But i guess its hard to see when ur team spends a lot and constantly changes managers just to finish 3rd.
It's harder to count the 11 trophies we've won with changing managers and overspending.

If you look at Chelsea's manager timeline over the past ten years, you would never guess they would have the amount of trophies they have

I'll guess...more than Arsenal

that's cute Man city and Chelsea teaming up in an arsenal season thread. New money always feels insecure about old money even if they have more success.
Maybe they believe Grand Maester Pycelle that blood always tells in the end. Or for a more cultured literary reference, much like Jay Gatsby could never quite feel superior to Tom Buchanan no matter how successful he was

Well to be fair, Wigan and Swansea have more in last 10 years as well.

At least put the accurate number of years.

Sorry. This LINK should help.

Why is trolling Arsenal fans more important to you than spending extra time with your kid? Doesn't make much sense. Not countertrolling, but just a legitimate question. If I had a young child I would consider their existence to be a much better use of my time than trolling strangers on a message board.

bho's trolling wears thin on me too, but this? a little over the top.

no one respects Chelsea or City so it's all good. plus their fans were figuratively purchased just as much as the players, so any shite talking always reads sheepish and slightly embarrassing.

Well cwill, since you are so interested in my time with my son, I'll help you out a little. My son goes to my parents house on MWF all day while my wife and I go to work. So anything I post before 3:30 central time was done while on a break at work. My wife goes to pick our son up from my parents and usually arrives home on these days around 5. I play with him until dinner time and then a little before he goes to bed at 7. Remember I'm on Eastern time. So anything after that time is done while he's gone down for the night. On Tuesday and Thursday, he goes to preschool in the mornings and then my mom or dad will pick him up. Again, anything during the day is done while at work. On the weekends, I spend a lot of time with him but he takes naps and sometimes plays by himself. Oh and before you give me shite about tonight, he is with my wife and mother at the mall and I went to a HS baseball game. I'm glad you are concerned though. Have to go, he just got home.
ETA:Oh and if you want to know the love I have for my son, you can ask any of the numerous people on this board that know me.

It seems to be the go to for people who succumb to the trolling. I like to get a little jab in every now and then. It's meant to be light hearted. Going after someone's family is not what I do. I'm sure I'm not the only person on here with a family, but people seem to be worried about the relationship I have with mine.

Don't stop now. I'm thoroughly enjoying this thread.
Posted on 5/22/13 at 7:48 pm to Bho
I mean I agree Cwill went too far, but at the same time you're kind of asking for it with the act you put on. I really don't see the enjoyment, but then again I'm not a sadistic a-hole... just a normal one.
(That's more a jab back, Cwill threw a haymaker.. )

Oh, I'm not going to stop. You should know better than that. I just think going after someone's family is crossing the line. But I'm the one accused of lacking class.

Sorry to disappoint you guys. I like pushing the envelope to make a point- the trolling gets old after a while. If you have nothing productive to say, then why bother?
In a sense, I'm glad you guys were upset by why I said- it shows that we actually do have standards on this board. Honestly, I don't give a shite how Bho raises his kid, and I doubt he spends time away from his kid on TD. No good father would. But that said, here is why I was interested in the reaction:
You guys hold some members of this board to higher standards than others. We've come to accept that Bho will generally be a jackass so when he acts in this way rarely does he get called out for it. I don't troll the Chelsea thread or any thread really, as we are all entitled to support our teams without having the supposed failures of our teams rubbed in our face unnecessarily. If Chelsea had a really down year and failed to make the CL, would I go into their thread and have written all over the place while taunting and harassing the Chelsea fans? Hell no. While I think several Chelsea fans on this board suck arse (at least the vocal few, and we know which ones those are so they don't need to be mentioned), I have no need to rub salt in their wounds when their luck is down. It just shows a lack of respect and, in my opinion, a lack of class.
All that said, I still think 30 year old men should have better things to do with their time than troll strangers on the internet, but hey, maybe that's just me.
Bho, I'm sure you're a fine parent and will instill in your child a love of the beautiful game. Sorry if I offended, because literally none of what I said was serious, but I know you troll to push people's buttons so I wondered how far one could push back before people would admit that trolling is, in a great sense, a huge waste of space and time on a board that normally shows so much quality.

Nah, I don't really give a shite what you or anyone else on here think of me or my parenting. You made an arse out of yourself. You have a stick up your arse about anything Chelsea fans say. It's ok, it's what you're supposed to do as an Arsenal fan. At the end of the day you aren't mad at me because Arsenal can't win trophies. Be mad at the club. Why are you the only one that takes it seriously? If you should question anything, it should be that. Oh, and Trey is asleep, is it ok if I play FIFA and post?

Well so much for intelligent conversation. I can't believe I actually tried.
