We can only hope Abramovich gets tired of Mourinho again, whatever happens they must not win the CL with him, otherwise I'm done with this shit man.
Actually it's not the Arsenal fans who are moaning. It's the pundits who are apologising furiously for the way the chavs interpret "sport". The crowd sung boring, boring. It's just a crowd doing what a crowd does. "Same old Arsenal, always cheating", as we are being cheated out of the game by picking up bookings when our rivals walk away without sanction. The crowd sing it to wind us up and rub it in. No massive write up required the day after. So it's strange how the media has circled the Maureen bandwagon since the game. They seem to protest too much.Quote:

Some of the things we've said on here that's killed football.Quote:

But Chelsea? They've got the infinite money cheat on, they have no excuse for bus parking. They can have their pick of creative attacking players.
When we used to go to Old Trafford, back in the day when it was us or them, we went to win.
They didn't park the bus. We've seen way worse. They set themselves up to defend in numbers but break quickly.
I won't complain about it because when won our FA Cup against Utd we defended well and solid. I wouldn't take anything away from us on that day. Same goes for the way we got to the CL final.
I didn't see it to be fair but it seems they came to not lose rather than to win.
As long as there are draws in football, that will happen. It's partly why the American's haven't taken to 'soccer'!
Yep, disgraceful showing from a 300 billion quid squad.Quote:
