hmmnn, seems u pple have time and energy to waste arguing with debosky and dudu. they are never wrong.

not long ago folks were pointing out that the players in arsenal first team were below par, of course trust who came to defend them. that was the period of the diaby is the best drimbbler debacle. that was when denilson was a 'solid' playerr being played out of position, the youth setup was world-class (true)etc etc.

the chavs and dayokanu will remember this period very well. fast forward a few months and just look at what debosky is posting above. now he knows some players are shyte? we coulda told u that a long time ago.


in a few more months, he will finally realise that wenger wont do it anymore, hopefully,


anyway, quit whining pls everybody. we always knew the problems, we have known them for a while. give urr minds peace.

arsenal is like a man diagnosed with HIV who lives in denial. with time, he will realise who was right and wrong.

why are u people being dramatic? what is new? what? can u honestly say you are surprised?

abeg, on to the next one jare. gunner 4 life. still i remain.

but this tactical thing sha, na wah o. team selection sef

german pdp ooo. how can a shyte turd of a team that has been routinely turned over this season suddenly up and wins a match away from home with this scandalous margin? i thot this types of miracles were in nigerian league! shouldnt uefa be investigating this? this st pauli have they ever lost like dis even in oower division? all of a sudden the bayern munshcit is suddenly winning by eight goals?

acually find it absurd that there are pple bar arsene who think that arsenal arent bottlers!!! what else is the point to everyone's complaints?

actually, outsiders give more excuses for arsenal's shortcomings than the so-called whining fans. afterall, just name any excuse given for arsenal from money to youth policy etc, it always emanates from some outsider who simply wants to attribute arsenal's bottling to something to rationalise it.

and as usual, suddenly this issue gets twisted into a one match/one season only thingy. like we have been blind all the while.


bottomline is whatever makes una sleep better jo. @ debosky and dudu, u are right ok. everybody else is blind and wrong.

personally, i think proudly9ja is right as to how to argue with u. lets give this a few months. funny thing is i absolutely used to think like u before and it was wierd for pple then who simply could see what i couldnt. as of this moment the worst club to bank on for any reason is arsenal. at the times when the chips are down and there is all to play for, can u stand up and say with conviction that we will do what is needed?(note i didnt even say win, even a draw when a draw is needed)


nothing reflects this better than when even rivals firmly believe arsenal the least threat and a club further down the table is more of a threat, and always gets proved right. BUT THEN, I AM WRONG ABI?

there is no battle. how can there be when Windows is on 98 percent of computers. also the better os is the os that works best for u and ur needs

@lynx, i found a project for meta search and indexing. dunno if its still active tho.
its called tracker. im not near my pc so i dont know if it still works or supported. will check it out l8r.

@lynx, u mean the dash brings up everything on ur pc? hmnn.

actually it does locate my docs too but only if i have worked on that doc recently. it seems it only regs them when iv opened them at least once. and id have to do over 7k docs.

and it absolutely does not index doc contents, i know cos i checked. hmnn do these things work for u?

maybe i try set up zeitgest, but integrating it is a pain without the proper plugins, and i aint no programmer.

again i have most of my stuff on anor dedicated drive, set to automount, maybe thats why?


they improved synaptic A LOT. broken packages and apt lock can be resolved in now properly. and some other stuff i cant remember right away.

the one thing that shld definitely happen this summer is to bring in viera and lehmann as coaches.

i dont think patrick will be on the bench and dunces like bendtner will be oafing around the pitch. but then wenger would actually have to give up some of the dictatorial powers.

a very tactically competent asst mgr is sorely needed. get pple with spines and gud mentality on the bench to do sone work and it will impact the squad.

and pls wat precisely is the point to that american whatisitcalled guy that came in last yr? i dont see how he has improved the club yet, someone enlighten me.


as for debosky, i distinctly remember having told u on many occassions to mind the language u use with me. kinda not inclined to roll in the gutter, but then im sure someone with ur intelligence can put a point of view across without emulating an uncouth nuisance. and gud thing is u dont even have to respond to my posts. too bad if u dnt like my views, turns out the facts support me (6yrs) and counting and all that bull,

so whose installed and been using NATTY!!?

i have and well, its been a new experience. totally.

the system itself works a dream, literally the fastest thing iv seen since puppylinux.

the desktop takes a learning curve.

err, what do i not like? i have been conditioned to having a menu where u click thru to search. using the dash is a bit clumsy, but i seem to be adapting now.

havent found any dreaded bug, YET

think they should have incorporated zeitgeist into the dash search and now that there is a serch bar, why not have it properly index my files like win 7. i have a ton of docs and often need to search for phrases in docs in order to locate them.


or is there anyone who knows how to do that easily? i use an app called catfish and it does ok, but it takes a few clicks to start it and its more search than indexing.




anyway, what are your views?

