arsenal's 'guard of honour'!?

[Guest San Don]

WTF is that all about? Wenger wants the 'tradition' of english football to be maintained?

 

So how long has this been a tradition then? And does it mean every club you know who play from now to the end of the season are expected to do it? Fuck that.

[Guest davelfc]

Coming from man from a country that built a huge arch to celebrate their defeats, this kind of makes sense.

 

It's instinct.

[xerxes 1,314]

I recall several such incidents to acknowledge our tiumphs, hopefully those days will return.

 

The game after is sportsmanlike, more than that is excessive, but I remember it happening before.

[lightother 2]

Don't know if you've been to a game before, but this always happened , it's about sportsmanship and class.

I assumed it was the club that played the champions the first time after they became champions. As in it happens once. Providing a team clinches the title before the season is over obviously.

 

Its a totally irrelevant act. Until we have to do it to the cunts. Then i might have a problem with it. Until then... meh.

[Newport 273]

The fucking deserve it after being so stupid selling their best player to United.

[SCOUSE TAPAS 521]

Its always happened even before the premier league.

[Lario 1,499]

I always thought it was the first game of the following season?

[lightother 2]

It's like the whole 3 cheers thing for the team that's just stuffed yours when you played for school ! You hated it but did it because it was right ( and ya didn't want to piss off Ya PE teacher Mr Bastard)

[Funkasy 1,156]

Wenger should get a pl medal for his impact on the premier league this year by selling his biggest star to them cunts.

[fowler9 367]

yeah its nothing new so don't know why the big fuss, just hope we never have to give the cunts one

[Bobby Hundreds 10,292]

Its always been done and should be done. As sick as it makes me they are champions yet again and probably will be many many times more.

[Strontium 10,961]

Shame it's not a 21-gun salute. With live rounds.

[Preston Red 882]

Shame it's not a 21-gun salute. With live rounds.

 

I second this.

 

Preferably silver bullets to be on the safe side....

[Rambo 19]

We've had it in the past, and if a team doesn't do it they simply come across as prize bitter cunts. Not being the best is shit eh?

[AngryOfTuebrook 24,014]

The fucking deserve it after being so stupid selling their best player to United.

Agreed. I hope it tears their fucking souls out to have to prostrate themselves, the shithouse cunts.

He [rodgers] also revealed his team will give Chelsea a guard of honour when they meet next week, should Jose Mourinho’s men have won the title by then, despite vocal ­objection from Liverpool fans.

 

He explained: “This club is built on dignity, respect and class. So whoever are the champions that’s what you do.”

 

 

 

So that's all good then.

[Jairzinho 25,269]

Magnificent.

[Joe Strummer 417]

A little bit of sick in my mouth. Will not be watching.

[ritchie 729]

Maybe it's the right thing to do, but after the way they behaved at Anfield last season? Mourinho's not your mate.

 

We should be concentrated on firing the players up to spoil the party.

[Faustus 1,456]

To be honest, I wouldn't expect anything less.

 

It's not something I particularly want to see, so I'll probably nip for a strategically timed piss or pop the bar as they come out.

 

With the players though, if you don't take it as a personal slight and don't see it as a motivation to put in a performance, you're beyond helping. Given the choir boys in our team, I'm just expecting most to meekly accept their fate.

He's right though, it's not nice but it's gonna have to be done unfortunately, life's full of things you don't want to do but to snub them would make us look small time bitter bastards.

The build up to this game will be nauseating. Only to be saved by Palace stopping them and then us beating them .

[stringvest 14,062]

Has to be done.  Grin and bear it.  It's only football.

[ratcatcher 753]

Like the fucking greeting of teams on the pitch before kick off, this guard of honour stuff is shite.
