But 100% arsenal fans are a different bread to the rest

I think that too. The arrogant, entitled, deluded end to the opening paragraph is superb.

A lot to like, but those supporters…

Post by: PeterWithe on February 19, 2023, 10:35:38 AM: My walk back takes me past the away coach park, I had to smile at one fella who was striding up to the metal fence shouting in a cod cockney accent about Brummie Mugs before being scolded by what looked like his Mum who wanted to get on her coach. Bless.

I love Arsenal fans, it’s like they’ve read a book, written by an American, on how football supporters should behave.

I think they have a great side and Odegaard might just be player of the season but the fan base is an embarrassment to football supporters.

Post by: Rico on February 19, 2023, 11:02:02 AM: Leaving early after the F.A. Cup Final sums them up. I couldn't believe it. Embarrassing really.

Yep Odegaard was absolute quality along with Jorginho.

Trossard looks very good as well, he was an absolute steal.
