Re: Spuds game
Great day out yesterday, party atmosphere, lots of hugs and high fiveing total strangers,really loud singing, Ade getting a straight red, yipee! Football how it used to be! 

Re: Spuds game
Just nerves I think, it wasn't long after that goal that Wenger started making the bizarre substitutions and everyone was thinking "it can't happen again, surely". Other than that the place was buzzing pretty much all match, even when we were 1 down felt like the crowd were statying with the team.SteveO 35 wrote: Sounded like a decent atmos for the most part, although strangely subdued at 4-2 up (more so than when we were actually losing 0-1).

Re: Spuds game
I was there yesterday,Block 13,Row 5,North Bank Lower,what a great result! Obviously alot of credit must go to the idiot that is Adebawhore
,(incidently,shouldn't the F.A. consider a ban for him jumping the hoardings and "baiting" the Arsenal fans behind the goal?-he has got "previous").
The best wind up of the day,as far as I know,was done by a bloke that I seem to meet on the train to and from games.I met him on the way back,and he said that he had sent a picture message to a spud colleague of the 5-2 score on the screen from last year,then sent the 5-2 picture from yesterday with the message,"I am sorry mate,I sent you the wrong picture". GOOD SKILLS!!!

Re: Spuds game
Very nervy.... I thought spuds were back in it at 4-2..... Don't think their fans shared that view as they were still leaving in droves. Atmosphere picked back up though especially when we got the 5th......Skooner wrote:Just nerves I think, it wasn't long after that goal that Wenger started making the bizarre substitutions and everyone was thinking "it can't happen again, surely".

Re: Spuds game
loved yesterday, great weekend (suffering all day today but worth it)
just rewatched the game (I'm sad - my dad went home from the match and watch the whole 90 mins twice before MOTD!)
weird how hard it is to get beyond preconceptions - talking during the day yesterday (pished probably) I said:
Wenger lost control of the game by bringing on Rambo and Santos for no reason
all they did was lose the ball over and over again
we were getting battered so badly at 4-2, with Bale toasting us, that he had to make another change
Ox was a great sub regained the impetus for us and we pushed on for 5-2
after rewatching: Wilshere and Podolski get tired THEN Sperz get on top
the period where Bale really looks dangerous was earlier than I imagined (and he has a few runs, scores a good goal but never consistently imposes himself - monkeys performance looked less good 2nd time round)
Santos actually does very little wrong, one time he's dispossessed he works hard to regain the ball
Rambo's first pass totally opened them up but Theo took a terrible touch,
another time than Rambo lost it was actually a crap pass from Ox
Ox gives it away really badly a couple of times
my brains drunk memory 'highlight reel' edited those out
WTF was the BFG doing for the goal...?
Szcz's attitude stunk - play FFS, don't act like we're hanging on at home

Had an absolute blast with HighburyJD who took me for pre and post match drinks.
Atmosphere was good, lots of singing and so on, shame you just can`t stand up for 90% of the match![]()

Arsenal's 24-year-old striker Nicklas Bendtner, currently on loan at Juventus, says he would not rule out a move to Tottenham if he has to leave the Gunners on a permanent basis next summer.

Re: Spuds game
Hahahaha!! Fuck you tottingham!
Brilliant fucking game, the town clown got himself sent off and we raped them a new asshole prison-style!
Only downer was Theo fucking Walcott. Had a tenner on Arsenal 4-2 @ 35/1 and he pops up and fucking ruins it for me!!
Fuck it, it was worth it!
Well done to Arsene, trying to fucking let them back in it by bringing on Ramsey and Fat Santos, very generous...
Great result over the scum, and that's all that matters! I just never stopped smiling all day Saturday.

How much of our players reaction stems back to the fans outrage at the behaviour of santos and the rest prior to and at half time of the game at old shatford ? Tbh I am a huge fan of sagna (best right back in the world for me

Btw gallas (another c**t) is saying in today's papers that greedybayor was very sorry after the game - it wasnt that the mercenary lazy b*****d actually apologised to his team-mates but gallas could see it in his face
