Re: The athletics/running thread

Mojo has well and truly upped and done one! Just been to Rammy. Felt both guilty and deflated seeing all the 'Impending Road Closure' signs out for this Sunday's Bury 10K. In the New Year, Boyo, we HAVE to make a start on the long road back. If you want me to put a training programme together, incl...

Re: The athletics/running thread

A month on and not much changed. Missed Knutsford but managed Leeds Abbey Dash (in Biblical conditions I may add) but am now having trouble with the other leg. Pulled up short on a run last night. Hope I can sort it for the weekend when I'm up for a 5km race in Bromley Cross. Anybody else getting o...

Re: Diving Arsenal Players - The Least Shocking Admission Ever

Well I am a happy gooner tonight. Spending Christmas 5 points clear of City at the top of the league is not what I thought would happen in August. Do I think we will win it? No. But I sure as heck am enjoying the ride with this team of young likeable players full of potential.

Re: The Big Shiny World Cup thread

I struggle to enjoy international football at the best of times, never mind when it’s rudely interrupting some very enjoyable club football (if you’re an arsenal fan) at the moment. As for all the dubious ethics, corruption, death, money surrounding it… :? Think it’s safe to say the womens euros wil...

Re: Your England XI

I have no particular axe to grind with Southgate, but he really doesn't do himself any favours. At today's press conference he pointed to current form as being a key factor in deciding his final squad for the World Cup. I mean, amen to that - we kick off in 10 day's time. However, this was after th...

Re: Today I'm happy about......

Meant to post this on Saturday but I still can't put pictures up on here. We watched the match last Saturday via the Platinum Suite. A treat for my 89 year old father in law, a season ticket holder for donkeys years, but ill health and caring for his late wife means he'd not been to a match in near...

My nieces birthday party. 90’s themed. Had to raid my teenage Arsenal shirt collection but quite proud to find one to fit everyone! What a decade that was!

Re: The Politics Thread

I thought I couldn't be any more worried about our country's future but then watching some of the news coverage last night and this morning, proved me wrong. The number of seemingly rational people who said "Bring back Boris" was quite distressing. "I know he's a proven liar, cheat, bumbling, works...

Twitter. I don’t use it lots but after a match, especially after a win against your biggest rivals, it’s just a delight.
What, you missed Tony Adams doing a Charlston? Shame on you as a Gooner.. :lol:
I saw him yesterday! Has he been booted out now? :cry:

Re: The athletics/running thread

Got GtE coming over for the Leeds Abbey Dash 10k in 3 weeks. Should be a good do. Some very fast runners turn up for it and usually 2-3000 overall. Out of town to the ruins of Kirkstall Abbey and back. Trying to tempt Bruce and BP. I was well up for it when you first mentioned it around 6 weeks ago...

Re: Diving Arsenal Players - The Least Shocking Admission Ever

Was at the derby today! Very happy gooner after. Hate spurs, love beating them and we played well too. Brilliant atmosphere. Top of the league. Not felt so content supporting my team for a while. I’m sure it won’t last so enjoying it whilst it does (Yes Richard Keys, I am allowed to) but the potenti...

Re: The athletics/running thread

Just back from Pilates which is pretty much the only exercise I do these days save walking a lot of steps week days in general life/work. Still have zero motivation to run, need to start playing football with the lads again Mondays but cba even with that at the moment. How’s everyone else getting on?

Re: Tonight's Football

Hope for the future. England under 21's (with out lad Trafford in the nets) beat Germany 3-1, the last one in extra time, after being 1-0 down first half. .
