Crap Player Schedule 1997-98

It has been noted recently that some Arsenal fans have been criticising certain members of the Arsenal squad. This practice takes place in the ground, in pubs and homes across London, and on the Internet.

ArseWeb does not have a problem with this, as such.

However, this season there seems to be a growing number of fans who are criticising the wrong players, at the wrong times. Even we at ArseWeb have been guilty of this on occasion.

There is of course a carefully worked out timetable of crapness, which determied the crap player for each month, together with the reason(s) for their crapness.

It is vital that all fans get together on this one, and restrict their harping on about players' weaknesses to the appropriate squad member (regardless of injury, regardless of whether they're in the first team at the moment, and regardless of whether they have been sold). Only by being thoroughly disciplined about this can we bring the full weight of our collective moaning to bear.

For those who have forgotten the schedule, or lost their copy, we reproduce below the official Arsenal Crap Player Schedule for the current season 97-98.

Month Player Why they're crap
July Seaman secret weakness, lack of confidence, only bothers for England
August Adams alcoholic, injury prone, can't drive
September Anelka not good enough, raw, no experience, arrogant, moody
October Grimandi at fault for the goal, inexperienced in England
November Wright Over the hill, liability, never win the league with him in the side, 5 games without a goal
December Bergkamp inconsistent, moans, anonymous, petulant, indisciplined
January Parlour crap, headless chicken, simply not good enough
February Dixon no good going forward, too old
March Winterburn one footed, too old
April Platt greedy, moneybags, self-centred, crap
May Hughes spoilt-brat, greedy, over-rated, arrogant
June Overmars waste of money, never got over his injury
The crap player schedule was devised by Mark Nicholls.

We hope to bring you the schedule for season 98-99 as soon as possible, so that everyone can get some really efficient and organised whinging in over the summer.
