Why is this place so dead these days?

[JohnnyPuma]

Is it just the technical issues?
Thank god Nic posted today, otherwise there hardly would have been any posts.

I kind of miss modd.

crawling out of the woodwork, posters who signed up 8 years ago and have made about 140 posts, all oddly negative and always posted after a defeat, never to be heard from again until the next one.

I think these people enjoy feeling vindicated when we lose more than us actually winning football games.

Like that Claude-mongrel who appears on ArsenalFanTV, he looked devastated by our win yesterday. I bet he had prepared an whole f**king incomprehensible speech with metaphors and similies ranging from butter turned bad to monasteries being burned down to some sort of apocalyptic event, all in the service of having ****s like me talk about him on the internet or to vindicate his Wenger Out agenda.

You blame Wenger for that tackle on Jack?

You blame Wenger for Theo come back from the England squad injured?

You blame Wenger for Debuchy's or Giroud's injury?

Are you aware that we now have the ex-German World Cup medical team?

Do you blame Wenger for Giroud and Koscielny returning early from injury?

observations and general contempt towards people from Berni and Sir C to spark debate around here. Then invariably Jorge will try to tell them that they're wrong, and Pat will start a new thread (usually about guitars) to draw the AWIMB energy and attention elsewhere. Then we'll have a Stormfuhrer Floyd-thread advocating some genocidal plan or other before GSTB starts a thread with a broken link about something that was discussed a few hours earlier. Then people are off work and the place dies until barrybueno shows up drunk and asks where everyone is. Finally Chief will arrive at the scene and start eight topics on how inane Obama's policies are.
Then it's morning again and the whole thing starts over.
Rinse and repeat.

it wasn't about the team- it was about the board..or bored ..I should say ….

When the injury problems reappear every season, year after year it is no accident. Even Wenger himself said something along those lines this summer.

This is why I was hopeful when Shad F. came in this summer. I thought something was finally being done to address the situation.

I am willing to give SF some time, but so far he doesn't look like the miracle worker we were told he was.

have been avoided

as mentioned above i.e. Jack

[Ben.]

What they lacked in creativity and attraction they made up for in...in...in

I definitely had something when I started that sentence.

Is this what your thesis is about?
Sorry...., I know it's a sensitive subject.

AWIMB as existential revolt*.

*Even I can't justify that through word****ery :hehe:
