Yeah, still I get angry every time :laugh:
Reckon I'm a couple of stages past that tbh. This was depressing though. We'll be out of the title race by December go on a great run and Arsene will say "look at how we've improved we're definitely contenders next season" and on it goes.

Got a bunch of fannies in our side itbt. Double the shots on goal and on target but never looking like we could close out even if we did go ahead.

Almunia went from solid last season back to poo this season and Clichy, Diaby, Denilson were utter dog****. Same old same old.

If we drop out of the top 4 new manager please. No excuses for not strengthening the squad. Not one. Nothing kneejerk about this, the man has been making the same mistakes for 4 years and no-one has the bollocks to challenge it.

I can't get past the stage. I cop a load of stick about us getting beat and it riles me. I manage to accept that our season is over for another year for all of a week. I can never ever detach myself. Losing when you have nothing to win doesn't sit any better with me than losing when you still have everything to play for.

Haha, yeah. Know the feeling, I think as I got a bit older anger sort of becomes tired acceptance. Especially as I've watched the same things happen over and over again for a few years.

Can't get over the Groundhog Day comparison, it's so apt. Feel like Bill did every time that ****ing alarm clock went off. Eboue being the ****ing groundhog.

Not sure how much it has to do with Wenger and how much is to do with the board. If you do drop out of the top four, who would you want to replace him? Can't imagine anyone better will come, given the club's expectations are so out of line with the financial backing they seem to receive.

He's had the money for four years. That excuse doesn't wash. He's had no excuse for not investing in the squad.

Heh, reckon half our team already did their best impression tbh. Feeling so weird right now. not angry, not sad, not even frustrated. Just down.

**** we got stuck into the Arse supporters at the pub.

"ADEBAYOR, ADEBAYOR, HE'LL KICK VAN PERSIE IN THE HEAD, THEN HE'LL SCORE"

They wanted a blue but were booted, was hilarious.

Ha, two defeats (one unlucky) & it's "Wenger out" already? Jeez. You boys wouldn't have lasted five minutes in the 80s when we were properly ordinary & played poo football too.

"More than one" normally pluralised, yeah.

Wenger's a victim of his own success; maybe it's because I'm old enough to remember the bad old days I'm inclined to give him a bit more leeway, but the shiny new stadium & qualifying for the cash-cow that is the CL every year is pretty much directly down to him.

Which is all well and good but it shouldn't guarantee him a job for life. Especially when he's been taking the team and club consistently backwards over the past few years.

If he thought it was rough the treatment the team got last season, he should wait for it should it continue this season. If we finish top 4 then it's all good, but for the amount the club rape the fans for every week you expect a helluva lot more. The board are more than happy to qualify for the Champions League and make money every transfer window.

All this bluster about winning trophies is conning fans into buying season tickets.

Is anyone else getting the "St Georges by Duffer Sale at Debehams" advertisement as a result of the presence of a certain poster?

If that's the case, I don't think you're placing the blame on the right man.
