If Porto was the performance of the season, then Hull was landing back on earth, back with the toothless attack we're all too familiar with.
At the end of it all, we won courtesy of a Bendtner goal at the death.
The ref obviously has srsly issues. Who would blame Steven Gerrard for giving him the 'V' sign a week ago. This wuss of a ref didn't see the need for further action either, after being on the receiving end of a demeaning gesture. His incompetence prevailed in this game and hull's goal, shouldn't have even been a goal because their striker was in a obvious offside position that the linesman missed as well, despite the rugby lines on the Godforsaken pitch. Blind bastards this bunch is.
The ref and his shitty madness we have no control of so I'll drop it here. The league simply does not possess top class refs for top class football.
George Boateng, captain of Hull City, led his team out to carry out the instruction of Phil Brown which was pretty obvious - to once again, get into Arsenal's faces. This time though, not so lucky for him. The bummer about the incident surrounding his first yellow was Bendtner being booked as well for being poked in the eye. Yet another stupid call by the blind bald linesman. That was a straight red for Boateng. Had he been sent off there and then he wouldn't have had another chance to have a go at an Arsenal player, this time with a rash challenge on Sagna. 2 challenges that deserved a straight red. Do you see anyone else doing it to any other team?
So, despite being level at 1-1 and having the one-man advantage, Arsenal didn't make it count at all.
I guess this has to be the negative of the game.
The shine of Porto simply wore off.
But credit to the lads who kept going and for Bendtner to not miss. Arshavin was having a bendtner-day with shots that he would have buried easily.
Having played in Europe already last week, we have an entire week to recover. Hopefully, the lads will put in a better shift when West Ham visit next week, West Ham who totally crumbled at Stamford Bridge. They're not going to give us a game as easy as that though. I'd imagine Cesc to be back by then. It's quite obvious that he is still that bit of quality we need. We'll definitely get Song back too.
8 games to go.Labels: fucking blind referee, Hull City, what kind of fuckery is this

For the most pessimistic of fans out there, we actually have a result that went our way.
Chelsea only managed a 1-1 draw with Hull City at the KC Stadium.
It's more good news for United really, since they're only 2 points off Chelsea. The table is somewhat easier to look at now with all 3 teams being level on games played. We're 6 points off Chelsea and we play them at the weekend.
The team knows that it's a massive game. In fact, this run of 4 games were all massive but they crumbled like cookies against United. If they're itching to set the records straight then they have to at Stamford Bridge. If they do not even put on a fighting display then I'm ready to concede the title. Sometimes the result doesn't matter. Desire and effort shows for it too and if you have both then you're most probably going to come away with something, barring complications.
Yet again, the team who stands to gain this weekend is United. The result from the Chelsea-Arsenal game would yet again be influential.
I don't believe in calling games a 'must-win' since Arsenal is a top team and they're supposed to win every game.
So I guess every Arsenal fan is hoping against all hope that something special happens. It's times like these where you can see where the real fans are. Those who call for the head of Wenger should seriously take their own head. He brought us the good times, and has taken us through the ugly. He has made several miscalculations but they aren't light decisions. At this point, we can only trust that he knows what he's doing and the team will wake up.
A screaming Arsene would be a great welcome. He can start throwing boots in people's faces too. IDK, just get it together already and prove the world wrong.Labels: Chelsea, Hull City

Fallout 3 is a freaky game to play in the dead of the night.
Or that's just me.
Anyway. The Daily Mail has people who do their jobs actually, despite the contrary. They published the full Michael Owen brochure.
lol.
Like I said, the only person who'll buy into that piece of rubbish is Phil Brown. Owen's lactlustre performance for Newcastle did them no favours in their relegation fight and I'm sure the purpose of his agent to release such a document is to attract big clubs with big money to throw and not lowly Hull City, who should have been relegated anyway. How will he be motivated to play for the likes of Hull when he couldn't for Newcastle, a much bigger club?
I have one theory.
If Newcastle had survived then he would have to stay, won't he?
No excuses about them not being in the top flight, no excuses on his pay package either.
This happens when people stop being the professionals that they were.
There is a list containing the 50 highest salary earners in football and it's just shameful, at least to me.
I didn't know Arsha was the highest paid at Arsenal. He's the only gunner on the list. Gallas didn't make it and Cesc didn't either. Cashley's on it and we all know why. Anyhow, it's not difficult to see why Chelsea is heavily in debt. Abramovic has a money printing machine stashed somewhere to finance all the loans to the club. Someday if he pulls out or decides to sell the club and buy a boat instead because the boat is less of a cunt, the there goes Chelsea.
