Simon, you'll never forgive us will you ;-p

[????]

Is Simon the Blades fan?

[mockney piers]

Uh huh. He's a decent chap, just likes to predict a defeat for the hammers more than most.

i watched it down the boozer and thank god for the smoking ban, it meant i was able to nip outside on a regular basis, thus avoiding watching the game.

I have a mate who lives in Oz whose a big Blades fan and the whole Tevez thing has genuienly slightly put an edge on our friendship........time will heal......Sheffield United will be in Divsion 1 by then though >:D

Yeah but no but....Sunderland won at Villa last week, are stronger at home and fighting relegation. The Hammers are safe! :))

Blades are looking for their 5th win in a row tomorrow...

[Keef]

Only half time, but Arsenal have their work cut out. What the hell has happened to them?!? At this rate we might be catching you for 3rd by the end of the season...

Assuming of course we beat Everton tomorrow...

[Keef]

Well they've got back level, so could get the winner now...

[Keef]

Fair play, good comeback to the Arse. Feel sorry for Bolton though.

Interested to see the tacle that led to the sending off, from what the BBC say it was a naughty one.

[SimonM]

What an amazing. character-ful performance by Arsenal. Looks like reports of their season being over may have been somewhat premature eh? :))

Keef

Cheers for the commentary - I was a long way from a telly and if I can visit just ONE website.. this is it and I had some updates

wow - that was a game. why haven't we seen more of that character. Too little too late I fear but good to see none the less

Wenger called it on the tackle - a deserved red card (from an all to predictable source)

I no longer believe Arsenal have "a discipline problem" - but that was warranted and responsibility was accepted. More please

[mockney piers]

please don't rub it in Simon

Good result for us yesterday, have to say I found the second half rather dull, but I'm sure Anna will disagree, but she did et to soak up the derby atmosphere.

Bit of a shocker for Spurs yesterday, and the highlights show some very dodgy defending. However, hats of to Newcastle, they loked like a different team, and nice to see Owen is still a classy finisher when he gets his chances

[SeanMacGabhann]

in light of the fact that my brother is the most committed Liverpool fan I know (and there is strong competition on here but really - you have to see this guy in action!) and the fact that he runs a pub, I was thinking of combining a visit to his pub on Wednesday evening to watch the Liverpool v Arsenal game

It's in Charlton - anyone else up for it? (Annsfield I know you won't be making it out from behind the sofa but maybe safety in numbers?)

non-involved forumites welcome - you don't have to enjoy football to enjoy watching my brother watching it!

[Sandperson]

What a wonderful weekend. The winker strikes again AND Rooney gets a couple!. Delightful.

You come from the Midlands so you should have been supporting Villa.

Sean

I will be at the Emirates on Weds but would be happy to visit pub next week for the away fixture?

[Keef]

Yep have to say fair play to Man U, I thought Villa would b a tougher task than many, but they were brushed aside with worrying ease.

Sean not sure what my plan for Wednesday is yet, but cold be up for that as a change... Think the CPT will be more Arsenal, was considering the Railway here in Sydenham, as it is quite a Liverpool boozer...

I keep hearing people saying they think Liverpool will do the job, and I can't stand it. I'm rather nervous, they could be really exciting games if both teams play their best stuff... Just hope Torres keeps up his form for us

[SeanMacGabhann]

agreed Keef - until both games are over both sets of fans are going to be far too emotinally involved to do anything remotely like ENJOY the games - lets hope no-one gets sent off and the best team wins anyway...

[atila the gooner]

Have just got another ticket for the game, so my son and I will be at the Arse on Wednesday, well pleased. COME ON YOU GOONERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
