The difference between Sol Campbell and William Gallas

Harry Redknapp has today claimed that Tottenham have got one over Arsenal by signing William Gallas.

“He knows he is going to get some flak from the Arsenal fans but his signing is one-up for us. Tottenham fans should be thinking, ‘Hang on, we have got one over on them here’.”

Whoa, whoa, whoa there twitchy! What? What? What?????!?!

Firstly, let me just clear up one thing for Tottenham fans, and more importantly Mr Redknapp, we never wanted to keep hold of Gallas.

Don’t get me wrong, he was a quality player, and I’m not going to slag him off after joining Tottenham. But the fact is, Arsene Wenger wasn’t convinced he had it in him, and pretty much every mediocre club in Europe turned him down before he opted for Spurs.

The difference between William Gallas and Sol Campbell is that Campbell was an absolute Tottenham legend at the time, and they did all they could to keep him. Also, at the time, he was possibly the best centre-back in England. Tottenham haven’t signed this sort of player.

I actually wish Gallas well, because I’ve always had a soft spot the player, regardless what many Arsenal fans think of him. He was a great player for Chelsea, and a scapegoat at Arsenal. And, he had a decent final season for us. But sadly to say, we’ve seen the best of William Gallas. The time has come to put his feet up and take it easy for a season or two. I’m surprised he didn’t sign for New York Red Bulls to be fair.

Harry Redknapp also went onto say that Patrick Vieira was keen to play for Tottenham last season. Again, he is a player who was no longer wanted by Arsene Wenger, and last season’s performances for Man City proved Wenger right once again.

Good luck at your new club Mr Gallas.

  1. Laughing Spur

    Never wanted him? Why did you offer him a contract extension then?

  2. Maccers

    Arse offered Big Willie a new contract. He is on less money at spurs than that new contract :/

  3. Don’t believe all you read in The Sun. Arsenal never wanted him.

  4. We’d already focused on Koscielny, and Gallas was to be a bit-part player. We didn’t want him basically.

  5. tryme

    we didnt do everything we could to keep campbell he said he was going to stay and sign a new contract but he didnt he wanted it to run out so he could go on a free transfer because he is a judus and the only reason we got gallas and no one else did is because he finally gave in to a ONE YEAR DEAL we offered him you idiot get your facts right

  6. Why is this article going out to Tottenham fans?!?! I thought this was only published on NewsNow Arsenal!
    I’m going to have some words with NewsNow about this.

  7. arse are kunts

    Arse are kunts going to win a trophy this year?

  8. @arse are kunts. Yeah, I think so.

  9. Murph_77

    Can I just raise a valid point, why are other teams supporters so into Spurs at the moment? We are getting slated from all sides! Livepool fans have suddenly started to pipe up, I feel there are too many sour grapes going around. Enjoy the view of Spurs higher than you in the league come May ’11.

  10. Laughing Spur

    Maybe Gallas realised he could win more in one season at Spurs than he could manage in 5 years at the scum?

  11. @Laughing Spur, do you think he thought the same thing when he left Chelsea?? Yep!
    Murph_77, I’d like to know why these Tottenham and Liverpool fans are reading my articles! It’s an embarrassment.
    BTW, I knew a Tottenham fan called Murph and he was probably born in ’77. You didn’t ever play football over at Hendon with the Arsenal boys did you? If not, ignore this. If yes, then what a small world!

  12. Good to be a GOONAH!!

    Gallas cartoon. Comedy gold.

    I think this sums up the situation for Laughing sp*r quite nicely

  13. Ghod

    So Wenger didn’t want to keep him? You may want to read the last paragraph then edit your blog…….

    By Nick Teale
     
    Arsène Wenger has put contract talks with William Gallas on hold so that he can focus on forthcoming fixtures. However, the Frenchman is confident the centre-back will be an Arsenal player next season.
     
    Gallas is out of contract in the summer but talks are ongoing to renew his deal.
     
    But with important Premier League matches and both legs of the Champions League Quarter-Final with Barcelona to come over the next few weeks, Wenger has turned his attention to strictly on-pitch matters.
     
    “There is no update [on Gallas' contract talks],” said Wenger at his pre-match press conference on Thursday. “In the next two or three weeks we will not deal with any contract because we have games every three days and we will focus on our targets.
     
    “I feel we are winning the battle to keep him but in this domain you have to be open and be ready for anything.
     
    “He is in a position where he is free to sign for anybody he wants and tomorrow somebody could come up and offer him a massive amount of money and I don’t know if he will sign or not.
     
    “He knows we want to keep him and that we make an effort but it has to be, as it always has been historically, within our set budget.”

  14. @Good to be a GOONAH!! – Brilliant! :) :)

  15. Do you really think Wenger is going to come out and say “We didn’t want to keep Gallas because he is an ageing centre-back, and he’s past his best”? Of course he’s not. Ever the diplomat, he’s used his words carefully and treated Gallas with a little respect.

  16. Clockwork

    Hang on a minute.Gallas was always a good footballer that has never been in doubt.

    Arsene is a good manager that has also never been in doubt.

    Harry has proven to be a good manager but in a different way,he has a track record of ‘putting his arm around a player’ and making them believe in them selves and play better.This we have seen with pretty much every Lillywhite in the current squad.Stuff the media reports ask the players and also look at last seasons results.

    Im backing Harry to do the same with Gallas and as he is not coming in as captain nor the big ‘star’ I reckon Harry will be able to do the same.Galla will benefit from just being a squaddie and a damn good one.

    Lets hope we get into the CL proper and all concerned have a good season.

    I for one one reckon Big Willie will have a great time at the lane and a certain Stewie Griffin lookalike at Man City will be asked at the end of season why he was lured to Rich/Poor Mancs on a free?

    Lets all have some fun and enjoy the forthcoming season.WG certainly will!

  17. People may be supporting Spurs because it’s effectively the England side…and look how far that gets you.

    As for Gallas, we did want him, but not enough to offer a multi-year contract. His attitude has never matched his ability. So, he decided he’d try his luck, almost certainly thinking that the world would come begging for his services.

    Several months later, in desperation he jumps to Spurs. A coup? Hardly. But a good signing. I like Spurs as *someone* needs to take fifth or seventh place each season. They keep the “almost good” spots warm.

  18. NORTHSPUR

    “The time has come to put his feet up and take it easy for a season or two”

    So are you saying sol should have done the same when you resigned him ? milk turned quicker.

    Lets face it you wanted to keep him on the cheap which was disrespectful and he walked away.

    What i can not work out is why so many arse sites are posting blogs about it WHY ?

  19. Yido

    What an intelligent rational and great reasoning. We took your captain and we’re on our way up… just the beginning of a turning tide Spurs are ready to become the dominant force in North London football :)

  20. Clockwork

    I for one one reckon Big Willie will have a great time at the lane and a certain Stewie Griffin lookalike at Man City will be asked at the end of season why he was NOT lured to Rich/Poor Mancs on a free?-Sorry guys massive typo.

    Its been a few after work sort of evening!

  21. NORTHSPUR

    @Matt Asay

    How many spurs players PLAYED in the world cup ? as i recall defoe was joint leading goal scorer and any player would love to have peters record for England.

    As for keeping 5th warm did you miss our top 4 finish or the hiding we gave you to get there

  22. Keith Adair

    Arsscum fans moaning again……. Get your facts right you woolwich *anker

  23. LIDY

    He’s Spurs now – as much as we hate his lineage, we’ll respect the shirt.

    Bitter goons: Get over it; free agent, no poaching involved, no mega bucks. You say he’s shit, we’ll wait and see

  24. @Yido, you’ve been saying that for as long as I’ve lived to be honest mate. This is the best time for a Tottenham fan to be fair. Two games into the season, and still mathematically possible to finish above Arsenal. Aaaaaaaaahh.

  25. “Harry has proven to be a good manager but in a different way,he has a track record of ‘putting his arm around a player’ and making them believe in them selves and play better”

    Really??? Who has he done this with? Gareth Bale is the only player who was dogshit and turned out ok.

    What about Keane? Bentley? Dos Santos? Jenas? Crouch? Bassong? Palacios? Hutton? Give me a break, they’ve all been shithouse.

  26. Simon

    He left a stale club for a club going places..COYS

  27. Ardian

    Well it cannot be compared the situation between Campbell and Gallas. Campbell was real deal, the center half wanted from anyone. He decided to come to us. Gallas on the other hand is a mediocre player that if Wenger wanted to keep him he would offer him something more. Gallas thought he can find better deal but soon was disillusioned and caught the last train called Yidos (the land of abandoned). Thus, best thing from the Gooners side would be to ignore him completely, just to show him he isn’t worth of any chant.

