The Untold Awards for pessimissm and outreach « Untold Arsenal: Arsenal News. Supporting the Lord Wenger; coach of the decade
By Tony Attwood
A little while ago when we were doing our Untold Awards it was suggested we might create a few more awards. So I then collected all the award suggestions that we had (you’ll find them listed on the Awards site), and thought maybe we might see if we could get some suggestions for recipients.
- Award 5 (given that we did four in the original run through)
The Award for the most pessimistic person writing about Arsenal.
The reader who nominated this award gave us no indications as to who should get it, so I leave it up to you.
The Award for the Player who has reached out and connected with the fans more than any other this season and which particular moment stands out
Now in this case we did have several nominations including
*** RvP when he picked up Theo at Wigan and carried him across to the fans to applaud for his assist,
***Chesney when he ran and picked up the ball boy and gave him a huge hug,
*** RvP at the beginning of the season when he single handedly stood his ground against almost the entire Bolton team,
*** Song when he deliberately stamped on Bartons leg. (“Silly, rash, unnecessary and probably cost us. But bless him, personally I would have stamped on Barton’s head.”)
So there we are kiddies – roll up roll up and give us your award for the most pessimistic person writing about Arsenal and the player who has reached out and connected with the fans.
