It was Manc supporter wrote it hence the last line of number 3

Manchester United, who had beaten Arsenal twice in the Premiership, were their opponents in the 2005 FA Cup final and for once Arsène Wenger seemed to lose his nerve. Dennis Bergkamp had been on brilliant form in their meeting at Highbury. Now, inexplicably, he was used as a solitary spearhead in a team that seemed to be playing for a penalty shoot-out from the start. Despite his sublime skills, Bergkamp no longer had the pace to perform such a role and was sadly wasted. Arsenal held out in extra time and when it came to penalties, Jens Lehmann, the Germany goalkeeper, saved resourcefully from Paul Scholes enabling Patrick Vieira to score the decisive spot kick. Hardly a famous victory.

GLANVILLE IS A SEASON TICKET HOLDER AT ARSENAL..(BECAUSE HIS SON IS A GOONER, I THINK)...BUT ALSO AT TOTTENHAM AS WELL!! :roll: :oops:

ALTHOUGH HE OFTEN PRETENDS THAT ARSENAL ARE HIS TEAM - ESPECIALLY DURING THE GOOD TIMES - ANY OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS OF HIS WRITING ABOUT ARSENAL WOULD LEAD ONE TO CONCLUDE THAT HE IS MORE A SPUD THAN A GOONER!! :oops: :lol: :wink:
