  1. Is Gibbs a starter for Arsenal? Don't really know a whole lot about him, besides that he plays LB.
  2. "Why is it standard that gold medallists will bite their medals while posing for the cameras? The gesture apes the age-old test for checking whether a coin is gold. If it's really gold, the teeth should leave a small indentation. Some say the test was primarily for a lead-based fake, which would be even softer than gold. Now it's become the equivalent at the Olympics of a victorious FA Cup player using the trophy lid as a hat. So why do they do it? Largely, they are responding to requests from photographers to "kiss it" or "bite it". Many now anticipate it. American Marti Malloy, who has earned a bronze medal for judo at the current Games, offered to strike the traditional pose. "I've been working on my bite," she said at the time. "I'm not sure if it should be mean or happy." The gesture goes back a long way. John Regis remembers doing it at the 1991 world championships. "When I was a kid, my mother used to buy us those chocolate coins wrapped in gold foil. I was just making sure it wasn't chocolate," jokes Regis. But there are dangers. In February 2010, during the winter Games a German luger broke a corner off his front tooth after biting down on his medal. And while the 2012 medal might be one of the biggest ever, the "gold" one only contains 1.34% gold." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-19047586
  3. Did they disagree on double promotion? Who was this 'twitterer'?
  4. Steve Corns ‏@Cornsy69 Excellent performance tonight, unfortun8 2 concede a worldy goal but generally bossed the game!! #positive
  5. Nice strong side. Interesting to see that JWP is starting in the stronger XI, ahead of Davis and Cork.
  6. Was at the ticket office yesterday sorting out a ST issue and the guy said "barely any" sold. I reckon 2,000 max
  7. Would all fit in - scouting the Dutch leagues, need a CB, Japanese.
  8. I'm more than happy with Hooiveld and Kelvin. I think we need a new CB in place of Fonte and then possibly another to challenge Jos (but that is less urgent). I think Kelvin is fine, I couldn't see us signing a keeper to immediately displace him anyway. I'm not Fox's biggest fan, but there seems to be a split over whether he could cut it or not. If we're getting another left-back in then fine, get it done, asap.

  10. I will be quite worried if we don't have a CB in by the end of the week. Not got a problem with us bring a load of new players in, provided it's done with plenty of time before the season starts.

  12. Nothing I wrote was complete ********. Realising you're a t!t and trying to analyse an argument you've lost.
  13. I think I pity you for about 90% of your football-related posts over the last 3 years.
  14. Personally I think that would put Luke Shaw at a value of about £4m and he looks like he will be worth a hell of a lot more than that in the future.
  15. Maybe if it was the "bleeding obvious" you would wouldn't have been "stunned into silence". You sir, are embarrassing.
  16. Best of luck to him, was crucial in our promotion out of League 1 and always played his heart out.
  17. He's obviously just waving at the German national team. Besides, the Nazi salute was with the right hand.

  19. Not sure on the block, but looks like CC 827 to me. Sounds about right for the Kingsland North-ish corner.
  20. Staying up would be brilliant and I feel it should be the expectation with the money we're spending and team we have built.
  21. GGOOOOOOOAAAALLLLLLLLL! Stunner, too. Why on earth are the skates in red and white?
  22. Unfortunately it is real
  23. Agreed
  24. I'll be very interested to see what happens with the 4 youngsters this season, especially considering the amount of pre-season game time they're getting and the obvious impact they are having as well.
  25. Might be interested for some future games, but already booked up on the train to City unfortunately.
