| 21. Author: NMCmassive Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 08:37 Arsenal fans are just like Celtic fans. None are from their home city. They greet about everything. They’re 100% positive (even when decisions go there way) that there’s it’s a conspiracy. I doubt you’ll find any tin foil in their cupboards. It’s most likely wrapped round their heid. Tbf I don’t watch any of the EPL. Most times I sit to watch it, it’s a pure snooze fest. Loads of good players down there but that doesn’t necessarily make for entertaining games. COYP Reply |
| 22. Author: Bandy Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 09:56 Thing is, Celtic had a bit of point - Jim Farry was proven to have deliberately delayed the registration of Cadete, and was sacked for gross misconduct when this was uncovered. It`s only a bit of point because they do get (and have always gotten) favourable decisions against most teams - but not against Rangers. Reply |
| 23. Author: parsmad68 Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 11:28 By the numbers of comments in the news and here also. Sounds like a right tasty return if still neck and neck. Hope it continues. Love a good old scrap in footballing terms. Much nicer than having a big cuddle in before the game with the opposition. Reply |
| 24. Author: Playup_Pompey Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 12:13 I certainly see the fan frustration about "consistency" with decisons. The Rice red card for example and then the kicking the ball event that happned in same game from brighton player. Difference being Brighton played launched a ball already out of play into Row ZZ however in "modern" time of multi-ball there was no delay to restart given there is a spare match ball less than a tard away to then continue with the restart as was.

| 25. Author: Bandy Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 12:43 Exactly Playup_pompey. Another good example is Liverpool v Forest last week. Same ref (Michael Oliver), same circumstance (Szoboszlai, on a second yellow, punts the ball away after the whistle for a foul against him), same delay between whistle and action (circa one sec), same impact (virtually none). Different outcome. It`s bonkers. Reply |
| 26. Author: NMCmassive Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 13:24 The very fact you’re going back to Cadete says it all. Have you really had that one in the locker for 28years? Funnily enough the blue side of Glasgow didn’t like him cos he wanted to play football on the day of Diana’s funeral COYP Reply |
| 27. Author: Bandy Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 13:42 No - I was giving an example one when apparently `tinpotted` conspiracy theories actually had `a bit` of merit. The fact that is was a while ago doesn`t negate the fact that it happened. To restate what I`ve said above, i do NOT think there is a conspiracy against Arsenal. I DO think the delaying the restart rule has been applied inconsistently this season to Arsenal`s detriment. Reply |
| 28. Author: DA-go Par Adonis Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 13:52 What Trossard did looked like dissent to me - rather than delaying the game. Oliver also played a big part in Arsenal getting their equaliser and some refs would have disallowed their 2nd goal. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I love it when we go sell Kevin Nisbet, He's gonna pay for everyone this season.

| 29. Author: Bandy Date: Tue 24th Sep 2024. 15:20 Officially (according to PGMOL twitter) he was booked for delaying the restart. On Oliver playing a `big part` in Arsenal`s first goal, I disagree (although you knew I would!). His part is minor at best. The major contributors are laziness from the City defence, and a great finish by Calafiori. 1. Oliver turns his back on Walker (indicating the conversation is over) then Walker continues chuntering at him whilst standing still for a few seconds despite Oliver clearly ending the conversation and planning to restart the game. Those few seconds Walker could have used to get himself `set`. 2. Walker then jogs slowly back to position - still chuntering at Oliver. 3. When the ball is played Walker is actually in line with the Man City defensive line, so he`s hardly `out of position`. 4. Walker actually gets back to jockey Martinelli anyway, it`s not like Martinelli has a clear run on goal, and slows him down forcing him to pass inside. 5. For some reason Man City`s winger (Savio?) doesn`t track Calafiori - nothing to do with Walker or the free kick - just laziness. 6. Calafiori then hits an absolutely worldie of a finish. I reckon the quality of that finish from Calafiori played a much bigger part in the goal than anything Oliver did. If you want me to be really pedantic - when the whistle blew Arsenal`s captain (Saka) was further out of position than Walker ever was, because he had further to walk from his position to get to Oliver when he called the captains over!

There’s no really any merit in a conspiracy when the boy in the wrong gets sacked. I don’t know why you’re here greetin about it? Don’t arsenal have a fan’s forum? 😂 COYP Reply |
