without a clue


Yesterday was about poor performances; Diaby Dennilson & Rosicky, none of whom should be on the Arsenal payroll. The Referee and his assistants, but most of all from the Manager of the Month whose team selection and lack of tactical acuity turned a three point catch up into a one point pigeon step.
The fact that there are young players on loan who are not given a chance due to the misplaced faith in some of the squad is a contradiction of Wenger's self proclainmed 'investment in youth'; inexperince is no longer an excuse for some of this lot.
We now rely on Liverppol to beat Man Utd later today. Should Ferguson come away from Anfield with three points I'm afraid it's game over for our title aspirations.
A loss for the Red Devils would put yesterday in the 'point gained' category and still allow us an opportunity to close the gap.
One thing worth considering though, is, would Ferguson have only taken a point from yetsrday's game if the circunmstances were reversed? I think we all know the answer to that.
And so i'm off out for the day and shall check the result from Anfield later. I suspect it will be more bad news for the Manager of the month. I am sad to report that I feel March may just be a month to forget for us all,following trips to the Nou Camp & Old Trafford; but, you never can tell.

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...

"IF WE BEHAVE LIKE THEM, THEN WHAT IS THE POINT IN WINNING? "- John Connor

"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
