Class draw.

Last time we played these lot, Wenger was still a good manager.

Maybe playing them will jolt him back into the days of modern day football where managers use tactics and positive substitutions. Fucking hell if we're lucky and draw AFC Wimbledon in the FA Cup maybe he'll have a full-scale epiphany stop selling our best players.

An embarrassment of a game it was like watching Sunday League football If im honest id be disappointed to beat Reading 7-5 over a two leg match, Arsene has made us into the new sp*rs getting our kicks from watching fucking shit like that last night

I remember when George Graham used to be pissed off if we conceded a goal in a match now we're conceding 5 against Reading and getting excited by it to be fair even Wenger looked embarrassed when the 7th went in.

Total 100% embarrassment

time of the month flash

No just can't get excited about shit mate

For what it's worth...here is my view of last nights game.
1) Really disappointed with Kos performance ....he was very poor.

2) I thought Walnut was "missing" in the 1st half , but much better in the second half.

3) Arshavin was poor ...most of the game...although he did have the better of Reading's defenders when running at them late in the second half.

4) Chamak worked hard & did well.

5) Giroud changed the game when he came on....he got stuck in, held the ball up well, & show some nice touches.

6) Reading...what a crunt of a place to get to & get out off seeing how close it is to the motorway....it took me over an hour to get off the M4 to a parking space....getting home was even worse...we got back to Essex at 1.30 AM

7) It was my birthday yesterday, & I will remember til I die being there, watching a great Arsenal comeback on my birthday with my son.

Happy Birthday
what a great present.
Agree - although I thought Walcott was at least buzzing around a lot trying to make runs 1st half.
Still can't believe how bad Kos was, worst I've ever seen him play.

And we still never won there if my memory serves me right

Bradford away next round. Definitely going, we whould get at least 4000 tickets

Their capacity is 25,000 although word of warning that the football ground guide says that "Away fans are housed on one side of the Midland Road Stand (towards the Bradford End Stand) at one side of the pitch. Around 1,300 supporters can normally be accommodated in this area, for larger followings then another block can be opened, raising the allocation to 1,800!

A lot of people though won't have had the chance to visit Bradford FC before so there will be more demand from gooners than it otherwise would be. Also, Bradford took 5,000 away to Wigan in the last round, so they won't be desperate to increase the away allocation for this one.

I needed to go up there around this time anyway as I need to visit one of my team who is based there - so I won't even need the day off and company can pay for the petrol !

[northbank123]

Think domestic cup rules means you have to offer 15% to away fans so should be getting somewhere around 3500.

[Top Londoner]

people may bash arshavin despite him pulling the strings in the 2nd half, but then have blind spots for their own. we all have the prettiest wife at home as a great man once said....

I haven't.

Not to worry mate. "though she does make a lovely breakfast" - Ian Wright.

Oh! I see..Big Soft Baps and Gash for Brekkies!

[SWLGooner]

We get a minimum allocation of 3770. Seeing as the Midland Rd Stand, half of which is usually away fans, holds 4,500 and Bradford don't have many fans we might get the whole stand.