  28. I really didn’t want this to turn into loads of Tottenham fans banging on about how their club are going forward. I really didn’t. If anymore Tottenham fans indicate towards their club “going places”, or challenging for one of the big trophies, then your comment is going to be deleted.
    If you have nothing sensible to say, then please don’t say it.

  29. Welcome back KK. I’m actually starting to like you. Strangely.

    You may be best to delete the whole post as you clearly are not intersted in what others have to say

  32. NORTHSPUR, I’m not going to delete comments! That was tongue in cheek. I don’t delete comments, it’s not my scene! :) I believe the banter is best when it’s left wide-open. :) I only delete the comments which are very, very uncalled for.

  33. wondrinfree

    I liked Gallas I thought his desperation to win and intolerance to complacency where admirable. Unfortunately he seemed to isolate himself from every team he played for. Maybe he will develop some diplomacy, maybe the couple of years he’ll get at Spurs won’t cause division and upset in the squad. But I suspect the inner passion that makes him such a good footballer also makes him hard to work with and losing one will lose the other. great individual though.

  34. Yido6061

    Face facts arscum your shit Gallas is nothing like that judas cu*t Campbell

  36. jimbo

    you’re right. this doesn’t compare to sol in any way. no transfer between spurs and arsenal ever will because there will never be another lying devious treachorous scumbag like him playing for either of our clubs again. at least I hope so for both our sakes. he single handedly destroyed my, and a lot of peoples, ability or faith to have any individual player as a hero, because they’ll always let you down. it’s been all about tottenham since then. individuals come and go, including gallas.

  37. every gunner is a runner

    What i want to know is when are arsenal gonna win something….ha…there is only one true north london team…tottenham hotspur,,,you lot make me laugh,you come from sarf landon and you even get gillespie road tube changed to arsenal tube,you lot are a joke and you are finished,gallas saw his oppourtunity and realised spurs are on the up,you`ve had you day scum,now do one,we took the north bank highbury

    I would like to quote guardian commentary of game with young boys “29 mins The Spurs fans inside the Stade Suisse look totally dumbfounded. Who knew there was footballing life outside the Premier League?” ahahahahahaha

  40. KK

    Thanks Puff.

    On a sensible note though. The Gallas situation is nothing like the Campbell situ. Campbell was in hbis prime, a ‘so-called’ Tottenham fan from a kid, came through the ranks, became our captain and went to our biggest rivals on a free at a point where we needed him the most.

    The only comparable fact between now and then is that Gallas has been your captain at some point. I feel the Spurs fans will accept Gallas because:

    a) need a fit centre back
    b) his links with Arsenal are minimal compared to Campbells links to Tottenham.

    I thought I might be able to have a bit of proper North London Banter without it all getting a bit sweary and rubbish.Shame mate as this comment

    By the way, why was the emirates half empty before the end of the on saturday? call yourself fans? glory hunting good time charlies enjoying football with the proles, eating prawn sandwiches before going to the opera. you think they’ll be there subsidising your club when don’t qualify for the chumps league?

  46. lol. Rubbish site… Didnt think my comments were working!

  47. Soonago

    Gallas is a good signing for Spurs and we’ll see who is the better team at the end of the season on the games played and won, not opinions on websites…but you do know that Spurs are not the team they were a few seasons ago, you know that cos we dicked you when you needed to win and we will this season…btw Sol Campbell was never about his ability it was the fact that he was a greedy dishonest player who gave nothing back to the club that brought him through and lined his own pockets…honestly great in the air but awful when the ball was on the floor and that was for every team he played for….

  48. Yido

    Goons its sour grapes, here’s a tune for you…..

    Will Gallas Wooooao,
    Will Gallas Wooooao,

    Will Gallas Woooooao……….

    Why have Spurs fans all of a sudden got such a big voice??! Saying Wenger never wins anything i ridicukous. Think about what he has achieved in the game, what he has done with little money and building a new stadium. purs will forever liv in the shadows of Arsenal. What gives you Spurs mugs the right to say we dont win anything?! What have you won!!?? ooooo… Carling Cup!! ahhhhh! You think coming 4th is the winning the league! You are all dilusional and suddenly very cocky!! I cant wait to see you fall

  50. scottpuffin

    Clockwork, I wasn’t abusive or resorting to insults mate. Shithouse is just another word for poor. You can’t deny that the players I’ve mentioned haven’t been.
    KK, I’m one of the few Arsenal fans who actually rated. Gallas.

  51. jimbo

    little money? are you joking? the teams he won stuff with COST MONEY. he only wins when he spends.

  52. Ghod

    LOL
    if Wenger didn’t want to keep him why did he even bother to make the statement :s
    Or are you saying that Wenger “didn’t see” him leaving

  53. jimbo

    if we fail we fail, but at least we’ll be there to cheer our team of the pitch at the end of the game. unlike you part timers.

  54. Yido

    by the way puffin you’re clearly a prick

  55. furious_gooner

    Bloody hell, u spurs c*unts cant get enough of yourselfs. Gallas looked far and wide for a club all over europe before deciding to settle for a 2nd rate club with false hope after one decent season. and as for KK. at least our gaffer doesnt look like hes constantly having a stroke, u monkey tit splat.

  56. jimbo

    you keep telling yourself that furry-arse gooner.

  57. Yido

    furious goon, most players do keep theyre options open when it comes to finding a new club. But where is the proof he looked far and wide around europe? There isnt any lol.. dumb ass… You’re furious??? Why because we took your captain!!! hahahahah

  58. Bob – Big voice? your from the library, surely everybody who dont support the scum sound like they have a big voice to you.

  59. jimbo

    the reason our ‘gaffer’ looks like ‘hes(sic) constantly having a stroke’ is the result of a car crash during italia ’90 in which one of his friends died. funny eh? you twat

  60. scottpuffin

    Yido, don’t mac yourself off like a two-bob mate.
    Jimbo, the ‘invincibles’ didn’t cost that much.
    Lehmann £1.5m
    Lauren £6m
    Toure £400,000
    Sol £0
    Cole £0
    Ljungberg £3m
    Gilberto £4m?
    Vieira £3.5m
    Pires £7m
    Bergkamp £7.5m
    Henry £11m

    Is that really an expensive team?

  61. Clockwork

    ‘What about Keane? Bentley? Dos Santos? Jenas? Crouch? Bassong? Palacios? Hutton? Give me a break, they’ve all been shithouse.’

    ScottPuffin-Fair enough but your not completly correct….

    Bassong is a good player-Not everyones taste but better under H ,Bentley is impossible to manage …ask Arsene,although he came good-Arguably better than anywhere apart from during a purple patch at Blackburn.
    Crouch has been good for us-Got the goal that got us into forth against Stewie Griffins assembled billionairs.

    Gio had a great world cup and has been good for us so this season so that don’t count ;-) As for Palacious I think he is one of the main reasons we finished fourth.

    Hutton I will give you!

    YOu can see how and why WG was singed though can’t you?

    Do you not wish that Arsene would sign the odd over the hill player to bolster your side? I think ( at the risk of lynching from other Spurs) fans you have a great side but with the addition of some more experience you would do so much better-Remember when you lost Flamini,Gilberto etc how you suffered in the middle of the park?

    I was well chuffed when they left and your side suffered.

    Al Harry is doing is signig good players to bolster a good side.Possibly a great side

    Only time will tell but Im well happy-I hope you are :-) !!!!

  67. jimbo

    You mean the invicibles that lost more games that season than man utd? 9ic. cup games) you’re not taking wages into account. sol on 100k cost you a lot. but no, it’s not a great fortune to be fair, but still serious money. £13m for wiltord? 14m(?) for arshavin. it’s a myth that wenger builds his team on the cheap. even you’re supposed youth team that we battered 5-1 in the semi had 2 world cup winners and MORE first team appearances between them than our supposed first team. wenger’s been living on myth and reputation for a few years now.

  71. scottpuffin

    Clockwork. I hear you matey.
    Don’t get me wrong, all Arsenal fans would love more experience in the side, but the signings of Chamakh (26), and potentially Squillachi (30) and Schwarzer (37), we look to be rectifying that.
    I am not doubting the ability of gallas. I think he’s quality.
    But I am arguing the illusion of Harry believing that Tottenham have got one over Arsenal. If you’d have signed Fabregas, Van Persie or Vermaelen then I’d say you got one over us :)

  72. Izzy

    Lol at tiny spuds! gallas spent the whole summer finding a better club but no one wanted to pay him more than dodgy harry!! No wonder Fabiano called you a small club!! Forever in our shadow!

    i was at a wedding at weekend, we were outside the pub a gang of us were drinking an my mate is also a spurs fan, then a little kid fell off hes small bike he must of been no more then 3 years old, my mate then says hes cryin hope hes all right, then my reply was who cares hes wearing an ars*nal jersey

    so called top club, no cups in 4 years……
    maybe ye should lower ur standards as cearly ur not the big team ye are made out to be no chance in winning league or Cl but still believe, and you call us deluded

  76. Biggooner

    Step 1: gallas wants longer contract for more money that we did not think he was worth.

    Step 2: gallas pimps himself across continental Europe with no success.

    Step 3: gallas returns to England, lowers expectations a lot, and signs for spuds.

    Now….if any of you stinking, illiterate, inbred spud fans don’t understand…I can always repost in LARGE PRINT

  77. Still going on about the invincibles Scott. I dont consider you title contenders anymore and if your honest neither do you. Yep that is some achievement by Wenger – I mean to somehow (keep a straight face) keep you lot referring to him as god when actually he shouldnt be in a job

  98. Gooner

    FOYS.

    Not ever club who beats you is good. You yids should know that…shit club….

    Keep going for our rejects….that’ll make you god….haha….GOT to laugh.

    WE WON THE LEAGUE…..AT SHITE HART LANE (TWICE)

    I was there and loved it….come back and talk to me when youre anywhere near that you fools.

    FOYS.

  99. coys

    if he wasnt deemed good enough by in wenger we trust, why offer him a contract, bitter gunners casue we have nice very good squad player much better then judas sol

  100. I’ve deleted a couple of comments. Banter is all good, but some comments from Tottenham and Arsenal fans have been deleted. Sorry if these comments were taken the wrong way chaps.
    Now onwards with the banter.

  101. Gooner

    Wait a second….just seen a headline…..Redknapp is after Pires…..

  102. Gooner by soul, I like to give them their 4-5 months of the season where they actually believe they can actually challenge for something worth winning.

  103. george

    can someone tell me when Spurs last finished above Arsenal.Or have they ever?not being funny I am just not that old

  104. mark paul hooker

    spurs v wigan saturday on general sale.
    arsenal have not had a league game not sell out in 14 years.

  105. Gooner

    YOU DONT HAVE A BEST PLAYER!!!

    FOYS

  106. I’m old enough George. I can confirm that they have never finished above us in 137 years of professional football.

  107. Gooner

    AS I SAID EARLIER MARK….SHIT FANS.

    FOYS.

  108. morten

    come on an arsenal site and you deserve what you get? some jumped up bellend spouting off about auschwitz etc? i thought arsenal and tottenham were football teams not political parties!?!?! I AM A FUCKING GOONER YOU BERK AND YOU ARE A FECKLESS TWAT OF A LET DOWN TO EVERY ONE OF US!!!! GO AND SUPPORT A MOB LIKE MILLWALL YOU BORDERLINE MENTALLY HANDICAPPED CUMBUCKET!

  109. coys

    you alos lost the league at white hart lane…..2-1, also were at white heart lane when we hammered u 5-1 of wait, you prob left the building

  110. Morten, I agree mate. I’ve deleted all of the offensive comments. Sorry about that chaps, I try and catch them as quick as I can.

  111. george

    On a serious note,Galas is a good player but I think he would be 4th choice this season had he been offered a contract that didn’t insult him to the degree that he lost face and fucked off

  112. coys

    arse go on about thety history as they present is pointless an boring an going no where fast

  113. Yido6061

    Puffy deleting comments can’t take a bit of stick lol Coys

  114. Gooner by soul

    well well we may be trying to find a keeper only but spuds need a whole squad bcoz ur wonder manager has crappiest rejected load of all clubs be it bentley ( from whom we still earn and actually waiting for u guys to sell him so that we make some more money) or that wonder boy dos santos……..then home sick boy keane……n one question to you punk spud faggets that if you are this good than arsenal then why it is first time you are even playing a qualifier for champs league …… na shit load of players supported by bunch of faggets …… and what happened to your sugar daddy my Levy did he ran out of money no big transfers…spuds going for free agents…….or did he realised there is point in spending money on a shitty slum call spuds………

  115. furious_gooner

    The last 20 or so posts have demonstrated perfectly the difference in class between the two clubs. The mighty Arsenal are expected (and rightly so) to challenge for major honours every season. where as spurs win the odd league cup and make it into the champions league for the first time and all of a sudden their world beaters??

    Absolute bollocks

  116. coys

    bitter bitter gunners, 4th choice instead og who…….

  117. @coys, we lost the league well before the game at WHL. Mathamatically yes, but realistically no. As fo the 5-1 defeat. You still banging on about a Carling Cup game??!?!
    Was you at WHL when we won the league?
    BTW, we won the Emirates Cup a few weeks ago, so it’s not been 5 years. Fuck it, if you’re taking the Carling Cup, then I’m taking the Emirates Cup.

  118. coys

    “The mighty Arsenal are expected (and rightly so) to challenge for major honours every season” have you ever come close i think not,

  119. @Yido6061, I deleted a couple of comments from an Arsenal fan, and from you. Because they were racist mate. It was nothing to do with me getting stick!! I’m not French or Jewish!

  120. Izzy

    Fuck off smelly yids! You finish in top 4 so what? You only ended up attracting your rival rejects. And next is dolphin head diarra!!? :-)

  121. furious_gooner

    “have we ever come close”?? what planet are you living on mate? most of us on here were not even born the last time spurs did anything of relervence

  122. Yido

    puffin if you’re talkin ‘realisticaly’ then you know you may as well as well publicly resign your self to the fact that there aint no title going to you this season and quite possibly no top 4

  123. jimbo

    noone’s told me why the emirates was half empty on saturday well before the end of the game.

    Arsenal: the only club ever in the history of english football to play in the top league and NOT EARN THE RIGHT TO DO SO ON THE FOOTBALL PITCH but rather through corrupt cheating chairman. Blackpool, Wigan, Reading, every team that has ever played in the top league, have earned the right to be there. not like you cheating corrupt bastards.

  124. jimbo

    we didn’t pay pay arshavin what he asked for. does that make him our reject?

  125. furious_gooner

    well ure manager knows all about being a chating corrupt bastard…

  126. Champion

    We did want Gallas, but not desparately. He is a good player but I am not upset as he is past his prime.

    I will cheer his name when its read out at the Emirates because thick Spurs haven’t been able to get one over the gunners this decade. Sol was Spurs captain, he walked away on free, at the height of his career (understandably) because he knew Spuds were second rate!

    Gallas is desparate – I am sure he frantically tried to ask if he could have the original deal offered to him months ago, but Ivan was having none of it and wouldn’t let him on to the premises.

    I’ll even cheer for ‘arry, finally a member to start his Arsenal tribute team. So he tried Henry, Vieira, Pires, Flamini, Hleb, Baptista and finally got someone to sign. It will be Silvestre next.

    Spuds big day tomorrow – I know most of you are up tonight fretting and so you should. I reckon we are in for some comedy gold. Hopefully there will be a DVD out soon.

  127. Yido

    arsharvin fairly overrated anyway, hes a bit limited but you love him

  128. @Yido, I’ll guarantee we finish in the top 4 this season, AGAIN!
    If you’re honest with yourself, and you put pride to one side then you know that we will be challenging for the title along with Chelsea and Man United, and you boys will be fighting for 4th place with Man City. Let’s be honest for one moment, and put rivalries aside. You know it’s the truth.

  129. Yido6061

    Morton couldn’t have put the above comment better myself

  130. jimbo

    so were agreed that all your titles are tainted by the fact you cheated to get into the first division. that’s progress at least.

  131. coys

    no shame in beating afull strrenth team in beatin chelsea for the cup…better then nothing, compared u wining a pre season cup says it all an sumes it up……

  132. @Yido6061, you just battered me for deleting the comment from that fan!! Make your mind up mate.

  133. jimbo

    You know it’s the truth

  134. Michael McCarthy

    We both have good teams. I hope Young Boys finish the job. Gallas is one of you now so why like him.

  135. coys

    yer most success in last 5 years was gettin to carling cup final an semi final, a cup is a cup + it was such the carling cup….whe did wenger risk bringin on aday an cesc for such a meangless cup ????????

  136. coys, we won the Emirates Cup. It’s about as prestigious as the Carling Cup. As of now, it’s a trophy as far as I’m concerned. So, you should change your comments from ‘you haven’t won a trophy for 5 years’ to ‘you haven’t won a trophy worth winning for 5 years’.
    That way, yours has been 49 years since you won a trophy worth winning??!?

