    Aparently the French contingent at Arsenal are being
    "lead" by Robert Pires in threatening a playing strike to support the French government position on the war against Saddam. :rolleyes:

    Yeah, I can really see that happening :rolleyes:

    And I presume they'll have full backing of their manager and fellow countyman Wenger too?

    My hole he will, every fkn week he has something to moan about, I honestly (correct if I am wrong) know of a player who has a moan about something each week.

    It was Uniteds so called dirty play one week, diving (i think) another week, this week it is the war.

    Probably blame the war for them been dumped out of the CL and if they do not win the FA cup or league.

    Pires says his words were taken out of context

    OK I've had to delete several posts off this thread.

    They had nothing to do with the subject.

    One was a generalised racist comment about the French. User Jesus H Christ any more off topic or irrelevant posts from you and I will ban you.

    PigmanII you were banned before, Dev decided to leave you on here. Do not encourage any more users like you did here today.

    Stop, don't start me!! The state of him, you'd feel like pinning him down and getting the razor out, but I suppose he might like that ;)
