Painful stuff to watch and it seems as though this Arsenal team's M.O. is to torture the fans for as long as is possible.

Deserved win though. It's only because that was plucky ickle Wolves putting up a fight that people are saying they deserved a draw. Any decent team would be lambasted for their lack of ambition. Arsenal had the vast majority of the play and the chances.

Bad decision for the red btw. Ref was pretty poor throughout.

Ray Houghton saw it as a red, did he also foul Theo in the 1st half?

Is that meant to a positive or a negative? Maybe I'll have a look at it again, but in the pub it didn't look like a red at all to me. I'm off to the pub now though.

BENDTNER, FÚCK YEA.

I was on a full bus listening on my phone radio with rubbish signal when Bendtner scored, prompting me to shout aloud, if I ever meet Nicklas Bendtner he's getting a hand job

I'm a Wolves supporter (my "family" team) and they were fupping brilliant only to be done in at the death by Bendtner :eek: with loads of help from the ref.

Arsenal fans very sensitive I see.

It wasn't more than a pathetic Wolves deserved for the amount of timewasting theta ere doing from as early as the 50th minute..

Arsenal lacked the killer edge when required but we got what we deserved, considering we were the only one that actually wanted to attack and win the game. Wolves were poor, over defensive and lacked anything other than a mentality of playing for a 0-0 draw. One I am delighted they didn't get.

I suppose though at least they sent their first team out for this one. United didn't get such a "privelage".

Justice in the end. End of.

I'm not sure Bendtner would want to meet any Arsenal fan on this forum! The poor lad would be sodomised to near death.

Stay away Nick, for the love of God, stay away. You'll end up walking funny for days!!

I know you're a "legend" on Boards Mike and you even think of yourself as the "king of Boards" but with such Shît posts as the one you posted earlier it's easy to see how you clocked up such a post count.

Point taken and original post editted. It wasn't meant as a personal attack but I can see how it might be taken that way.

Fair enough. Alan Hansen pretty scathing of the refereeing of the Rosicky/Henry moment.

Ray Houghton took the opposite view on it, to be fair Henry should have been booked in the 1st half for his challenge on Walcott,no mention of that on MOTD) and the tackle on Rosicky deserved a yellow imo.

I missed MOTD for the Arsenal Wolves game, what did Hanson and Lawro
say about the title race re: Arsenal ?

I don't understand the arsenal tactic of crossing the ball in the box when nobody is there. Still alive in the title race but running on fumes I think at the moment. 2nd would be good though!

Completely agree. I'm not convinced that Sagna is a good crosser of the ball anyway, even if there was someone in the box the likelihood is it'll be nowhere near them.

On percentages I'm pretty sure he did a better job than Walcott. And it was Sagna that delivered for Bendtner.

What an absolutely ridiculous red card decision.

Did you see Rosicky's calf after the incident?

Nice stud wound he got for his troubles. I suppose the fact he didn't end up with a broken leg meant it was fair enough.
