That's not how you judge a big trophy. It's judged by whether you enjoy winning it or not. If you just hate winning the FA Cup final and state clearly how much you hate it, then it's a small, insignificant trophy. But if you get to the final, win it and get all excited about it, that makes it a huge trophy on par with the CL - bigger if you cream your pants on the day. And if you habitually get excited about winning several FA Cups, especially if you are a crusty old yank miser, a senile old French miser or a young, handsome and enthusiastic admirer of all thing Wenger regardless, then it logically follows winning the FA Cup is the be all and end all of competitive sport and a sure sign of greatness (to the exclusion of any other 100 foot high signs).Quote:

We could do the treble this year, you realise, while clubs that have not over-performed as we have (talk to Ivan the Lizard for further details) are distracted by titles and Champions Leagues. It would be total vindication for the man who has made an art of chasing anything and everything bar, what some mistakenly call, top honours.
All publicity is good publicity. So they say.Quote:
Arsenal's AGM turned into a farce on Thursday with bumbling chairman Sir Chips Keswick unable to control the room.
The 77-year-old buffoon infuriated around 200 shareholders at the Emirates Stadium by refusing to answer relevant questions in a preposterously disdainful manner, telling one to ‘write in if you have a problem’.
77 year old buffoon :haha:
Ouch.Quote:
A couple of other bewildered Arsenal fans were told their questions were just statements when everyone apart from the idiotic Keswick knew what they were asking.
Keswick, who has proved an even worse AGM chairman than his incompetent predecessor Peter Hill-Wood — which is really saying something — suffered the embarrassment of the vast majority of shareholders in the room voting against the resolution to re-appoint him and owner Stan Kroenke’s son Josh to the board.
:haha:
Write in if you have a problem.
Wow. :haha:
We've had more than our fair share of those, amazing we continue to employ them.Quote:
