    What's he saying! I played it back, that's what he says. They played this today after we won, :D.

    I thought it was again. not game, :D.

    I used to also think the 'same old' chant was "shame on". "shame on Chelsea, always cheating"

    Whilst we sing this song we'll win the game.

    Watch the history of the arsenal, when you sober up. But take your time and carpe diem.

    There was a competition in the Sunday Express (ithink) to find an Arsenal specific
    song for the 1971 cup final.As I recall Jimmy Hill either wrote the song or judged the competition

    Thrilled with the result. So happy.

    On another note though...what did you guys make of our 4-4-2? do you think thats why we pulled it back? we seemed to have a bit more going forward with both sanogo and giroud on...though Id think wed be even better if we replaced sanogo with someone of world class.

    I think we should try 4-4-2 a bit more...

    I think it works when we face a back 3, or another 4 man midfield.

    Wish I could write like that after 20 hours of drinking at 6 in the morning ;)
    Absolutely brilliant, good effort by Hull but their legs were completely gone by extra time, all the best to Fabianski to, his reaction to getting the cup was heart-warming.
    Can't wash my top for a few months now, bloody typical that it got absolutely drenched in beer :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Managed to catch the match live on DSTV (Supersport) here. However the power went just as they were about to start with the trophy presentation so I spent the night in the dark. Didn't stop me enjoying the evening though!

    I can imagine the load on the power station, with everyone watching the FA Cup Final! Lucky you managed to watch the whole match!