And Cuntley Cunt.
Wenger says no one's leaving. That's a little hard to believe and if that's the case then it is unclear who is first choice centrebacks don't you think? I suspect a centre back will leave at least, and if the right offer comes in for Adebayor he's gone too. The silver inning of this article is that Wenger has at least 1 or 2 more targets in mind. Yeah baby.
Just when I thought doing nothing was fantastic I got bored of doing nothing and hence I'm going to start doing something and get ma freak on.
I think daily/frequent updates might dwindle but I don't think I am popular enough to cause some big uproar, of sorts.
Heh.

I'll show you what's funny:
Earlier in June, Owen's management company sent a brochure to potential buyers to remind them of the talent that saw him score 158 goals in about 300 games for Liverpool and 40 goals in 89 appearances for England.
With respect to Michael Owen.
Guess who's buying into the PR?
Hull City's moron king Phil Brown.
He seems to have a knack for paying good money for players who are past their best and injured 70% of the season. Earlier in January he bought Jimmy Bullard who went on to be injured for the rest of the season after his debut.
A bonus is that he doesn't need to pay a transfer fee for Owen, just his exorbitant wages. They'll be looking at losing £100,000 per week for someone who'll be hogging the treatment table, lying just next to Jimmy.
Chances are, they'll become Hull's BFF pairing of the next season.
Arsenal's BFF to everyone though, isn't having a very good time on the transfer market. He's placed himself in the shop window but those who come knocking aren't good enough for him, in accordance to whatever he thinks his calibre should be deserving of.
Florentina is a no-no.
I can't imagine how another season with Eboue will be like. Will he have another boo-ing session at the Emirates? Or get sent off against Sp*rs for something silly again?
We'll never know until it happens.
It's been pretty quiet now right after someone has signed. Give it a few days and the media will be in full swing yet again.
I miss Gilberto. He would have been quite the figurehead. In Wenger's terms perhaps, keeping Gilberto would kill Song and Denilson. From a fan's point of view, I don't see how they could have died because of that. Throwing Denilson in so early when he wasn't ready probably was one of the chief factors which killed our last campaign. Admirably, he did do what he can to the best he can but at the Premier League level it wasn't enough. All our midfield frailties were exposed so badly I remember Danny Murphy dominating our midfield when we played Fulham.
That clearly shouldn't be happening. Regardless of who dies, I think we really need a midfield hardman quite badly.
After that, we just need everyone (including Rosicky) to just stay fit like their lives depend on it.
All our problems will be solved and we'll win the quadruple next season.

Mooo. Am being dragged out of the house. Feel like pang-seh-ing.
Heh. But I can't. I'll get murdered. Friday nights are best spent at home with my computer and my games instead of squeezing with the weekend crowd or worst still, have a night out and incur cab fare. Or get drunk.
My last night out was worth $28.20 in cab fare and twice as much in drinks. And I didn't get drunk!
*moans about tonight.
Thomas Vermaelen is due to undergo a medical at Arsenal today and complete his transfer.
Might be some news if it's posted on the official site since everytime I hit refresh I am disappointed.
I'm playing Football Manager to get by, with the updated patch. Updated patch does not contain Arshavin. Still. It's a patch which adds more rubbish and perhaps is more realistic and enough to frustrate my brains inside out.
1) Bendtner underperforming and the fans voicing their concerns
2) every damn goalkeeper I play against is always in top form
3) Newcastle is in top 4
4) Denilson is a wonderkid :O
Then there are certain things which are true reflections:
1) Hull City is foul. Bad bad bad disciplinary record. Relegation battling team.
2) Diaby and Rosicky are never fit.
On the not so virtual football side of things, the England U21s beat Spain 2-0. What a surprise. Spain hasn't scored in the tournament yet? They drew their opening game 0-0. Bojan, Bojan.
I still hate Stuart Pearce. But I love Theo for being the professional he is. Wherever he is, however he's treated, he gives his all. That's Theo for you. He does things to the best he can.
I've seen Cesc's new haircut quite a few times and it is bad. Baaad. Like a mini mohawk but a more outrageous version of Robin's. They had better not share barbers. Zohan will come and get you.
