Alexander Hleb might not have been the greatest player Arsenal have ever had, but neither was he the worst to have pulled on the red and white jersey.

But one particular Gooner really wasn't a fan - so much so that following the supporter's death, a memorial stone was put up outside the Emirates taking a dig at the Belorussian midfielder.

Following the passing of Geof Cohen, his son had a memorial stone outside the Gunners' ground inscribed with the words: "Geof Cohen - never rated Hleb".

Geof's son Howard has appeared pleased with the response the plaque has received.

"My dad was a right laugh, and he would have been very amused by the fact the funny plaque I got in his memory," he wrote on Twitter.

How do you monitor all this stuff?

You seem to span all media and find everything that is either completely worthless or that particularly gets your (rage filled) goat.

You're better than this ChesterDave

Rage filled goat

Nature had the right idea. I love an angry goat

Social media, and manufactured rage, had the wrong idea.

I suspect it's my inner Dom, but I hate the way people manufacture emotion through the media they consume.

[dom9]

You're on the right track Sav. Authenticity is so rare these days.

How do you monitor all this stuff?

I had the TV on. Hardly cunning and searching high and low to be angered

Plus, pointless is good. Not as good a Two Tribes - some proper numpties on that.

Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe is apparently not merely after a personal assistant, but someone to take his ‘brand’ to the next level, while watering his plants and stocking up his fridge.

The ‘Executive Personal Assistant’ advertised for on job website ‘secsinthecity.co.uk’ promises a salary of between £50,000-£60,000 but asks an astonishing amount from a potential employee for Defoe Enterprise Ltd.


The advert states that the individual must be “very flexible, hands-on and be capable [of] multitasking” – but that’s just the start of it.

would he be worth having as a second half sub to firm up our midfield and still poach the odd goal. maybe another rickie lambert moment.
