    I wasn't able to rep Wanye for both legendary posts, but I guess one is good enough.

    I had the same problem. But it's nice to know that some of us out there still get it.

    u americans and your sence of valour and 'true support'

    its all subjective, imo u dont improve unless you try to remove the faults....constructive criticism does not make u any less of a fan or supporter than someone who refuses to see errors

    Trust me, i learned everything i know from going out and travelling with the away supporters.


    Sometimes it's tough to tell what level of criticism is constructive. It's nice to be realistic, but never let those doubts get in the way of the dream. Y'know?

    I don't think we are that bad. But we are too soft; we concede points to garbage clubs. I want other teams to really work hard for their goals against us, not just get a set piece and get a goal.

    I don't mind people complaining, that's what fans do. It's good to see them dissapointed that we lost, shows good spirit I say.

    Lastly, even though Arsene is a good manager to us, he is not always right.

    booing Ade because he wanted (and got) more money from a club he never wanted to leave is constructive criticism? :confused:

    ade handled the situation badly, my point is if u pay the immense fees to watch arsenal egularly then u can do what u want, weather it helps is another thing

    i see your point anti, i love arsenal and will always stand up for them but im having massive doubts this season after the transer saga...

    PLASE tell me that wasn't you saying how quickly they forget, JS, after your almost Maoist historical revisionism about the 04 side's quality in the "Just Saying" thread - this would be an all-time ironic post contender....

    Not sure what you mean by "valour" in this context, or why are you singling out the Americans. (And that would be "valor" surely? ;) )

    At least one English fan has said that voicing constructive criticism doesn't means you're not a "true" supporter, or that errors haven't been made. Most of the gripes are about the lack of balance in some of the posts, not about people's support of the club.

    I'm not thrilled about the current situation but I've been through much worse times than this and just don't see the need to castigate the management of the club and the team to the extent that some are doing.

    Good perspective Judy. It's easy to forget how close Arsenal came to being relegated in the mid 70s. Jeff Blocker at the back, ugh. :(
