Could have been better, could have been worse. Still, it matters not because it is quite certainly our year.

Arsenal first 11 at thier place would tear us to shreds, if through injury and  resting players and we pick the right team we have a chance

Why would they? They haven't on any other visit there (apart from Fabregas) or at VP a few weeks ago, with what was close to their best 11.

I hope the game is not mvoed for TV but alas I think it is guaranteed to be. If it is then I hope it is on the Saturday not teh SUnday as I couldn't go if it is.

I'd love to take 9K there!! I also think we can win!

It is our year for the cup!!

If you consider we'll be nearing CL and Wenger will be wanting to push for 4th, I think he might be putting out a weakened side which gives us a greater chance. As long as McLeish doesn't do a Houllier

They've got to get past Leeds first though.

I'm guessing we'll have an idea when we see what side they put out against Leeds.

Time for Randy to wheel out the free coaches.
If it's Leeds we'll need Hummers with water cannons. Let's hope it's Arsenal and we can all have a good day out and hopefully keep my 40-1 voucher valid in the process.

With Man City out and either Man U or Liverpool leaving in round 4 and assuming we can knock Arsenal out, this is opening up nicely for a Villa triumph.

We've picked up 8 points from 15 at the Emirates since it opened. That's more than decent.

if Hutton takes out Van Persie first minute , they are not going to score .

Lets hope VP picks up a knock before the game .

I just saw on tv that the only clubs he has scored more against than us are Charlton and Middlesbrough.
