Wilshere charged by FA over FA Cup chants

In news that would make you lose whatever little faith you have left in the people who run football organisations, Jack Wilshere has been charged with misconduct for his post-FA Cup chanting at the Arsenal parade.

In front of the gathered fans the midfielder asked what the assembled crowd thought of Tottenham. They replied that they thought Tottenham were shit.

As a follow up, he then asked them what they thought of shit and the reply was ‘Tottenham’. He then thanked them for their answers and those thanks were graciously acknowledged.

However, today the dimwitted gobshites at the FA today announced that Wilshere would face a charge. Their statement reads:

Jack Wilshere has been charged with misconduct in relation to Arsenal’s FA Cup celebrations on Sunday 31 May 2015.

It is alleged his conduct in making and/or inciting certain comments during the club’s open bus trophy tour was improper and/or brought the game into disrepute.

The player has until 6pm on 10 June 2015 to respond to the charge.

Far be it for us to offer advice in situations like this, but if were us we’d be very tempted to make our response a two-fingered one.

In a week when the widespread, endemic corruption in FIFA has been exposed, and Leicester City players were involved in alleged racial abuse during an orgy that was filmed and leaked onto the Internet, Wilshere celebrating with his own fans is as far from bringing the game into disrepute as you can get.

But then the FA have shown themselves to be pathetic and spineless before. Rather than address the real issues they focus on the easy targets.

It’s also worth asking how far the remit of the FA extends. Is an Arsenal celebration at a non-FA sanctioned event open to their disciplinary procedures? And if they’re so concerned about offensive chanting, why aren’t there blanket charges for things that happen inside football grounds every weekend.

The whole thing is shameful.

And suddenly it’s the FA who turn out to be shit.

Jiminho

Hmmm…suddenly?

Springbank 1962

The FA – FIFA without the uncertainty.

Point taken.

FA – FIFA without the ‘if’.

I for one applaud this swift, decisive, moral-guardianing FA.

Once Jack is dealt with seriously, I expect they’ll be handing out the death penalty to those Leicester lads for bringing the English game into disrepute.

CB

Btw, is that Jack or Alexis in the photo? Look a lot like Alexis!

The FA – Doing a remarkable job of proving they’re more shite than Tottenham. Americans must target FA now.

EuripidesMac

Suddenly, out of no where, like a torrential onslaught of diarrhea they prove their quality: Totten’m.

Az Ahmed

Why are we looking at teams so far below us? Who is Tottenham? Why do we care so much about them as to talk about them? They couldnt be more worthless to us. They are a thing of the past. I don’t even consider it a rivalry. A rivalry is where there is genuine competition. What competition is this team in white? We need to start looking up at the Chelseas and Citys

We’re The Arsenal – we’re the best team in the world.

Tottenham = shit

I get your point and am being somewhat facetious, but even when spurs get relegated, we will ALWAYS remind them they’re shit!

Rossi88

I agree with your point. The last 10 years we have been forced to sell our best players and accept the consequences, being unable to win the league etc. What the Fuck have spurs done in this period?? I get their local neighbors and all that but the truth of the matter is they are shit. They look to us in the table as if finishing above us is THE goal of the season?!?! Grow a pair and aspire to be better then another club ffs. And we have, as expected risen from the ashes. I personally don’t consider spurs… Read more »

Exactly. We don’t need to bother with mediocrity. This is like the first rivalry between Stone Cold and the Rock, when Stone Cold gave his intercontinental title up to him and said I got bigger fish to fry, and stunnered him. Tottenham is small fish. We got bigger fish to fry

Fat Fingers

I agree we have bigger fish to fry, and I think most fans hate Chelsea/United more, it’s fun laughing at Sperz. Comparing football with actual competition to scripted acting in WWE though :/

It is nice for them to have some attention. How will they get it otherwise?

Sometimes the only answer to such nonsense is a WTF! followed by hitting your head against a convenient hard surface.

In any case, everyone knows that Tottenham Are Shit.

Hasn’t he already apologised via Twitter?

Sharing back2back Cup wins with so many amazing Gooners is a dream come true. Apologies if I upset or offended any of u with my celebrations.

Paul

I don’t think Jack has to apologise for Tottenham being shit

Third Plebeian

Agreed. In fact, I think Tottenham should apologise for being shit.

PauloDiGunnio

Next Season, when we play Shit at home, we owe Jack the gesture of solidarity to belt the song out extra loud on his behalf. And I have a sneaking suspicion that, when it’s only fans singing, the FA won’t give a Tottenham.

Haha, brilliant.

I just knew that the FA would jump on this, just knew it. Now all we need is the overwhelmingly pro-Shit media to push it along like they always do. Feck ’em. All.

They’ll fine Arsenal.

