Fucking disgraceful ref and you had to laugh when the Arsenal fans of Wenger's era used to cry about protection for their players against Stoke etc. I'm guessing some of them weren't around a few years earlier? The other thing about that is even under Wenger they were dirty cunts (and not just the old guard) and had an appalling disciplinary record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely. Bergkamp was an absolute cunt and sly with it. Vieira in games against us had the old five foul rule before being in danger of a booking whereas most of ours had a zero tolerance yellow from the off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4376 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 One of Bobby's best ever quotes was after we beat them 3-1 and Arsenal lost their collective shit - "Some people need to learn how to lose" - classic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst tackle I've ever seen was a Bergkamp two footed one on that Frank Dumas we had. I also remember Wenger whinging about the pen that ended their unbeaten run not mentioning the run started with a point gained from a typical Pires dive. Never mind Wykiki we should have team grudge threads. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gérard Ashby was the ref - dead cunt thankfully. (A proper grudge holder). The beginning of the end of Ginola with us. We saw flashes of brilliance after that, but it was never the same level of flair as before. Was rumoured to shout "the just won’t let me play!" towards the bench as he went down the tunnel. Dixon meanwhile was smirking on the pitch, the fucking cunt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17239 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Ginola also had his head turned by Barca and Keegan wouldn't let him go iirc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer of 1996 wasn’t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
