I hope our boys are seeing all of it and our changing starts becoming as up for the Arsenal games as they are Chelsea home and away.

Does anyone have some of the Tweets that were going round last year showing the contrast in social media output between Arsenal's players when they beat us vs our players when we beat them, or any big game?

Seems to be they absolutely revel in rubbing it in, while our players just get on with their lives. Have just seen that Ramsey put #sitdownhesaid on his Instagram...they all do seem to love a changing room celebration video despite the fact that we're not even half way through the season and we've finished above them for the last 2 years. And not just 'finished above them by a point' like they basically did to us for about 10 years, but we have been way out ahead of them for the last two. The gap has been embarrassing, and I'm quite surprised they feel they have enough to chirp about this early on.

We have swapped places...
They did a lap of honour
Their fans launched flares
Their inferior players excelled (and they did have sown good ones)
The atmosphere sounded great
They celebrated like they had actually won a trophy

Honestly felt like is 5 years ago

As a curosity, it seems like the law should include another word as well as "perceived". Commonly perceived, or perceived by a community etc.

In this instance I think even including the word perceived could lead to a mistake. This guy is an idiot but not a racist. I've thrown banana skins at mates of mine and my sister. Admittedly Caucasian mates/sister but I've definitely done it in my life which I'm sure if people were honest they'd have done too. It was just a missile and the media and fans of our rivals are jumping on this like the predictable bunch of tacos they are.

I still cannot understand how Ramsey was allowed onto the pitch. He should've been given an instant red card for pushing Dier from the touchline. Whoever that pathetic toe-rag that grabbed Dele should've been red carded. And as for that GIANT fudging clam Lichtensteiner, you guessed it, red card for again putting a hand on our players. Dele's reaction/lack of was incredible!!!! That they did not see three red cards was because Dean could not handle the fact they were falling apart and breaking the rules, thus obviously thought of he applied the rules he would lose control of the game!!!!

The more I think about it, had Dean actually shown even ONE ball, let alone a pair, the goons would've lost as the plot had been thrown away and they were losing their cool.

Someone put some stupid state about how few passes Dele completed...could that have been because every fudging time he got the ball her was taken out? Not only do I want to beat them in less than 2 weeks, I want to smash them to pieces.

How on earth could you know whether this guy was a racist or not?

Flip it round, Arsenal fans throw a banana skin at a group of our players, including King. You think our fans would be talking about how the Arsenal fans aren't racist? Trying to find excuses for him?

What does you throwing banana skins at white friends got to do with this situation? And for that matter, what does part of his defence (that he's Cypriot) mean? Is he essentially suggesting only white people can be racist? That Cypriots can't be?

Pathetic isn't it? The bloke is a clown shoe and should be treated as the idiot macaron he is. I do NOT want racists supporting my fudging club. As for anyone talking about perception, I have been to over 30 NL derbies in my life and never threw any objects at anyone. Lets be honest, how many football fans go to a football match eating a banana because it keeps their potassium levels up? It is rubbish. The idiot knew. Throw the book at him.

They are emotional and eventually that will show as the season progresses. I don’t think winners, or people that have the most winning mentality, get riled up like they do or celebrate the relatively small victories like they do.

Hope those tweets are put up in our changing room. Make sure Erik and Eric see them. We'll see what they'll do to Toreiro and Ramsey next time they meet. Sometimes Poch, you can't stay away from Social Media.

Never thrown bananas or banana skins except in a bin.

Plus it's not like he threw it at Aaron Ramsey. He threw it at a black player.

Wasn't Poch in charge when we sold Siggy? Don't think he rated him... I'd have him back mind you.
Click to expand...
He was, but he definitely rated him. I remember him saying after we sold him that he didnt want to sell him, but we had Eriksen and Siggy deserved to be playing every week or something along those lines. Was basically saying in an ideal world would like to keep him....

I was gutted when we sold him, is pretty similar to Eriksen but more of a goal threat. Not sure we have the clout to take players from Everton though, they have plenty of money so he'd cost a fortune and are a side on the up....
