I hate Internationals 5 October, 2006
Posted by lasagnechef in Arsenal News.trackback
They’re so annoying…stealing all my news. What am I meant to write about? To be honest I don’t watch the international games. Well I followed the World Cup, watched every game, but these little Internationals between the tournaments don’t interest me. The last time England played a couple of weeks ago I didn’t watch; I think it was 3-0 or something with Crouch scoring. All I remember was the other team lost their kit and had to play in a plain one. That’s all that stood out for me. Of course I want England to win and that, it’s just I’m not bothered to watch it, if I was at home and it was on then yeah I would watch it but I don’t let it get in the way of my plans like I would with Arsenal. I don’t even know when England are playing. I think there’s one on Wednesday and one Saturday.
Anyways, what little Arsenal news there is, I will report on…Arsene Wenger had a ‘webchat’ the other day on Arsenal.com where he told us that he missed out on the signing of Eto’o, Cech and Makelele. I think there was an international clearance problem with the Petr Cech move and then Chelsea snapped him up soon after. He would’ve been a great signing, I’m a big admirer of Cech and I think he’s one of the world’s best goalies. It would’ve been great if he joined Arsenal but then we would’ve never seen Lehmann on the form he’s been on recently. Eto’o would’ve also been an amazing signing, a goal scorer like that is something we need and he’s one of the best. A partnership of Eto’o and Henry would’ve been incredible which tells you why Barca we’re so keen to get Henry this summer. Apparently it was between us and Barcelona to sign him, in the end he went to the Catalans.

And Makelele, well he’s a great player, that’s for sure, however if we bought him then we might not have seen Patrick Vieira. Paddy V was amazing for us and became a great captain, it’s a shame he moved on to go on to new challenges in Serie B but it was good while it lasted. Also if we got Makelele it would’ve halted the growth of young Cesc Fabregas. Cesc is an amazing player and whenever I think about what he might be like in the future I start drooling. Maybe Wenger looked into his crystal ball and saw what Vieira and Cesc would do for Arsenal and decided against buying Makelele. He’s one of the best central midfielders around, but what Fabregas at his age will be miles better.
Cesc has been talking about our season ahead. There’s alot of confidence in the Arsenal camp and Cesc had joined many others saying that we can win some silverware this season:
We have a game in hand. If we win it, we are two points behind Chelsea and Manchester United, so I don’t think this [start to the season] is bad or this is poor. We are playing very well. We are a strong team and we are winners. Now, we have won five games in a row. We’ve won in the Champions League and in the Premier League, so I think the confidence is high and we just have to keep going.
“I think like every team that is a winner, we just want to win everything. We have four cups - Premier League, Carling Cup, FA Cup and Champions League - and we will to try to win everything, as every team wants to win. We all know it’s really difficult, but as I said, we have a special squad with big players and we are not afraid of anything. I think we have the quality to do it, but of course it could be difficult because there are a lot of teams in Europe which are really strong as well and will want to do the same thing.
Wise words from the 19 year old, he’s reminded me that we really aren’t far behind the league leaders; hopefully we’ll put up a better fight this year than we did last. The other night I had a dream that we came 5th, it was horrible…don’t even want to talk about it. Can’t wait until these internationals are over and we can carry on with Arsenal again, I have a feeling this season will be more exiting than the last.
Gael Clichy has been saying how he’s not expecting to be put straight into the Arsenal first team. He has rightly said that even though he’s the only proper left back, he might not make the team. Arsenal best four defenders in my opinion are Kolo Toure, William Gallas, Philippe Senderos and Lauren. You could play them in a back four but you’d have waste Big Willy’s centre back qualities at left back, I don’t think he enjoys it there either. Gallas is a much better defender than Clichy but I think Gael is better for those surging runs down the left wing like a left back should. It provides a nice problem for Arsene and at least we know we’ll have quality back up in that position if anything goes wrong, touch wood.

And finally, David Dein has been elected chairman of the G-14 group. Dein-o didn’t have the best of summers as he lost his place on the FA board back in June but has bounced back to become chairman of G-14. The FA is nothing compared to this and I’m sure Dave has two fingers up to them. Not sure exactly how this is going to help AFC but nice to see our vice-chairman doing something good.
Right, thats yer lot for today. Nothing else to report on really, oh apart from the ladies beating Fulham 9-0. I hope to post again soon, it’s just a matter of what about. See you then!






