The local police have put out an appeal to the local community asking if everyone could please not commit a crime between 8pm and 11pm this evening.
Someone has replied saying
It's a deal and could you lot refraine nicking anyone from 6am to 6pm tomorrow.
Love it 🖒😊😆😆.

Apparently there is a new bidder for taking over at Arsenal and she is able to offer The Kronkee's something money can't buy in oder to take control of the club.
The lady in question is probably the most famous Arsenal fan on earth and is prepared to offer Stan her extensive and prestigious London home in exchange for full control of Arsenal.
Not only is she a life long gooner also her grandson is too, and it's her grandson she wishes to run the club as he has suddenly found himself at a lose end and she feels running Arsenal will be a positive way of keeping him occupied plus she hopes it might encourage him and his family to return to the UK to live and unite the family which has been going through a bit of a difficult period lately.
No this rumour is not from the usual tabloid media and I didn't read it on twitter or Facebook, it was written in my tealeafs this morning and compared to most media outlets the teanleafs have a pretty good success rate.
Oh and if the deal goes ahead Stan is going to demolish Buck house and build a Walmart.

Apparently City are surprised by the talk of us announcing Artetta as our manager when we haven't even spoken to them and agreed compensation.
Whatever has happened at Arsenal we used to be so prim and proper in how we conducted our business.
1.) 19 Dec 2019 11:17:19
This could be because the way they poached our players in the past. Pay back I guess.
2.) 19 Dec 2019 12:48:18
I doubt it but if so how old is josh 5?
City have well moved on from the Mark Hughes buy Arsenal days and have no interest in any of our players now days.
I'd incompetence was the more likely explanation than pay back.

I'm not sure if Emery can't or won't change his ways but either way it's plainly obvious his ways his methods his tactics just aren't working at premier league level.
What would be the point in continuing with Emery few more games or weeks! What is going to suddenly start working that hasn't worked upto this point in time?
9 points over 26 games isn't impossible to make up but neither will it be a formality for a new manager either.
There are absolutely no guarantees that if we change managers things will suddenly come good but there is a genuine possibility they might under a different manager that simply doesn't exist under Emery.
We have a squad that has the quality in abundance we just need someone who can organise and motivate them into a cohesive team that functions to its full potential.
There is no logical reason to carry on with Emery, I've read people saying the club don't want to pay his compensation money and would rather let him see out his contact to save what a £3 millions pay off?
But that's just people being negative towards the board because I'm sure Josh and Co are more than capable of working out the financial loss of champions league football money v £3 million in compensation without the need to consult the world's greatest mathematic brains first.
1.) 10 Nov 2019 13:24:20
As usual, nothing to disagree with from G62. I have little faith in the board to act decisively. They have a history of dithering and fiddling while the team burns on the pitch. As you said elsewhere, the only language they understand is empty terracing. I would rather listen to us lose on the radio, than freeze my arse off sitting at the Emirates.
I would love to be wrong, but those hoping for a sacking on Monday. I wouldn't hold my breath.
2.) 10 Nov 2019 15:08:24
Hi Urban mate I think you've got it bang on, vote with you bum if your not happy and spend your time doing something that does make you happy until the club team and manager give you reason to feel they are your best way of spending your time and money again.
3.) 10 Nov 2019 19:24:06
I just don’t know how emery is making Managing Arsenal look like a difficult job? This season I honestly couldn’t tell you what system we’re playing. Yes Wenger was dated, but you knew what you was getting. A team trying to play possession football until an opening presented itself. Against Leicester, we couldn’t even string 5 passes together. No one knew where each other are, we got strikers playing like wingers, playing so deep against a team that plays with 1 striker. Emery isn’t connected to his players and he’s not connected to the fans. Sack this tactical fraud, leave Freddie in charge til we can get a manager with a clear vision.
4.) 10 Nov 2019 19:43:08
It's true ice mate we have no identity no structure no Arsenal way of playing that the players can get they're heads around and become comfortable with and most importantly good at.
Every game a different starting 11 a different game plan a different formation what chance do our players have? And of course they are only human so are naturally becoming deflated and losing interest and motivation to simply indulge yet more nonsense.
5.) 11 Nov 2019 09:58:15
Icy, you are so right. It was embarrassing watching us play what amounted to a back five against a side with a lone striker. And Gunner, spot on about identity, we don't have one at all. We even had one under Graham, albeit based on grinding opponents down and a very flat back four with their hands up every five minutes. I watched Liverpool yesterday afternoon, and even with some (one) lucky breaks, they looked every bit the finished article where we look pedestrian. The worst of it is, our front three/ four are the measure of anything Liverpool have got. But the rest is disorganised, poorly deployed, and yes, lacking any kind of identity.
The papers (I know) are this morning reporting the boards confidence in Emery. If true, I'm not surprised. Of course, we don't want a trigger happy board, but one season, and a third of this one, is enough to know. It could be a long frustrating season.
6.) 11 Nov 2019 10:25:20
In a game that’s about numbers and statistics, I’d be curious to know which one Emery is impressing in, that’s keeping him in that seat.
