  1. Equal top with the " Guard, stay here and guard the Prince, make sure 'ee doesn't leave" sketch 😂😂😂
  2. Don't forget, as Todd once said about our stadium. " It's sitting on a piece of prime real estate in central London. I don't know if Johnathan Goldstein, a Spurs fan and a property developer is still on the board, but it's always good to terrify ourselves with the unthinkable happening!!
  3. Can't see this making any difference? The eventual ending of the 10 year embargo on paying themselves dividends and management fees probably makes the club more attractive for potential buyers ?? Or maybe if our value hasn't risen enough for our investors to make a suitable return, they hang on, extracting money from the club while waiting for the value to rise due to a huge Broadcasting/streaming rights deal ?
  4. Just come across this Ersk. I loved this player, completely opposite to the big, physical centre forwards of that time, along with the slightly built Paulo Rossi of Italy. I think the piece below describes Butragueno's style of play perfectly....👍 Forward Who Attacked Without NoiseEmilio Butragueño did not overwhelm defenders with power. He dismantled them with subtlety. His movement felt effortless. His finishing felt inevitable. And his intelligence shaped Real Madrid’s identity during the 1980s. While many strikers relied on physical dominance, Butragueño relied on timing, angles, and anticipation. Anyone studying striker movement or off‑ball intelligence eventually arrives at his legacy. Origins Rooted in Precision and CalmButragueño emerged from Real Madrid’s famed youth system, La Fábrica, with a style that contrasted sharply with the era’s physical forwards. He moved lightly. He scanned constantly. He attacked space with surgical intent. His breakthrough came in 1984, when Alfredo Di Stéfano promoted him to the first team.
  5. The Tennet Cup?? Remember when Tennent's beer cans used to have pictures of women on them ? Is Tennent's lager still available??
  6. I'm well glad we're rid of him. I haven't seen or heard the comments you mention, but it doesn't surprise me. The annoying thing is that the f**ker keeps winning. Let's hope he quickly gets them playing the boring useless football that he imposed on us
  7. Excellent booing from United fans at the end 😂👍
  8. What a great find mate 👍
  9. Deflection attempt , you wrote a screenplay in 1932 !!
  10. Ovrebo comes to mind. So, Arsenal and United obviously don't suffer from dodgy decisions because if they did,they would kick up a fuss about it and therefore refs make sure decisions are correct? Well, VAR took ages ( maybe because they considered and then dismissed the media fuss and death threats) before giving a really dodgy decision against United, which I'm delighted about José complained non stop when he was our manager, even when there was nothing to complain about he kicked up a fuss, didn't help us at all.. Mind you we had a f**king great team, great players, great manager, we didn't need perfect decisions... By the way ( btw) Ovrebo got death threats ya know.
  11. 2005 after we beat Sc**thorpe in the FA Cup.. Brian Laws was given a parting gift by Jose Mourinho after his side's defeat against Chelsea ..It was a copy of the scouting report that Chelsea had prepared on the visitors, in which the English League Two team received warm praise. "He went into the dressing-room after the game and made the players feel very, very special," said Sc**thorpe's manager. "He's treated us like kings and we nearly took a ransom."
  12. Mike Dean's (on VAR duty) decision not to intervene in the Cucurella hair pulling v Spurs because the on field ref Taylor is his friend and was having a "difficult" time was f**king outrageous. As was the ref in the battle of the bridge v Spurs who didn't want to give a deserved red card to any Spurs player in case it affected the outcome of the title challenge. . No wonder many fans believe we are ( deliberately) hard done by
  13. Please use proper words, not daft abbreviations. Thank you. By the way ( btw) what or who is a BB ?
  14. Reading the Shed End Forum for a few years now, it's clear that EVERYONE has it in for Chelsea, and refs will do everything in their power to stitch us up. Yet our club is silent on the obvious conspiracy against us . Are the club part of the conspiracy against us too ? Makes ya wonder dunnit?
  15. Taylor booked a record 14 players in our game at Bournemouth. He actually booked the Bournemouth captain for approaching him, justifying the booking by explaining that the player had ' come from afar " !! What a turnip!
  16. Doesn't that equally apply to the Premier League?? Or any League come to that ?
  17. Arsenal are the real victims of Micheal Oliver's decisions!!! The Issue There has been increasing concern among our Arsenal supporters community regarding referee Michael Oliver's repeated questionable decisions during matches. Over the years, this has led to a prevailing sentiment that his calls may lack impartiality. Our suspicions sadly continue to grow as we observe consistent patterns of decisions going against us. According to Opta Stats, nine decisions have been made against Arsenal under Oliver's officiating, the highest for any Premier League club. The implications of these decisions are detrimental to our beloved team's fairness and integrity in this sport. The time has come to confront this issue. Therefore, we must call upon the Football Association to launch a thorough, unbiased investigation into these allegations. By doing so, we trust that they will uphold the values of fair play, impartiality, and professionalism that the sport demands and deserves. Sign the petition to support the call for justice.!!
  18. that's true, the red card did him favour and stopped Citeh from farting around with the ball and go more direct
  19. As Noel Gallagher said today, the perfect end to the day was hearing that Citeh's goal should have been ruled out !! Now that's the correct attitude of a proper football fan !
  20. The only thing SKY are concerned about is whether Spurs should be given our PL trophy
  21. Carrick being criticised by a United fan for just standing there with his " hand on his chin" 😄