  137. Gooner by soul

    well scott you have taken it a diff level now…..on a serious note I would love totts to beat young boys tomorrow being for first time we will have both north london teams in champs league, I just wish both get diff group and a dream will champs league final and trophy coming to north london………..

    also I seeing the harry progress I hope he will be able to challenge chelsea and manu to save there top 4 finish again and hopefully help us by making them loose some points………

    I will surely be cheering for the sake of backyard( totts) tomorrow…….

  138. Yido6061

    Banter taken to far

  139. Yido

    puff…almunia challenging ? I supose you probably see it as your best chance to do something as fabragas will be gone at the end of the season… truth is spurs and arse are about as close as we’ve been in long time and this season we could see a major power shift… don’t get nervous now lol

  140. @coys – ‘a cup is a cup’. Yep, we’ll have the Emirates Cup then. If you’re having a ‘cup’ and counting it as a decent trophy, then so are we.
    So really we haven’t won a trophy for a few weeks.

  141. Champion

    Good to be a Goonah!! that video is hilarious! Too funny, but so true.

  142. Lol

    I come from Africa and i find all this tottenham talk ridiculous,,, who r they . The only London teams anyone outside England ever heard of are Arsenal, Chelsea, Fulham and Westham. Its pretty lame for them to compare themselves to Arsenal. Reading their posts i almost thought the were not from England … their grammar, spelling is pathetic “even for someone from a third world country”. I guess it a club for all drunks, junkies, perverts and all kinds of crazy people.

  143. Yido

    puff league cup has history and every other team in the league wants to win it but u. Emirates cup is a friendly shit cup where u play 3 games… don’t be silly now

  144. Yido, there is not one Arsenal fan who is happy with Almunia. By the sounds of it, he’ll be replaced soon.
    You’ve plucked out the worst player we’ve got and used him as an example of a championship winning side! :) It’s like me telling you that you have no chance of finishing 4th because you have Kaboul and Huddlestone!
    Besides, every top quality team has the odd shit player!
    I agree, it’s the closest you’ve been to Arsenal in a long time. We’re so used to you boys finishing mid table. ;)

  145. coys

    gunner by soul we cant get into the same group u fool we are from same country

  146. @Yido6061, that’s why I deleted the comment mate.
    Onwards with the banter I say! :)

  147. Clockwork

    ScottPuffin

    Fair play-Im going to take the Carling cups-And the peace trophy in Korea which we won a few seasons ago-(it gave us 2 £MILLION!) Therefore a ‘nice little earner!

    Good reposte on the signing of older players-You needed to!

    As for how the season pans out thats in the hands of the Gods to be honest but (providing we get over the potential banana skin tomorrow at the Lane which I think we will r) Im looking forward to the first season in a long time we will be competing in an even keel.The transfer season has still got some legs and im sure we will shuffle around a bit more-H has a habit of bringing in some great signings at the death Krankjer anyone?

    So for me I fancy us for the first time to compete with you lot and at the end of the season we should compare results.Not only league position but cup progress and all trophy’s considered etc.Maybe we can add to our superior European record…..

    Also we will be the only non league team to win the FA Cup-Thast never going to be repeated!-Good luck have fun and I fancy we might be the North London team to boast this time next year-Who knows….!

  148. The difference between Gallas and Campbell is that Billy is, at least, up front but campbell promised to sign at the end of the season but took the bag of gold. not doubting what a good player he was for us and u but no honesty or integrity, an out and out liar. As for Billy he speaks his mind and turned down Arse 80k, Juve and fernabace. then came the french WC debacle and the clubs turned their backs, him having burned his bridges. As for Whinger walking on water with his buys; one springs readily to mind when no club would touch him Whinger payed 8mil for the fab Jeffers, he played two games and the club ditched him. Get it right!

  149. mark paul hooker

    we lost the league at birmingham unless as tottenham fans you hold us in such high esteem that you think we will win 5games by 5goals and one by 6.thats what we would have needed to do to overhaul chelsea.
    your season is compleat if you beat us.
    our goals are higher.
    the fact you are on an arsenal site shows how pathetic you are.
    why do you feel the need to tell us how good you are.
    sounds like a classic case of little man syndrome.
    you have just had your best league season in 43 years and still finished beneath the arsenal who according to the shit cunt media are in crisis.
    class does,nt need to shout it has its own voice.
    bragging rights earn you the need not to have to brag.
    talking of braga. do you remember the night you played them?
    the very same night we had a youth game at the emirates with a bigger crowd
    4,426 more came to watch our youth team than went to watch your 1st team.
    38,000 for a youth game on a night when we had
    a further 3,200 at villa pk watching our 1st team

  150. Clockwork, good banter mate. I would like to wish you luck this season, but for obvious reasons I’m not going to! :)

  151. Yido, I’ve had to delete your last comment. Come on buddy. You’ve behaved relatively well for the last hour or so, don’t let yourself down.
    Keep up the banter mate.

  152. coys

    thudd is class

  153. What’s a ‘thudd’?

  154. Gooner by soul

    scott hopefully they will again advance to carling cup bcoz we play our young guns and these shit loads play first team…may be they dont have anything to play bcoz they know theere place in league table…( dont be so harsh by saying mid table give them 6-7 )…..so let them enjoy there carling cup win which they won once by playing there first team against the U-17 squad ….bcoz thats wht they deserve to face from arsenal ….

    well I was thinking about there super studd team…..there previous star woodgate is gone, there captain king who is decent but cant play all games so I dont know whether he will play champs league or season….then just wonder if bale get injured who will score or play for them….bentley, dos santos, giraff leg crouch…….just wonder….and they think they will win everything……well biggest trophy they ever won and can win will ever be again will be carling cup where youngsters should play but these shit bastards play first team even there ….

  155. Yido

    Puffin don’t post things on newsnow spurs site from arse sites anless you’re going to give equal platforms, its disrespectful, but you are a cheating sly bunch

  156. coys

    ye play yer young guns cause you think u have a chance of wining the league an cl how deluded ius that, and funnt thing is , they are more successful thn first team by gettin to the final and semi final

  157. @Yido. I’m deleting comments that can be construed as racist, or ones which are just totally uncalled for and outright abusive. Surely you can appreciate that.
    I’ve deleted comments from BOTH Arsenal and Tottenham fans, so please don’t make out that I’m just deleting comments from Tottenham fans.

  158. jimbo

    if the league cup is such a nonsense competition and an embarassment to win, why don’t you stand by your beliefs and get it wiped of arsenal’s roll of honour? start a petition. wipe it from your history.

  159. @Yido, your comment was racist towards an African. That is why it was deleted.
    If you want to carry on and accuse me of deleting random comments, then feel free, but your comments will be deleted!
    Now play nicely, and let’s have some lovely Arsenal v Tottenham banter. Let’s not turn it nasty eh?

  160. jimbo

    “scott hopefully they will again advance to carling cup bcoz we play our young guns”

    again, your ‘young guns’ had MORE first team appearances and a very similar average age to the team that beat them 5-1. (look it up if you can bothered) Again, Wenger living in myths and lies.

  161. Clockwork

    Mark Paul Hooker

    Mentioning numbers is about as pointless as me going to a barbers mate-How about this

    1963-European Cup Winners cup-No Gooners=Spurs-5 Aletico madrid 1

    1972-UEFA Cup No Gooners-Spurs beat Wolves 3-2

    1984-UEFA Cup No Gooners Spurs beat Anderlecht

    See what I mean ?

  162. mark paul hooker

    spurs want an even playing field?
    this is the club that have 218 million pound in the debit column since the inception of the champs league.

  163. coys

    fine ok banter, forget the past an what happened, lest talk bout now the present, bout club about there business, arsenal for the league an spurs staying in top 4

  164. Knowledgeable Yid

    This is the difference between sol Campbell and gallas:

    august 4th 2000:”my heart and soul is here and I want to play for spurs. I am going nowhere”

    December 17th 2000: “being a spurs fan as a boy and a player for so many years it would be hard to sign for arsenal. I don’t think the fans here would ever forgive me”

    January 1st 2001: “I want to play for tottenham, that’s it really. I am going no where”

    April 13th 2001: ” I will leave it as late as possible but I sm happy at the moment and that’s the main thing”

    July 3rd sol Campbell signs a free contract at arsenal.

    Oh, by the way Gallas is 3rd choice defender behind king and Dawson. Is he as good as he used to be… Of course not, but we don’t expect him to be and he doesn’t have to be. That’s why he’s 3rd choice, he’s cover and that’s probably it.
    But if you lot think he’s worse in defence than what has been left behind him then I guess it is you who needs a reality check.
    The gap is shorter like it or not.

