    How? That would be like me saying we are poised to go back 3rd or go through to the CL semi? On what basis can you make ridiculous statements like that?

    There was both points in there, but the 100% record Totsfan mentioned was the 67 FA Cup and the recent Carling Cup victories where we are 100%. But you're probably right, Robby doesn't understand commas <ok>

    Robby was aware of that. But what relevance does beating us nearly 45 years ago have in the FA Cup semi? Different squads and different players. Do you think Kalou or BAE will even know the scoreline of that game? The 2008 game was a game where we were managerless and in disarray in a competition we didn't really care about.

    It's quite possibly the biggest straw clutching thing I've seen, for what it's worth I think you will probably beat us as we'll undoubtedly have one eye on the CL (if we get there) and it may be a cut your nose to spite your face thing but totsfan is being ridiculous.

    I know, I didn't mean you mate <ok>

    Given you are all knowing, you will also spot my comment about how little difference it makes. As far as omens go, the fact that we were the better team at Stamford Bridge last month is much more hopeful to me than the fact that we beat you 45 years ago.

    Saying you were the better team is completely subjective. For what it's worth I think you were but more to the point you haven't beaten us in any of the last 4 games we've played you, despite taking the lead in 3 of them and your record against us over the past 2 decades has been rather dismal. That along with our Wembley record gives me plenty of confidence we can beat you.

    We've already beaten Everton at home and Villla away which have been our biggest bogey games for years so I'm sure we can end this "100% record against Chelsea at Wembley" bollocks once and for all :)

    We only need 6 to go 3rd :)

    We had one eye on Europe that day; probably the same for the semi.

    If any club should appreciate what a distraction CL is, it should be Spuds

    If the utter spastic isn't going to leave spaces between words he will have to take what comes. You're obviously used to his level of illiteracy, hence how you spotted it<doh>

    Except they arent though are they. If York City were 1-0 up vs barcelona with 20 minutes to go you wouldnt be thinking "Wow barca are the underdogs arent they". It is ludicrous.

    As for the top 4 run in....should be exciting. I dont really see how you can say you have momentuem. Beating villa and 10 man stoke at home is hardly amazing. Your other 2 prem games of the last 4 you lost to a slumping city and drew at home with a poor tottenham side.

    You could still get top 4 though obviously

    Of course Barca would still be favourites <doh>

    Points are all that matters. It's these kind of games that have cost Arsenal so dearly in the past.

    I won't CFC, but even AC is entitled to one mistake !!!!! Mind you that's it !!!!!!
    To be fair, he has been better, like nearly all our out of formers. Still on my list for a taxi at seasons end though.
