Arsenal v Aston Villa - Saturday 17 August - 15:00

[Niall_Quinn]

Same tackle - no card. Bent ref.

[Marc Overmars]

So we only have 1 available centre back for next weekend.

It's about quality, not quantity. Apparently.

[Niall_Quinn]

Unlucky Walcott, good effort.

But this team already looks defeated.

[Edinburgh Gooner]

Same tackle - no card. Bent ref.

i ntake my last comment back after seeing that

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Again we don't get to play on.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Sigh.

We all could see this coming from two months ago but the ref hasn't helped things. Just simply inexcusable.

Yeah, who could have even guessed this would happen. It's not total incompetence, just bad luck and a lack of quality in the market that didn't move as we expected. And it's also PSG's fault.

[Kano]

What excuses can be made for this. Referee? Wrong type of ball? Temperature a little low? Anything bar making sure we have a team strong enough to beat a shithouse bunch like Villa.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Guzan saves from Rosicky.

[Master Splinter]

Spending money wouldn't improve the performance of this referee would it?

Our situation is laughable yes, but it's a seperate issue to a result being decided on the whims of a clown.
