I noticed the other day Nottingham Forest were on the verge of returning to the Premiership.

We all know the Arsenal history of a never ending run in the top flight but what tragedies does a series of unforeseen unfortunate events and how do you cope with that? It could literally happen to anybody and that is the crux especially as Arsenal has been second fiddle to economic change throughout its history when you disregard the jaunt earlier in this century and the 1930s.

Arsenal only do well because they see what other successful clubs do and follow suit in order to be in the running.

Is this a bad thing? Well I don't think there is any real innovation considering every point of success has hardly been down to entrepreneurial spirit but an influx of lots of money and well - money buys success for everyone.

One false move with this changing climate and Arsenal would be there among the dead waiting for a return to glory days of which there an infinite number in support trying to overshadow the dark.

This is why we come back for more. Maybe we all love the fight or maybe, secretly were all trying to hide the fact that we all share one thing if anything, we have to fight to survive as much as we need to come together.

I know all that sounds "gay" in the completely non-homo-erotic sense but cut me some slack; we all like to be introspective now and again.
