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.

Because of the birthday bit there will also be some non-Arsenal going (not the game but the pub) so looking for somewhere we can meet before the game and where they can stay to watch it.
We normally go to the Pins or the Gunners, the Gunners is ruled out because they "others" won't have membership cards and the Pins is a bit of a barn!

Cheers Goose. Toilet without a seat eh?
Go to The George mate.
No toilet seats there either
Are the renovations in Phibbers finished yet
Fuck 'em. I don't really care where they go. I'll only be meeting them before and after anyway. Another reason why we have to win Saturday, I'll be stuck with these pricks for the night
Hope everyone going to it is in good voice and for those new to it, enjoy the experience - still one of the great days in the football calendar. I can't buy into this attitude that celebrating a victory over them is somehow belittling and reduces us to their level - only a modern day snob who thinks that the Chumpions Boreathon is the only thing worth playing for could take that view
Beat them, rub their noses in it, celebrate like fuck,....hell why not even make a DVD.

Auld Triangle...St T Road...proper Irish pub(as far as London can do)...service is great/shite depending on who you get!....5 mins(max) walk to ground. I like it.....others won't.
Will be there with my son Patrick...COYG! Can't contemplate a loss
Im travelling up from Bournemouth where I currently live for my first London derby in 19 years.
The last one I went to was when i lived at home with my parents in Nth London when i was about 13 for the FA Cup semi.
Tony Adams was the man that day.. We were our usual defensive selves that day, but it didnt matter.. we beat the scum, therefore school was easier monday morning..lol...
This time round, its in the league.....and whats changed in that time??????
In terms of power FUCK ALL!!!
They are still in our shadow....
But ive never been so nervous in all my time as a Gooner.
I decided this year to make more of an effort as ive been annoyed by too many sp*ds and i got a ticket in what is now the Clock End (WTF???) next to them grimey fuckers so i can give them hell...
I still trust in Arsene.....of course i do as i remember life under George Graham, Stuart Houston ( his fucking constant whistling and shouting "Merse Merse" like he was the only one having a bad game) and of course Bruce Rioch.....
Im gonna find a wattering hole and prepare saturday morning. Get rid of my nerves and lubricate my vocal cords.
Been to most of the home NLDs in the last 10 years. Fucking roller coaster or what? I'm surprised my heart didn't give out last year and the year before and as for the 4-4
However I'm pretty convinced the scum will be more up for this tan we will. 1-2. You know whobayor to score at least 1.