How about their darling Utd (actually all clubs to be fair, but them fucking especially) clearly yelling “fuck off!” and other insults at refs during matches broadcast all over the world? That’s fine? But a PLAYER singing a song that THOUSANDS of fans sing day in day out year after year gets sanctioned? Nanny state cunts.

Humayun

People are fined for stating the truth. Disgusting!

Sorry but I agree with this. Perhaps Arsenal should have fined Wilshere too. Arseblog is probably right to say it is “worth asking how far the remit of the FA extends” but that is irrelevant to the fact that our player should never had uttered the chant. Just an opinion.

Left, I agree that Wilshere should not have reprised his silly stunt from last year. (Few players are this disrespectful, for a reason.) But for the FA to get involved is absurd. If Wenger didn’t have a word with Jack about this previously, he ought to now.

N5

I’m sure Wilshere couldn’t give a fish’s tit and would do it all over again.

What about charging Manchester united and their fucking who hate been hurling pedophile abuses at Wenger for years and nobody bats an eyelid.
All this during an official game sactioned by the FA.

I can understand if some juveniles engaged in taunts.

Guess my post willl be a thumbs down magnet but you would be furious if spurs engaged in such behavior.

Doesn’t mean I don’t love Jack.

I honestly wouldn’t. My post also probably came across a little strong- totally understand your opionion, but I feel like this kind of thing is really missing from the game. Remember a while back (’11 i think) I went up to OT for a 2-0 FA Cup loss. Evra walked past us all cupping his hand to his ear and giving it a bit which, as annoying as it was, I think engages the fans a lot more. I hated him until that point, but that improved my perception of him (slightly). Everyone loves a pantomime villain. I think fans’… Read more »

Hey original Paul I am the new Paul in town your days are over fuck off

Arsepedant

I was at that match at Old Toilet too. Every time Evra touched the ball all the away supporters chanted “Evra Evra you’re a cunt”. When I got back home and watched the delayed broadcast on TV you could hear it clearly. Meanwhile, the Yernited supporters were busy chanting about how Wenger is a pedophile.

Not a peep from the FA.

But now, for something considerably milder at an event that had nothing to do with the FA, they want to crack down? I hardly know where to begin, except to say Blatter was a good start …

Hurensohn

I bet I don’t just speak for myself when I say I couldn’t give two fucks what Sp*rs fans get up to in their spare time. I don’t need to see or hear it to imagine they’ll be slagging us off all over the place either. No t once have I give a fuck. Power to them, should they ever get anything worth bragging about, I won’t play sore loser.

Ben

I couldn’t give a toss either.

If they shouted something like that I’d laugh and point at the trophy cabinet.

AntiSpud

They are doing it mate. They are just too small that you have to lower yourself to notice it. They come make fool of themselves in front of emirates and put it on YouTube. They never an opportunity to get on a centre stage like jack did that’s why. You saw some Chavs celebrating the cup they bought in front of our stadium.

sajit

Our double standards are exposed when we loathe adebator for his celebration vs us @etihad but praise jack. Wait till you hear rival players sing arsene pedo chants during their parades.

Left

Actually there isn’t much difference at all. Players are role models. Arsenal issued official apology to Spurs after the parade. If they thought it was OK they probably wouldn’t have done that.

Gillespie Road

Sorry, but there is a huge difference.

Calling Arsene Wenger a paedophile is slander. It’s alleging that he has committed a criminal offence that he has not committed. That is an actual crime.

Calling Spurs ‘shit’ while celebrating winning the FA Cup with Arsenal, while it may cause some Helen Lovejoy types to get themselves all flustered and ‘WON’T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN?’ is not a crime. It’s not a crime to swear in public.

Is it juvenile? Maybe. But that’s a value judgement. It’s certainly not comparable to alleging that a man committed a crime though.

Paul

I worry about all the paediatrincians being given free access to Paul Scholes

Thierry Bergkamp

Too much double standards on this site.
That Utd chant about Wenger is no different from the Arsenal chant implying that RVP is a rapist (the same fans btw who loved him after his arrest, while still an Arsenal player).

Third Plebeian

Well said, Gillespie.

mhmhm

From a legal point of view there is a massive difference. Saying that Tottenham is shit is just an honest opinion about a football team that in truth are shit in comparision with Arsenal. Whilst branding someone a criminal (paedophile…) without evidence is illegal.

Abuse is abuse Arseblog. No matter where or who it comes from. All I’m saying is that Arsenal players are ambassadors for the club. He should not be swearing or appearing absolutely hungover at an official event. At any other company as high-profile as Arsenal this behavior is not tolerated.

Coq Au Vin

We are called Arsenal Football Club not Arsenal, Inc. Theirin lies the rub…

MC1892

There’s also a huge difference between a rival singing about us and taking the piss whilst on their own parade and 20 feet in front of our away fans..