  165. I actually think you have an outside chance of finishing in the top 4 this season. Straight up, I really do.
    Man City may slip up, and Liverpool have gone downhill. Watch out for Birmingham and Blackburn though.
    I honestly believe you boys could do it this year.

  166. jimbo

    hooker, we’ve won more european trophies than you with far less opportunities… like them numbers?

  167. kiwigooner

    What Spurs have never finished above Arsenal in over 100 years? Are you sure?

    And there was me thinking they were a big club!

    Next you’ll be telling me that they’ve only won 10 trophies in over 100 years!!

    Seems the more they swear the less they say….

  168. 1888

    13 EPL’S …. read it and weep boys “forever in our shadow” ;)

  169. alex chambers

    I am sick of the yiddo mugs piping up on a gooner website what, u got a soft spot for arsenal or something. Also if u would have asked any yid mug how they thought gallas played last season before the signing rumours they all would have said sulking mug and shit. So all you yid mugs put him on ur american soccer shirts

  170. coys

    id rather we fin 4th again this season an get knocked out of group stages fin 3rd or 4th, but form ur point of vire not gettin a decent keeper is shocking, as having top keeper, stops goals

  171. jimmy gooner

    Its a bit rich spud fans coming on and saying arsenal haven’t won anything in years, there shit, spurs are the big boys now!! what exactly have the spuds done that makes them the fooking “big boys” ha ha

    Tell me when exactly was the last time the spuds won the league hmm 61/62??????

    How many times has the spuds played in the champions league in the last ten years hmm zero?

    How many trophies has auld twitchy won in his whole career 1/2????

    the same old every year from the spuds “it’s our year” ha ha

    At the end of the day the one year you actually do win anything or finish above us (wow what an achievement) you will still be a smaller club, still be looking at us with envious eyes!

    Because we are the Arsenal and you will never surpass us.

  172. Yido

    Arse have never won the UEFA cup, poor, unlike Spurs who are one of two clubs club that has one a trophy in every decade since the 50′s. east that arse boy

  173. mark paul hooker

    you see its the no gooners thing that is the problem. i would,nt dream of going on a spurs site larging it because who gives a fuck.
    i am defined by how much i love arsenal not by whats happening at spurs.
    we have won the cup winners cup and the uefa cup[fairs as it was anyway] so what was the point?
    if people come on here and insult our support then they must expect it to be answered.if any gunner was to go on a spurs site with something that had no base in fact i would expect you to send him away with a flea in his ear

  174. @kiwigooner, I was winding them up about that commnet. I’m sure they’ve finished above us a couple of times in 100 years or so.
    Saying that, we’ve always been in the top flight, and they haven’t, so we can take a few years off that.

  175. @coys, you’re either a) using your mobile to type or b) absolutely battered or c) really, really rushing with these responses!! ;)

  176. coys

    13 EPL, since its started i dont thing so as it EPL tarted in the 90′s an oyu won 13 EPL in ur playstation

  177. coys

    im rushing an having a few beers m8 sorry….fucking nerves about young boys

  178. @Yido, we’ve won a trophy every decade since the 30s. Eat that!

  179. @coys – HAHA! Fair play! :)

  180. lilywhitemike

    we sign your captain as a fourth choice centre back haha

  181. Clockwork

    Good point mate-Not too hot on the finances but then ENIC and a certain Mr Lewis seems quite solvent despite a few twists and turns in the recent crash.

    Ah a sugar daddy ( please forgive the irony I know that for a fact on a personal level that they get on well) well id rather a wealthy home grown investor who has been following the club for years yada yada yada that a jonny come lately buy our club for a laugh (Im sure you feel the same way about the Arse)than say a Citeh or a Chelsea.

    I know we hate each other but as clubs there are some parralels that can be drawn looking at how clubs have been financed over the last 10 years.Bring it on sir all I was trying to point out is that numbers can be manipulated in any way we want but the end of this season will be the proof in the eating of the pudding and I for one am really looking forward to my slice so yah boo to you and up the Spurs!

  182. Yido

    Puff, typical johnny come lately gooner who doesn’t know his clubs history you didnt win a trophy in the 60′s.. so you havent won a trophy every decade mate

  183. coys

    we all can abuse, dont think its nice as theres worse things in life, we all can get hot headed an say things in the moment, but at end of the day we are all human an love football an love our own club no matter what, rival is great when keep in the good of the game

  184. @Clockwork, once again I will agree with you mate. Neither club has bought out, yet! And I for one would be disappointed if we were to be bought out. I don’t want Arsenal to ‘buy’ the league, it’s nice to do things the hard way, and the traditional way.

  185. 1888

    funny tho when arsenal finish 4th.. the spuds are telling us we are shit, etc… when they finish 4th… oh holy fuck they party for days jump on and off buses, etc.. oh oh and of course bring out a DVD .. hahaha… “says it all really”.. ;)

  186. coys

    we have adv on fin 4th, feck missed that one…..cya …..brb

  187. @Yido, we did win a couple of trophies in the 60s. In 1966, we won the FA Youth Cup, and in 1968 we won the Emirates Cup. ;)
    @coys, finally a voice of reason. Put it all into perspective. It’s all banter, and that’s all it is chaps. We all love it, and it will never change.

  188. Yido

    1888 lol we’ll be watching a dvd of your demise this season, fabregases dream wave goodbye for barca and us hopefully whipping you too…..i’ll pay good money for any of that and its all likely

  189. Yido

    O ok fa youth cup is a major trophy?? hahaha you better count the ladies honurs then too in which case your kings oopz sorry queens

  190. I don’t mind when Fabregas leaves to joins Barca to be fair. We’ll cash in nicely.
    You boys are going to be as sick as a parrot when the likes of Bale join your parent club Portsmouth.

  191. Yido

    1968 emirates cup are you mad?

  192. Yido, that was part of the joke! :) Sorry you’re not getting me buddy.
    Do you not think it’s funny that you can count the Carling Cup as a trophy, but we can’t count the Emirates Cup or FA Youth Cup? ;)

  193. HAHA Yido. Surely, now you understand that was a joke right??!? :)

  194. Yido

    ok puff now your talking absolute dross, you must be pissed, good banter, ciao and wait for the spurs double over you this season then youll be quaking

  195. coys

    i thought your parent club was man utd lol

  196. coys

    feck our parent club

  197. Yido, I’m not pissed at all, just winding you up mate. :) Glad you got there in the end. Adios matey.

  198. coys

    you wound him it puff

  199. Coys, after your first comment I was trying to think back of all the players Arsenal sold to Man United! That one confused me!! :)

  200. 1888

    aye ok yido you keep telling urself that.. hahaha how many times have yous beat us in the last 10yrs??? run along boy..

  201. Boys, I’m actually off now. I’m knackered.
    Yido, Clockwork, and coys, for Tottenham fans you’re alright. Good banter chaps.
    For Arsenal fans, if you’re still here, keep giving it to ‘em fellas.
    Night all!

  202. kiwigooner

    Ah Scottpuffin, your humour was too sophisticated for me then.

    Though I googled Spurs ( and got 7 hits!) and they have won 17 trophies since 1882 which I think should be applauded.
    Personally they (Spurs) do not really enter my thinking, I’ve supported Aresenal since 1966, because of what they do and what they stand for. Never really understood the hatred for Spurs. Are they even relevent?

    Good blog by the way.

  203. coys

    we beat ye once end of, how many times was i asked that question, to fucking many

  204. Clockwork

    You know a funny thing is as the premiership unfolds I find myself leaning towards clubs that I find interesting.As a commited leftie I have recently become drawn to following ST Pauli in the Bundesliga as I like the cut of their jib.

    Spurs will always be my first love-As a kid in Cheshunt shaking hands with Garth Crooks Steve A, Steve P,Gary M.Meeting Paul G in a pub in Cheshunt and making it a regular thing I am so intrenched with Spurs it will be my only true love but old hates seem harder to keep up when rich morons buy clubs try to instal an instant history and then sell themselves to world.

    Yes the Arse are the enemy and rivals are always going to be there but I find myself cheering on even you lot) when you beat Citeh and certainly Chelski

    Funny old world!-Oh before I get lynched I have paid my dues believe me…Anyone from certain old sites will recognise my login name and therefore know exactly who I am!

    you yid mugs make me laugh. your welcome to that trouble making arsenal reject. hes way past his best. It wont be long before hes causing trouble in your dressing room. fucking mugs!!!

