Arsenal showboating

The Blackpool one was a joke though.

The 27-pass move. There's passing, then there's taking the piss, and that was taking the piss.

nowt wrong with passing the ball about imo
if they'd stood on the ball or started doing freestyle moves then that would be out of order

Shame we went on to £#%&! it up later

If you mean the Portsmouth match, IMO scandalously incompetent officialling had rather more to do with it........

Not for the first, or last, time

I still can't believe that Carrick attempt. The ball just seemed to stick in the turf. It all seemed to be happening in slow motion, as did Portsmouth's break for the penalty.
