It's getting to unacceptable levels on here from some posters.


If you're posting like an opposition fan coming on here to wind up Arsenal fans, and some of you are, then we're going to start banning you from the threads where you do that. If you persist then we'll stop you posting completely for a time 'till you get it through your thick skulls that it's not acceptable.


Same goes for the tiresome point scoring


Stop it. Seriously.

Wenger: 'We are still working in the transfer market but we only want exceptional players'


Wenger: 'We try to give value for money. Our attitude is to achieve that'


Wenger: 'In England you are always under pressure to buy'


Wenger: 'There's different ways to be successful in football. Money helps but is not the only way'

For example, my post on the Henry thread Ollie made said something like "I'm happy he scored but not more so than any other player scoring"

Wtf is wrong with that? So being happy our player is scored is worthy of having a post deleted but racism, serious or otherwise by certain posters is allowed.

Yeah new mods needed.

That post was just your typical style of saying the opposite of what most everyone else thinks just to get a reaction and a bit of attention.

It's really boring. Stop it.

The post I deleted from the City match thread was about hoping Giroud is injured. Again, no Gooner would actively wish one of our players injured (well OK, Gervinho maybe but Giroud, while no RvP, has been one of our top scorers). Even if you don't think he should start he's a better option to have on the bench than others. It was more attention seeking nonsense. And I've deleted other posts when you've acted like an opposition fan coming on here to wind up Gooners.

Stop it.

Obviously serious racism isn't allowed, jokes are within reason and as before you're welcome to report posts you feel offensive.

Tbh it gets to be like groundhog day on here, the same people are spouting the same shit regardless of results. Its coming to the stage that if we went on to win the league people would still complain about it not being justified. People are even hoping we get relegated or finished just off the drop zone just so that they're proved right, its ridiculous. What kind of a fan would want that truthfully?!

On top of that you've got Cripps just trying to irritate people to the point where no replies to him because everyone's blocked him.

Cripps is hardly the only one who WUMs. The anti Walcott brigade are the biggest WUMs around tbh.

In any case his Henry post wasn't a WUM attempt, I must admit that goal didn't lift me as much as it did for others, perhaps because we were in such dire form at the time.

Regardless of results? Trouble is a few half decent results really don't change anything, we've had 7 years of this and what's actually improved/changed....absolutely nothing, if anything it's got worse.

We need a major change now and most people aren't fooled by a few results because in the end the same thing that happens every season will happen, so in effect a few results don't really make anyone happy anymore as they amount to another false dawn.

I'm not really enjoying watching us anymore, the club and team have no identity and everything is so predictable and when something is that predictable it just becomes boring, there no surprises, no excitement, no unexpected anymore it the same old same old all the time. In that sense I don't really care about the results anymore as I know they don't really mean much in the grand scheme of things.

to be fair we dont have much else to talk about.

we never sign any major players in the transfer window.
we dont win any trophies.
we see the same mistakes for 7 years.

there is no progression at this club so what do we talk about?

we have a limited scope of topics to talk about and even when we do, its about the same thing year on year because we see the same mistakes, year on year, being made. so we either debate these points seriously every week which lets face it, is just unrealistic because it gets tedious after a while, or we debate them like we did for the first couple of seasons, and then begin adding some humour/banter/wit into it.

the team is letting us down so badly we have nothing to smile or talk about, so lets at least be banterous between ourselves.

i go on united/chelsea/even liverpool forums and they have new threads about new players, trophies, tactics etc. we have nothing because we arent moving forward. hence why we degenerate to witty remarks in every thread. in fact we even see the same threads made that were created years ago, 'will wenger change', 'why dont we spend money' etc, its all just being churned after a few seasons. most of it has been done to death. on top of that there's probably not going to be much change for the foreseeable future so people are probably thinking fuck it i cant be arsed to debate. whats the point.

if we stuck to serious debate this forum would quickly die out.

ok letters i know you are mad about the wumming but come on what do you expect, its been a farce the last 7 years, selling our best players and whenever we get a half decent team together we are one or two players away from getting a trophy wenger refused to bring in the players and as a result we have faced a trophy less 7 years. We have been utterly wummed by the board, refusing to invest and just collecting cash, we are one of the most expensive teams in the world to watch and for what? we are awful and we will never receive adequate investment with silent stan running things. Wenger has become a muppet, here to economise and collect his wage bill without giving a fuck of what the fans actually want. And you know the worse thing? we could have improved our squad massively this window by signing ba and Sneijder which would have cost 15 million combined, but no wenger was far too stubborn.

We've been wummed so badly the last few years and nothing will change while wenger is still manager, we have an awful team with no hunger or desire and a boardroom full of crooks, no wonder people are WUMming on here because there is no reason to be optimistic or believe that things will change. RVP leaving last summer for man utd was the last kick in the teeth for me.

I do think the groundhog day nature of Arsenal these days has contributed to the decline of this board - what else is there to talk about when it's clear nothing is going to change in the short term. But that doesn't excuse the point scoring and WUMming from some. I'm not talking about a bit of joking around, I think most people know the sort of thing I'm getting at.

I guess I'll mainly post a few comments about RvP (to wind Maccy up) and not much else. Maybe a few Theo :doh: a comment on 72 minutes about how shit the sub choices are, something about desperately needing a DM, maybe a brief attack on Ramsey, some boilerplate stuff on how laughable our defence is (still)

In fact there's no need to really post at all now, I'll just copy/ paste this.
