What's the significance of the two numbers 253440 and 12883680?

[Roygbiv]

Least I've been bothered about a derby defeat

As the title. Anyone else feel like this? Maybe I'm getting old, have too much work and family stress going on, an overload of football on TV these days or that Weds are just middling at the moment but I've never felt as 'meh' about losing to them as I have this time around. Used to seethe on it ...

This thread over there sums up just how much apathy is reaping through them or they’re telling porkies and not being true to themselves because I’m sure they’ll care on the return fixture.

What a set dull fucktards.

The group therapy session still going on then. Can't believe they're still only at the denial stage. They've got so many stages to go through yet.

I love the guy saying we're more bothered that they aren't bothered. On the same site where there is a 19 page thread wanting Wilder banned from football. It's been a bigger headloss than the 4-2

when you think about it
owls crowds are levelling off at 22000 now
of those say 7 or 8 thousand are under 30 and never seen a prem game since 2000
then perhaps another 4/5 thousand under 40 too late for the league cup win 34 years ago
Then all those who are under 62 or so say another 5000 werent around to be at boxing day game, NOW 55 YEARS AGO

so leaving over 62 s about the renaining 5000 who were actually seen all their good times

whereas its only 6 months since 30000 of Us attended a prem game all based on being watched by over 5/6 year olds who only go for the sweets

The Premier League has changed it's name twice. 1992-2007 The Premiership. 2007-2016 Barclays Premier League and 2016 - present, The Premier League.

The twin towers at the World Trade centre were still standing.
Wikipedia didn't exist.
The Euro (currency) didn't exist.
Facebook wasn't around.
There have been three Popes.
Concorde was still flying.

The first home broadband internet (ADSL) was released in 2000 and allowed people to simultaneously use the internet and their landline for the first time. By 2001 a massive 9% of UK households had broadband. By 2007 as many as 50% of homes had broadband access.

Gary Linekers entire MOTD career.

Did Wednesday feature on MOTD when Gary Lineker was presenter? Lineker presented for 25yrs so must’ve just snuck on the first season?

name some things that have happened since Pigs were last there….GO!

Well, all fairly recent, but apparently …

• Losing a game is now a victory
• Drawing a game is now a victory
• Losing a cup tie on penalties and going out is now a victory
• Sausage rolls became a symbol of anti-German sentiment
• Appearing as a pundit on ITV, and getting your team a mere one win off a relegation spot in 12 months means you will get the Germany manager’s job
• Singing “Swinging a Pig” is as much an indefensible incitement to violence as threatening to burn down a hotel full of women and kids

Probably more things too, but these are the main headlines

Wednesday ground hunting fans are still to tick off a visit to The Emirates Stadium.
