I see we're being linked with Stuart Bannigan. Can't say I know much about him?

Also says how highly McInnes holds Brown... Here's hoping this works out, surely better than hun fud bell.

My girlfriend started watching it the other day, is it any good?

That and the Edinburgh Derby.

Agreed completely, although there are definitely games where he is not as comfortable against. He's someone we should be looking to retain. The game a few weeks back wasn't great for him but generally I've been impressed with him.

Mental

Agreed. Made me wonder whether this was what the club were hinting at with this link up with the red shite. Regardless, it is shite to lose a keeper half way through the season. Horrible club.

Watched that a while back bobby, very good series! You'll enjoy the rest

Well this is shite news. Hopefully they don't decide to send bogdan or mignolet in the other direction. Can't say I'm convinced by Rogers from all the comments I've read about him. A good game against the hunnery 2012 doesn't make a player. At least it's at the beginning of January...

Decent line up with flood coming back in. Let's hope we get the 3 points, especially with the dhims game being postponed.

What makes you think that?

Think the only changes I'd make would be seve and heikennen together as they had one killer season together, and bring arnason into cb alongside ando. That and have kjaer in goal!

Sounded like a deserved draw in the end, two dodgy penalties apparently. Gollum at his shitey finest

1-0 down at the moment. Sounds like a messy and very wet affair.

According to the club 16k tickets were sold before Christmas eve, hopefully a good crowd and 3 points will do

Merry Christmas donstalkers!

One of my mates is a journalist and I asked him about this a few years back. Essentially Christmas and summer school holidays are silly season for journalists and hence why news stories like the above make it to national news. Slow news days. However, I don't disagree with your point though, numbing the masses.

Wow....no bandy legs or those that BigAl said, ridiculous. Suppose it is a weegie paper...

Section Y, merkland and RDS upper tickets only remain

From today's retard, pretty much says what both TD and DM have been saying since they arrived, no new arrivals unless necessary. However, I would expect both Mclaughlin and Parker to disappear into obscurity since they've been non existent over the past few weeks. It seems like they'll be two we'll replace rather get youth in.

Fergahun above mcghee? Jesus wept. The only right thing a out that list is that they've placed two cunts together. McGhee and macnamara. Intrigued to see the top 10...

I'm not an arsenal fan but I never understand the criticism levelled at Wenger. He's been building for a couple of years now and whilst I think there were times he probably should have invested, he's gradually started doing so. The stadium has been paid off (I think?) and there is now money available. He started with Giroud, Callum Chambers, then jumped up to Ozil and Sanchez. Cech was a master stroke, i'm still amazed Chelsea let him go to a rival, on a free. Don't get me wrong, i've laughed long and hard at Arsenal fans for all their talk they always failed to win a trophy after those halcyon days. But they're now in a better position than most of the bigger clubs. I will give you his lack of ruthlessness though, seems a soft touch, but I wouldn't say he isn't a winner because of it. He know's how to win but until now I don't think he's allowed himself the resources to do so for one reason or another.

Looks like the club are predicting a crowd of about 16k, I'd hope for a few more to be honest! I'm sure we used to get about 18K for the same fixture did we not?

Fair enough, I think much of what he did was missed and what he didn't do (nor was it his job description imo) was highlighted, incorrectly.

I think that's a bit harsh. Ozil has had a brilliant season so far and I think he's definitely won over those doubters (there are many within a fickle Arsenal support). I've always enjoyed watching him and I never really understood why Mourinho marginalised him until he did the same to Mata at Chelsea. The problem is, these players aren't exactly his type of player but I think Wenger has changed this somewhat this season. I've seen Ozil track back, not necessarily make tackles but certainly puts himself about. He is also now on 16 assists, and considering it's only half way through the season, he's only going to add to that bar any serious injuries. He's had to dig deep a number of times and generally if he plays badly, the whole of the team appears to. A thoroughly enjoyable player to watch and Arsenal are very lucky to have him. One of the few World Class footballers in the premier league. I just hope Leicester can keep their squad together and fit. It's shaping up to be quite an interesting season with all the other bigger teams toiling. Watford, Palace, Everton, Leicester and to a degree Spurs are all adding to the entertainment.
