By The Brickfields Gunners .
If a man does not keep pace with his companions, it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears , however measured or far away . ‘ – Henry David Thoreau.
As this season rushes to its inevitable, but unpredictable, end, I am gladdened by the very commendable support shown by true Arsenal fans worldwide, but most notably by the AKBs who have come to call Untold Arsenal their second home.
Despite all the shenanigans, vitriol, setbacks and disappointments of this season, to those of you who have chosen to remain faithful and understanding in the face of such malfeasance and malpractices – I thank you, guys. You really rock ! Such faith and fraternity will always be appreciated. And in due time, I believe, be rewarded.
‘The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.’
This is of course because most of us AKBs have the added advantage of education, experience as well as great moral and work ethics. I do believe that most of us have achieved a lot in life and it being mostly by our own noble efforts. Most of us have attained a very heightened and well honed sense of Karmic, Cosmic and enlightened Zen-like state of Vogvdlxsuibcjmjuz . The Force is truly strong in us. We have always fought the good fight , and long may it continue.
‘ What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.’
Vogvdlxsuibcjmjuz (adjective)… when you’re truly at peace and in touch with yourself, and nothing anyone says or does bother you, and no negativity or drama can touch you.
This is of course due to us following the fine ideas, ideals and examples of Lord Wenger , over the last 20 years. We truly BELIEVE .
It goes without saying that we believe that the EPL and all that revolves around it, is fixed, and that the officials are crooked and that the entire show is being manipulated. I for one am least bothered by the biased opinions media, pundits and the rest of ‘them’ . You do not count.
‘It is better to have your head in the clouds, and know where you are… than to breathe the clearer atmosphere below them, and think that you are in paradise.’
Can I prove any of it? Never conclusively nor completely, but this site has shown by its extensive research that all is not right in officialdom. Even if the more gentler ones amongst us is to argue that it is more due incompetence and insolence, rather than criminality, collusion or iniquity, pray tell how did it get this bad? We AKBs will forever fight this injustice , as best as we can. One day we WILL be vindicated.

Here are the salient points-
1.) You realize you are worthy:
2.) You focus on what you can control and let go of what you cannot:
3.) You use fear itself to live fearlessly:
4.) You do not seek validation, but pursue self-love instead:
5.) You practice radical forgiveness:
6.) You aren’t afraid of rattling a few cages:
7.) You’re a badass Buddha as opposed to merely a bystander Buddha.
Once again , thank you for all your support , faith and the many endeavours that you have undertaken to fight this good fight. Long may the AKBs reign! Up the Gunners!
WOO HOO, HOO !
BG well written article, you never disappoint with the humour.
Well put Brickfields!
After having written this at work and having sent it to you , Tony , I went home , with the thought that it will be up tomorrow.
When I happened to glance at it with my not so smart phone , I thought that either it had been partially translated into Cyrillic or some other Slavic language ; or that my phone had auto corrected it . You know , very much like how wives do it?
But none the less it does sound rather kickass !
In future I will use astrixes when referring to ‘them’ ! And when swearing !
**** **** !
I guess what Tony did is Rot1. There is a fairly well known “code” called Rot13, which is of a similar idea. a->n, b->o, …, n->A, …, N->a.
Congratulations to Carl Jenkinson for putting 5 balls into the open roof hatch of a Citroen C1 driven by a stunt driver (driving on 2 wheels only).
Koscielny, Mustafi you’ll have to do better next time. 🙂
After a careful thinking, my Arsenal starting 3 centrebacks for Man City FA Cup semifinal match at Wembley are: Paulista Mustafi Holding.
Koscielny and Monreal were found culpable in allowing M’boro’s equaliser at the Riverside. Therefore, I am starting them both from the bench. But will Mustafi be calm and not be rash to give away a penalty? And Paulista must be prepared to deal with Leroy Sane pace. In this wise, Bellerin who I’ve started a mid right winger must be tracking back to give Paulista defensive cover helping hand. So too must Chamberlain who I’ve started at mid left wing must give the young Holding defensive cover by tracking back to defend. Of course, Ramsey or Coquelin and Xhaka must give adequate defensive protection to Mustafi.
My starting mid-4 are:
Bellerin Ramsey Xhaka Chamberlain.
My God! What a pacey width. But I need steel in the middle. Should I then start Coquelin there and drop Ramsey to start from the bench? But Coquelin passing accuracy? Hmmm.
My starting front 3 are:
Walcott Sanchez Ozil.
Will Walcott make his pace to count in this match by not profligating in front of goal but hit the target at least thwice or gives the assits to hit it? Hmmm.
Which goalkeeper should I start among Cech, Ospina and Macey? Hmmm. Because of a standing agreement, maybe Le Prof will start Ospina.
They say it’s never too late to change!

Anyway, looks like Spuds are really going to challenge Chel$, imagine spuds pipping them to the title eh? That would be bad, Leic, Spuds…
Is this the year where Untold is praying for St Totteringham to stand up..
@ Gord – Could you get an App like this and add it on to this site ? AKBs worldwide would truly be in your debt . Anyone clicking here would immediately be rendered smarter.
‘ Maybe if we tell people the brain is an app they will start using it .’

Samuel Akinsola Adebosin – I am amused by your fantasy world of managing Arsenal with your team & comments about Le Prof. Why have you lost so many matches & not apologised? (only kidding but in your world Arsenal never lose). More importantly why do you never admit lack of tactics?
OK so your team is always perfect but Le Prof destroys your beautiful selection & tactics. Terrible man Le Prof!

I don’t imagine it would be too hard to make an ‘app’ that does rot13. However, I lack the time to do so. It is possible that it already exists. But, if one has to be written, and some Untolder wants to do so, I could look into putting it on the github project we have going.
@ Gord – 20/04/2017 at 1:00 pm – Go for it ! And have an alarm alert installed with it as to warn against for trolls and **** .
Also a built in laughter audio , as many of ****’s comments are quite funny or so outrageous . Intended or not !
