1 nil down, two one up. Any more?

[????]

You got any original material Atila? Or is it all just out of your book of cliches? Ok here's one "Last at the Library first at the Emirates plc"...I know which I thinks got a better atmosphere out of OT and your Company Lego Land and it ain't the Emirates

[Bluerevolution]

We've made it a City pub over the last 6months and yes of course it's a serious invite

[mockney piers]

Took my 9 months preggers wife and her arsenal cousin there last night for his birthday.

Good game, Tom loved the stadium and he was impressed the view (upper tier west stand, yes that's the west stand not the Dr Martens stand, we'd never go in for all that tawdry sponsorship nonsense).

Behrami and kovac ran the show for an hour but were clearly exhausted and arsenal took advantage of the acres of space that opened up in midfield. It looked to me like arsenal played to their game plan and hats off tothem it was a good victory. Our bare bones squad didn't take all their earlier chances. It could have been 3-0 at half time with more experienced strikers on, but we didn't and it wasn't it.

Still, quality FA Cup fare.

Tottenham's name is on the cup this year. Kranjcar to score winner in final.

Touchy, very touchy. One nil and you fcuked it up. Where's your sense of humour gone, it must be there. It's a pre requisite of being an Irons fan, after all aren't you too good to go down?

Well it has to be on some trophy, after all it han't been on the league title trophy since 61.

[ratty]

Whoever wins it will have to beat Chelsea. Would not bet against them this year.

Only one team outside the "Big 4" have won since 1995. Cannot see it happening again for a while, althought Utd being out of it always makes it more fun.

If Tottenscum win however I would try as hard as I could to leave the country as I could not stand that saggy faced crook bigging himself up again.

C'mon You Leeds!

[david_carnell]

I laugh how Leeds, a team almost universally loathed, have become overnight heroes and much loved underdogs after dumping Man Utd out of the Cup.

And with Redknapp and Spurs up next may all the support from neutrals continue.

But how much more did I want Crystal Palace to be the London club we had to face in the next round. I somehow doubt we can pull off the miracle twice in a row.

[Bluerevolution]

Leeds got the neutral suport because of Fergies arrogance- on Thursday he said he would field a strong team against Leeds and his kids team against us on Wednesday, due to the LC being "unimportant". Doubt that will be the case now, if he loses to us the humiliation will be too great. We are the Noisy Neighbours !

[ruffers]

Fergie reaction when he lost his balloon - gawd knows what was going on in the dressing room...

Quality Lol ! Now shared with several thousand City fans on Bluemoon !

[Sandperson]

Hilarious.

[Jah Lush]

Dave Mackay, now he was hard. As for that dirty little squirt Bremner the less said the better.

Come on you Spurs!

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

You leave my darling Billy out of this, Jah.

[Keef]

Are Leeds really universally loathed? I always quite liked them until that twat O'Leary took charge. I basically feel about him, how I feel about Neil Warnock.

[jimmy two times]

O'Leary was a very over-rated manager. He has done nothing since Villa and it appears nobody is prepared to give him a job.

[david_carnell]

He's merely distracting Mackay until Norman Hunter kneels down behind him ready for Bremner to push and hilarity to ensue.

Those were the days, eh Jah? Can't really see Luca Modric squaring up to Johnny Howson (That's a Leeds player btw) in quite the same way.

[Bluerevolution]

Sorry Sandperson but this made me laugh !

You're too young to remember the Leeds side of the early 70s. Way before your time. They were the most hated team in the country at the time. Horrible feckers that they were. Jack Charlton with his little black book, Norman "Bites yer legs" Hunter, Billy Bremner, Johnny Giles (though he could play), the horrid "Sniffer" Clarke and managed by that cheating fecker Don Revie. Vile dirty bastards the lot of them.

If you ever get a chance try and watch the replayed FA Cup Final of 1970 between Chelsea and Leeds where they kicked lumps out of each other for 90 minutes. There was some cracking football inbetween the violence too.

[Atila Reincarnate]

Not for nothing were they known as dirty leeds.

[Bluerevolution]

and the fans made Millwall look the WI !

[Keef]

Yep, before I was born, although I have seen highlights from that final. Still, twas a long time ago, surely people don't feel that way towards todays Leeds. That would be like saying Arsenal play boring boring football, and Liverpool are world beaters.

[Jah Lush]

When you get to a certain age Keef, you don't forget.

[Sandperson]

You don't remember much either, but you don't forget.