@ double n, u actually want to start a mac vs linux debate on a linux thread with long term linux diehard techies?

create a mac thread or go to a windows thread o. u can oppress dem there. here u just anor sucker running a closed version of bsd in a closed ecosystem, on fancy mostly underpowered hardware and paying through your nose for it.

at least u got blinged hardware and props for using Apple . lol

did i hear u say 100k?

last time i checked prices in nigeria those things were sold for over 250k.



hell no, i think i kinda like free, esp when the free works better for me than any of the paid stuff

the utd result only goes to show the extreme level of mental weakness in the team

when the pressure was off, there was practically nothing to play for, except maybe pride for those who actually gave a rats ass, the team ups and does what they have not been able to do a long time, beat utd, play better than utd, score a goal, hang on to that solitary goal!!!


u can bet if there was actually the league to play for the match would have gone the usual way.

yet some of us think the manager is not at fault for his weak minded squad, and still the dunce gives sound bites saying that he is gonna sick to this same mentally handicapped squad.

the devil must be a gunner in disguise

awaiting the next installment of face down arse up, and dont groan loud session on sunday
fergie please bring the lube, and stick to just one round, we know u can go five-- arsene wenger




did i read duduspace saying "arsene knows"

guy, for everyone's sake on NL, stop typing that phrase. im telling you, that is one thing that makes me combust spontaneously. keep whatever delusions u have about wenger to yourself abeg, stop insulting the collective sensibilities of the NL community by saying that bullcrap ok!

before no gree no gree go tear shirt for this thread ooo


una say pat rice wan retire, GOD BLESS HIM. u see that is a honourable failure, he knows he has done his best and its time to go.

the other mumu dey enjoy the 4 million per year for getting into 4th position, and forming stubborn. omo ale jati jati omo france

already rocking!!!

installed it on my HTPC at home only to discover that the hardware didnt support unity 3d, still wondering tho, the video card in it is 256mb, never had any issues with any os b4 on it, even windows.
am hoping that when i update the video drivers, it may start working, else i use 2d like dat joor

but is it only me, this thing is FAST!!!!!!! DAMN!!! im booting in 12 secs on that old pc and shutdown is like 3 secs max!!



anyway, on to the lapie, and am just setting up naw. will give reports as time goes on
NB could u believe i used my mtn modem to do the iso overnite and once the download finished the modem has stopped working!!!!! musta burned the modem at last, e don try na since 2009, enuff crazy mb plus downloads!!!!


anyway, feast ur eyes here

well folks hav told me they got suspended torrenting stuff like new movies and apps wit starcomms. seeing dt screenie of lynx downlg a movie was surprising.

personally iv ditched transmission 4 deluge a long time ago, used 2 hav issues seeding.

@ evil brain, hmmn i think i really should strongly recommend u stay away o

u really dont sound like u can take any aggravation, by the way NOTE that april releases are usually guinea pig releases, be warned

@ lynx, gnome3 is there o, its default in the next fedora and opensuse releases.
its actually even more confusing than unity to use

good luck to them o, it breaks unity for now, so im staying away till next release when ubuntu will have fully migrated to gnome 3 as a base, they still using gnome 2.x for now.

if u want to use it, u use it strictly and remove unity. at your own risk ooo

thing is either environments are immature, by october we will have a better idea of whats up
my download is at 54 percent now.



@ lynx so transmission works for u? how do u mask ip for starcomms wahala?

hehehehehehehe

so all these criminals still dey NL!!

@ DC, oko omoge 1 of NL, puskin, u nor gree pick my etisalat no ehn, i go flog u o

its time 2 reactivate our thread. is unity cool or what!!!!!!

yup natty is coming out todaaayyyy!!!

been checking ubuntu.com intermittently. lol. have had my install for 5 months, thats a lifetime for me, think i need the new desktop to boost me up.

tried d new connectify thingy again. didnt work. well i could connect other devices to the pc with connectify, internet did not get shared either way. annoying. tho i may be gettng something wrong but i have taken my time 2 check, cant see what is wrong. i enabled ics for the izap, then tried for the wlan card. no joy.

other devices clearly show that the hotspot does not have internet access. NB: I tried adhoc too

@ lynx, this connectify thingy, does it work?

i tried it once, it specified internet sharing only for LAN connection (that my internet must be from my LAN), it refused to enable for wireless.

and i could'nt even get other devices to connect the the ad-Hoc sef

i think they have updated it, does it work fine now? wanna share izap on just 2 laptops.

can Arsenal's collapse be followed by a recovery. They need a new manager, they need their manager to realise that he doesn't always know best.