We couldn’t sign Cech because the Czech Republic wasn’t in the EU then, and he had no caps at the time.
Yo Lasagna Chef?
Could you do me a favour mate?
I’m thinking of getting the new arsenal cannon design (not the full crest! can’t stand it) tattoo’d on my arm, but I can’t seem to find a picture or a design of it, anywhere.
Any chance you have one, when you where designing your header?
If so, could you possibly e-mail it to me, at:
immortalchampions@hotmail.com
Very grateful dude!
P.S. I FUCKING HATE INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL!!! GRRR…
I have one picture of just the cannon, but it’s not very good…i’ll see what i can do.
I’mnot home at the moment though but I’ll do summin later for you
btw lasagnEchef…
I’ve started a trend, reminds be when I was standing on the E in ARSENAL outside the grove and there was a group of people standing around singing he’s on E, he’s on E
Don’t know where that came from buti thought I would share it!
Any news on the rumour mill of Arsemania, Arsetalk and Gunnerblog about this portugeezer Rui something from sporting?
TOP MAN! CHEERS MATE!
Whenever you get a chance.
Sorry, LASAG-E!!-CHEF!
Lasagna, woooaaah…
Lasagna, woooaaah…
We laughed ourselves to bits…
When tottenham got the shits…
Did you see Tot’numb cry
When they didn’t qualify
That’s Lasagne

Clock End Gooner, although half Catholic my father is Jewish and many of his relatives were gassed (as you so nicely put it). There are a lot of Jewish Arsenal fans (the smart ones), Including the majority shareholder of the club… …now that we have your email, perhaps I shall send it to my friend who runs the largest spam company in the world to put you on the priority list.
What have your comments got to do with football you ignorant silly man, have you not a brain? probably not more than a neandrethal sized one. I have heard songs like that sung before and it sickens me to hear, I bet you call Black people niggers, Asians chinks and Arabs towel heads. Go back to your BNP meetings and support a team like Millwall or Chelsea so you can be with your brethren
Oh I have just sent your email, prepare to be bombarded
Well said gunner 8, whilst we all like a joke at the scums expense, clock end has gone to far with his sick and tasteless posting.
That was a bit out of order clock end…I mean we take the piss calling spurs fans ‘yidos’. Obviously not all tottenham fans are jewish and many Arsenal fans are jewish. Of course we hate all tottenham scum but it doesn’t mean we hate all jews. And what you said about the gassing and hitler was really uncalled for.
Thanks chef and elstree, glad I have some support on that
I just can’t believe it when I hear people talk like that, as it is not in jest
Can you not delete his post lasagnechef? clockend gooner makes me ashamed to be a gooner.
Ohh get a life, Gunner8!
I’ve heard hundreds of gooners, singing that song!
Do you honestly think i agree with it, or belive it?
It was just a song!
Sad cunt! all you have to do is say you don’t agree with it!
You kinda “fans” are the one’s fucking up all the atmosphere at football grounds by running to the stewards and saying “sir, sir.. he’s swearing! waaaah…”
Ashamed to be a gooner, gunner67?
WELL FUCK OFF N’ SUPPORT CHELSEA THEN!!!
Ashamed to support our boys, because someone sang an offensive song? Wow! nice 2 know your support is that strong!!!
Clock End Gooner, I already thought you were ignorant, now you have proven it… …you are a waste of space! Enjoy your life as I am sure in your ignorance you will
You don’t know who I am or what I do, but don’t make assuptions or accusations to divert your bad taste, as I said before Chavski or Millwall would appreciate a cunt like you
YOU DON’T MAKE ANY ASSUPTIONS OR ACCUSASTIONS?
Didn’t you say I go to BNP meetings and call black people niggers, what not? How could I be racist, when 99% of our team is foreign?
I don’t need any little fucking mug telling me to go support the Chav’s or Millwall, just coz you got offended by a song I sang, as a joke!
Try putting the same effort into our club and supporting them, as you do by geeking it on the net and threatening people with spam, you sad little cunt!
10 years season ticket holder! 5 Arsenal tattoo’s! traveled over the world with the club… Come back to me when you’ve come close to that, little boy & we’ll talk then!
Top site LasagneChef!
Sorry if I offended anyone with that song! It was meant as a joke and i assure you, I didn’t make it up! heard it, years ago on the Clock.