Dick Swiveller

No, you may impose double standards on others but the majority of people don’t really give a Spurs about what other people sing.

Rozza the samourai

You are as off target as shots made by Adebayor on the pitch the past two years. Jack never played for Tottenham so your Adebayor example went way over the bar. Why would you compare Wilshere chant to the unacceptable chant against Arsene ? We all know what is totally unacceptable. I remember most Arsenal fans fiercely expressed their disagreement with unacceptable religious things that were said against Tottenham owners and fans in the past. Most Arsenal fans found Frimpong an idiot when he tweeted derogatory comments that had reference to faith. A bit of comparing rotten apple to oranges… Read more »

WengersNoseHair

Er, besides the massive differences everyone else has pointed out, no one asked the FA to fine Adepaywhore for his celebration against us. It may have pissed us off, but nothing more. What a world we live in when people cannot realise the absurdity of charging someone for what is basically common, harmless ‘banter’.

Springbank 1962

Three points.

1. In order for it to be a taunt the object has to be watching (as if).
2. Not everyone who thinks that something is ‘shit’ is a juvenile.
3. Sp*rs are indeed ‘shit’ though I now expect shit to take exception with this.

Rajthegoon

I get your point but this entire chant is being blown out of proportion. I don’t get why they don’t make an example out of Tottenham for using a racism term in their chant. FA really do make a mountain out of a mole hill.

Football is business and nothing more. The FA are likes bankers, only interested in their own welfare and lining their pockets etc. I’m losing all my love for what was once a beautiful game.

This!
It’s also worth asking how far the remit of the FA extends. Is an Arsenal celebration at a non-FA sanctioned event open to their disciplinary procedures? And if they’re so concerned about offensive chanting, why aren’t there blanket charges for things that happen inside football grounds every weekend.

Miranda

A reasonable point but unfortunately reasonable is irrelevant here. The FA believes their remit extends throughout the known universe – not to be applied with any logic or consistency, just when they happen to feel like throwing their weight around. They often sanction players for relatively inoffensive comments on twitter. Terry’s racist abuse on the pitch, however, was apparently outside their jurisdiction.

yes

because the things sung in stadiums up and down the country every week are being sung by fans, its not like the fa is trying to charge the arsenal fans that attended the parade

Arsene's Zip

He should bung ’em another £20k and call them cunts on the way out of the meeting too.

Some people need to grow a sense of humour

Neil

He did the same chant last year aswell and nothing came of it? Sounds like some high up from sp*rs has thrown their toys out of the pram about it..

i was wondering why this was only an issue this year as well. I think its more likely that it was picked up by journalists who dont have anything better to do and the fa just jumped on the bandwagon like a bunch of fools

Someone enlighten me.

Where does that whole chant derive from?

Seeing as he made the same “rant” last year, why is it only bothering the FA now? Such a ridiculous scenario to charge him. Anyway… Tottenham are indeed shit!

Charvakan

Maybe because he did it last year, and his repeating it has convinced the FA that Arsenal FC is OK with Jack’s doing it. I doubt that AFC is OK with it. It was a little dumb last year, and this year it’s really dumb. Ignore the cock on a ball. It’s pathetic to celebrate the winning of a great tournament by running down a rival (who by the way took four points off us this season). I would encourage Jack to channel this feeling about Spuds into a good performance against them next season rather than a witless scatological… Read more »

Rob67

The Leicester business is a murky one and remains to be seen.

But the FA have no business is saying or doing anything with regards to Johnson and neither has anyone else. This is now the subject of criminal case and in order to ensure that there is no prejudice, the law must take it’s course.

Everyone – without exception – is innocent until proven otherwise. Any action by the FA or anyone else that undermines that is contempt of court. Another crime.

Goonerbert

My point isn’t that the FA should get involved in either of them, it’s that they say nothing. We’re talking about bringing the game into disrepute. Jack has only sung along with the fans in a ceremony that has no FA involvement and is only for Arsenal fans. Yet they feel the need to poke their nose in mainly because the media have turned it into something it more than it was. Leicester, as you say remains to be seen. Now I agree, innocent until proven guilty and I’m not saying Adam Johnson should have been banned, fined or reprimanded… Read more »

Crash Fistfight

It remains to be seen in the sense that you can actually watch the (edited) version of the video on the Mirror website, so I think it’s pretty obvious that they have done what the newspaper has said they have done (if they hadn’t, the newspaper could be taken to court on charges of libel).

I would have thought that indulging in an orgy with three women of probably questionable character, whilst audibly racially abusing them brings the game into disrepute moreso than a footballer saying a swear word. Clearly I have my priorities all wrong.

assistantref

No it isn’t. The presumption of innocence applies in a criminal court. Not to society at large. You seem rather confused.

