So there I was Monday night and hadn’t seen my beloved Arsenal in action for 10 days, so I was getting my fix by watching ‘Arsenal legends’ on Arsenal TV, no big deal, it was Malcolm MacDonald and it showed how he was signed by Dennis Hill-Wood in 1976 (I think) – it went through his career where he scored over 40 goals in 80 games, then came the commercial break and up pops Dave, with his frozen peas, what? It was the commercial that Arsenal run trying to get you to use their banking system for tickets when you yourself can’t go.
He had what we all dream off, he was shopping in a supermarket, I guess it was one of Stans and he was transported from the aisles of the shop to the terraces of the Grove, then when he realises where he now was, began cheering like a banshee and waving his frozen peas around, I know we are not allowed flags, but judging by this amazing commercial, we are allowed to wave around frozen peas.
Then Samir Nasri scored (against West Brom) and he (Dave) and the rest of the crowd went ballistic. All good fun you think? No, what I noticed was through the whole commercial, the entire section were standing up, not just for the goal, but for the whole ad, yes standing up, where the hell were the stewards? And where in the ground was this? So when I said terraces, I meant seats, they just looked like terraces, because no-one was sitting down.
So unless it was a complete howler, did the powers that be think the unthinkable? That there is more atmosphere when people stand up? Was it because if the crowd were sitting and politely clapping it would have looked and sounded crap?
Dave you are a hypocrite, you were breaking the Arsenal stewarding rules, waving a pea flag and standing up. I don’t think I can go anymore if this sort of bad behaviour is condoned, I mean it’s downright dangerous, what are they thinking? what about crowd safety and the fact these people are spoiling everyone else’s enjoyment with their riotous behaviour.
Shame on you Arsenal, is this a case of wanting your cake and in fact eating it?
Then I studied all their commercials and all of them show the crowd on their feet cheering, how bizarre. Not a one where people are sitting.
Other news is that Stan just bought 5000 of Danny’s shares, if he wanted 5000 more shares would it not have made sense to buy Nina’s and take them out of circulation? Will somebody explain the logic of that transaction to me?
Anyway I’m thinking of taking copius amounts of frozen peas with me to the next home game and a video clip of the ad to show to the stewards and saying that Arsenal advertise this kind of yobbish behaviour, so it’s okay for me to do it, after all, if Dave can do it, why the hell can’t the rest of us, and given our next away kit will be green, frozen peas seem like the order of the day.
Feel free anyone from Arsenal to comment on my observations if you would, nay, if you can.
The liars from Hull city have now entered their evidence against Cesc, so let’s hope that after looking at this stuff, 5 minutes later they will diss it for the shit it really is and apologise to our great captain.
I think the least that should happen is to dock them 3 points and relegate them.
Have a great day Grovers and don’t forget to bring your frozen vegetables to the next home game, Arsenal encourage it, but mind where you wave them, they can be dangerous and there are a lot of meat eaters out there that could take offence, and we don’t want that, do we…
