Probably a bit late in the day but heres my opinion for what its worth anyway.
I have just had a look at the posts after the game & am astonished and p****d off with the muppets on here constantly berating the fans for Arsenal's poor performances at home. The ones who sit at home watching the games on TV, The ones saying that Arsenal fans who go to the games are 'prawn-sandwich munching middle-class tw*ts', the ones who say that they can't go because they have effectively been 'priced out' of the match, the ones who say that its better to be crap but so long as we have a decent crowd. The ones whose probably only Arsenal contribution is to buy a replica shirt every year...........
I have never heard so much sh*t in my life.
I attend all the home games & the crowd is lifted by two things -hard work & a winning mentality. If the players don't show one or either how on earth can you expect the fans to recipricate..? When the players constantly play tap-tap left to right footballl how on earth can you expect the fans to be excited..?
When the title is in OUR hands how on earth can you expect the fans to be happy when its thrown away..? Not just against Blackburn but against Sunderland, West Brom, Newcastle etc, These are teams we should be beating with our so-called world class players..
The difference between us & Man Utd..? They were 2-0 down to West Ham at half-time & we all know the outcome of that one. Passion, committment & a huge desire to win did the job for them. Things that are sadly lacking in our team.
So before you have a go at the fans, just remember most fans are hard-working people who forego MANY things for our season tickets.I spend a lot of money on Arsenal not just on the tickets but on the whole matchday experience including travel, food etc. I have to organsise my work & childcare for both my daughters.
How dare people say that when I turn up to a game that I'm not passionate or loud. At least I make the effort to go.
And don't moan about not being able to afford a ticket. IF you really wanted to go then its always possible. A little bit of effort and sacrifice.
So go & f**k yourself for blaming the fans. its the PLAYERS you want to blame.