Jack is legend! FA is spineless. End of discussion.

The same folks who laud Jack now will criticize him when he is next caught binge drinking or smoking. This shows a lack of maturity from Jack. Despite advancing in years Jack hasn’t developed maturity.

Springbank 1962

This isn’t about Jack being immature. Look at the rest of the bus while while he’s got the microphone. Then look around at the rest of us laughing along with him. Especially those like Szczesny and Bellerin who’ve been brought up as ‘Gooners’.

The charge that the FA is making is absurd. Rather like bad poetry only infinitely more hilarious.

Randy Pan the Arsenal Fan

Could we inaugurate the FA Vogon poetry awards?

Who cares if he hasn’t matured. As long as he performs on the pitch and doesn’t participate in anything illegal off the pitch, what’s the issue? For all I care, he can smoke and drink as much as he wants. Fuck being mature, it is overrated.

When was he caught binge drinking? Christ, as long as he’s not too unfit to play and gaining weight like Ricky Hatton between fights, who cares if he has a beer and a fag every now and again?!

Do you think that when Szczesny posted a video of him playing the piano to take the piss out of Tottenham he brought the game into disrepute, or does it only count if someone uses ‘indoor’ language outdoors?

Dick Swiveller

I hope we contest the charge, we won’t as that would only make things worse because it’s easy to spot a kanagaroo court, but we should just spam them with calls for action every time anything even slightly bad ever happens. Terry falls over? Call for bringing the game into disrepute, he was mocking thsoe with balance problems. RvP mentions tofu in an interview? Mocking vegetarians. Player whips his shirt off? Mocking the obese who can’t take it off quite so easily.

Robstar

FA are right on this. He is an arsenal employee and is held to a higher standard then the fan on the street. Saying “this set of fans did this” or ” this set of players did that” is not an excuse. He said more than what do you think of Tottenham by the way. We as a club are better than this. We should leave this kind of behaviour to Chelsea fans and their manager.

Swedishgunner

Fuck FA. Pathetic pile of garbage. If they continue down this road we should soon see Kos banned for 5games when he empties his pockets of the players he’s owned this year and forgets to recycle properly.

I hope both Sp*rs and the FA realize that the longer this goes on for the more Jack is going to be cemented as a folk hero.

I hope they also realize that any sanction should affect his playing for England long before he plays for us again in earnest.

But then what can we expect from an organization that gets given £16,000 watches and has to be shamed into (effectively) giving them back.

Yeah. It’s just FIFA that’s the problem.

I would also prefer players are not hungover at official events (as Wilshere evidently was). There’s no excuse really. I don’t care what other clubs do or other players or what they chant at other stadiums. Our players should be disciplined. They represent the club. I remember George Graham used to make them remove earrings.

I strongly disagree, as I do not think he had hangover – he was probably drunk. I just hope that from now on there will be two versions of the chant – one with the poor neighbours, and the other with FA.

Randy Pan the Arsenal Fan

George only did that because the earrings dug into his hands when he was giving the players a rough buggering as punishment for an inadequate on pitch performance.

But then, he was old fashioned that way too.

Again the We-Know-Sweet-FA have shown their true colours. Its OK for Chelski fans to chant sexist chants at their Physio. Its OK for Manchester Utd fans to call Arsene a pedophile. Its OK for West Ham to indulge in Anti-Semetic chants. But for a player to banter with his own fans using a chant which they use week-in, week-out is unacceptable?

AntiSpud

For all those saying that jack is is no longer 18 and that sort of bollocks. Jack is a true Gooner. You cannot be a Gooner and respect Spuds. Now most keep it to themselves that’s hypocrisy some are brave anough to exteriorise it that’s Jack and it’s called sincerity. He asked a question and the public answered be best they could. If FA think that’s wrong then they should tell Spuds to stop being shit and to stop being in our shadow. FUCKING MORRONS

Fatgooner

Come on, guys! Get real!

Yes, Spurs are shit, but Wilshere has been in football long enough to know that you can’t publicly say what he did. The frustrating thing now is that he might get a ban, which will hurt his promising comeback and could affect our early games next season.

This incident highlights the problem that the club has with Wilshere: he’s a Jack-the-lad who has a nasty habit of finding himself in trouble away from the pitch. He should take a long hard look in the mirror.

Dick Swiveller

I know, and he smoked a cigarette. Twice, and he probably even inhaled, the bastard.

The question of the FA’s remit is worth asking. Having said that Wilshere did something similar last year and was warned about it. This time he’s pushed his luck and whilst I agree the FA’s involvement is sledge hammer v nut, this is player who has had a rubbish season – again and badly needs to get his career back on track. Scholes comments – last year – were entirely valid and you can thumb this down all you want. They were.
