I've answered this before: as a supporter since boyhood, when they were still in Woolwich, Wenger remains by far the best manager we have had since Allison, maybe even since Chapman (ok, I'm not really old enough to remember either of those), but certainly in my memory. I do remember the 1970s when we won little with a brilliant team and the lost early eighties. And while the 1989 league title was thrilling, most of George Graham's reign gave little satisfaction despite the reasonable haul of silverware. Just compare the 1990-'91 almost-invincibles to the 2004 real deal: I was not a fan of the 1-0 to the Arsenal era.

Wenger has brought us exhilarating - and frequently hair-rending - entertainment; a fantastic new stadium and the greatest record of consistency and achievement since the 1930s. This was all done without becoming the plaything of some odious oligarch. And he is a decent bloke to boot.

So in short, Wenger for life!

It gets you the FA Cup! I know you don't understand how that feels even though we gifted you UEFA cup football.... At least I was around to watch the last time your lot got one: old Mick Channon and Osgood - as an apprentice ABU I remember that being a good day...

I was there when Seamen broke my (and Brett Ormerod's) heart.

Why couldn't he have let it in? We'd have caved in extra time but a goal would have been unbelievable.

Miss Ann Thrope

You got UEFA Cup football (since we were still CL regulars then); stop crying already.

We lost to Steauaueueauau Bucharest. It was awful.

I hope Wenger stays for a number of reasons:

1. He deserves to.
2. What he's done for that football club is nothing short of phenomenal.
3. He's earned the right to.
4. Arsenal Fan TV if you don't win every game next season will be utterly fantastic blud, fam, yougetme.

It won't let me give you any karma for this because apparently I must be your biggest fanboy and I need to spread it around. Anyway I can't be arsed trying to find some other c*** to give karma to so you'll have to settle for this...

Typical, why don't you answer the question as opposed to giving a load of shit about history. The question has a simple yes or no answer....

Don't be worried about offending people snowflake, get off the fence, as you know, I do - and Rafa is the best thing that's happened to Newcastle in my lifetime (yep I include Keegan and SBR (Despicable the way he was sacked) in that too).

You could start an argument with your shadow in a room with no light.

Last three words of my post might be a clue though I realise that presents an intellectual challenge for you of data interpretation, what with facts and information not being your strong suits..

you guys hijacked this thread with your footi bakwaas

Miss Ann Thrope

There you are... How's the fasting going? Into a rhythm by now?

mission

going good Alhumdulillaah
although yesterday i majorly struggled from 5pm onwards.....had to sleep to kill the time till Iftar

I thought that's what everyone here did?

Fasting's too hard so get the government to shorten the day so you can sleep all afternoon and not have to worry?

mission

SCAMP, i don't like to sleep during the day coz then it messes up my sleeping at night time and so i never take a nap while fasting......but the last couple of days it's been a struggle....Inshallaah it'll get better as the body tries to adjust to the fastings

Miss Ann Thrope

I know when it's going through the toughest phase as my OH will constantly text me random pictures of food that he's found on the internet
1-4pm seems to be the peak...
