As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
New to the forums but enjoyed some of the chat for a little while.
Lucky enough to be successful in the ballot again this year, but this time without my old man - so heading to the game on my own. Any suggestions for a good place for beers before? Don't normally go on my own.
Cheers
We'll be at the Globe opposite Baker St Station. I didn't go for the semi this year, but has always been good crack before that.

Look at the review centre. Seems like they rarely meet their ticket promises. Personally I would give this site a wide berth.
Where did you get your tickets from last year?
Got from a ticket compagny called Arte Denmark..sat in Club Level,,gave 700£..would rather sit beside Gooners..i am a Debenture holder, and that gave me at ticket for the CL final in 2006...now a days it gives me a week advance when buying tikcets for PL games towards ordinary Silver members
Saw a compagny called Abbey Sports had a ticket withhotel for 700 £...the cheepest i could find
Coming over from Denmark for vacation wirh family next saturday, so would rahter have it sorted out before that

TBF many posters call AW a sinner, and certainly he winges all too often, and doesnt use wingers enough, so they may be onto something here
Off the top of my head I can think of 4 times we have got to a final as holders of a cup and then lost. 1972, 1980, 1988, 1995.
And unless I am mistaken, only once have we retained a cup - 2003 in Cardiff.
That means we have never retained any cup at Wembley. Time to change that. Would also mean we equal Spurs feat of retaining the FA Cup twice I believe?
Cant be bothered looking any of this up so I am prepared to be corrected.

2003 was the only time we have retained a Cup, and first time we have retained anything since the League three in a row of the 1930s.

Thanks for the confirmation mate. That's a pretty poor retention record for a club of our stature.
