[Leyton388]

Beating these cunts to the title this season and the way we have done it should lay the ghosts of the game in 89 to rest.

I don't think I'll ever get over that game even if we win ten titles in a row!

 

Mind you, old Arsenal back then. I used to respect them a lot.

Not told my wife yet,  but just bet the mortgage on Arsenal! Fingers crossed!

Where was Reya for the second? 

 

Sure, get the keeper involved in playing out from the back. But leaving the net wide open seems a little foolish.

Is Arteta still alive? Over his dead body and all of that.

Yes. A draw tonight would be great. 

Not a bad prediction, eh?

The only thing better would've been beating them to win it in a few weeks. Still, first world problems.

The guard of honour will more than suffice.

Aye it’s still rough. Also not getting the double because of those yard dogs.

3:30am Aotearoa. Oh to be in Aussie

[A Red]

I was at a function last night and kept an eye on the score on the BBC website. The screen shows how many are watching at any one time, usually theres anywhere between 5 and 15k for the premier league. Last night from the 80th minute it must have averaged 220k.

I would prefer that get a few hours in the sack and the game will finish around 5.20 ish. Adrenaline will stop me sleeping when the game finished around 3.30 here.

Aye, I was at the Arsenal game, the final, and this game, too.

 

It was virtually from the kick off, Macca just absolutely cut him in two.

 

It was a horrible tackle and Jones was down for a while.  He was hobbling around for ages, and the Kop was giving him real grief about him being a "hard man".

 

He left the pitch but came back on after a while.

 

I learned a few years later that he had something like 12 stitches in his shin.  To be fair, we were all laughing at him for hobbling around and being a fake hard man.  I don't think there's many players who would come back onto the field with stitches in their shin. 

[A_S]

I've loved the way both Vardy and Leicester have handled the announcement of him leaving. 

 

One of the great football stories. 

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

This is a bit mad. On the club's actual media channel too. Surely this makes it very difficult to impossible for him to now referee this game?

[El Rojo]

Real Madrid are absolutely horrible.

[Jairzinho]

Forgot the final was in Seville tomorrow. Assumed it was in Saudi Arabia or something.

 

Might go and egg their team bus.
