Don't you effin dare Mr Zulu. :D

I think the title accurately sums up how Bolton fans, on a Bolton forum perceive Arsenal.

I've just said that, but much longer, on fb to a Canadianish friend of mine.

I await the plastic Oirish deluge from Stateside !!

Please don't say nasty things about Woolwich, i'll have you know they had 2 English players score in a game for the first time since 1997 yesterday. Respect where it is due.
I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours but i think that God's got a sick sense of humour and when i die i expect to find him laughing

Neither of you are going to win the league any time soon, so small victories an all that.

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Indeed, you know it's been a very bad season when there was a tiny smidgen of doubt at one point that you might finish below spurs...

And this threads title has still not even changed despite me posting a picture and asking very nicely. Humph.

TTID would love you more if more of your divers were English divers... apparently that kind of thing makes a difference... :wink:

I think that's a little harsh on the Arsenal players - "divers" maybe... but "load of bollox"??

You've had more red cards then anyone in the league, bar QPR, this season so I'd be careful who you accuse of being dirty ;)

nice sidestep!! the accusation was DIVING!! :-)

and - are you counting the ones that were later overturned??

however - we ARE seven places above you in the FAIR PLAY league!!!

also - in the player discipline league - there are TWO arsenal players well before you find a Bolton one...
