I think the hierarchy at the club do not care about the disgruntled supporters or much else other than their profit margins, share prices and dividends. Even our power to boycott has been diminished as at an average of £55 per (based on my season ticket price) we are unlikely to boycott many games in protest. We could of course give up our season tickets but then they would be bought up by more AKB idiots giving Arsene even more power, if that is at all possible. Bottom line is they don't care.

It may also interest you all to know that I am in the process of writing a letter to Arsenal to complain that they did not visit the Whittington Hospital's children's ward and day care centre at Christmas, as in previous years. This year's visit was cancelled on the day due to the snow (I thought they all drove 4 x 4's - Sheila, Hospital Play Specialist) with a promise that they would reschedule ASAP. Surprise surprise no visit was made. Having spent Christmas day in hospital with my son I know what a difference it made to the children and parents for Santa to visit each child with gifts (actually three different Santa's appeared throughout the day with presents) The nurses, and doctors not only carried out their duties but brought a bag of toys for the children and spent time playing with the children. Even some children from a local church group came to give out sweets. Meanwhile Arsenal Football Club couldn't be bothered to send a few players up during December or January. Still I suppose being driven to the local hospital for an hour's visit would be too much strain on them given all the hard work they do each and every day for the pittance in renumeration they receive.

On the other hand we could tell The Arsenal: PLEASE ACCEPT MY RESIGNATION. I DON'T WANT TO BELONG TO ANY CLUB THAT WILL ACCEPT PEOPLE LIKE ME AS A MEMBER (Groucho Marx)

Reasons to be cheerful?

So November arrives with cold weather and grey skies. Arsenal sit in 2 nd place with a great chance to make progress in the Carling Cup with a home draw against wigan Athletic. Poised to win our Champions league group and with six months of the season left have 3 of our five tougher away fixtures out of the way, having taken a respectable 4 from 9. I say respectable as, the Man City away trip aside the draw at Anfield on the occasion of Hodgson’s first game was a good result and the Chelsea game I don’t think anyone can really speak of any injustice. That leaves away games at Old Trafford and Sp*rs (who as we know raise their game for this fixture). With injured players gradually returning and the Polish goalkeepers showing signs of optimism, we’re in relatively good shape. Or so you’d think. Yesterday at the Emirates West Ham were put to the sword late on after some stout defending, a good performance from Robert Green and a couple of missed opportunities. The level of indign...

"The future has not been written. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves. I wish I could believe that."-John Connor To overcome Skynet was not easy, it involved time, belief and an indomitable human spirit. To beat a machine equipped with superior weaponry and a ruthless access to resources to increase its arsenal took ingenuity and a "never say die" attitude. Abu Dhabi is the ground zero of Skynet and Manchester CXV are the Terminators. The thing about Skynet is that there are no qualms about what their aim is, there are no notions of fairness. "Listen, and understand! Manchester CX are out there! They can't be bargained with. They can't be reasoned with. They doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And they absolutely will not stop... ever, until someone stops them flagrantly breaking rules"-Kyle Reese In a landscape where one team dominates it is up to a resistance to topple them, this is made hard when using resources that were ga...

HATE

Then Now Earlier today Captain Kirk sent me the following video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sG1f-v88-kU&sns=em To say it is both disturbing and upsetting is an understatement. We see the beautiful game as something of a mirror to society and try to look on the community of supporters as a positive force. A set of human beings with some values borne out of an understanding of what this great sport of ours can give us. However, it takes a certain amount of myopia from the Football Authorities to proclaim that all is well. The issues that were amplified over the weekend at Old Trafford cannot be trivialised when we see the full extent of hatred; in any form. The violence is shocking as we see people attacked on a basis that is a result of flawed thinking, and the powers that be proclaim all is well; all is not well. So when I look at those images, I have to ask myself this… http://youtu.be/6RVDQgVxprE
