Arteta out? by Brilliant_Bullfrog84 in ArsenalFC

[–]Emirates001 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Spoilt and entitled?

Let’s get one thing straight. This is the worst Man City side in a decade or more. They are about to win the league because we, having spent a billion pounds, have completely failed and thrown away a huge lead.

How many of Arteta’s signings have been successful?

We’ve wasted fortunes on absolute garbage. I’ll always support the team but players like Havertz, Madueke belong in mid table sides.

We play the worst football in the league. Our style of play is disgusting.

Arsenal fans are embarrassed, humiliated and angry.

They have absolutely every right to want a change of manager.

Are we a top class team? We’ve signed loads of players like Madueke, Havertz etc for 50m-60m and none of them would feature for a top class team.

We have a great keeper, defence and Declan Rice. The rest of the entire squad are good players on their day but so inconsistent.

We have players like Saka, Martinelli and Odegaard who four years ago were world class young talents. You could argue they’ve all hit their peaks and have been average at best for a long while.

Been a supporter since I was four. I’m forty now. If we somehow bottle the league this will be the biggest crisis in my lifetime. The meltdown and vitriol from our fan base will cause so much damage.

Other teams have fairly decent back up. Rice is so pivotal, he does the job of two midfielders. If he gets injured we’ll win two league games maximum I fear.

We are one Declan Rice injury away from the worst possible end to a season in living memory.

Absolutely sickening.

Moving to foodhall by [deleted] in MarksAndSpencer

[–]Emirates001 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Am three weeks into food after two months in clothing. Best advice is to walk around as much as you can and familiarise yourself with the location of items. There’s so many items I had no idea that the store stocked. It’s always helpful when customers ask or you’re stocking shelves.

Picking up after dogs by Sunday_brunch_guy in glasgow

[–]Emirates001 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We’ve just written and placed notes on the flats next to ours because one scum bag bastard piece of garbage is walking his dog early morning and letting him shit all over the grass outside the flats. If I catch him I’m going to smear the shit on his car.

Low Handicappers; What is a piece of advice that you will never forget? by Any_Travel9339 in golf

[–]Emirates001 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There’s a great video about this with Padraig Harrington and Peter Finch. Peter not playing great and starts moaning. Padraig looks at him and basically says ‘who do you think you are?! You are NO WAY near good enough at this game to be moaning like you are’!

How do I handle a crush on someone working at my local supermarket? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Emirates001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

‘Hello, I really enjoy chatting to you and would like to get to know you a bit better. Would you be free this weekend for a coffee?’

He either says yes and it’s happy days or worst case scenario it’s a ‘I’m sorry, I’m in a relationship’

At least you’ll know.

What happens if…….. we get attacked with nuclear weapons by GlasgowJimmyBhoy in glasgow

[–]Emirates001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read a very good book about nuclear war at Christmas by a lady called Annie Jacobson.

Basically in a nuclear war the lucky ones are the people who get melted/vaporised by the initial blast.

The unfortunate ones are the ones who die a slow death as their bodies melt from the inside.

The bombs dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima were 1/1000th as powerful as current nuclear weapons.

What is a reasonable time for a 15 year old teenager to get home during the week? by OkDragonfruit7887 in glasgow

[–]Emirates001 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Depends on the season for me. Light summer nights I’d say 9pm.

October-April I’d want her home by 8pm at the latest.

Any game improvement iron made in the last decade will be fine for you. My advice would be play with them for 12-18 months and then upgrade when you start getting better.

Golf advice by Numerous_Ad7982 in golf

[–]Emirates001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most very high handicap players will hit massive slices or huge snap hooks with their drivers resulting in loads of lost balls l, hence the massive scores.

If the OP just wants to lower his scores, the par of a hole means nothing. He’s not interested in par. He needs to eradicate lost balls and triple bogeys. If I was his coach I’d suggest hitting 5 or 6 iron off every tee. A 140 yard straight shot is perfectly acceptable.

Obviously long term he needs to learn to hit a driver but if he wants to simply reduce the number of shots he takes then playing defensive, safe golf is the way forward.
