If youâ??re reading this then you have taken at least a few minutes to look around â??The Armchair Goonerâ?? and will perhaps return at some point in the future for more. For that alone, I thank you.
In the interest of keeping this a safe environment for the humble football fan â?? all are welcome â?? to discuss topics and share opinions, I devised a simple set of rules:
- You can swear all you want in the heat of debate, but abuse directed at other people, especially me, will not be tolerated.
- Fans from other clubs are more than welcome to pop by, but fans with a grudge against Arsenal whose sole purpose is to flame this site to kingdom-come with vitriolic remarks will not be barred at first â?? I will take great pleasure in changing the content of your comments to something more suitable.
- Consider this an atheists haven, so no extremists preaching please. The only god I believe in is Dennis Bergkamp.
- Please donâ??t offer me random links to sites about Cheese or whatever extraneous topic you may be peddling. Inquires from other football blogs are more than welcome.
- Please post in English. Unfortunately, Iâ??m not multi-lingual and will have to unapprove any such comments. I fucking hate text-talk and will only tolerate people using abbreviations such as â??Lolzâ?? or â??OMGâ?? in small measure. Mis-spelling is fine as, letâ??s be honest, I do enough of that myself.
Those are the basics. If you become a regular and follow them, weâ??ll get on just fine.









I’ve just read your blog for the first time, after following a link from my usual daily dose of Le Grove. As you might expect, I am a fan of Pedro who writes v.well – in my humble opinion.
You’ve won a new reader, me! I especially like your Rules, Raul.
Keep it going. Much respect. DOUG PEACOCK Tiptree, Essex.

Many thanks, Steve. I hope you do return.
I’m not usually one for Blogs, Twitter and all that other time consuming stuff, but, after my usual daily search for transfer headlines on our beloved team, I have discovered and laughed my way through your recent posts…am now a convert and regular reader!
So refreshing to read well written and grammatically correct pieces…especially after the painful comments made by some of our ‘colleagues’ on other sites!
Keep it up Raul!
Ted (like your perception of Sir Chips, a fellow anti-jerry type…they did after all bomb my dad’s favourite chip shop…).
Thanks Ted. Much appreciated.
