Yesterday..
I felt like shit after watching the game. Like what the fucking hell was that? Absolute disgrace to a club of this stature and one that created every piece of negative history that it possibly could. What the shit! Where is my club heading towards? Whats going on?
And I felt like crap. I tried to mug Econs but ofcourse, when your mind is not in it, you jus can't. Discussed the match with a few people and went to bed with a heavy heart.
This jus could NOT be happening. The past 6 months has jus been nighmarish and absolutely painful to be an Arsenal supporter.
Today...
I think I accept the result. Yes, we got our asses kicked. Absolutely embarrassing and completely unnecessary. And no excuse is acceptable. But you know what? We have hit rock bottom. And at this point the only direction to go is upwards. Yes, I am being optimistic..but yet, I have experienced rock bottom myself and I know how it feels. It can't be any worse beyond this. So come on Arsenal! REDEMPTION STARTS FROM THE NEXT GAME. No, I am not talking about trophies or whatsoever. Let's start with winning the next game first. If we start winning games and maintain a decent level of consistency, trophies will come. First, master the basics.
And the Arsenal fans at the game were fantastic..so much so that Arsenal has come forward to give them a free away ticket for a Premier League fixture. Yes, they were amazing. Its bad enough to witness it on telly. Its even worse to witness it LIVE..,in front of thousands of Mancs fan singing GGMU. But yet, they cheered their team on. And they stayed for 20 minutes past the final whistle to cheer their club on. Now, thats the Arsenal spirit. I think I could learn a thing or two from them. And I almost forgot what this club thought me..to NEVER EVER EVER GIVE UP and to always BELIEVE.
These are tough times. But let's stand together. And we can overcome this. We can. We ARE Arsenal. And nothing about any other team can beat us. Yes, we have hit a slump and things haven't looked good for us. But let's not give up..and look at the positives and improve from here.
Come on..we can do this! We have lost great players before and we continued with grace. And we will do so this time round as well.
OOH-TO-BE-A-GOONER.
Arsenal forever and always.