  206. @kiwigooner, thanks matey.

  207. Lol

    Deep down every Spurs fan knows Arsenal is a far greater club, anything else is outright jealous. To be honest most Arsenal fans know that Man Utd/Chelsea games are the biggest games. We don’t consider Spurs important its just their’s too much love around that we occassionaly have to despice and maintain the balance. Spurs should change their slogan to ” TO DARE IS TO DREAM “.

    the league cup is a trophy.lets not forget it. i was delighted when we lifted it in 87.
    remember the semi final? still not learnt about counting your chickens? announcing your final ticket details at half time was a tad premature.
    i guess dvd player were not yet invented so you had to bang the drum someway.
    as for the spurs fans insulting johnny come latelys
    its a bit rich when you don,t know that the fairs cup became the uefa cup and we won it in 69/70.

    Carling cup? Is that all you shitcunts can come back at us with, that’s like having a pop at the lids table at a wedding, that’s our little league, be nice to our toddlers or they might get pissed off.
    I seriously hope you qualify for the actual champions league because then you will realise what a proper football season really means.
    Your mug of a manager and your band of tossers are fucked.

    Shame we pop up and beat you when you could do without it then…..

    You’re change of motto is amusing-Like a schoolboy pretending he does not fancy a girl by repeatedly pushing her in the playground.

    Don’t worry mate its all right we have accepted Gallas so your welcome.

    Just saddle up to some las in a pub and tell em how much you love the Spurs….

    in fairness tottenham don’t need a new stadium because they still can’t fill that old wreck down the road.
    Banter is good but that’s taking the piss out of their council house.
    You’ll be calling their manager a theiveing, twitching cunt next.
    Have some respect, it’s only football.

  219. mark paul hooker

    i,m deeply ashamed of our greatest ever manager and his 7 trophys including 2 doubles and an unbeaten season in 14 years.
    oh how i wish we could achieve the stability of spurs and there 1 trophy and 12 managers in the same period.
    thats why 606 was full of proud spurs fans calling for harrys head after the home defeat to wolves.
    oh how i wish we could match your patience and loyalty.
    wish we were a well run club like you

    Although slightly off topic i tell what does make me laugh is all the talk of that we came from South London and we should go back.

    One question for our North London neighbours: Which team was in North London first?

    Answer: Arsenal

    Arsenal moved to North london (County of London) when they moved from woolwich but Tottenham wasn,t classed as London untill 1965 when Greater London was established so untill then they officially came from middlesex so when they keep going on about us being from South London just ask them who was in North London first?

    @ loughton gooner you got it wrong mate! Spuds reinvent history to suit their deluded selves. As Stalin said, if you repeat the lie often enough, it becomes the truth.
    @Tonyss wow that is an impressive list of top notch titles. If I was a Spud, I would like the DVD of the Norwich Charity Winners cup thing please. Is it in black and white? My grand dad remembered a kick and rush team that won something almost fifty years ago! I hope that comes out on DVD too.

    County of London 1889 – 1965
    Includes Islington but not Haringay

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/County_of_London

    Greater London 1965 – Present day
    Now includes Islington and Haringay which goes to prove that Tottenham was in the county of Middlesex up untill 1965 while Arsenal have been in London since moving from Woolwich.

    How are they not embarrassed about Fabregas running past the lot of them and banging one in 7 seconds after we’d just scored?

    Yido, NORTHSPUR:
    Oh you are dreaming already of becoming the dorminant force in North London: My question is since when? You only just beat us in the league last year after 9-10 years of trying and all of a sudden you are planning on ruling the world! pride they say goes before a fall and I cannot wait to se how mighty that crash will be. Probably sooner rather than later! Wiliam Gallas waited 5 yrs without a trophy at the Arsenal, yes we agree! how long did Sol wait for one at the Lane and see how many came along immediately he joined the most beatiful to watch team in the UK! Let’s just wait and see what Willie G achieves with u lot before you start making comparisons. He may have to go on for 6 yrs before he gets his hands on half as many silverware that Sol was able to lift in just under 4 years by which time big Willie would be nudging 40!!! Go get some life you SPUDS!!!

  231. YourMomsKnickers

    coys, i see you spewing illiterate tripe every 5 comments i scroll down. I hope it’s not a representation of how intellectual the Spuds are. Go learn how to spell and use some punctuations before posting anything, you brainless bitch.

  232. TheFingerInYourButthole

    To Yido, Northspur, Clockwork, and the other wankers.

    Why the flying fuck are you spending so much time on an Arsenal blog? I swear you’ve posted more comments here than the blogger himself.

    Are you Spuds a bunch of voyeurs? Why the obsession over what the blogger has to say? Is it because you Spuds have trouble finding quality Shite Fart Stain blogs to read and comment on?

    Or is it because you feel the burn of the truth in scott_puffin’s words? I think it’s all of em’.

    As far as I see, every pro-Spud comment here reeks of hubris and lack of reasoning. Nice knowing our North London neighbors have their brains in their anuses.

    See you below us on St. Totteringham’s day, you despondent fuckwits.

  233. David Southall

    Jaygooner: I am right mate.

    Look up the County of London. It went from 1889-1965 and included Islington but not Haringay.

    Only in 1965 when Greater London took over from the County of London it then included Haringay which is the borough the other lot are from so we were in London before them because as stated pre 1965 they were classed as Middlesex.

    Look it up mate, County of London and then Greater London and it don,t half give em the hump when they realise that we were actually in North London before them.

    Gallas has come crashing down. He thought he will get a big big contract from top clubs in europe. He got a reality check and had to settle for the lesser at Totenham…

  235. Jacob

    Spurs haven’t win much and suddenly when tottenham entered Champions League, their fans started to think that they’re a very accomplished team … hahaha . And spurs fans came to blog about Arsenal and started to show off Spur’s abilities… Joke of the week I suppose

  236. NORTHSPUR

    @TheFingerInYourButthole
    “To Yido, Northspur, Clockwork, and the other wankers.”

    That comment really sums you up and your following comments are right from the dark ages and shows the poor state of the world when people can use a keyboard but have no clue how to have a reasonable debate.

    Then again i have found users with silly user names such as yours and “YourMomsKnickers” do have problems interacting above pond life

    @on d gooner

    Of course i am dreaming of becoming the top club in london as a spurs fan who has not missed a home game in 10 years dispite living 300 miles away ( 600 round trip) i dream each and every year thats what football is all about.

    Its easy when you are at the top just as the arse have been to stop dreaming and to expect but just ask Liverpool fans how that works out.

    With us (hopefully) and Man city pushing for the top 4 someone has to fall sooner or later

  237. Vitamin Arse

    NORTHSPUR, you said “With us (hopefully) and Man city pushing for the top 4 someone has to fall sooner or later”

    Push all you might, nobody HAS to fall. If a team is better than you, then they’re better than you. No if’s or but’s.

    I can confidently say that Chelski, United and the Arse will finish in the top 3 once again. And if I were to predict the 4th spot finish, I would without a doubt hand it to Liverpool. Terrible as they might have been last season, their quality still outdoes yours by a considerable margin.

    Though Spurs finished 4th last season, they have a laughable amount of experience in the UCL. I hope that at some point (assuming you don’t get your asses handed to you by the Young Boys) during the competition, you face what it’s like to have your team travel to Godknowswhereland every few weeks to face some team you feel you will surely beat, and end up with a draw or worse, a loss. Even scarier when you let in 3 goals or more.

    Add that to risk of injuries (which will sky-rocket once you play CL football) and you might find yourself struggling to stay mid-table come January.

    Wake up and smell the coffee, Spuds. Finishing 4th one season does not mean finishing above Arsenal the next season.

    But dreaming is good I guess. It sparks imagination and gives you something to look forward to in life where otherwise you would have nothing to do by sit at your PC and blabber nonsense. (Made apparent by your comment frequency that you do nothing but troll Arsenal blogs so damn often). Dream on. :D

  238. NORTHSPUR

    @Vitamin Arse

    “their quality still outdoes yours by a considerable margin.”

    See thats where the bitterness shows if you put the 2 sides together it would be hard to say whos better as the opening games show.

    We should have battered M city but for Joe Hart yet they showed Liverpool how to play football.

    Then you show your bitterness again with silly comments at the end.

    Blogs are Blogs be it the Arse or spurs or would you like to see blogs full of your own supporters with no banter or views from the other side ?

  239. Vitamin Arse

    You lost to Young Boys. What does that prove?

  240. NORTHSPUR

    @Vitamin Arse

    Is that what you base your debate on REALLY ?