Ed any inside news on what’s happening? I just can’t accept the board are content with him because under him, Speaking statistically, we won’t challenge top 4 and we don’t want to bank winning Europe when we can’t hold a clean sheet.
{Ed002's Note - It was a mistake brining him in and as I said he was far from first choice. The club has gambled financially on getting in to the top four come the end of the season, and that remains the primary target. It is difficult to see anything happening before the summer when I suspect there might well be a change.}
7.) 11 Nov 2019 10:54:47
The papers are all quoting Ormstein Urban mate so it's a highly credible that is the boards position.
I'm pinning my hopes on the board using Ormstein as a deflection tactic and going to surprise us all as they did when they let the papers run with the "we only had 40 million to spend" story all last summer then bosh! broke our transfer record :-) I know it's not a theory you'd want to put your house on being correct is it :-) ?
Like you said yesterday mate vote with your bum and if your not happy with what's being offered simply don't accept it and find a more enjoyable way of spending your time and money, 20,000 empty seats is an extremely difficult fans message to ignore for long.
8.) 12 Nov 2019 06:49:18
I'm with you 62 fingers crossed 🤞.

Just been reading Arsenal can easily spend £200 million this summer without falling foul of the profit and sustainability rules.
I think we have every reason to think this will be a very exciting summer for us.
Up The Arsenal ?.
1.) 01 Jun 2025 12:13:20
That is good news and hopefully we sell some players for some decent wedge to free up funds and wages plus agree contracts either the new and established stars. Decent foundation to build upon and hopefully we have the desire and necessary want to go that extra elusive step. ??❤️.
2.) 01 Jun 2025 15:15:00
The Express is claiming there will be no attempt from Arsenal to sign Raheem Sterling this summer. The Express then went on to claim that it will get dark tonight before becoming light again tomorrow morning.
I wonder how much the Express pay their journalists, I reckon I could squeeze that job into my coffee break and still have time for a second cup ????.
3.) 01 Jun 2025 16:49:46
I think you could do that and a quote of the day.
4.) 01 Jun 2025 17:55:37
£1000 a week and I'm their man SY.
I've got loads of stuff their dedicated reader's would absolutely love, such as water being wet, ice being cold and the average elephant being larger in size than the average ant ?.
5.) 01 Jun 2025 18:46:57
Feels like they would be getting a good deal for that.
11 May 2025 19:43:30
Fantastic come back today ????
People can say what they want about this team but they are the best we've had in years despite not being at full strength.
I'd love to see Martinelli play down the middle in our last 2 games given Merino absence.
29 Apr 2025 22:19:58
Wasn't the best game for us but into each life a little rain must fall.
Still loads of time for the sun to come out and everything to turn out nice again. Up The Arsenal ????.
1.) 30 Apr 2025 07:21:16
Morning John and everyone.
I am still confident we can go through. We will have Partey back. I think we are better away from home especially in Europe. Psg could have put the tie to bed in last few minutes but let us off the hook.
Slightly miffed at Arteta for the 2 subs he made way to late in the game.
COYG.
2.) 30 Apr 2025 12:10:45
I hope u are right but I fear another season of failure.
3.) 30 Apr 2025 12:59:46
One man's version of failure is another man's satisfaction with the progress being achieved.
4.) 30 Apr 2025 16:40:51
In the end it depends on who is the best team. Obvious but sometimes I forget that.
Declan's wonder goals catapulted us into the stratosphere that night and probably won't ever happen again. Last night the fans were very subdued at the Emirates, totally opposite to the Madrid game and that seemed to translate to the players.
Having Partey back next week will hopefully stabilise the midfield.
And how many teams would be where we are at this moment with all our front line missong for most of the season!
5.) 30 Apr 2025 17:35:19
So 62 you are happy never winning anything and where is the progress this season if anything we have gone backwards!
6.) 30 Apr 2025 17:38:42
Tbh Sally I think we play better away in Europe. Apart from losing to Inter by a dodgy pen we have been great away. My son in law who was at the game said atmosphere was great before game right up to when Psg scored and then you could feel the tension in the stadium. Our main strikers are missing but we beat Real without and we can get past Psg without them. Take care
COYG.
7.) 30 Apr 2025 17:43:43
Hi Sally, before the Real home game none of is expected Rice to deliver world class goals from free kicks, last night we were a little disappointed he didn't deliver again, neither did any of us except the team to completely blow Real away 5 1 over 2 leg's but last night we were disappointed we didn't do the same thing to PSG.
This manager and team have raised expectancy levels to a 20 year high over the last 3 years and for me personally that is anything but failure but I accept to other people without silverware absolutely everything is failure, I just don't share their way of viewing things.
8.) 30 Apr 2025 18:51:08
Hi Bill I still think we can make the final too mate. Last night we started with everyone fans, media and world football having huge expectations of us and we failed to reach those huge expectancy levels. The football pedestal is an extremely fikle where last week's kings in waiting are very quickly reduced to run of the mill also rans in the eye's of the media.
PSG go into the second leg as finalists elect as the expectancy dial is switched from us to them.
