The way in which they won it sums them up really.

But, they succeeded where we failed last season (even if they needed a big piece of luck to do it).
But they should have had a penalty and potentially been a player up after 90 seconds but the linesman got the decision wrong.

They rode their luck a bit, but were by no means outclassed and despite their injury problems before and during the match, I think they deserved it.

They've had a hell of a lot of luck along the way in terms of the draws, the goals etc, but they've won something so fair play to them I guess.

No doubt this means the balance of power has shifted blah blah blah.

Blues were the better side...

Were they fuck.

They battled well and made it hard for Arsenal but no way were they better and they just got a huge fluke to win it.

Typical fucking Arsenal to fuck up like that at the end.

I think they're a bunch of inbred slime, but all we'll hear now is
'When was the last time you won a trophy?'

I know that's all we ever hear now.  The sad thing is we ain't likely to win one anytime soon.  You just know when we play Man City we'll just hand it to them on a plate.

Sorry Chris, but I think they were the better side overall, kept their shape well and stuck to a game plan.
Arsenal had too many show ponies trying to give it the big one and walk it into the net.
Nasri was a greedy bastard too.
Arshavin poor and Wilshire faded.

There's no doubt, they are utterly unbearable, classless scumbags, but this might just prompt us into bucking our ideas up. Frankly, our performance as a football club for the last ten or fifteen years has been pathetic. If it takes a bunch of dimwitted knuckledraggers to galvanise us, then so be it.

Quite simply, the LUCKIEST cup run in history. Not that fussed about them winning it, as it will simply burden them badly next season with trying to play in Europe etc and having a VERY ageing squad. Also wonder how it will affect their league form now they think they are the billy big bollocks, only 2 points off the relegation scrap. Games in hand has, but they have to be won.

I will give Mcleish some credit, he has created a system that is very effective and got them to play to it. Its ugly unadventurous and with hard work and luck can achieve results,
Arsenal are finding out like we have that no team deserves success you have to go out and get it.

This is one of the reasons I hate those wankers so much. At the slightest opportunity they rewrite history and all we'll hear now is about them biggest the biggest and bestest.

They finally have some success and you can best with most of them that we are their first thought. When we've had success they are the last thing on my mind.
