If you come across any new sites let us know and we'll have a butcher's. Public Service Announcement A
word for anyone who wants a link. We would be delighted for your link to
appear here, but we warn you; we don't carry paid advertising- of any
sort. That includes the cheap bastards who offered us £20.00 to stick a
pug ugly web banner on one of our pages. Listen pal, we work in advertising
and we know exactly how much media spaces are sold for. Your attempt to
get something for nothing is typical of you wet behind the ears net
shysters. You have been warned. Well, it's like the
programme in some respects; glossy, vacuous and soon to be expensive
(see below). And yet, totally unlike the programme in other ways; the
ink doesn't come off on your hands and you can't roll it into the tube
and stick it in the cat's ear when he's asleep, shout down it and watch
him grip the ceiling like a Warner Bros cartoon. Then again it's a lot
like the programme in that the powers that be will be shortly charging
you for the privilege for downloading all sorts of cack that you can
probably live without. As a site, use it sparingly. Hype is hype, even
if it is red and white. Look for a big copyright pogrom by the big boys
soon yanking off images and videos from the fan sites. During the season this is the site all the Fantasy Football fans haunt looking for news of Ipswich midfield catastrophes and surreptitious new signings by Jim Smith. A cornucopia of bad facts, mistakes and terrible rumours that have as much truth as a Jeffrey Archer testimony. But we like it. Funny site this. Interesting opinions
and the odd salient fact that appears to feature here and nowhere else.
One to watch. This is the site run by the local pressure group that is against the new Arsenal stadium. They are terrifically well organised, intelligent (up to a point) and they deeply hate the Arsenal. They do not represent the majority of people in Islington, but they do have that ferocious middle class preoccupation with their own backyards. Me, I'm sick of being told what to do and think by a bunch of people that have lived in Islington for five minutes. Go to the site- bombard them with e mails, but keep it clean, keep it cogent and have the guts to sign it. They're a minority, they're wrong and they're forcing their narrow views on a silent majority. Make some noise. General Arsenal news.
OK in a lazy way. Newsfeeds every
five minutes from all over the known universe that are completely
Arsenal. You'll drive yourself batty reading what the Aussie's think of
the minutiae of the Arsenal's groundsman's policy or the Italian's of
Lee Dixon's new patio. More information (and, it should be noted, more
utter misinformation and repetition) than any human actually needs. Good
laugh, though.
Good
fan site. Useful if everyone at work is taking the piss and you need to
have your red and white opinion confirmed or your battered ego stroked. Well,
it's Murdoch, so it does have a slight whiff of brimstone about it.
However they were the first to break the Campbell signing. And they're
pretty thorough when they're screening something. Other than that they
can't be arsed. The
best Arsenal site, bar none. Witty, thorough and independent. We can't
think of a funny, supercilious thing to say. Visit it now. Still
one of the best Arsenal sites on the web. Run from a fabled
country where fat men drinking tinnies carry around their young in
pouches in their stomachs, whilst simultaneously barbequing prawns the
size of broom heads, this site is nothing if not impressive. Five stars,
Steve. An Arsenal 'Who
was Who'. Not entirely comprehensive, but still a great stagger down
memory lane. Really nice site, makes you feel kind of warm.
It's
Arsenal, it footy and there's a gallery with loads of pictures of
Arsenal shirts. Remember the silky green away kit? The yellow and blue,
'I've just been run over by a lorry with distinctive radial patterned
tyres?' One day the new 'Shirley Bassey' goldfinger cast-off away kit
will be in here. Top site. It's
kind of like a daily funny paper, but it is run by a Spurs fan (Danny
Kelly) so take it all with a pinch of salt. Really,
the Arsenal should wind up their own site and have this one instead.
Doesn't exactly do anything different from anyone else, but it is
consistent and a great love for the red and white game does shine
through. Recommended.
