... why does football have to be about money?

*sulk*

See, the fact that Manu had done this and Arsenal never had was another reason for loving Arsenal and having very little respect for Manu. So David Dein turning round and saying 'but Manu did it! So we should too!' really doesn't endear him to me.

oh sweetie, but it's just shares and capital - it's little to do with quality on the pitch. or does it? :)

as a red devil, i actually do have a little bit respect for the Gunners... especially when they get the red cards... :) (now, don't hit me, i'm quite fragile...

*grin* I know I know, but I'm a raving anarcho-communist at heart. If they're having to make decisions to please shareholders as well as decisions to affect on the field stuff, and they have the wrong people pushing at the wrong time... it's kinda like privatisation, I have images of it all going wrong - "I know, let's sell Henry so we can give our shareholders a big fat christmas bonus and raise our stock market position. It's nearly as good as raising out league position."
Not that that happens with Manu. But it's the principle of the thing.

And as for the red cards... well, Vierra has some leeway in my heart, but Henry grrrr silly boy should know better.
