Please point out if that's been stated or inferred and I'm happy to correct myself. My comment was more how sad it is that it’s made it’s way here in a way that it’s supposed to make the club look bad I guess. I’m not saying it’s a common everyday occurrence but I’m 100% sure that people still have sex at work. So why is that post made in a ‘shock horror’ type way is what I’m guessing at.

villa4europe Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I would absolutely amazed if it was true too Its blatantly made up in an attempt to demean the club as banter because having gay players would be a reason to laugh at them Don't get me wrong it would be shocking and would definitely be worth some posts in discussion but that tweet is laced with homophobia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I posted the screenshot here as a couple of Arsenal supporting friends sent it to me. It wasn't posted in any way to make Arsenal look "bad". In what has an unusual start to the season for them, this would add to that unusual nature. Many people have sex at work, I have on occasion, but that is maybe for the off topic @irreverentad therapy group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the act isnt a problem its because regardless of whether it happens in other places its unprofessional conduct at an already unprofessional looking club in the middle of a crisis.

No one shags at work? Or is it because it appears to be by two men? Even if it was male and female it would be a scandal if was at the training ground and not at home or a hotel A number of female players are in a relationship with team mates. Its not a problem but stuff happening on club premises is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Until there's some evidence of this from something other than a rando Twitter account, it's not really worth talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I imagine if true (I assume it’s not) then it’s possibly the first inter-club same sex relationship in men’s football worldwide. It would be world news. Doesn’t mean it’s wrong, but there would be a lot of interest in the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasnt he club captain at one stage I assume they're signing a right back today? They're surely not going to rotate the position between Chambers and Cedric all season? EDIT: To answer my own question, they seem to have signed a Japanese guy from Bologna who can play there. Hope he's good, because they have jack shit else in that position.

VillaChris Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Whos' been the best ever Japanese defender to play in europe? That Nagatomo guy at Inter a few years back? Sakai who was at Marseille for a few years? Yoshida was o.k at Southampton I guess. Guess I'm just lazy given his nationality but guessing he's about 5ft 7 so likes of Burnley will just move Wood into his area when they're hitting in long crosses to pin him in the box.

Genie Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Arsenal look like they are in big trouble. Weak squad, over paying on players, unhappy players speaking publicly, poor form, bottom of the league, rookie manager. What a mess. They’ll probably sack Arteta after the next next loss and leave the new manager several months away from a transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realise Arsenal football club has some much affection amongst our fanbase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