9.) 30 Apr 2025 19:51:35
It's only half time lads and Sally. As Jimmy Greaves use to say "it's a funny old game"
10.) 30 Apr 2025 20:33:25
Hi Sparky, we know we have better performances in us than last nights and because we know this to be true we have every reason to look forward to next week's game.
8 consecutive last 16 exists was followed by 6 consecutive seasons of non qualifications before last seasons QF and this seasons SF and counting, last night was disappointing but hardly a disaster.
11.) 01 May 2025 08:05:27
Yes 62 and everyone will remember that in 50 years time!
12.) 01 May 2025 16:06:34
In not sure about 50 years Oleary, but clearly I remember the last 16 years 8 of which resulted in last 16 exits and were followed by a 6 year total absence and most recently a QF last year and of course a SF and still counting this year.
Check in with me in 2075 and I'll tell you what I remember about the next 50 years then.
13.) 01 May 2025 17:47:41
What did we win for that?
14.) 01 May 2025 18:27:59
My love appreciation and gratitude, Oleary. And who could possibly wish for more!
I love people who give everything for the cause even when their 100% efforts aren't always enough. I don't insist everyone is 100% successful 100% of the time in order for me to appreciatite and respect them as people or as an organisation, how could I possibly demand from others what I personally am not capable of achieving myself?
But i oh so do love a trier.
15.) 04 May 2025 10:13:31
no one remembers coming second. you have enough to get the job done in paris, and i expect you to do that. good luck and i hope you all get what you want.
17 Apr 2025 17:12:42
ooh to be, ooh to be, ooh to be a gooner ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
16 Apr 2025 22:10:29
Who's that team they call The Arsenal, who's that team we all adore.
What a night, what a week, what a team, just how awesome were those two performances ????.
{Ed025's Note - you played very well G62 and im made up for you mate, but i have to admit i could have strangled Saka when he acted like an idiot with that pen, and im not happy with Timber turning his back on the corners...but besides that im highly delighted mate...congratulations..
1.) 16 Apr 2025 22:30:46
Hey Ed025 mate, that was your victory too mate. You've always been a closet gooner, with pretty see through doors ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
{Ed025's Note - i am you know G62, really disappointed we never won the league though mate but i suppose the CL would be a nice consolation.. :)
2.) 16 Apr 2025 22:47:57
We've had worse day's Rodders 25 mate
Shall I go first, or will you, or we could just go together?
Up The Arsenal ?????????.
{Ed025's Note - absolutely Del.. or al a carte as they say in the Dordogne.. :)
11 Jun 2025 20:40:25
I don't really know anything about Sesko mate but his goals per game record doesn't look all that, but if he joins us hopefully with good service that will improve dramatically ?.
11 Jun 2025 18:45:15
Well said Cumbria mate ?.
31 May 2025 16:32:31
We have to hope so mate, I don't genuinely knowledge but if I had put a months money on it one way or the other I'd have no hesitation in backing both to sign new deals and stay with us.
28 May 2025 19:26:47
BBC main page reporting it Mark mate, usually means it's happening as they normally deal in news on the main page and keep the rumours separate in their gossip round up.
28 May 2025 19:22:04
Billions? Just shows the lack of ambition from the owners. If they really cared about winning they'd spend Trillions at least ?????.
12 Jun 2025 22:55:16
You don't sound like someone who is ready to keep a respectful distance Mr Sharp, neither do you sound like someone who is ready to accept the zen camomile tea and monk robes version of me is entirely of your creation.
I have absolutely no problem whatsoever of respectfully staying away from you, the question is can you it within yourself to simply ignore me and get on with enjoying the company of everyone else but me on the site?
12 Jun 2025 19:45:41
Hi Ed001, someone who has recently decided to stop posting certainly sounded very angry with Arteta and those posters who refused to agree with his feelings about Arteta, he made absolutely no secret of how he felt about those posters who refused to agree with him. He definitely sounded like a very angry and upset person to me mate.
12 Jun 2025 21:30:48
If I lived a Zen lifestyle you would possibly be totally correct Mr Sharp, but the camomile tea and monk robes were entirely of your creation, all I've done is play along with the image you have decided to project onto me, but in my own way.
I have long since stopped commenting on your posts and comments to others and choosen only to respond to any comments you post towards me or about me. I find life's easier if we accept there will always be people who for whatever reason we are never going see eye to eye with and to keep a respectful distance from those people who we simply don't gel with.
12 Jun 2025 18:57:58
Hi Ed001 there have been people who are themselves clearly angry and upset about us coming 2nd again who have become angry with those people who refuse to share their opinions and anger. Which is why I mentioned the word angry.
{Ed001's Note - how can you tell that when none have ever said that? It is impossible to tell from text only what someone's state of mind is.}
12 Jun 2025 18:20:43
Hi Ed001 I'm interested in what's going on, optimistic and looking forward to the new season ahead. I just don't worry about or bother getting myself upset about things I have absolutely no control over whatsoever. Whatever does or doesn't happen this summer and next seaspn will take place with or without my consent to do, what where's the value in getting myself angry about things I cannot change even if I wanted to.
{Ed001's Note - not sure why you are talking about getting angry, no one else has mentioned that.}
