Get in early v Porto (REDaction)

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.

I didn't realise that we haven't overturned a European defecit since 1977-78 - :( :( :(


That is a frankly appalling record :cry:


We need all the assistance we can get.

Half-an-hour before kick-off? Isn't that when most 'fans' start making their way out of the ground.

"Stay to the end, old chap?"

"Oh, I simply can't. The butler's bringing the Jag round and I simply don't want those ghastly oafs getting their greasy, chip- stained fingers on the paint."

"Quite right."

Might be a reason why this seems so bad. When was the last time Arsenal had a first leg defecit?
I personally can't recall one.

Off the top of my head, the last one was 2005 after being thrashed 3-1 away in the snow by Bayern Munich. Before that, PAOK Salonika in 1997?

PSV? Man. Utd?
Nope, don't remember them. Didn't we win the Champions League for each of the last 5 years?

Porto - An early Kick off for all Gooners.

Results have gone our way recently, and the feelgood factor is back.

Arsenal fans everywhere should be confident of overturning the first leg deficit against Porto on Tuesday night, but it won’t be easy and we have to play our part.
Maybe the prospect of the Champions League Quarter Finals will shake up the sleeping masses at our home games, and get the blood pumping through their veins ; This is no time for Arsenal apathy ; your club needs you.. Let’s sing and shout for the cannon on our chests and in our hearts

Get into the ground early on Tuesday night, get into your seat, and get the Grove rocking pre kick off ; We need to be the twelfth man, to help inspire the team. If you need to make a sacrifice of one less drink in the pub, or leave the office 30 minutes earlier than usual, then do it in the name of The Arsenal.

To Madrid, to Madrid
We are going,
To Madrid, we will go to play,
To Madrid, to Madrid,
We are going,
WE ARE GOING AT THE END OF MAY

Come on you Reds

Please email [email protected] if you are in the lower tier of the North End for the Porto match and are able to help out with a flag display pre kick off
Great, nick another song. :roll:

Probably due to the fact that i was still slinging lager down my neck at 740pm and then got stuck outside with the best part of 800/1000 people still trying to get in through 3 turnstiles. My own fault and got to my seat 10 mins in.
