First news of an Arsenal transfer but it's all pretty dull

Hilarous watching the united fans now who were soooo happy to dish out lectures on supporting your manager when we had Dinosaur Hodgson in charge...

It's the monkeys, not the organ grinder.

They also did a banner, too?

Lets face it, no club or fans exist in a vacuum [insert liverpool gag]...we're all a bunch of whoppers. I saw most of the Everton game and the Welsh were just as silent and moany as anywhere else is the Prem.

BTW
WTF

GTF

Glaucoma?

What is it with northern clubs? They love a banner...

Apologies if repost

Mine? or the site?

Thanks Ramires. surprised he didn't go to the continent esp italy, think he would have done well there, but can't blame him for wanting to cash in and go to China.

I actually really like him, he's got tenacity, great set of lungs and strong on the ball. £20M is good money I reckon and it should mean RLC gets more of a look in.

Hope the Chinese pay Roman in a lump sum.

Yep agreed always did a great job and ran his sox off for the team, hope that it does mean RLC is moving up the pecking order.

I had a chat with my neighbour the other day who is on the Spurs fans committee. Apparently the club have cancelled all the affordable housing on the new stadium site citing lack of finances. So it will only be luxury housing. In Haringey. Good one.

was reading about it, it's something to do with the viability of the project, for them to be financially able to include social housing they have to be making a certain percentage of profit, if they don't hit that, the number of social houses goes down, in this case to nothing...

It's lies. Social housing in big schemes is a fucking joke. Its a lie told to planners

It's well known that developers fiddle the stats on viability assessments because councils lack the expertise and legal backup to challenge them. I have no doubt that Spurs are shafting their own community on this. I'd be surprised if these flats cost more than £250-300/sqft to build (ex. land costs etc), they will be sold on the market for at least three times that amount (although now the government has deemed an 'affordable' house is £450k I doubt many developers will be charging less than that from now on)

The guardian did a big thing about it.

oof

It's already started mate. Have you not seen our recent form?

Well at least you're consistent in losing by three.

Fucking ridiculous.

We played better than we have recently until giving the first penalty away. Then giving away an obvious handball in the area for a second penalty was the nail in the coffin. Their fourth was as luck as you can get. Then we just lost any confidence and offered nothing in the final third.

Hopefully a match against a similarly out of form team on Friday will help.
