Paul Merson - Spurs 1 Arsenal 3 - an apology

Clock end
By Boris Mellor
September 15 2007
Some people might have got the wrong impression from a Paul Merson interview, at the beginning of the season, on Sky. They might have thought that Paul expressed fears for Arsenal over the loss of skipper Thierry Henry, and the alleged “current unrest” at the club over the David Dein saga.


They also might have thought that Merson went on to say that he feared Spurs could finish above Arsenal next season (it could be decided on the flip of a coin), which would be a 'disaster' for the Gunners to miss out on Champions League football whilst still retaining the debts of building the Emirates stadium.

Arsenals Gilberto Silva and Tottenham Hotspurs Andy Reid battle for the ball

However, Paul would like to put the record straight, what Paul actually intended to say was Arsenal “will obviously make the top four”, that they play the best football in the Premiership.

That is why Paul predicted before today’s match, on Sky Sports News, that Spurs had no chance and were not in the same class as Arsenal. Paul was teased for being so definite, but the match proved Paul absolutely right.Paul you are muddle head, but we still love you.

However, there was some relief for Martin Jol tonight, apparently his Chairman has said he is “right behind him”. Bit of advice  Martin, keep out of dark alleys.

Arsenal Times would also like to apologise for comparing Spurs with Clowns (See link to Jol's big chance below) . It was not intended to insult clowns in any way, and this site recognise the valuable job that clowns carry out in cheering up the young, sick and needy. Something that couldn't possibly be applied to Spurs. So would you please remove the picket, outside our offices, and the cars with exploding doors. Thanks lads, and lasses.

However Arsenal Times is still awaiting an apology from Spurs fans who said that the Gunners were a one man team, and now that man had gone they were a  spent force. 

Also .. (That's enough apologies. The Editor)

Clowns belong in the circus.
And there is no need to apologise if there is a Circus over there.
Same as Soho Square, another circus employing a certain MacCLown?....or that famous "M" with yellow background?
I am so confused....grinning smiley

Clowns are funny. They act stupid, but most of them are quite smart. Thats more than you can say for stupid Spuds fans.

Why Spuds fans are stupid? If you put @#$%& and gold in front of you, why would you be stupid enough to pick up @#$%&? It makes no sense. But I guess Spuds fans don't have enough brains to have sense. C'mon, they are Spurs fans!??? Whats wrong with these people???? There is no other explanation for them choosing to be Spurs fans except that they were born stupid.

Keep going SMITH you might be the jinx needed to get him on the score sheet. That should guarantee him a goal against Derby.
