I understand that Leeds have lost one of their least eleven games :-(

In a way, Arteta is a far more suitable Arsenal manager than Wenger; he's willing to feed off and feed into our traditions, rather than subvert, overthrow and sabotage them.

Can you imagine the Frenchman employing a set pieces coach and making a big deal about corners? But this is who we are!

In his book, Tony Adams talked of having recently signed for us and being invited to watch a game from the directors' box and for the first time experiencing the crowd getting up when dear old Willie Young would lope forward for a corner kick, and deciding he wanted that reaction for himself as well and would work to make it so. A small thing, but a big deal.

Anyway, people didn't like Wenger and the feeling was pretty mutual; he didn't "like" us much either. Inadvertently, Brexit was his greatest triumph. It wouldn't have happened without him as he was the best, most public personification of the EU that the movement could've wished for. He was a constant reminder to people of just why we don't like Europeans; smug, whiny, aloof, know-all autocrats you simply cannot get rid of

We tend to generate a special kind of hatred. People hated George and his football. They derided Tony Adams as a donkey, laughed at Lee Dixon. They despised Wenger and his poncey foreign training methods, French players, speaking different languages. Appreciating wine..... jesus, I think I hate him myself!....

Where was I? Oh yeah, people hate us. They dont like a team from London that cant be written off as a joke or a Russian's toy.

**** them. Bunch of Northern, neanderthal ****s.

In other words, North London Forever

Naturally, your rivals belittle you because they want to beat you. For decades the English football narrative has been written in the North-West. We are "cockney" upstarts and we get it in the neck the most because we have been at it the longest.

Also we didn't have a single player in the England squad in 1966

It's just as well. We were **** in 1966

We had a few in the French squad in 98 although a couple of them didn't actually play for us yet.

Sunday has had one benefit. It has reminded me how much I hate United and their arsehole fans. Now those are cockney ****ers...
