    Faded badly in the second half though. However, for a 20 year old, he looks a bit good.

    Interesting that Sterling was standing in a very similar position to Bertrand for Man City's last goal and wasn't flagged offside .....

    Just saying .......

    Yes - just as I was typing that, they announced it! :emoticon-0111-blush
    Typical!
    He's going to go on to greater things. Just hope he's not bought by a "big" club who stick him on the bench or send him out on loan and hardly ever play him. Could easily happen, sadly.

    Yes, fair play to Danny Murphy not doing the usual thing and giving it to someone on the winning side. A great performance from Billing before he tired.

    You would think that Aguero would have learnt to speak English by now, surely?

    He looked so classy. I was very impressed. Strange, I spotted it within seconds of seeing him on the ball first time.

    Lincoln fans taking over Covent Garden earlier. There will be way more than 10,000 Imps at the Emirates today. Loads have got tickets in the home sections!!! Good job it isn't a London derby match eh :)

    I'm at Essex Road now so not far left to go.

    This is a bit like you guys in Milan :)

    media not working so will sort out later when I get a minute. facebook video not mine. Sorry I can;t work this smartphone out. Missus insisted I took it instead of my old Nokia ring and text.

    I'm in Finsbury Park on my way in to work. Just saw a red n white striped shirt, & checked the crest as I always do when I see those colours. 'Mon the Imps.


    Have a great day mate. Miracles do happen <ok>

    Half the Imps might be late. Looks to me like they've started early in London and are walking en masse up to the Emirates. lol.

    Miracles have happened. There's a slight chance we'll lose ;) but The Arsenal fans will think Galatasary have come to town with 90 minutes of solid noise through the game.

    10 German Bombers...........And the RAF from Lincoln shot one down, and the RAF from Lincoln shot one down, and the RAF from Lincoln, RAF from Lincoln, RAF from Lincoln shot one down.

    And to the tune of yellow Submarine:
    At No is Bradley Wood
    At No is Bradley Wood
    At No is Bradley Wood
    At No is Bradley Wood
    We all dream of a team of Bradley Woods, a team of Bradley Woods, a team of Bradley Woods.

    Repeat 5-8.
    Then 9-11 and on the bench is Bradley Wood.

    We all dream of a team of Bradley Woods, a team of Bradley Woods, a team of Bradley Woods.

    Great stuff.

    No idea where my Portuguese Brother in law is. He got free tickets because he's the Futsal manager.

    So Arsenal decided to turn up. :( 5-0

    Excellent effort by Lincoln but after Arsenal scored at the end of the first half they had an easier second half.

    The Imps can now concentrate on promotion after a fantastic cup run. Hope they make it. :)

    Got quite surprised at Radio 5 today making such a big thing of Arsenal soundly beating Lincoln City. They should soundly beat Lincoln. Beat an equal PL team 5-0 and you can make a big deal. But non-league, and on home turf.? Come on.

    Heading back to Wembley rather quicker than a Saints fan would have anticipated... :)

    ...not quite the same, though.
