Arsenal, lol.

Poor old Claude that's the second Christmas in a row he's been made to choke on his turkey - he's too genuine a bloke to be a gooner somehow.
Weird season this one alright, and we are definitely in with a chance of top 3.

This is the most mental season ever, and I love it. Not just because (newcastle aside) we seem to be heading in the right direction with a proper team (rather than a few good players propped by by 1 or 2 galacticos), but Bournemouth, Leicester, Watford producing shock results so regularly, they're not shock results anymore.

I'm even enjoying the phone in on the radio - how can you not enjoy listening to Chelsea and Man U fans moan and whinge??

I love Claude, he's such entertainment

I have said it before many times, taking the piss out of Woolwich nearly always leaves us looking stupid.

When they stumble - enjoy !

Over the Premiership years we've finished ahead of every team........except one! I think we should pipe down until we've at least reached that milestone!

If Citeh had even a tiny bit of consistency there would be no talk of the goon scum getting anywhere near the title, but there have been many times this season when Citeh seem determined NOT to win it.

This is what pisses me off about the whole thing.....if the goons win the title it will be because City have handed it to them on a silver platter.

Have to disagree with that. Man city don't want to lose it so noone is being handed anything. City have a different set of challenges to deal with and they are very inconsistent. If they hit some sticky patches then there are a few teams that can take advantage, not just the arse. And if it happens to be us we'll deserve it too.

Nah, I'll take the piss out of them. I didn't expect us to be challenging them this year, out aim is 4th, theirs is the title, so if they fail to reach their objective and we achieve ours I'll be happy.

 

[klacey]

Be interesting to see how they react to losing 4-0. We were in a similar position when all we needed to go 4th was to beat newcastle and we lost. Luckily we responded extremely well. Lets hope its the opposite for them. lol

Just hope we can emulate what Soton did when we next play the Arse.

What sort of logic is that? If any team has a bad result you take the piss out of them. I'm not going to go telling any of their fans that we're going to finish above them, but I am going to give them grief when they mess up.

That's the type of logic that has bitten us on the arse so many times before - the whole "downward spiral" or "mind the gap" debacle were both cringeworthy and embarrassing!

That mind the gap stuff was always going to end badly. That's the sort of stuff that you should save until the end of the season, but you have to give them grief when you can. The chances are that they'll probably win the league, so make the most of any slip-ups they have on the way,

 

[etchedchaos]

It's every football fan's god-given right to take the piss when someone else's team gets ripped a new one or messes up, doesn't matter what the teams are or the gap between them.

I was at WHL that night in 1971, the Goons hadn't won eff all for 19 years.

The choke is strong in this one.

That should be 'over the Arsene Wenger years'. In the first four seasons of the Premier League, before Wenger arrived, we finished above Arsenal twice.
