At Last Breaking News From Emirates


No Vu Vu For You

By Boris Mellor
July 20 2010

With rumours running rife that Eduardo is leaving, and that also it is possible that Almunia might also go I decided to check out Sky Sports News. It's not something I do that often. But with Wenger having mislaid four centre backs in one season; and at his own admission there is no number one available I thought I had better check it out.

Sure enough Breaking News From the Emirates. I squinted to read the rolling strap, who had been bought or sold? Somebody called Vu Vu, perhaps they had misspelt Du Du, on looking closer I observed that it wasn't a transfer but a ban on vuvuzelas.

For once Pravda, or Arsenal.con as it is laughingly known, was first with the news:

"Further to their hugely debated involvement at this summer's World Cup Finals in South Africa, Arsenal Football Club has decided to forbid the use of vuvuzelas within Emirates Stadium with immediate effect.
 
This decision has been taken to ensure the enjoyment and safety of supporters on Matchdays, which is of paramount importance to the Club."

Not a lot of debate here, but Wenger is keen that the songs are not drowned out. Mind you the only song we hear these days is, "there is only one Arsene Wenger", and that gets fainter by the game. If he doesn't buy that number one soon it might not be heard at all.

If that should be the case maybe the club would reconsider its decision.

I think banning vuvuzelas is probably just common sense, although I can fully understand that they were allowed at the World Cup for local cultural reasons.
Secondly about the planned protests, I am staunchly against any such. All hail the dark lord Wenger e.t.c. winking smiley

perhaps the rumbling noise from the vu vu would have struck fear in to the heart of the traitor cesc-barca

Can We Now Trust The Process 🤔🤷🏿‍♀️ or Should We Still Remain Cautious 🙇🏿‍♀️

precisely. a goalie is more important than banning the vu vu's

The vuvuzelas are a Sth African instrument, aint they?. Why would anyone want to play/blow them at the Emirates? At present are bag-pipes banned at Emirates?

Since the end of WW1, 1919, when the FA restarted its 4 tier football league, with Arsenal fc in the 1st div, there’s only ever been one club to have never been relegated from Div 1/ EPL.

Arsenal fc

Let’s keep making history

They are selling them in the UK now weedz, if they werent banned I reckon the small minority of people actually blowing them would get a good kicking in the stands anyway if they p*ssed people off.

There was a kid shot dead in South Africa for blowing one of those things. He entered some dudes garden and started blowing it and this guy came out of his house and put two in the poor sod.
