    Arsenal have just themselves and especially their leaky defence to blame. Gutted when Bolton scored the second + they would have deserved to have won it. Even if the greatest miracle since the loaves and the fishes took place, Arsenal would not be deserving champions though needless to say i would accept it nonetheless. I do have to laugh at all these United fans saying... "Serves them right for their arrogance!!!!"

    Hello Mr Pot, this is Mr Kettle speaking, by the way you are looking pretty black today..

    lol .... did anyone hear on the news that Paddy Powers have already paid out on Arsenal to win the league! Now they might have to pay out double if Utd win it.

    The word ... d'oh ... comes to mind! :D

    Not a hope the arse top the pole of arrogance.

    Tell me what other team was saying at the start of the season

    “It would not surprise me if we went unbeaten all season” - ARSENE WENGER.

    “My players are hurting after losing to Everton. You will be surprised by the reaction from my team against Auxerre” - ARSENE WENGER, OCTOBER 22. THEY LOST AGAIN.


    They pranced around all season as if the league was theirs to win IF they wanted. Subbed players in matches almost proclaiming "we have this won, now take off our main players"

    Not saying that arse will not win it, still very possible, but if they do not then arsen whinger will feel like a right prat now

    Why laugh at it? At least when we were arrogant we actually went on to win the league on the majority of occasions.

    Thats interesting about Paddy Power, cos the year Arsenal won it manu threw away an 8 point lead. Some bookies in England had already paid out on Man u winning.

    Blame the bookies for paying out tbh ;)

    . I do have to laugh at all these United fans saying... "Serves them right for their arrogance!!!!"

    It is one thing fans being mouthy and arrogant, they are fans and that is part of thier job. But I bet you have never heard Fergie say it is in the bag now, till the league was in fact in the bag. I think Wenger handled this whole season prettty badly. Arsenal thought they had it in the bag all along, suddenly found out they were going to have to fight for it after all, and couldn't produce the goods under pressure. I know it is not over yet, but the manager should be keeping his team motivated, not wrenching his arm out trying to pat himself on the back, in OCTOBER, ffs!

    Who dropped out of the Fa Cup in 2000 to play in a 2 bit tornament in Brazil by the way????

    Who has a record of making illegal approaches for players to upset other camps deliberately.

    Arsenal may be arrogant with the Gallic contingent at the club but Manchester United are, always have been and always will be 10 times worse....

    Please take a look at yourselves before pointing out other teams faults in future.

    how are these examples of arrogance!! :rolleyes:

    Once again tipp_gunner you come up with feeble responses to statements, bit like the boss of the team you support.

    Give us examples of a team showing "arsenal" arrogance and then you may have a point until then you know and we know arse are the worst their is. Could you imagine if pires, viera, henry or any of the rest of them jumped up fuks played for a successful team like Real!! They would have to put a new stand on the Bernabeau to fit their egos!

    So im feeble???

    Listen i could not be bothered getting into a squabble with someone who just wants to make personal digs at people for having a differnce in opinion with him rather then just state his own and debate it in a civilised manner.

    Let that be your problem.

    in fact thats not the first time you have had a pop i seem to remember a remark regarding us tipperary people and our "Hang Sangwiches" at hurling matches .....

    Is it possible you have a superiority complex similar to the team you support??????

    who knows, who cares, either way grow up Yop.. If you want to argue you have plenty of people around you im sure to pick on...


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 16,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭yop


    you give up to easy, but in this case you or your team cannot argue that they are a complete shower of arrogant twats and that this time there pride definately came before the fall.

    I am not having a go at you at all, just the statement you made.

    I am only pullin the piss, but I do remember there been a couple of tipp jokes and the auld "hang sandwiches" going around. Nothing personal intended. ;)

    hey yop how about fergie saying that uefa fixed the draw for the champs league
    sounds to me that he was accepting defeat already and blaming someone else for the forthcoming ass whooping they were about to recieve!! :D
    at least wenger will be humble in defeat on the otherhand fergie doesnt even know what that word means and if u ask him he'll prob throw a boot at you and tell ya **** off(as he usually does with journalist who ask the awarkward questions)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,064 ✭✭✭BKtje


    twas a bit silly of fergie to say that, but as i said before. freedom of speech etc.

    man u lost by 1 goal over 2 legs, hardly an ass whopping.

    Thats fair enough thank you

    The season is not over yet - both Charlton & Everton may have something to add before the season is over.

    I will reserve my judgement towards who is the most aggogant when I see who has won the league!