    We lost the 1st leg NOT the match, but if you wish to go down that road we can.

    You failed to beat a very poor 10 man Liverpool so what does that prove ?

Reality is wenger said himself said that he spent sooooooooooo much time trying to sign kosc, that he couldn’t put much time in trying to keep Gallas, or words to that effect. Scott is 100% accruate on that. I’m glad the spudling prick fucks have got him, bye bye Gallas, and good look you potato heads you will need.

  244. Vitamin Arse

    Liverpool is NOT Bern. Even with a man down they cannot be mentioned together in the same breadth. How can you even make such a comparison? Unless of course, you are implying that Arsenal and Tottenham have an equally large gap in quality and ability. (I’m not even suggesting such a thing)

    Use some sense before making half-baked assertions. I honestly would like to avoid going down that road (salting your wounds), but all this excessive vainglory coming from Spurs fans has moved me to do otherwise.

    You pointed out earlier that somehow Spurs should have beat Man City beat Liverpool which means Spurs is better than Liverpool.

    I hope you understand that even the best clubs have a run of bad form. You want proof? Look at Chelsea’s pre-season. 3 losses on the trot followed by 2 consecutive 6-nil wins. If that hasn’t told you anything then I doubt my argument here will change your viewpoint.

  245. Goonerpower

    Words to that effect yeh.

    Read it and what doess that prove. I was right, he spent ‘sooooooooooo’ much time trying to sign targets. He ain’t gonna say I don’t want to keep him. If we wanted to keep him we could of gave him the contract he wanted, but we didn’t we spent better money else where. FACT

  246. Merdeka

    i am from Malaysia, and i just wanna give my two cents worth to all the spurs fans talking crap in the comments section:

    Arsenal is a far better and far more respected club. it is a fact. over here in Malaysia, we follow the BPL as if it is our lifeline. and know what? until now, in my 10 years of watching the BPL, i have never met a Spurs fan in my nation. Arsenal, Liverpool, ManUtd, and Chelsea fans are aplenty. Real Madrid and Barcelona, AC Milan and Inter also have quite a following. ManCity have a few here and there. but no Spurs. i have not met even ONE, and i have a TON of football fanatics as friends.

    the simple reason is: Malaysians don’t live in UK, and as such are only exposed to teams who perform very well in competitions, particularly over the last 20 years. you will see than all the sports channels (ESPN, StarSports, etc) in Malaysia gives priority to games played by the top 4. the other teams only get shown if there is extra screen time. looks like Spurs are not in that category.

    i challenge you to prove to me that there exists a country where the number of Spurs fans outnumber those of Arsenal, Liverpool, etc. you can search forever and find none.

    success is measured by popularity. and over here, i can hardly call Spurs popular.

    so please stop boasting until you have reached the level the REAL top 4 are in. (ManUtd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea)

  247. NORTHSPUR

    @Vitamin Arse

    I made no comparison i said you failed to beat a VERY poor 10 man Liverpool side which is a fact so what does that prove ?

    We were caught out by YB and they were much better than us in the first 40 mins but we came back to pull 2 goals back so your “half-baked assertions” really are poor

  248. Merdeka

    i am a Liverpool fan btw.

  249. NORTHSPUR

    @Merdeka

    I think you will find REAL spurs suporters do not claim spurs are better or have been better than arsenal in the last 10 years but to say success is measured by popularity is silly.

  250. NORTHSPUR

    @Merdeka

    So as a Liverpool fan would you rather have popularity you earn 10 years ago or success ?

  251. Vitamin Arse

    Only you opine that Liverpool were REALLY POOR that weekend. If you want my opinion, I think YB are FAR POORER than Liverpool as a footballing side. And they were FAR POORER than Liverpool for that 90 mins if you want it straight. So if you can get caught out by a FAR POORER side for 40 mins, who the hell gives you the space to brag about being caught out by a MORE THAN DECENT side for 90 mins? At least we didn’t damn well LOSE now did we?

    I have nothing more to say. You won’t hear from me again, so spare your keyboard some hard-hitting, and get off the PC and do some exercise.

  252. NORTHSPUR

    @Vitamin Arse

    You forgot to take your dummy.

    Yes YBs are a far poorer side than Liverpool and my comments reflect that However it was YOU that ask what did that loss prove yet and i told you we were poor but you can/will not answer what failing to beat a poor 10 man liverpool side means

  253. NORTHSPUR

    By the way Vitamin Arse why do you feel the need to insult ?

    I ask because you can always tell when someone knows they are talking crap because they have to insult people

  254. ClockworkYid

    Again a fun an decent debate becomes all shouty and sweary.

    To those that tried hard to have a debate well done.

    To the shouty sweary morons get a grip.You do yourselves no favours.Keyboard warriors make me laugh but they do tend ruin this sort of thing to be honest.

    Arse have had a good run of trophies under Wenger and Graham before him but have not done a great deal for the last five years-Maybe we will but that remains to be seen.We too have a great history and an excellent trophy bank to refer back too.Just remeber top flight football in the uK is about a damn sight more than the brief period of the ‘premiership’ Which is why certain Malaysian fans follow Arsenal because they have no idea what football is about in the UK-Personaly and this is by no means a race issue but foreign viewers,investors,gambling syndicates etc are whats killing football in the UK.Remember when nearly every game kicked off at 3pm on a saturday?Before the days when SKY had obligations to its foreign viewers……

  255. Goonerpower

    Just had chance to sit down an read all the comments. I can understand why my first comment got picked up on, as this had been pretty much talked/sorted.

    Some great banter going on, mint!!!

    The truth is Gallas is past it, yes he had a good last season with us, but I believe he was just playing for a new club/contract. No doubt you have a good player there but mark my words if you don’t get 4th he’s outta there chaps. You only got him because you are in the champs league………for now lol :-)

    I actually did rate him, at some point, but could not be bothered with him after the sit down at Birmingham.

    Good luck with him!!

  256. @I’ll delete you – I delete comments that are abusive or racist. It’s not about ‘manning up’, it’s about being sensible.
    Quite frankly, if you don’t agree with that, then I’d rather you not read my blog.

  257. NORTHSPUR

    @Goonerpower

    “The truth is Gallas is past it”

    Is he more past it than Sol was when you resigned him ??.

    Even if he fecks off after a year its not like he cost anything other than wages

  258. Goonerpower

    Clockworkyid,

    .Remember when nearly every game kicked off at 3pm on a saturday?Before the days when SKY had obligations to its foreign viewers

    Sky has nothing to do with fixtures mate. The PFA are the ones making the money dude. Sky just pay shit loads for there “Uk based company”
    For us paying cust to watch football.
    The PFA get the money for the foreign based tv, then share it down the prem league teams hence us being one of the if not the richest league in the world.

  259. n.london red

    emirates was half empty before the 90 minutes last saturday because all the blackpool fans left at the 6-0 victory to arsenal. it isnt that hard to explain.

  260. Goonerpower

    Northspur you could be right. But what if he starts crying like he did here, he could upset the balance and un-rest the team. He also could be a revelation and become a hit, hmmmm just don’t see it myself.

    I truly believe we have better! (as long as squillaci comes) and are better equipped than last season (goalkeeper needed)

    Come on the Gooners!

  263. McGuinness

    Hello all,

    I hope everyones having a good day.

    I think that Arsenal is a tragic poster boy for the downfall of English football.

    Seriously, are you not ashamed that you are an ‘English team’(and I use that term very lightly) and you have only 3 English players, one of whom is Kieran Gibbs?

    It’s an embarassment.

  264. Goonerpower

    Mcguinnes, what hell has that to do with this?!?!?! Please give us some decent comments, it takes ages for my iPhone to refresh only to read some wank stained comment from you

    By the way that was not a shouty sweary comment just stating a fact.

  265. The spuds’ fans should keep it in mind that they are still way behind Arsenal just like Man city are to united but city can shout now and say they match united “player for player” or even better but ages in terms of success

  266. NORTHSPUR

    @steven

    Spurs are not way behind granted they are yet on the same level but the gap has closed and still is.

    There would be at least 5 spurs players that would walk into the arse team at the moment

  267. McGuinness

    Calm down Goonerpower, by your response I can tell you are ashamed by that fact too.

    Gallas is a complete non-event the only people who are getting all riled up about it are gooners.

    With regards to the gap, it’s closing and it’s being closed by an English manager and mostly English players. Gooners are traitors and Arsenal has turned it’s back on it’s own country, shameful behaviour but not shocking or surprising.

    Harry Redknapp used to be a gooner but luckily he came to his senses, he knows they have no desire for an English manager there.

