Think they'll be topping themselves without Champ League football.

Different expectations of what constitutes a good season means you lot would be over the moon with 10th place, half the Arsenal fans would be off to top themselves if we finished 10th!
They'll start supporting Man City next year, half of them never saw Highbury, after all.......
Troll and proud of it.

To be honest, as the season was about to begin, with Chungy still unbroken & Holden due back 8th-10th was what I expected.

Right now, I'd take 17th. Get the new guys bedded in, Chungy & Holden back & a couple more in the summer & we can look at mid-table again. However, January apart, it's been pretty traumatic so far !!

What a set of tossers ...
Arsenal fans are planning to use bin-bags to protest against the club's poor run of results. Fans will highlight the number of empty red seats at the Emirates during Saturday's match against Blackburn by covering them with black bin liners.

Tossers, true but they'd better bloody win.

I think they'll find the bin bags will generate more atmosphere.......

Useless feckers! Can't do anything right!

You've double jinxed it now.

FFS, you youngsters never learn. 93rd minute equaliser in the offing for Blackburn now.

Blackburn sending off now.

Not counting my chickens though, still another half to go. Could go all pear shaped yet.

I like to think you're all thrilled Arsenal are winning, whereas really you're just pleased that Blackburn are losing aren't you?! :P
