I was watching Sky Sports last night, it was the trio of Merson, Smith and Parlour, 9,11 and 13 year Arsenal players, boy they were the days, I remember seeing all three make their debuts, I loved them all and not because they were English, but because they were Arsenal to the core, and still are.
They said there was never more than £50 between the top earner and the lowest paid, but they said they were paid a win bonus that doubled their salary, and that was why they fought so hard to win games, I know we have a win bonus, but perhaps the basic should be lower and the bonus higher, maybe that would incentivise them better, or maybe they wouldn’t sign in the first place.
Parlour also told a story of the squad arriving at Liverpool (I think) the team went to the changing rooms and the rest to the bar, after 4 pints Stewart Housten came into the bar and told Parlour to get his kit on as he was now playing, Andy Linighan said ‘can he at least finish his pint?’ Imagine that now? There weren’t many players playing for us that had Parlour’s passion, pissed or sober!
It seems that we have at last signed Squillaci, but I cannot understand why that business couldn’t have been taken care of in May?
It does seem that Schwarzer is not coming, so go and get Given, we know he wants to come, we want him, what we don’t want is Almunia and Fabianski not least because all these offers we made Fulham, it certainly shows what we think of them and if we don’t sign a keeper quickly, we’re screwed, in which case I would sooner take a chance on Chezzer. We’re also rumoured to be in for the Landreau.
Almunia was still flapping at crosses and had weak punching problems again against Blackpool, so he hasn’t improved a jot, Fabianski must live in a bubble because he thought he had a great game when he shipped 3 against Legia.
So Arsene get out there and get a keeper, Given would do very nicely, but if not, then anyone.
Have a great day Grovers, it’s Pedro for the weekend!
P.S. We still have 3 spares going for Blackburn away, e-mail in sharpish if you’d like those. We also have 4 seated together for the WBA game at home. E-mail in from the contacts —>>>>
Our good freind and long term Grover Rico has changed club and moved over to a new residence at Highbury House, check out her thoughts and drop a comment to say hi!
Stats:
We haven’t beaten Fat Sam away since 2002!
Thats me
kwikfit are you new to this blog?
Maybe she is DOP. I wouldnt know. You better ask her yourself.
Peds how do you subscribe to goonernews
How did you know imma gal stu?
I didnt want to go to that blog because of the amount of comments telling me to go there. I’ll go there if i want, not because someone is forcing me to.
I didnt.
Don’t let him off that easy Stu that DOP fella is bang out of order. He said me have no brainy
i hope wilshire will stay on the bench against blackburn..atleast a super sub for cesc

Time to kick back, drink, watch and be merrrrrrrry
Bank holidays – gotta love’em
I googles it and nothing came up for it so i guess i’ll never see that blog now. Oh well…
*GoogleD
Well i am and you have NO RESPECT FOR A WOMEN!
Why google it when i gave you the link?
LOL I have no respect for women and you’re the one who called my mother a slut.
Jesus, that’s a long time ago, choy. But koscielny is a great defender and will eat the strikers of blackburn, the only thing that scares me are the set-pieces and our GK. But we have to win this game if we don’t win than we are out of the titel race. Believe me, we will come back but will never win the title if we are going to lose this game, then we are already 5 points behind the chavs.
I think DOP is jay. A Women
Idiot you called his mother a whore. What’s going on here tonight? Lets talk about a goalie any goalie.
You forced me to. Wtf jay?
Really? Because i see no link. Maybe you did it wrong. I mean, you are a woman after all.
do u prefer gay
I’am scared of the set=pieces and our GK but we have to win this game. If we don’t win then we are already out of the title race, then we are 5 points behind chelsea in just three games. So….
choy-we havent beat fatsam previous teams away or blackburn away since 2002..llast time i remembered we beat blackburn away with 10 men..diaby was sent off..henry scored a goal
I think you may be right Sixx Pac. I thought Jay was gay though, not a woman? Isnt Jay always trying to seduce Incesc last at night?
click on his name stu.
DOP… can we stop this nonsense and talk about footie?
Here is the link
http://gunzontherun.wordpress.com
I am a women….pfff
It’s funny usually a woman who digs football does it for me
Gilberto was sent off at Ewood Park, for a kick out at Savage i think, when we won 2-0 from Toure and Henry goals. Not Diaby.
that was bolton cesc ….
and we beat them 3-2… megson was in charge!
I do not think this talk is for me. perhaps i should find a new blog!
Nah Sixx Pac, i think i’ll give it a pass now.
Ok Choy. Do you feel we have the physical power now to compete with Fat Sam’s men?
Out the title race after 3 games? Thats a bit much no Dutchman.
Sorry, im mixing matches up. Fat Sam wasnt at blackburn during that match.
it wasnt lastt season..but a couple seasons ago..way back 2007 i think
perhaps
Yeah Marko and i’m pretty good at it too
?
I remember Cesc that was a great game. down to ten men and i knew we would pull it off.
stu- ok,,so fat sam has good record against us..shite…i remembered he gave us a hard time at the reebok stadium, us against bolton..
Didnt we beat Bolton in the cup 3-1 when we missed 2 penalties…or was that a different score? I remember the match went to extra time and Gilberto and Baptista missed a pen each. I think Ljungberg scored. Anyone remember which match that was?
I just read that stat on Arse.com.. so I think its right.
DOP..
You know how Fat Sam sets his team up against Arsenal.. they try to physically overpower us.
I think we will do better this time around!
Marko’s dissing u DOP. He’s saying ur a woman who loves footy but doesnt turn him on. Post a pic to redeem urself
Fuck Fat Sam, Fuck Blackburn. Come on you Goonerrrzzzzzz!!!
dop-yeah…and henry’s goal was sublime..as always…far up corner of the goal..
Didn’t we usually beat them at home though and pick up some draws away. Not really a thorn in our side anymore
Fat Samuel saying that he’s not gonna change his rugby style
marko – yeah..its been awhile like tht..hopefully we win..
obviously he’s not going to change his style.. thats the only style he has…

Hello DOP
if only diaby can defend well on corners…
Gooby,
And if only AA would do some fitness training.
And if only AW would buy an Arsenal quality keeper.
In the meantime, lets grab three northern three points.
Goon to the Moon.
Ooops. That’ll be three points!
NEW POST!
A goalkeeper and a striker. And a lovely morning
it is.
