Cant we just give credit where its due? Well done Blues. I'm actually happy that it is fellow Brummies celebrating rather than another run of the mill victory for one of the big teams.

And lets not pretend their fans are anything other than normal Brummies. Some are ridiculous, some are thick as pig shit, some are vile. But the vast majority are just like us. I hope they enjoy it the way we would have done.
This.

At least they'll need to spend their summer transfer budget on a new cabinet from MFI.

I find them winning a trophy highly amusing. In an immensely patronising way.

Thing is its not just noses who will be giving it out. We're villa fans, we're targets for all now.

I agree. That is the classy thing to do. Though easy for me to say not living in Brum.

You have to have the opposite reaction to the one they are expecting us to have.

When we draw with or beat Chelsea and people express amazement and congratulate me, I always say how disappointed I am not to be beating a small club like them. Say it in a nonchalent sort of way and it really throws people who don't know what you are on about...what with them never having watched pre-Sky football...

Remember, what separates them from us is class. Give them the credit they are due, and teach them how to behave when their city rival wins a cup - with grace.

I'm happy to admit they deserved it, but not happy that they won it, I don't care if does break any big team monopoly.

The rubbing of our noses in it after the Enckleman game and their subsequent treating of that night like they'd won the European cup, made me detest them even more.

Although, it could all be down to Thatcher.

They deserved to win, because Arsenal are a complete joke.

The world has just spun on its axis.  Fair play to them, they won, easy for me to say sat up here in Mancland without the possibility of meeting any noses anytime soon.

Blues deserved it and I'm pleased for them.

Arsenal have treated our domestic cup competitions with contempt for years , but suddenly this season Wenger decided he wanted to win a consolation prize and I'm delighted that he failed.

Arsenal are a joke. Shambles. Embarrassment. Disgrace.

I think when I wake up tommorow, spend about 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer and deadlift about 300lbs I'm going to feel a bit better. It still feels like a dream that those neanderthals have won something, won't be too bothered by their fans.

Hopefully we can pull off the shock on Wednesday too.

Heard Citeh drew with Fulham at home. Not a good result for the,
