Time travel

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.

ALL THE ABOVE ARE CANDIDATES BUT, APART FROM THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL, I WOULD PROBABLY CHOOSE THE 1999 SEMI-FINAL REPLAY AT VILLA PARK.

I WOULD TRY AND STOP DB10 TAKING THAT LAST MINUTE PENALTY AND SUGGEST SOMEONE ELSE TOOK IT. :roll: ALTERNATIVELY, I WOULD USE FLASH GUNNER'S AFOREMENTIONED SNIPER BULLET TO TAKE OUT RYAN GIGGS BEFORE HE SCORED THAT GOAL!! 8)

IMAGINE HOW DIFFERENT HISTORY MIGHT HAVE BEEN IF WE HAD GONE ON TO WIN THAT GAME, RATHER THAN LOSE IT. NO MANC TREBLE (AND BOY HAVE THEY LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT WINNING THAT SINCE!! :roll: ); A PROBABLE SECOND SUCCESSIVE DOUBLE FOR US (WHICH WOULD HAVE MADE HISTORY); INSTEAD OF THE 3 TROPHY-LESS YEARS WE ENDURED UP TO 2002 WE WOULD MOST LIKELY HAVE WON PLENTY MORE WHILE UNITED WON LESS, AND FERGUSON MIGHT NOT STILL BE IN CHARGE OF UNITED, WHICH WOULD HAVE MADE US FAVOURITES TO SIGN CRISTIANO RONALDO (IN WHOM WE WERE INTERESTED BEFORE UTD GOT HIM).

ANOTHER SUGGESTION WOULD BE THE EUROPEAN CUP TIE AGAINST BENFICA IN 1991, WHICH WE ENDED UP LOSING IN EXTRA TIME. WE REALLY SHOULD HAVE WON THAT MATCH AND MIGHT WELL HAVE GONE ON TO WIN THE TROPHY THAT SEASON HAD WE DONE SO. :(

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HURRY UP AND INVENT THAT BLOODY TIME-TRAVELLING MACHINE!! :lol: :wink:

Hard to think of a moment or time i would change

Maybe the 1998/99 season as it was the first season i really started going & remember on the last day against Villa, never forget & never forgive :twisted:

SOMEONE MAKE ONE, I'D HAVE SUCH A BLAST WITH ONE :lol: 8) TRUST ME ARSENAL WOULD BE THE DOGS BOLLOCKS

If I could attend any game, it'd definitely be the Liverpool game from 1989. Probably the greatest moment in the club's history.

If i'm more realistic, then i'd have loved to have gone to Arsenal 5-3 Middlesbrough in the 2004/05 season. Probably the most entertaining match in our Premiership history. I'd been offered a ticket via Ticketmaster, but opted out as it was on TV. Would have loved to have been there for such an extraordinary game.

I also would've enjoyed being at the 2005 FA Cup Final. A rather dull game from the neutral's point of view, but a rollercoaster ride for those involved; with a fantastic payoff at the end of it.

Edit: If I could change any result, it would either be the 1999 FA Cup Semi-Final (as it would've stopped Man Utd. doing the treble, and probably encouraged us onto the league title also), the Leeds/Arsenal game at the end of the 1998/99 season (often forgotten), and the dreaded Bolton/Arsenal game from 2002/03. Still, we'll have our revenge by doing the quadruple this season.

Great thread.

'71 at WHL, for me. I've heard many a tale from my Dad about it. Wish I could have been there.

If I could change any result, it would probably be the Champions League final. However, the '99 semi does still bother me to this day. I was there and it was a LONG journey home after that!
