@MHPengwingz @Astrealix And if not, may the finger of blame finally point immovably at EideFAIL

@Astrealix @kleautviool I see Wrighty has a bust, a nice compromise, perhaps?
Personally, although I have VERY fond memories of Walcott's Arsenal days, I don't think he makes the cut for the sort of truly iconic status required to be made into a literal icon

@z2k_ @kilcal lots of bottom dwelling northerners forget the Shaky Isles are not less than 2 hours ahead of the Prisoner Island

@Astrealix I wouldn't hold your breath, seems like the PL will do anything but

@Astrealix I don't want to end up like 80% of #Arsenal Twitter, who are apparently all the greatest experts in football the world has ever known, and love reminding everyone of it. 😀

My other issue with Balogun though does relate to whether he's willing to stay and fight - strength in depth is great for both injury cover & competitive drive within the squad, I find Flo an unknown quantity in terms of how well he fits into the team mindset Arteta's building. If he does, great, no Auba 2, plz

@Astrealix I'm not in the UK either, and the image was likely malicious specualtion, but the person in question must be in admin/coaching/ ownership etc to be old enough to have committed similar crimes 30 years ago

@gamblingblues @arsenalfc.social @gunners yeah, the 1990s thing rules out any active player. Twitter did have a photo of someone connected with Rice's former team leaving a police station recently. That person would be old enough to fit

@Astrealix @merc The extra "i" actually encourages saying the name properly though, it could be spelled Nwañeri for the same effect

@MutualityWSDEs @I_am_the_grass @bruv99 My understanding is that it's

but since recent events suggest none of them actually are, I'm going with

@Figaro2x A bit too kind, possibly. The way the judicial system dehumanises and minimises sexual violence against women, coupled with the deep institutional misogyny of the Met means that when three different women take all that on to make the same accusations against someone, it's a near certainty they're telling the truth. And any man who does that to women deserves to be called MUCH worse than "trash"

@raumdeuter @poorlydrawnarsenal that's fine. I don't want to creat an account there for the same reason I didn't join @arsenalfc.social on mastodon - so much of my posting has nothing to do with the greatest football club in the history of History, so would be irrelevant😀

@poorlydrawnarsenal that's great, thanks. That means I don't have to create a new social media account, yay
