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.

fair play to the boys that stayed behind at the end. support sounded great all game. but all this scarf waving bollocks makes me cringe.
ps: did anyone else here gooners singing to rooney - fat granny shagger your just a fat granny shagger or am i just going slightly mad ??
yep we were singing that mate and the fact scouse *word censored* got all pissed off and started sliding in everywhere,really though our away support is absolutely incredible,well done to theo and cesc for coming over at the end and clapping us like we deserved
Just got back from the game myself and thought that we played well gilberto and song to come in and play aswell as they did - did well! But staying behind really showed the Man USA fans up, i mean at the services on the way home a man utd fan said how good we were! Nearly choked . I mean i know im not from North London but the amount of coaches with " Aberdeen Man Utd Supporters Club, South Wales Supporters Club, Midlands Supporters club" me and my mate counted 9 and the reception i got at the services ( Coach of Manure fans singing about eddie and adebayors mum and etc...) Whats all that about?
forgot to say. got interviewed by sky sports. it was shown on sky sports news! me and my bro (both arsenal fans) and my friend who was a man utd fan were asked about the game. gutted i didnt get to see it but my mates said we were on! haha
I'm just home too. I dont think our away support gets enough credit...I think we do need some more imaginative songs for our players though and a bigger songbook. Theo Theo Theo doesn't really do much for the imagination But imo we have actually improved away from home these last couple of seasons.
Nobody sitting down and chanting and singing all the way through. Even though I'd probably perfer Man Utd slightly to win the league/Champions league over Chelsea due to the Cashley/Terry/Lampard/Drogba factor it doesn't stop their supporters being absolute twats.
On the motorway getting abuse from Man Utd fans near bloody Luton, seeing their coach loads of Man Utd fans with Surrey on the coach.
They are so wrapped up in their own self importance. They really do think a lot of themselves and it would be hillarious to see them fuck it up.
Just got back within the last hour, I'm uploading a video from after the game onto Youtube now - I'm not sure I've ever been so proud to be a Gooner.
It's easy to sing when you're winning, but for all those hundreds of us to stay and sing for a solid 20+ minutes after the horrible end to a traumatic couple of months and a season of so much promise.. simply unbelievable!
yeh lincs123 your dead right mate, our time will be next season, we were so close today, and against chelsea, and liverpool, BIG UP our away support too, I saw em at man city ( i was in a citeh stand) and all you could hear was arsenal songs, if only there were more of you lot at ashburton....chins up, the squad needs a little tweaking thats all
