Do arsenal run football specials

I am thinking of going to old trafford for the cup game and was wondering if the football special would stop at the man utd station right next to the ground.

Anybody know anything about the football specials?
Anyone been on them?

Get pissed, go into your kitchen, break some glass and spread it along the floor, take a leak in the corner, smash a chair, and stay in there for next 2 hours, while sitting on a blender.

It'll be something like that...

I do,we only got it once for an away game carlisle away I think ,bit silly having a disco on a train doing 100 mph.
Also it was expensive compared to the normal or the specials but the specials were simply retired rolling stock that hadn't seen the light of day for years ,full of dust ,toilets and heating didn't work and stewarded by idiots.