Peace out!
enjoying the spam then
35 years and I don’t need to paint myself… …only kids do that!
all over the world isn’t Europe… …as far as I know Arsenal have only played in Europe
so Fuck off
HA HA! 35 YEARS OLD, AND YOU THREATENING PEOPLE WITH SPAM…? HA HA HA HA… YOU SAD OLD CUNT!
Still a virgin? Is your name Neville? Still live at home, with mummy?
oooooh, what a come back! Sorry then, Nev! All over “EUROPE” then! ha ha
Notice how you didn’t reply to the season ticket bit? Can you only get to a few games a season, hey Nev? aaaawww…
Don’t worry mate! We need all the armchair fans we can get, along with the real fans too!
Anyway, i’ve apologised for offending anyone here! i’ve taken the moral, high-ground by admitting my mistake! Shame old Nev ‘ere can’t do the same, and still wants to be a big man & bombard me with spam! oooohhh…! No wonder some Arsenal fans get called sad cunts! ‘ere’s one, right ‘ere!
Guuner8, you need to chill out a bit!! anyone can see that Clock End Gooner was repeating a song, in jest, that ive personally heard NUMEROUS times being sung at footy! inside and outside of the ground!
If you choose to take it offensively, Gunner8, thats up to you, but for a 35 yr old to “threaten spam” and to tell a fellow gooner to fuck off to chelsea…??!! whos the true ignorant one??!!!!
Gunner8 id chill out and watch the blood pressure if i was you!!! footys surely stressful enough, as it is, without fans turning on each, over basically nothing!!
Calm down ppl!
I think it’s time for a new post…
Don’t mean to give you grief, on your blogsite Chef dude…!
I have apologised, I will do so, again, if need be!
We were singing (well, typing, actually) spurs song’s at each other, and i thought i was appropriate to add that one… maybe i should have shown a bit more respect…
Just a shame that 35 year old man, have to stoop that low…
Anyway’s, hurry up Saturday! Want the proper fucking football back!
Piss up in the Tollington Arms, at about midday, if anyone is game!
UP THE ARSE…!
Is it possible to delete, edit the post with the song? I believe it is so distasteful that it shouldn’t even be seen… there is no way I could ever condone a gooner singing something like that.
that was season ticket you nonce and 35 years is how long we have had them in my family… …obviously you and gooner 69 are the same person
So how long you had your season ticket then, Nev?
Actually, no! That weren’t me, who posted that!
Think I’m that sad to do 2 posts, with different names?
That’s nearly as sad as threatening someone with spam… oooops! sorry!
gunner8, sorry to disappoint you but as clock end gooner states, hes ‘clock end’ and im actually ‘north bank’…!
Im really quite shocked that you find your language, name calling, accusing people of being ‘racist’ and ‘nonces’ and ‘threatening behaviour’ acceptable!!!
This is a site where gooners are supposed to be on the same side, not threatening and abusing people, over one posting they made!!
This isnt yours, lordpersies or anyones site!!! i believe its for ANYBODY to post their own OPINIONS!!! just a shame that you seem to think that yours are the only one that counts!!! done much work with wenger and the boys, have you? didnt think so mate!
To be honest, if i was you, id be ashamed of myself right now!! get off your soap box, stop the whining and back to the subject of FOOTBALL!!
no but I have with one of his former assistants Phillipe Troussier…
Clock End Gooner is a racist. He is usually the one starting songs about jews. He thinks he is Arsenal through and through but that is bullshit. He barely goes to away games and as for following Arsenal all over the world that is bullshit too.
Err… Anyone see the football last night?
Abso-fucking-lutely!! (last night as in 31st January 2007)
About time we got to the final of this competition under Wenger - he’s shown extreme faith in youngsters througout his time at Arsenal, and this crop of youngsters have succeeded where his previous classes had failed beforel. After winning at The Hawthorns, Goodison Park, Anfield and the comeback at The Shithole, each and everyone of ‘em deserve their place in that team for the final. Afterall…
The Kids,
The Kids,
The Kids Beat The Yids!!
COME ON ARSENAL!!
what are the words to the song
“were the riders of the clock end highbury”
Don’t know, not too familiar with that one - but here’s an anti-song about Robbie Keane, or any other YID striker for that matter (the lazy bastards):
(to the tune of Nelly Furtado’s “Maneater”
He’s a goal-hanger,
Doesn’t work hard,
Doesn’t sweat hard,
Misses from a yard,
Tottenham scum!!
