    Re: League and FA cups.

    Gee im glad we won the season as to lose a cup final to a blatant hand ball/offside which was called by the lines man but over ruled by the ref for some unknown reason is a bit shit.

    Well done to Arsenal but result influenced for mine.

    Moses selfishness in taking a dive when on a yellow killed the contest, should feel a bit guilty about a stupid act.

      I understand where your coming from Chef the call was a bad one and it shouldn't have been a goal but Arsenal were by far the better side and I think you were lucky to still be in it by half time. Moses what a silly way to end his good season.

        You dont win games by 'being a better side' though.

        Goals decide games and that one did in the end. Plus Moses with his brain fart, that probably cost us as much.

          True but I would be blaming Moses more.

            Yeah i dunno. The Moses dive was stupid, but that goal would have been called handball/offside at my sons under 15s game, how it stands at FA Cup level is just ridiculous.

            Just disappointing a big game gets influenced by a dodgy call. But i cant complain too much considering the season ive just had.

              Costa cheating and getting an Arsenal player sent off was enough to cost us the league last year.


              Now we are even. Honour is settled.
              They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                Thats not what cost you the title though. We beat you home and away last season. Both times your players were undisciplined and you only have yourselves to blame.

                Was a shit call and a dodgy goal, even Arsenal can see that cant they?

                  A perfect time for Wenger to say well, I go out on a high, but no he says nothing about his future.

                      That's not how I saw the Costa thing. He flat out cheated in that game and the ref sent the wrong player off and I seem to remember Costa being pretty pleased with himself. That cost us the title.


                      No offence but this is a perfect example of what goes around, comes around. If the shoe was on the other foot, I'd happily own up to it.

                        Haha Leicester finished 10 points in front of you. In what world did Gabriel losing his shit and being sucked in cost you the title?

                        As i said it was a shit decision, but if you don't want to admit to that and try and deflect to karma somehow so be it.

                          I'm still annoyed about it. That means I'm allowed to be unreasonable and recall inaccurate facts to back up my case!

                            Haha fair enough.

                            At least you've had some cups to celebrate lately. Hopefully for your sake Wenger does the right thing and stands down too.

                              The club needs to make the move and not just offer up a new contract. The fans are calling for it.

                                Yep. Wenger has been actively trashing his legacy at Arsenal for a while now. Unfortunately he won't be remembered as the manager who gave us the invincibles and the guy who ushered us from Highbury to Emirites with little pain. He will be the guy who turned us into Fourthanal the club that is happy just to be in European competition.
