    From time to time Arsene has disappointed me and as I have said previously he is a very very poor loser, as have some players with their poor behaviour on and off the pitch - I was however asked what my expectations were

    And my expectations of proper conduct have been largely met

    You are aving a bubble Nic. 80+ red cards since Wenger became manager I believe. Proper conduct my a*se (Excuse the Pun.) 50 of those came in Wenger's first six seasons.

    And it was an unsatisfactory pattern of red cards Baz - not up to my expectation of good behaviour - and appears to have been more effectively addressed over the ast few seasons

    If you look at the number of red cards Citeh picked up this season Dave, and arguably they should have picked up at least one more - then you might very well take the view that to win trophies you have to engage the black arts

    The fact is though that not only did they put the boot in but played the best football over the season, same as we did in our best years under Wenger

    If you look at successful teams they all have one. I believe the correct technical term is a " right b*stard" who does the sneaky cynical rough stuff - Van Bommel, Busquets, De Jong Scholes - you have to do the crime then adopt the "Who ref ? ME ?????!!!" expression when pulled up.

    It has been an unfilled vacancy at the Emirates for a while

    You must be very disapointed then Nic? How many red cards? How many scuffles? How often does the myopic one fail to see the obvious disgraceful behaviour by an arsenil player? Such a shame eh . . . . . .

    When I say I am " disappointed" do you reckon that sort of deals with it Vis ?
    There are things at AFC I do not like - behaviour of players and staff on and off the pitch and it has been ever thus

    That is the advantage of not being an a*se licking yes fan with a lack of critical faculty - do you see ?

    Is there anything at Spuds you reckon is wrong Vis ?

    And that is why the diving antics of Bale must grate Vis - to be fair since he was exposed back in February he has cleaned his act up - hopefully his effort will be permanent

    Now now Nic don't let bitterness cloud your vision. We at Spurs are proud of our heritage and I do believe when you brought up young Bale and his antics before you were pointed in the right direction? We have players who don't get sent off that often and as many managers as we may have had they have always been fair and insightfull in their after match interviews. Unlike some I could mention from other clubs! It is fair to say that Spurs play the game in the true spirit of how it should be played and strive to uphold those traditions . . . . . . . . .

    I think it is more likely that Bale was " pointed in the right direction" Vis since his claim to be proud of getting opponents sent off with his diving back in February

    As far as I know he has not picked up another booking for diving which, as I say, has to be a positive - and his week in week out tumbling in the box did not earn any more spot kicks I think - good for him

    I wonder though whether in the last three months of the season and trying to play the game fairly he was not as effective

    As does a player announcing how proud he is of having opponents sent off

    Still he may have cleaned up his act


    Alternatively he may be plying his trade elsewhere so it may longer be a live issue for Spuds fans

    Says the man who knows nothing about what bale has to put up with reckless tackles to stop him, and nic that is the only way they can stop him by reckless challenges.
    Take a look at the injuries bale has had from the fcking animals who cant match his skill, and then say he isnt entitled to dive !
    Talk to those that play against him nic, they cant beat him so they hack him down, thats a chance they take and bale will exploit it, and i dont blame him.
    End of really nic !

    Yeah Lew - Bale says he dives to avoid injury ? What a larf

    So when has Bale suffered a serious injury then ?

    If Bale wants to know about a serious injury he should talk to his Welsh teammate Aaron Ramsey and find out a little bit about being seriously injured involves instead of cheating.

    And oddly enough Lew I have never seen Ramsey either before his broken leg, or after it, dive or try to get an opponent sent off - have you ?

    If he adopted Bale's approach Ramsey would be chucking himself all over the pitch at every opportunity, same as any other player who HAS been seriously injured.

    Maybe ask Diaby - or ask Eduardo - how about Dave Mackay - what do you reckon Dave would advise Lew ? shock
