🚨 Mikel Arteta agrees new Arsenal contract. #AFC boss into last year of deal but all sides aimed to extend since talks started in spring; improved terms now in place for 44yo & coaching staff also in process of renewing @TheAthleticFC post @SamiMokbel_BBC https://t.co/eYtlzKBPY3
Emmanuel Petit on Premier League clubs mocking Arsenal after the final defeat:
🗣️ “I have to say, I found it embarrassing.
The second Arsenal lost, some Premier League clubs couldn't wait to jump on social media and remind everyone about their European trophies.
That tells you everything.
Instead of supporting an English club representing the league on the biggest stage in club football, they were busy celebrating Arsenal's pain.
For me, that's not rivalry. That's insecurity.
Arsenal were 90 minutes away from doing something special, and rather than show respect, people were desperately searching through the history books for old trophies to post online.
Why? Because they were terrified of seeing Arsenal join that club.
Let's be honest, some of these clubs spent the entire season watching Arsenal compete at a level they couldn't reach.
The jealousy was obvious.
The moment Arsenal fell short, they treated it like they had won something themselves.
That's the mentality of people who would rather see Arsenal fail than focus on their own success.
The trophy may have slipped away, but the reaction from some rivals showed exactly how much Arsenal still live rent-free in their heads.”
Open Letter to @playriftbound, @riftboundop and @davetron
We kindly ask @RiftboundReport, @TurnThemSide, @Challengertcg, @LotharHS, @The_Blevins, @CasanovaCasts and anyone who can help amplify this to assist us in reaching the right people. Our DMs are open, and we can provide proof of everything stated below.
We are players who preorder boxes, lend cards, drive to Regionals, help our local game stores pair rounds, and soon will be streaming weekly content to grow the scene. Yet every set we see the same logistics gaps hurt the stores that host us.
• Origins booster boxes arrived weeks late; many stores never received the Release Kits.
• Spiritforged Pre-Rift kits reached most shops only two days before the first event, while the remaining booster allocation was routed elsewhere in February and has still not arrived.
• Unleashed kits have not left the warehouse as of 30 April, and the 1-7 May prerelease window opens tomorrow.
Summoner Skirmish prizing follows a similar timeline:
• Origins champion mats arrived after the season closed
• Spiritforged prizing reached stores halfway through the set’s rotation
• Flash promos have not been mentioned
Each delay forces organisers to refund entry fees, cancel events, and watch new players walk away. These repeated issues raise a simple question: is the current Norwegian distribution set-up able to meet the shipping dates UVS publishes?
We are not alleging bad faith—only asking for clarity and a process that matches the community’s willingness to support the game.
We respectfully request:
• An audit of the chain that handles Norwegian prerelease kits, booster allocations, and promo shipments
• Replacement of the missing Spiritforged stock so stores can fulfil events they already advertised
• Enforce distribution to send confirmed ship dates and tracking numbers for future releases—before the published event week begins
• Evaluation of an additional, independent distribution channel for the Nordic market;
Relying on a single source has shown its limits since launch and a back-up route could prevent future shortfalls.
Reliable delivery lets us focus on what we do best: filling tables and growing Riftbound in Norway.
