expected mid November.

{Ed025's Note - dont let it bother you Sally, it will more than likely be a slap on the wrists for them and a meaningless fine mate, the brown envelopes will have been distributed to the decision makers and they will be warned about their future conduct..

28 Oct 2025 21:34:25
That makes me deeply sad ed025 😔.

{Ed025's Note - do you really expect something different Sally?, i hate to sound so cynical mate but im afraid this is the sporting world these days, its corrupt..

28 Oct 2025 22:25:00
Let's wait and see what actually happens before reaching any conclusions. While I understand the cynicalism we have to wait for the actual outcome before we can make any fair judgement on the outcome.

{Ed025's Note - trust me G62..im a doctor.. :)

29 Oct 2025 00:27:23
Sadly, I think Ed025 is right. Can't see City receiving anything more than a fine and maybe a warning. Would be nice to see them docked points and be stripped of their titles but don't see that happening at all.

29 Oct 2025 01:16:17
Presumably they will have the opportunity to throw more money at lawyers disputing any punishment before its final?

29 Oct 2025 08:52:28
I'm pretty sure Everton and Forest will be watching the FA very closely, as will evey club and evey media outlet in the country.

Will the powers that be within the FA be more interested in saving City's title chances for this one season or their own skins? I can't see Everton, Forest, other clubs or the media letting anything but a points deduction go without calling for an enquiry and for head's to roll

Not long now before we will all get to find out.

29 Oct 2025 01:54:35
10 point deduction for Everton

But on a serious note, surely if they get away with a slap on the wrist you and Forest will have cause for grievance having been harshly punished for much less?

{Ed025's Note - that first bit would not surprise me Eden, whatever sentence they get as sure as eggs is eggs it will be appealed mate and it will drag on for another number of years..

29 Oct 2025 19:49:54
Probably the best way out of it for the FA and City, is for the FA to deduct City 114 point deduction guaranteeing their relegation pending an appeal. City launch their appeal which will heard in 2028 when 2028 arrives the FA unhold their decision at which point City take the case to the high court with the case set for 2035.

By the time 2035 gets here everyone will have reached the Brexit point where no one actually gives a sheep's passport what the outcome is because everyone is totally fed up with hearing about it allowing the high court give the City tea lady 20 minutes community service at which point she makes everyone a nice cuppa and its job done. ✔️.

{Ed's Note - Thestigno1 has posted a new article entitled, Can Hearts End The Old Firm Dominance?

27 Oct 2025 07:16:43
Another 3 points, well done lads. Just wish we could have a few more 3 or 4 nilers :)

Still in saying that if we win the next 20 games 1-0 no complaints.

Any news on the injuries?

27 Oct 2025 09:36:12
Absolutely mate, we are becoming spoilt aren't we😊

Not so long back we were saying how we missed the days of George's legendary Arsenal defence all those 1 0 to the Arsenal games. I genuinely think we could soon be enjoying the best of George and Arsenes Arsenal's . Lots of clean sheets along with great football and goals galore 👍.

27 Oct 2025 11:44:27
WHat a time to be a gunner. I still believe we hae not fully clicked. Once our players are fully embedded watch the goals keep coming. For now 3 goals let in over 9 games solid platform to build on. Just got to keep the noys injury free.

27 Oct 2025 12:51:47
I feel we haven't quite clicked yet, I'd love big Vic to get in on the action.

Crazy to think Marti O has to come back as well as Kai and Noni

Wednesday's line up will be interesting to see, I wonder if he does a full change in the starting line up.

{Ed025's Note - he should start by dropping the lemon Banbury.. :)

27 Oct 2025 14:24:39
Come on Ed his effort and determination can't be questioned goals will come. i'm glad we didn't sign Izak.

{Ed025's Note - effort and determination are great traits G4E but at the top level you need a bit more than that mate...quality, he done very well in the championship and in the farmers league in Portugal but the prem is a different kettle of fish, now of course i could be wrong...but that has not happened since 1978.. :)

27 Oct 2025 16:06:00
Dare I ask what happened in 1978.

We have waited a long time for a striker no point giving up on him before he truly ahs been tested. For me I would have liked to see Kai have started over Gyokres and we bought in Gyokres slowly into the team. I would certainly like to see them bring in another striker in January to support the team as we are weak up there.

{Ed025's Note - i must admit G4E that i have never been a big fan of Kai...but he is still streets ahead of Gyokeres imo, for me he was a bit of a panic buy but i suppose he is better than nothing...just, i got married in 1978 mate.. :)

29 Oct 2025 05:40:48
I'll tell you what happened in 1978

Ed25 bought around of southern comfort

Never to be done since.

{Ed025's Note - i have spent a lot of money in my time on booze, women and gambling Malaga...but i wasted the rest mate.. :)

27 Oct 2025 08:26:35
Bet this lad and his cohorts wish they could score a few set pieces now 🙄.

27 Oct 2025 14:00:43
Scoring them hasn't been the issue for us. Keeping them out has. If I'm not wrong, the winners in the Palace and United game came from set pieces, a long throw into the box and a corner. We did score a bunch against Frankfurt and our winner against you was a set piece too ;)

27 Oct 2025 16:48:26
As was salah’s pen v Burnley. There’s six of your 15 points from restarts as they insist calling them here in USA! don't think us Pool or C£ty are exciting when the low block is used. Yes we can tippy tap around waiting for opening but who wants that. Calling us thugs is moronic and lazy and a disservice. Being tall isn’t being a thug. Let’s make it a rule that you can’t park the bus now that’s anti football. You open up we will play and currently I fancy our chances. By the way our first corner wasn’t until the second half yesterday- hardly playing for it. The free kicks aren’t dives we get fouled we put the free kick into the box as every other team does it’s just we are better at it. On the pool page when they’re not buying tissues over Isak arriving its Slot out or Arsenal are bully boys.

Diddums! For years we were the entertainers didn’t win the league. If MA can get us over the line get the monkey off his back I’m sure he’ll revert to attacking. Yep Timber, Martinelli Ode Tross Zubi are all Viera / Keane types. If you think all we are are thugs then you don’t know football although lots seem to know better than Slot. We may not win the league it’s tough and plenty of we’ll just have to turn up to win! Again moronic! Wont find us on here counting any chickens. Grow up ignore pundits and social media narratives and support your own team, let us worry about us. 29 games to go anything can happen. Thugs bully boys Jeez COYG Not directed at you obviously Dracred!

28 Oct 2025 03:22:54
No worries Sussex, no offence taken at all. On the contrary, I'd love for the current Liverpool team to have a bit of steel in them. We have a soft belly atm and could do with a hard man in the centre of the pitch.

28 Oct 2025 22:19:19
Was a bit of a Guinness laden rant Dracred! I can’t even have a conversation with someone who half understands football let alone the bow locks I gather is being spouted on twatter! I read yours Uniteds and Chelsea’s pages and enjoy the banter if you win or we win but some of the bitter salty nonsense makes me wonder for the human race sometimes! Someone on the Chelsea page was almost trying to justify the Abramovich era to themselves by bringing up Sir Henry Norris over a hundred years ago and relating to trophies.

C£ty and Chelski not for me COYG.

26 Oct 2025 19:56:11
Great sign to win when not at our best, we are doing everything right at the moment. Long way to go but looks like things are falling in to place, my fingers will be crossed until May!

26 Oct 2025 23:02:59
The really exciting thing is I don't think we've yet seen the best of Zubi, Eze or VG.

Top of the league and still some individuals and the team collectively playing within ourselves, huge credit once again to our fantastic defence 👏.
