I wouldn't get too carried away as an Arsenal fan about the result. It was fun, and it's better than losing it, and it keeps the optimism at the club going


But it is what it is - a meaningless tie, made worse these days by major teams spending summer on far flung tours and not being "ready"


I take PD's point about if we lost we woulld have been criticised after money spent, but we could brush that criticism off easily. The real games start next week


Now, having said all that - the fixture still gives me a tingle every year. It's like the lights going down and hearing the intro tape at the start of a gig - "here we go...."

Absolutely. Chambers looked really good yesterday, not overawed at all. And nobody is getting carried away, but I'd rather win any game than lose it. Yes?

Honest? Hmmm. He said it wasn't all about money, so if he hadn't been offered more by City would he have gone anyway? I some how doubt it. The only player in recent years that actually left for less money was Cesc.

He made his mistakes of course, but who hasn't. Even with that "problem" he deserved to beat Argentina and get to a world cup QF in my opinion, with 10 men and a good record preceeding that.


Jeez - If I were English I have had him back in a flash ahead of Steve McLaren or Hodgson



Edited to say - his comments about disability being punishments deserved to get him the sack and if he still believes this sh1t then I'd guess he'd fail any interview.

Am I reading too much into this or do Legia sound quietly confident.


"Legia Warsaw would like to thank the UEFA disciplinary bodies for the prompt organisation of the appeal procedure.


"At the same time, we would like to inform you that until the official decision of the UEFA appeal body is announced the club will not issue any further communication."

REPORTS in the Polish Press say Legia Warsaw have lost their appeal over their Champions League KO to Celtic.


A leading Polish newspaper today reported that the Poles? appeal had been thrown out meaning Celtic WILL face Maribor in next week?s Champions League play-off round first leg.

What heinous crime did Legia commit to get bounced, and did it contribute to the battering they dished out to Celtic?

    • I have had disappointing deliveries from matoom too, it seems better when I've eaten in. Also they do their own deliveries if you order from their website.
    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
    • Hello, I’ve got a 1980’s  one if you’re interested it works fine a bit old school 
    • Another recommendation for Greg.  He provided excellent service - fast response, quote and then fitting the job in.  The inbuilt wardrobes he made are of a very high quality and he was a pleasure to work with.  Helped us with some additional shelving and a broken floorboard too.  Highly recommend!
