OK, anybody on here reckon they were closer than me to TH12 when he hit it? I was in the front row of block 7.
Yes i know its pathetically childish but......
Also I was on such a high on the way out, I stopped at one of those little merchandise booths to buy Chippy Jnr a TH12 shirt. 64 fucking £!!!!!!!!!!!
Still according to C Jnr I am now a legend along with Henry.

Probably me!
I got asked, last minute, to cover the game by our paper and was taking photo behind advertising hoarding the side Henry scored and celebrated.
You must have been just behind me!
(only I was in block 5 and I'm not even a photographer!)

In isolation a fantastic moment, but if you really look at it, it has to be an all time low for the Arsenal project over the last 5 years.
Could be a double win in the long run.
Don't get me wrong the rest of the game was shite, and (dare I say it) most of the rest of what TH12 did was not brilliant. But it will live long in the many memories I have of the great man.

truth is, we know what will happen for the rest of this season (dip in form, injuries, no trophies, no signings). only thing we're not sure yet is if we're playing in europe next season or not, but honestly i don't give a fuck.
so an evening like yesterday must be savored by what it was - a brilliant moment from arguably the greatest player ever to wear the shirt. let's just enjoy it

You just know that is the confirmation wenger needed that he dont need to sign another striker I suppose it is the opposite of what we have been spoon fed by the akb for the last few seasons........short term gain for long term pain

Got to agree with this, of course a great moment last night, but it makes the money men at our club even happier, no further player purchases, more shirt sales and then left in the same lurch in around 6 weeks time with the same shit forwards.
