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.

Still sick as a pig about the cup final as we all are.. its now more than ever to get behind the boys, whatever you may think they all care just as much as we do. Orient are going to be up for it with an Army of fans behind them, its going to be difficult as a fan but it is VITAL that we back the boys. Lets get a run going again as we have some fucking massive games coming up
Wrong, yesterday was time to show fucking mental strength.
Yeah?
Might as well pack up and forget the other 3 competitions then aye mate?
We're dead men walking in the CL and FA Cup. Our eliminations will be to Barcelona and Man Utd. If you think otherwise - then where've you been for the past five years?
The league will now be our best shot, but on the basis that we've still to play Man Utd, Tottenham (away) and Stoke (away), and that we're already four points adrift, I don't see us doing it.
Another potless season for Wenger's chumps.
Well then lets hope there are more people supporting the lads on a matchday at the stadiums like me then there are you then
I didn't say that I wouldn't support them, did I? I hope I'm wrong, quite frankly. But based on what I've seen in recent years (and indeed, this season), I've every belief that we're done, in the CL and FA Cup at least.
You can support the club without having 100% faith in them to win every single trophy.

I can promise you i have 110% lost faith in us to win the Carling Cup this season
An army of 9,000 fans at OT??? I remember the last time I made that mistake in the FA Cup up there and I won't do it again. He picked a reserve side then and he'll do so again with the same result and I ain't falling for it.

Me neither mate, I've fallen for this one for the last time.

Ditto. I was up there too and promised to never again waste a day of my life (not to mention the costs involved) watching the reserves get thumped at OT.
If you've never been to OT before, then as a footballing fan it's a worthwhile experience, but if you're actually going with the expectation of seeing us turn them over, you're probably going to be very disappointed.
The best I can hope for is a draw, and then take home advantage back to the Emirates.
I think that both Sczesny and Koscielny should play against Orient - they don't need to be stewing over sunday all week - get them playing again, sharpish.
