You know we gave you Lee Dixon for free :shock:

Millions? There is no need for the s on the end.

Just because your club wanders from district to district doesn't mean you can count everyone as a fan.

wanders from district to district?? if your talking about us moving from south east london to the north in the early 1900s , the reason for that was because there was no decent football club in the north of london at the time and we needed to move there because of that and without Arsenal today there would be no Great football team in the North of London. God i love boasting ;)

correct without the FA Cup and Championsleague we wouldnt have scored for agesss :( RVP a bit off his game, and bendtner, well i have said what i think of him. Eduardo back very soon, Adebayor aswell and rosicky could be back with in four weeks. Walcott due back in next week or so, could be a late charge for that fourth spot.

Getting excited now. Can't wait for my 1st visit to the Emirates. Being a follower of CCC side Burnley, I don't get the opportunity to vist some of the countries top stadiums.

So this year has been a real treat. 5,200 tickets sold already and they go on open sale today.

Just as a side issues, Cardiff made a loss from their visit to Arsenal.

The gunners had insisted Cardiff either purchase 5,000 or 9,000 tickets. Cardiff decided to go for the 9,000 but only sold 7,000 so lost out on the 2,000 spare tickets which Arsenal couldn't / wouldn't accept back. This is due to crowd segregation and you either have to have just the bottom tier or both tiers, no halfway house. Arsenal's arguement was that if Cardiff had only taken the bottom tier 5,000 odd, then they could have sold out the top tier 4,000. But because Cardiff had 2,000 fans in there, the Gunners couldn't mix opposing fans so lost out on 2,000 ticket sales.

Should be awesome, especially with the Gooners scoring troubles at the moment. The Clarets made the Arse looke 2nd rate at Turf Moor. Would LOVE to see a repeat at degenrates.

Expecting a different game this time around. Despite thier lack of EPL goals, they looked pretty unstoppable against the Bluebirds mate.

We ahve been shite recently. Probably 47 games with such a small squad is taking it's toll. Just looking forward to the long, long weekend.

Staying in the same hotel again, 3rd time in 4 months so expecting a season ticket for next year and looking forward to a work break.

Anyway, hows it going my snowboarding friend? PM me with the news.

I've been told to think myself lucky that the flight gets back at 4:00 so we have just enough time to get straight to the game.

"Think myself lucky" wtf is that supposed to mean. :D

Now apparently it's my fault because I asked if there was any other London games on that week. If I hadn't asked she wouldn't have thought "I meant" we were playing at Palace. How come suddenly it's all down to me ?? Bloody women :roll: ;)

So you still hate Bentner?

In the Skysports wrap, they gave Bentner MOM and said 'Bendner's performance will have Van Persie worried'... :lol: =)) =))
