Just what is the old man going on about here. Time and again we fold throughout a season

and yet he keeps churning out this bollox on the back of a decent result, invariably against average opposition..

“This team has a good mentality. I’ve had many teams in my life and this team is top quality. They have gone through a bad period but, when you play like that [against Watford], that shows that mentally they are pure. :hehe:

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

The press do it all the time, as if, in this instance, Arsene wandered down the street, stopping random people and shouting about 'mentality' into their faces.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that he was asked a meaningless question like, "What does this result say about the team's mentality?" for the 86 thousandth time in his career, he flicked through his mental Roladex of innocuous, non-controversial platitudes and churned one out. Little imagining that someone, somewhere, would find a way to be offended by it.

A day out visiting a castle, lunching on lobster, chips and champagne. Ideal.

[7evens]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Your contention is that there was no question which led to this statement?

[Pokster]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Haven't you been listening to George?

is what I find difficult to digest and whether or not it has any true meaning to the many thick fans, such as myself.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

mangling the English language so as to remain purposely meaningless when he so wishes...

Lots of cannons - wasn't very big though

is just the job.

I would just point out that the pipe is in addition to the fags. I am no quitter.

I went to that one out west that was supposed to be Camelot... wossname, I can't remember. Anyways, the f**ker was all fallen down.

Rubbish.

Hope you had a great day.

I'm right off lobster, btw. First world problems, eh? :-)

by the East Kent Alliance (splitters) who aren't keen on immigrants, to be countered by the Kent Anti-Nazi League. As you can imagine, the traffic was adversely affected.

I was rather hoping that I'd get to see a copper splitting open the head of some rent-a-crowd SWP dreadlock-sporting scum. Sadly, we missed all the action.

That's nonsense, it's still a pit.

Not so many that still have such furnishings, I'd have thunk. The White Tower, perhaps? I haven't been for decades. I must rectify this.

[Luis Anaconda]

Quite frankly the area could do with a couple of decent tapas bars :-(

Penshurst and Hever weren't real castles. I'll give you Arundel :thumbup:.

I'll wager that castle has never withstood the might of cannon fire, seige towers and dynamite mined beneath its towers! Oh wait. It has no real towers!

And it has bay windows FFS!

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It is surrounded by northernness and close by Coventry.

so we decided to stroll round the town for a couple of hours, and ended up visiting some places, and when we got back to the castle there were thousands of people queueing up to get in, so we ended up giving it a swerve and went to Kenilworth Castle instead.

a day, so I spent the afternoon swanning around Warwick. Very nice, but it meant I hit the M25 at about 5 and ended up taking 5 hours to get home. Ho-hum.
