Champions League and Europa Cup Games

Post by BIG RADDY »

At 7.45 tonight the world will stand still (according to the special one) well there won't be in my house.
Why the feck is everyone going overboard about this game tonight?
Yes I will be watching it but I'll being laying on my sofa with a few beers cheering on Madrid (oh how us gooners hate the mancs).
My beef is and have always has been that Arsenal didn't get the credit they deserved when we beat the Gallacticos in 2006.
Yes I was there when Titi hit the onion bag. But then they had Carlos,Figo,Raul,Zidane,Robinho,Ronaldo oh yes and golden balls. All they have now is the gypsy Ronaldo, ok a few others but not the team that THE MIGHTY ARSENAL beat

I've decided to cheer myself up tonight by going along with a Luton supporting mate of mine to their game at Nuneaton....

I've seen them beat us in the League Cup Final, and was there when we lost a cup replay (0-3?) on their plastic (or was it rubber??) pitch. So with all our woes about getting (or about to anyway) knocked out of the CL by Bayern, or finishing below our rivals for the first time in my kids living memory, or finishing 5th in the Premier League and "only" qualifying for the Europa League....it'll be a an absolute pleasure being with other footie fans who have a tad more to be p*ss*d off about than us :barscarf: !

Ramos? Alonso? Ozil? Benzema? Kaka? Higuain? Di Maria? Pepe? Marcelo?

Tell me about it. It kicked off big style when Looton came to Lincoln this season. Chairs and glasses flying all over the place. Women and young kids caught up in it, several of them got injured.

I would slag them off but Lincoln are as fucking bad. Got more current banning orders on the go than fans.

Look out for Looton's Janos Kovas - he makes Mertesackershit look cultured.

I can def see them tying to bring Ronaldo back, whether or not Grannybandit's used to fund it.

If United go out tonight it means we are the last English team left in the CL. Another trophy for our cabinet. :barscarf:
