Arsenal's transfer negotiator is like me doing last-minute shopping in Thailand:

Me: How much for that magnet?
Shopkeeper (S): 120 Baht
Me: No, I'll pay only 30
S: 120
Me: OK, take 60
S: 120
Me: Fine, I'll pay 90 final price
S: 120
Me: OK (pays 120)

Made a payment from my @HDFC_Bank savings account to my @AxisBank credit card. The money is lost in transit. Both banks have washed their hands off the matter, and want me to ask the other. @RBI what's the solution? I'm reminded of the chorus of a famous Stealer's Wheel song!

Fantastic experience right now with @airindia customer service. Your team member Ritesh Saxena handled my request superbly. Professional, empathetic, efficient. Felt more like an interaction with an employee at a top hotel, rather than a customer service back-office. Superb!

@arnoldmugogo @ArsenalN7 I was about to say that myself, but was sure that someone else would have noticed and highlighted it. 😊

Such humility and grace!

@clivepafc Clive, I feel we should go for Watkins. He will want us the most, he is PL-ready, and spending less on a #9 allows us to go big on a winger. We should go to PSG and ask for Doue. Buying Watkins may just give us the budget for that. There will be other strikers in 2 years' time.

@ICC @ProteasMenCSA @ausmencricket Jay Shah appears only 11 times??!! You've sold him short, ICC. He is the great leader, after all...

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@Vinamralongani @airindia Well said. So many ignorant and insensitive comments.

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@YankeeGunner This is as daft as the shockwaves when teammates fight / disagree with each other! Happens all the time, and is so normal. And beneficial.

@pv_mk @gareebscientist Change in direction of wind!

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@gareebscientist @pv_mk My flight from CCU did this at 12:43 PM yesterday.

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@UrvakshM @gareebscientist Oh wow, it probably was, if it was AI 2706 from CCU!

@markgoldbridge Kicked him below the ankle, I guess. That's allowed, apparently!

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@FunnyGooner Was it below the ankle or above? Apparently that's important these days!🤣

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@10akhil If we lived in a parallel Michael Oliver universe where refs didn't despise Arsenal and Arteta, Silva could have been given two yellow cards - one for kicking the ball away and another for kicking Trossard! 🤣

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@JordanC1107 While Nwaneri's numbers and offensive impact have surprised me, Lewis-Skelly has come out of nowhere. What a season, and what a player! Elite mentality, and I just hope both him and Ethan follow Saka's character playbook to the letter.

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@clivepafc Thank you, Clive! Thank you. Everyone is calling it incompetence. But you've hit the nail on the head. Corruption from the referee and his VAR cronies. AGAIN!!

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@johncrossmirror He forgot to add "corrupt"

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@HarrySymeou They're not useless. They're corrupt. And football is useless for letting this carry on.

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@bhavss14 100% corruption. Incompetence isn't this bad.

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@piersmorgan Use your position and status to launch an investigation into football officiating. This is far worse than incompetence. It's blatant corruption.

[Ratan Postwalla @ratanpostwalla]

@henrywinter Maybe also mention how we get the absolute WORST of officiating. Another goal ruled out for nothing. Another win taken away, and I'm struggling to say there isn't some mischief afoot.
