Oh yes, that was a top thread, one of the best ever on here, thanks for filling in the gaps in my failing memory!

It was quite amusing to see his faux moral outrage go to silent when he realised people had found out his work email address.

Arsenal are weak in midfield - no real dominant enforcer type. We should be able to bully and out muscle them.

It remains to be seen if we have that sort of player either to be fair.  Arsenal are very strong in midfield and like us tend to relax more away from home, so getting to grips with them in that area could be a big step in us getting something.

We sung a song about a serious injury to one of their players in a previous game. I thought it was in poor taste.

However, the outrage of Fabregas the King was so hilarious that he made me want to sing it every week! 

He actually thought we should have points deducted for it!

The best bit was when he posted a photo of himself being "outraged" and it was suggested he could be reported to the relevant authorities as a known hooligan - poor taste chant but get a grip

Was that the same one who had his own blog?  I'm sure he was a doctor too.  I had great fun on his blog.

Visiting the other half's folks this weekend, they live between Wolvo and Brum. Want to go to the game but it seems only Dudley zoo is on offer.

Seeing as how we seem to have stepped into a parallel universe, players, manager, CEO getting signed up and 2nd in the league, can we please have theme from an unmade silent movie to trot out to on Saturday?

I think we might nick it 1-0, the Arse have most of their full backs out injured.

Looks like Baker will be starting, can he pull off two good performances in a row? I'm not confident about this game at all.

An entertaining 1-1. I'd be as happy as Larry with that.

Chance to see Wolves play then.

  Anything from this game will make me smile.  Anything to see the MOTD team sat trying to think of nice things to say about the Villa, when inside they are worrying that they all tipped us for relegation,

Bollocks to taking a draw. I want a win and top spot on Saturday night. And if Chelsea get turned over by Man Citeh we would go there as league leaders.

Hutton is a shape-shifting mutant?