I am dying in my room. It's in a mess from unpacking and I have no storage space. Feel like throwing every piece of junk away. Solve all my problemos.Labels: booze is my downfall, Cesc Fabregas, Hull City, Robin Van Persie, Theo Walcott, transfer window hoo-ha

England is the land of opportunities. Actually, it's America.
I learnt a valuable lesson today: do not watch Britain's Got Talent while eating.
You might throw up. There is so much more bad than good. I caught episode 5 of season 3 which aired on Saturday and they went to Birmingham. Apparently there aren't talented people there. Gareth Barry might want to go on stage and perform magic or something. Like a vanishing act and say sayonara, I'm appearing in Liverpool. 3 yeses to that?
Martin Tayor could show how he did his horror studs out tackle for no reason since the player wasn't even going on goal and he'll get 3 Xs before he starts. And then 3 nos.
Birmingham, city of cunts.
Normally entertainment comes from America. But Simon Cowell created BGT and it's got me hooked.
Imagine Adebayor and Eboue going on stage and performing a dance for BGT. Confirm 3 NOs. Although Adebayor makes a better dancer than a footballer so that means he really sucks at kicking a ball. His commitment level is attrocious and he has all summer to fix that or say goodbye. Could do the same vanishing act as Gareth Barry. I doubt he'll be staying at Villa after their failed campaign. I do remember Arsenal being interested but fell short at the price tag, which is always the case. Wenger always wants quality at a bargain and I'm not sure how that is beneficial. In the case of Arshavin, it could have been more but because he was cup-tied for the Champion's League, that greatly reduced the transacted price.
And now we've all been left to imagine how things would have turned out if he had been playing in our European games. If we got him last summer and paid, perhaps, 5-10 million more, the outcome of this season could have been dramtically different.
But that's a gamble the boss doesn't seem to want to take ever. He likes to balance the books as much as balancing the team but it somehow shows that he does his financial planning better.
Experienced players are what we need now and he says he needs 2 so we'll be waiting for those 2 arrivals amidst the big names more linked with Man Citeh. They want David Villa with Valencia's financial woes but Villa is a player who would take pay cuts just to stay at the team he loves. How often do you get that? Villa to Man City is definitely not happening unless Valencia forces him out of the club. A more probably destination if he had to leave would be Pool to join Torres and that would make me throw up my lunch more than watching BGT while eating.
Of course, we all know Villa is best mates with Cesc but I don't see that happening because we want Villa but what we want doesn't coincide with what Arsene wants.
Some things we just know for sure.
Anyway, in response to last night's game, the boss couldn't have put in any better. We can be completely negative or just be positive. If we had won Wenger might see even lesser of a need to go out and spend the money. Losing now is way better than losing come next season. If next season is anything similar to this season I think we might all join that unfortunate gooner who hung himself. Of course, we won't actually do it. Just figuratively, die on the inside, be numb, so when the team loses we can just say whatever.
Which will not happen because I don't believe Gooners have hearts of stone for their team.
For all the passion we have, we truly need some repayment via results. Even when results do not go as expected, we still love the team and look to the future. The future is what matters. Death cannot change anything. If I had to be brutal, it didn't look like that poor Gooner's death changed any of the results anyway. The team still crashed to Chelsea.
So death is never the solution. It's just normal to want to die but not carry it out. Heh.
There's an entire summer to make it right. Since 4th is all but secured, it is time to turn our attention to the other end of the table. Phil Brown and Hull going down would cheer us all up and they aren't really doing themselves any favours by losing and losing. How many times have you checked the league table and saw Hull stagnant at 34 points? hahahaha.
Tonight, it's Newcastle vs Boro and the winner will drag Hull into the bottom 3 with them out of it. Or at least on level points with Hull with only goal difference to separate the positions. If those 2 teams draw though, it'll be complete and utter rubbish. Hull City face Man Utd on the final fixture of the season so their prospects are really slim. The only way we can make Man Utd fight for a win against Hull is if we beat them at Old Trafford, with United needed the points to secure the title.
And if we lose at Old Trafford, they'll win the title and we'll be watching them lift the trophy. Frankly, some people are anticipating such a scenario but I don't see how it wouldn't help the players. If they love Arsenal so much they should let it happen. If it happens though, perhaps it could be burnt on their hearts that they should fight to do the same in the coming seasons when the opportunity arises. Sometimes these things aren't all bad. If humiliation can bring out the passion then why not.
The only problem would be if they didn't care.
