I might have said this before... Twitter is ****e and opens the world up to loons who should be locked away with no interaction with the outside worldQuote:

I think he’ll wear a suit. Anyway, shouldn’t you be worrying about who’ll be coaching Chelsea?Quote:

The problem is Arteta was nothing more than a very desperate 11th hour transfer deadline day signing from Wenger.
He’s representative of the problems we’ve had the last few years ie
Not a leader
Not a captain
Not good enough
Not realiable
The guy was stuck at Everton for years and no one wanted him until it became clear Arsene was in for a lynching if he didn’t get anyone.
...
Early signs aren’t tremendously great...he wants to veto Sven and keep the current bunch of losers like Wilshere and Mustafi.
I was kind of hoping we’d put the last few years behind us but it’s just going to carry on.
Good luck to the guy...reckon all the Arsene Outs will begging him to come back by December.
Not a single mention for his hair and teeth?Quote:

I remember one exchange where he revealed that he wore coloured shirts with white collars and cuffs. I seem to remember we were rather merciless on the subject. The phrase 'barrow boy' may have been mentioned. :hehe:Quote:

There was DRFC. He could be goaded into explosive anger on almost any topic in the space of two or three tweets. :hehe:Quote:

Have to say, I do miss the old days of two pages of posts by midday, about 90% of them being internet fights complete with offering someone out. Old skool days, those. :hehe:
I think he was an actual joo and objected to any humorous reference to the Holocaust.Quote:
