6 pages of unadulterated bollox!
Are you new here?

It's like this all the time.

What? Trying to do something about the crap we have to watch? The way the club are careering downhill? The way we are a fucking laughing stock? Pity from Arsenal fans - I could weep.

The arguing may be bollocks but the intent is genuine.

Don't smash your mouse, I was joking.

I was going to wear this
and go as the loveable Russ Abbot character See You Jimmy, and then thought people will probably think I'm McLeish and kill me.

Will you two turn it the fuck in.

As far as the original post goes, its very difficult to know what to do. You don't want to do anything that damages the club but it has to be highly visual to get them to notice.

Perhaps ten minutes with us all with our back to the game and then rousing support or some such.

My original post was for some positive action - it sort of came out of the reaction to the substitutions at the Fulham game when the boos turned to thunderous applause for the players.

Maybe I am older but not wiser and think that fans can actually affect an institution instead of just being strapped in for the ride like we always have been.


If we were Barcalona (which we aint); they'd do this...  Short link

Peaceful, harmless but very visable. Maybe fans wearing grey/dull colors instead to match the mood is more apt. The absence of any claret & blue color from scarves, replica tops etc from the fan would be a variant on Barca's white flag, but send out a message from the paying fan on the terrace.

My ex-politics teacher, mate, and top Villa fan Jammy was labelled with that monkier for years for going out with his bird who was 4 years younger than him.

When i was a student, and all of 18 years old, I had a girlfriend who was 16 (almost 17, mind), and took so much stick from my house mates calling me Len Fairclough and doing that "swimming with one hand doing the normal thing, and the other doing a fingering motion" that I had to bin her.
