To be perfectly honest, I´d say
This G-Day we may get blown away,
But, what the heck
It´s not going to wreck
Our season, nor the way we play

But, interestingly enough
For Gunners, it might, if they´re stuffed,
And just what that shows
I´m not sure, but goes
Some way to helping, if it´s tough

For them, a defeat´s not to bear
While for us, it´s nothing to fear,
Not many expect
That we will collect
Three points, and a celebratory beer

And though we´re closer to the top
Right now, it´s those down near the drop,
Who we need to beat
If we are to meet
Our target, and avoid the chop

So far at home, we haven´t seen
Any of the really top teams,
So it´s hard to know
Just what sort of show
Our lads will put on, if they´re keen

We´d like to think that we will match
Those big wage earners on our patch,
And that´s the beauty
Of this game, you see
And what keeps us wanting to watch

For no-one´s yet worked out a way
To prophesy just how the play,
Will go, or who´ll win
Before it begins
On any one given match day

So although the Gunners may feel
That this one´s almost a done deal,
They should know by now
Whether low or highbrow
That no game is ever a steal. OTBC
 
Hi RBF! A mouthwatering prospect for those lucky enough to be able to attend!

This is NOT going to be 0 - 0, with Arsenals defensive record on the road, and our continuing failure to keep a clean sheet, it will come down to which of us can out-score the other! On our day, with Lady Luck granting us her favours, who knows? This could be our day!

<cheers>

Wouldn´t that be great Mr. boots, I´d certainly enjoy writing an ode to celebrate the occasion with the Arsenal fans. ;)
 
For some strange reason there seems to be more trepidation for this game than for Chelsea,Man U and Liverpool which were all away matches.Let's just hope PL gets Pizza on his face,not egg.

Think that´s perfectly understandable Cruyff, to lose 3 or 4-0 away at any of those you mention, is no disgrace, but to lose by the same at home, ( which, let´s face it, could happen) looks and feels a lot worse. Still going for 2-2 myself. :laugh:
 
Excellent stuff RBF!

I'm not as pessimistic about this as some. Last time we played them a t home, we lost 4-1, but that was an Arsenal team in the midst of a 49 game unbeaten PL run, and with the likes of Henry and Bergkamp playing.

They still have good players, of course, but I'm hoping for a better result this time out. <ok>
 
I remember that game too gandy, but I´d say we´re stronger now, and maybe Arsenal are slightly weaker, Henry and Bergkamp were a bit special, should even things out a bit, I´d say. :)