  268. Vitamin Arse

    Good lord, NORTHSPUR. You’re still here?!

    Anyway, to answer your previous query -

    “Yes YBs are a far poorer side than Liverpool and my comments reflect that However it was YOU that ask what did that loss prove yet and i told you we were poor but you can/will not answer what failing to beat a poor 10 man liverpool side means”

    I have already answered you if you didn’t catch it –

    “I hope you understand that even the best clubs have a run of bad form. You want proof? Look at Chelsea’s pre-season. 3 losses on the trot followed by 2 consecutive 6-nil wins. If that hasn’t told you anything then I doubt my argument here will change your viewpoint.”

    McGuinness –

    “With regards to the gap, it’s closing and it’s being closed by an English manager and mostly English players. Gooners are traitors and Arsenal has turned it’s back on it’s own country, shameful behaviour but not shocking or surprising.”

    To accuse Arsenal of treachery is going a wee bit far don’t you think? To say such a thing just either means you have no clue of what’s going on in the Arsenal youth system, or just that you have simply no regard for age.

    “Harry Redknapp used to be a gooner but luckily he came to his senses, he knows they have no desire for an English manager there.”

    Sigh. What is this? I don’t even… Forget it.

  270. ClockworkYid

    Anyhoo!

    Goonerpower good point about the FA being behind the mockery of a league we have evolved into-I hate it don’t you? The premiership is in danger of becoming some sort of Harlem Globetrotting exhibition of a league rather than a cmpetative league which I assume we all want.We might be the ‘most exciting’ bt agruably in terms of football we are not the best!

    I am preparing for tonights visit from the ‘Young Boys’and experiencing a bit of squeaky bum to be honest but win loose or draw I will appear here later to take the applause/grief/laughter etc etc and have a general oan about the state of the modern game etc etc

    Have fun and up the SPURS!!!!!!

  271. Goonerpower

    I am calm mate, was just saying that your comment was a load of pointless drivel.

    I am proud of my team, English or not. We turn out some excellent English talent, that either can’t wait for first team football or there just not good enough. All the English talent cost stupid money, and wenger is right not to blow silly money just because there english!

    Is that better for you

  272. ClockworkYid

    Hmmm what a come back, should of known better than to indulge you in conversation.

  278. Goonerpower

    @clockworkyid, lol about the squeaky bum. I get that every champs league game, always really nervous. Even more so in the qualifier rounds, anybody can beat anybody and be out before it actually started.

    Good luck to you, I will be shouting for the young boys (sounds so wrong don’t it) as you can imagine sorry :-)

    Bastard!

  280. McGuinness, having more England internationals than Arsenal is nothing to be proud of. England are useless!!
    I’d rather have a World Cup winner in Fabregas, and World Cup finalist in Robin van Persie.

  281. Goonerpower

    Lol Scott. Here’s one for you Scott, it looks like the spuds will go through tonight. Let’s say the spuds draw barca (oooooh please) who would you want to lose????

    I can’t answer this without a bomb (joke)!!

  282. Seriously, can you imagine if Tottenham did face anyone like Barca, Real Madrid, Lyon or Inter? It would be embarrassing.

  283. NORTHSPUR

    @scottpuffin
    “It would be embarrassing”

    Well you do have first hand knowledge

  284. NORTHSPUR, I totally agree, we got embarrassed by Barca. Most teams do.
    Inter Milan 5-1 was embarrassing for them, so too the night Thierry Henry destroyed half the Real Madrid team. Very similar to the goal he scored against your mob at Highbury.

  285. NORTHSPUR

    Thing is you HOPE it would be embarrassing but things do not always turn out how you would like them too.

    Tonite proves that

  286. Clockworkyid

    WAHEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sorry had to be done.

    Right whats happening-Are we crap going to die in the group stages and get relegated?

    I thought I saw some good footie tonight.A couple of signings and its in the bag….God knows what you lot would do if we got four European trophys behind us……

    Anyway realisticly a good night for the Yids and lets hope it catapults our season.Im sure the majority of you all agree…….!

  287. They’re all out tonight!!
    Welcome back Clockworkyid.

  288. Clockworkyid

    Well come on then chaps pick your holes im a waiting especially as WG is now eligable for the CL…!

    I know im happ but feek it why not!

    Love you all…….

  289. Clockworkyid, sorry mate, my mistake. We had a Tottenham fan on last night called ‘Clockwork’. I got you confused with him!
    Congratulations on reaching the Champions League for the first time ever. Do teams really get excited over it? I thought it was the norm for most teams.

  290. McGuinness

    Best of luck gooners in the prem & champs league however unlucky you didnt get lucky with Young Boys tonight, maybe you might have more luck when youre out cruising later.

    The fantastic thing about football is that every year a new chapter is written and as football fans we all know that sometimes these chapters can be a joy to read and sometimes a horror.

    Noone knows what will happen in the next chapter or the chapter after that and any talk of who is better is simply conjecture. Who is the best and who is better than who is decided afresh every year.

  291. “Who is the best and who is better than who is decided afresh every year.”
    For the last 100 years plus, it’s been us. I’m sure you’ll have you year eventually.

    ScottPuffin

    I am one and the same old boy-The love of the bowler hat,I dress in white and have used the moniker of Clockwork or Clockworkyid for years (the later being more well known) but I am one and the same..

    The hat has been hung up and the white outfit stored away for a while (therapy does work!)

    Still jubliant and why not as the £ should or could lead to more coming in…That is what really excites me

    A couple more ‘big players’ read into that what you will could set up a charge that could take us anywhere this season.

    So excited a bit of wee came out……

    Come On You Spurs!!!!!!!!!!

  293. Goonerpower

    ‘whoohoo’ spudlings get through to the REAL stages, and let’s be honest you would of lost tonight against a good team :-) .

    All jokes aside, here is where it really starts.
    You ain’t gonna get through the group stages and that will be a FACT

  294. Clockworkyid

    Goonerpower

    It makes you wet doesn’t it….

    Life is what you make it..shit comment I know but its great-Level pegging in the leauge and we get the same luck as the Arse in the ‘Elite’ Just in case it does happen and we go further or do better in both or either- the ke question is how will you feel?

    Mmmmwhah!

  295. Goonerpower

    Well son, good luck, and as every year goes, what you doing down there!?!?!??!?

  296. Clockworkyid

    Goonerpower

    Having fun my old son!

    Anyway back to footie……

    Had a great night tonight-Yes ok your used to it !

    Really looking forward to playin you lot.A lot more at stake this time I feel and as already stated we wil get one or two new ones in.Modric will be back and who knows what we will have waiting for you…

    Its going to be a good season for both us -I just hope we will be top of the pile come the end

    COYS!-Great nights ahead!

  297. McGuinness

    Face it Goonerpower, you wont get past the group stages and that is a fact…

    Oh look, anybody can make a completly speculative comment and say that it’s fact. What fun.

  298. Goonerpower

    Mcguinnes I said that will be a fact, not is a fact. It hasn’t happened……….yet :-)

  299. McGuinness

    Excuse me, you ain’t gonna get through the group stages and that will be a fact goonerpower, that will be a fact.

    Speculating is fun.

  300. NORTHSPUR

    “Mcguinnes I said that will be a fact, not is a fact”

    Try reading that again and you may see how silly it looks.

    What is a FACT is spurs are in the CL on the same level as you and maybe thats the problem another cup game where theres a chance spurs could knock the arse out and you are a little worried

  301. DKD

    stupid yids get ur scum away from this site .the earth will start shining the day you all win a trophy .

  302. Goonerpower

    Not even slightly worried. Honestly good luck, you really will need it. We qualify ever year and know what to expect.

    Northspur I read my comment back, apart from a little Punctuation it reads correctly.

  303. NORTHSPUR

    @DKD

    the earth will start shining the day you all win a trophy .

    I think you will find we have won more in the last 5 years than you have so whatever your phrase means it really applys to you but looking at your opening comments yor IQ clearly clearly stops you from undering that

  304. NORTHSPUR

    Sorry should be ” UNDERSTANDING”

  305. Goonerpower

    Lol, See we can all miss-spell or miss words out.

  306. NORTHSPUR

    @Goonerpower

    Your point being ?

  307. hamzee

    arsenal should buy another goalkeeper if we need trophy

  308. McGuinness

    As english sentences go hamzee, it’s not perfect.

    Shouldn’t it be something more or less like this:

    We should get another goalkeeper if we want a trophy, or we need to win a trophy so we should buy a keeper who isnt complete dogshit… Or summit like that.

    But I agree with the sentiment, you do need to win a trophy, it must be getting embarassing now.
