    I would imagine the Glazers have got the right monk on at the moment. :)

    I think that statement was done through gritted teeth.

    I think it's smart to say as little as possible on this one. Anything else and you're getting yourself tongue tied when all you really want to say immediately is 'We're out'.

    That's just the Twitter thing, the actual statement is 52 words, might even be 53 as one of the words is hyphenated and I'm not really sure how that works when word counting.

    Think they drafted Bossman in to sort out the wording of the press statement.

    Still only Arsenal apologised, as far as I have seen. Bit poor really.

    Got to agree. There is nothing they can say that makes this any better.

    Apologies, just checked the news and it appears that Tottenham and Liverpool have now made apologies themselves.

    I don`t think so, I live in Michigan, been to see the Lions football and Tigers baseball. The fan experience is second to none.
