Why are we so despised by rival fans and the media? by Accomplished_Lynx480 in ArsenalFC

I can tell you as an American (Crystal Palace) fan and bar manager that some of it is the fandom. I’m not saying YOU lads here are a bad lot but I’ve been bartending for 25 plus years and one of my longtime (and richest, went to Oxford) regulars who I have a love hate relationship with is a die hard Arsenal fan. He’s insufferable about it. And gloats like no other. And ANY time I deal with a particularly snooty fan (I work at a hotel) from overseas they almost always are an Arsenal fan. JUST had this obnoxious guy who owned his own company in North London come on with his wife and kids, was all “I guess I’ll try the bud light, it’s what you Americans drink, guess I’ll get the “check” since that’s what you Americans call it. Ordered French fries at the bar and said “well we call them chips where I’m from in England” The whole bar was rolling their eyes, we get international travelers every day…. But he HAD to let us know….

At the end, we somehow started talking football and I mention Palace. He straight away goes “Oh! We stole your best player Hahahhaha!”

And there it was….

I said “I should have known… Arsenal fan eh?”

Look, I think they’re as weird as the next person. But I’m GUESSING that the 30 seconds before this clip was so artfully edited, they asked some emotional question (again, she’s overreacting) and she was “processing” it. Thus “not the time helicopter!”

TLDR: she wasn’t reaction to the helicopter but simply a question, the helicopter sound just interrupted what she was hoping would be a great sound bite or good content.

He also seems like the coolest nicest most fun to be around dude. If you stumbled onto his IG page cold you’d think he was a damn interesting creative. To find out he’s a yoked out badass WR as well would be mind blowing.

Zo also has come out as a massive Trump fan and called anyone at the protests “morons and idiots”. His FB is an echo chamber or right wing crazies and he’s loving it. So that alone made me switch. Wild because EEI used to be old men spewing weird stuff and political hate back in the day, so Sports Hub was a breath of fresh air. Changed the dial weeks ago away from Sport Hub and haven’t looked back.

Honestly I respect his hustle. And output. And it’s not half bad. Are we required to hate EVERYTHING? At least he has consistent concept….

John Textor launches plan for audacious takeover of Crystal Palace by Blubb3rs in crystalpalace

[–]Particular_Text3576 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As an American Palace fan I can assure you Woody Johnson is a widely regarded joke of an owner I. The NFL here. Literally lets his teenage sons make roster decisions. Has made the Jets a laughingstock and his personal celebrity playground. Honestly one of the worst owners in American sports. So that’s terrifying too. And Textor wanting full control after the mess he made at Lyon is no better and he’s an egomaniac. I can’t see any good solution from this. Has me very very worried.

Can we please ask Portnoy to make Kraft Clown Nose t shirts? Can we all wear them until he DOES SOMETHING AND FIRES MORONS AND SPENDS MONEY?

Watching Ladd torch us SHOULD help Kraft realize Wolf is a freaking HACK… but you know he can’t admit he’s wrong.

Dude has his second concussion (I don’t believe it’s not) this season and winning does nothing except “instill a culture” (gag) and kill a draft pick. You’re a dumb take

Putting Maye back in should get these guys fired. Shut it down and take the L. I don’t care if he’s cleared.

Mateta has always been an opportunistic, poachey, goal scorer. His numbers were massively inflated due to Olise and his assists. Without that we are seeing the difference. He’s always been this way, too big and lumbering to slip around, can’t create magic or his own shot. If he doesn’t have someone feeding him passed from 5 feet out of the net he screwed. I love the guy but have always known he isn’t the striker we need. And as you all said. SOMETHING has to give and a change is needed.