In essence, to orchestrate the banishment of Hull to the championship, we need to win at Old Trafford. Phil Brown and Brian Horton can take their spitting hallucinations with them out of the top flight and justice will be done.

A Little Drunken Madness @ 3:11 PM
Geez. As if there isn't enough drama already on TV.
Hull City's staff have fantastic imagination. Either that or some part of the London sky decided to rain briefly on Brian Horton. I think Horton and this comes to mind:
.jpg)
I love this elephant and Jim Carey as the voice actor was like perfect. Loved the movie.
Then one Brian Horton comes and destroys all good memories.
Cesc has denied any amount of spit left his mouth and there is no doubt there. he video above is to show how far away he was from those shits who are firing all the accusations possible. What a load of retards. Like complete retards. They lost a game and compromised 99.9% of their intelligence hence certain hallucinations.
Horton must be high on drugs or the Emirates lights are too bright.
Brown is such a sore bitter loser and frankly, if he thought that by his anger and whinning his players will build on that and go from strength-to-strength in their final 9 games, I am just waiting to see how wrong he is.
Another manager who is very fuckin wrong is Mark Hughes.
After failing to land Kaka (bahaha) and whatever super star who wouldn't swap their team colours for the blue of city, he has now claimed that Arshavin is having trouble adapting, as with his on-loan to Everton striker Jo. Jo who was signed for close to 20m in the summer and had at least 6 months to adapt before making that switch to Everton because he simply cannot make it (cmi). If Hughes' aim was to be subtle, I think it didn't work. How does anyone fit Jo and Arshavin in one sentence when they never played each other?
Andrey on the other hand has fit in very very well and he has become pivotal to the Arsenal attack. He became that spark we needed and essentially has lifted the team to where we are now, in all of a month and a half. Another manager with no perspective and bad judgement.
If Robinho leaves in the summer there goes City and their big plans.
Maybe Arshavin can punish City when they come visit.Labels: Andrei Arshavin, Cesc Fabregas, Hull City, Man City
A Little Drunken Madness @ 10:22 PM
The job is done. The team will be heading to Wembley.
It wasn't as straight forward as Blackburn but yea, it still feels soooo damn good.
First things first, Hull goalkeeper Myhill. Time wasting tactics was his undoing. And twice in a row he decides to crash into his own player, only the first, Bendtner screwed up yet another shot. I hate time wasters. This shits can go to hell. And they always get bitten in the butt.
Bendtner. His persistence led to the equaliser. I think his physical presence up front really makes a difference in the league. He's getting better even though his shots are either blocked or well wide but he's trying. If he didn't come on I don't think we could have had this turnaround.
Eboue was hoping to snatch someone else's goal again when Bendtner had a shot saved by Myhill. He was all ready to stab in the rebound but didn't manage to. Hah. He came on for Walcott who was kept pretty quiet throughout.
Hull rode their luck for a while. They came to the Emirates with the belief that they could come away with a win the same way in September. Then their stroke of luck came soon enough courtesy of Johan Djourou. As a defender, if you plan on committing to the challenge, it's important to be 100% committed. Don't just stick out a stray leg which then gets punished with a deflection. In all honesty, I think Fabianski had it covered because it did look like a shot straight at the keeper. Nonetheless, that early goal gave Hull the cushion to start their negative tactics + time wasting.
Like that ever works. Did no one tell them that the Arsenal bombardment increases with time? Did no alarm bells ring when two fresh attackers took the pitch? Guess not. We were going for the win and that made the difference. Besides, Hull suffered tired legs. Can't ever play like that against a sublime Arsenal.
Not that we were fantastic. I could say we won ugly but who cares. Arshavin got another assist. He cooly laid the ball for Van Persie to smash home. Robin knew just where the goal was. Captain Robin 1 Hull 1.
The winning goal was kinda scrappy but I really can't tell if the ball came off Myhill's arm or Djourou's head. Whatever it is, good for Gallas to put the ball into the back of the net. Another crucial goal from him. He's been dry as of late.
That's it for now. I think Phil Brown is an idiot. At least in front of the camera when Hull 'scores' and he misses either the whistle or the flag. Ha ha ha. I bet he'll be whining after the match about being robbed yada yada whatever. After beating Arsenal there was talk about European qualification and I look at the table now and laugh my fuckin ass off.
P.S. Manucho look better the last game at Hull after he crashed into Djourou and got a larger face. I almost didn't recognise him today.