The required rebuild must start within his own team. He needs a new assistant with a new voice and fresh ideas. He needs new medical personnel and a new goalkeeping coach. He needs to start over again with a change of approach and an acceptance that money must be spent and that principles are pointless without pragmatism.

The deadwood - Almunia, Eboue, Squillaci, Diaby, Denilson, Rosicky - in Arsenal's flabby, over-indulged squad must be fleshed out. Players of authority, with a proven track record of winning must be acquired whatever the cost. Then Arsenal must finally return to basics on the training ground. Forget the triangles, remember the essentials. Shooting, crossing, set-pieces. All that pretty passing counts for nothing when chances are frequently missed at one end and all the opposing team has to do is hit one long ball to score at the other.

hehe, abeg all dis una post na stale gist, wetin una neva talk b4? talk sumtin new jo. so na bottle monsieur person wan fight all dese days im don talk fight till d end, modafker frenchie. stoopid arse megalomaniac. oloriburuku akoshibaero coach. enu trailer lo maa ku si.

Cesc Fabregas says Arsenal lack winning mentality


Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas says a lack of a winning mentality has led to the club's trophy drought since 2005.

The 23-year-old also believes manager Arsene Wenger would probably have lost his job if he was a coach in Spain.

"For me, it's a lack of a winning mentality, also of maturity in key moments. We have plenty of quality but lack this bit of confidence," he said.

The Gunners face Tottenham on Wednesday in what is a make-or-break fixture for their Premier League title ambitions.

Any result other than a victory for Wenger's side at White Hart Lane is likely to confirm a sixth straight season without silverware.

Fabregas told Spanish magazine Don Balon: "From 2007 I had already started saying we're not winning, but we're playing well. And then you realise that's no use.



There will be a moment when you have to decide to take the next step - to win or not to win.


"The problem is that the team needs to win something and that's why it was so important to win the Carling Cup [they lost 2-1 to Birmingham in the final].

"You have to make a decision: either go and win, or develop players."

Arsenal's 2-1 defeat by Birmingham in the Carling Cup final at Wembley began a spell in which the Gunners went out of the Champions League to Barcelona, exited the FA Cup at the hands of Manchester United and lost significant ground in the Premier League title race.

And Fabregas believes Arsenal boss Wenger would have faced increased pressure in Spain to produce trophies.

He continued: "It's clear that if you come to Spain and say to [Unai] Emery [the Valencia manager], [Pep] Guardiola or [Jose] Mourinho that they'll win nothing in the next three years, it's obvious they wouldn't continue [in their jobs].

"But here it's different. The boss is an intelligent person and the club values other things: that the team is always in the Champions League, that it fights until the end, that it brings young players through, the economic stability.

"I suppose for the board that's important, although I imagine there will be a moment when you have to decide to take the next step - to win or not to win."

Fabregas spoke of a marked contrast between the current Arsenal side and the 'Invincibles' of the 2003-04 Premier League season, who went throughout the entire league campaign unbeaten.

"The 'Invincibles' knew how to win games, when to dig in, when to attack," he said. "They had a special intelligence to read games.

"Now we are very young - Robin van Persie has won an FA Cup as I have but there's no more trophy winners."

Fabregas, who joined Arsenal from Barcelona on a free transfer in 2003, also talked about his own future.

"You have to have patience with things and wait for the right moment," he said. "The day that I leave Arsenal I will do it with my head.

"As well as that, who can be sure that you are going to play in a new team? Here I have the great fortune that at a personal level, despite not having won much, I'm doing very well."

If some day I do leave Arsenal, it will never be to sign for another English team


There was speculation in the summer of 2010 he would return to Barcelona and a bid for Fabregas of about £30m from the Spanish champions was turned down.

But the Arsenal skipper remained at the Emirates and is contracted to the club until 2014.

"I spoke with [Barcelona captain Carles] Puyol and he told me that at 26 he hadn't won anything - he has now won everything in the football world," Fabregas added. "Patience and hard work are the most important things in life.

"If some day I do leave Arsenal, it will never be to sign for another English team."
