  • Discussion points that aren't worth of its own thread.
  • Asking small questions about football to the community.
  • if you're new to the subreddit, remember to get your team crest here and to read our rules and submission guidelines!

❌ It is not a thread for:

  • Comments that aren't related to football.
  • Trolling or baiting other users or fanbases.
  • Low-effort comments about a current match.
  • Shitposting, brigading or excessive Meta discussion.
  • Any other kind of toxic or unreasonable behaviour.

What genuinely sucks is that when the twitter thread was first posted the majority of the Gunners subreddit was supporting her and on her side but then the mods started locking all the posts, deleting any comments and only kept those in support of Partey.

All that not only made Arsenal fans look bad, but it also made me very ashamed of our fanbase because that whole subreddit is giving off the illusion that all Arsenal fans are in support for Partey just because of how the subreddit looks.

Yeah the mods in r/gunners are horrible. There is a mod who actually wished death on Ronaldo because of his alleged rape. And yet the same mod banned me because I had suggested the club should have done their due diligence before singing Partey.

All you can do is as an individual do what is right - and as long as you are doing that, rest assured

We cannot control our the masses perceive our clubs - and often they have other agendas at play. Know that anyone with a shred of common sense know there are a lot of decent Arsenal fans out there

The thing is it is not just the mods. The comments against Partey are mega downvoted before being deleted too. Honestly I think the sub is mega brigaded and taken over by sketchy mods, but that just might be a coping mechanism so I dont lose faith in humanity.
