I have used the word desperate more in the last couple of days than in my "dry" period of 2002-2005.
Woolwich (and Utd with Scholes) - they're like the desperate guy who can't get anyone new, younger or fitter so fall back on the ugly old whore they had a thing with a few years ago because it's the easy option even though the sex will ultimately disappointing and drive them into a deeper depression.
My word

when tottenham where in decline and in the doldrums 97-98 we harked back to a previous favourite klinsman. his goals were important but his prensence reinforced how badly we had fallen. henry is tottenham's klinsman a hero whose return actually embarasses the present regime. at the time i remember spurs fans being gratefull but extremely angry that it ever got to this in the first place.
Slight difference was that Klinsmann was still playing (or at least training) for Sampdoria (having Left Bayern in the summer of '97)
He wasn't taking a pay check in the States in a league, that whilst improving year on year, is probably Championship level football from what a few of the American guys on here have said.
He also wasn't retired like Scholes. He played in the '98 World Cup after that season as well!
And yes he served his purpose, but we were DESPERATE at that point in late 1997 as many of us will remember. It was a panicked measure that could have backfired, and up until the last 3 games it almost did. Then, Wimbledon. Mayhem!
Gone off on a tangent there - basically the Gooners are desperate and have fallen to mid-90's Spurs levels in their decision making. Yes, that'll do

One of the comments "I haven't lost my virginity yet but I imagine it's weak compared to the explosion in my pants I had when that goal went in!"

So Woolwich had a game today? I didn't have any idea until I came here, but as it turns out it was a fucking REPLAY against Leeds - a game in which they needed a washed up has been from the MLS to get them there.
Someone mentioned that the MLS is comparable to the the Championship. Well, as an American, I can tell you that's a very liberal comparison. The LA Galaxy, perhaps, are a midlevel Championship side, but I think that teams like Cardiff, Palace, Boro, Brum would all run riot against this lot.
The Gooners have no idea how pathetic they have become - regressing at a shocking rate. They even had to mention Spurs twice in that video. Did I mention it was a fucking REPLAY - at home - to LEEDS?!
