Am I the only one who is becoming a wreak with the big one coming up? I am so antsy right now, I can't stand it. I want the game to be played now, yet I fear it being here so soon.
How is everyone coping?

I'm not worried about the Everton game at all, or were you talking about the Birmingham game? ;)

I said the big one, not the fillers in between. ;)

He's talking about the Community Shield. ;)

It's definitely on the radar screen for me, but still too far off for me to get all nervous about it. Probably that Thursday I'll start thinking a lot about it, not eating as much as I usually do, drinking a bit more than usual...just the usual things my body does to cope with anxiety.

I'm actually feeling pretty confident that we'll beat ManU in the Cup final. We've finally got our defence sorted out, and with the exceptions of Henry and Freddie, everybody is healthy, and the team is playing well. On the other hand ManU is fading badly. They will still be dangerous, but i cannot conceive of losing to them 3 times this season, i really just can't see it happening.

Oh my god you just jinxed us! BASTARD!!!!
Seriously, I'm nervous just thinking about it. I've been spoiled in the 3.5 years I've followed Arsenal. There wasn't one trophyless season. Plus the fact that we're playing the team that I've grown to just completely detest makes it all the more nerve wracking thinking about what it'd feel like if the Gunners do lose. Of course naturally I'm just a pessimistic sports fan to begin with, so this doesn't really help matters much. And even though the Premiership was passed on to Chelsea and there was another dissapointing Champions League exit, it'll all be wortwhile and this could become my favorite Arsenal season yet if they beat the Mancs in Cardiff. Oh how sweet it is.
Of course I work on Saturdays so I'm in a bit of a pickle. And no, I don't have any personal days to use.

We will either win or lose, unless its a draw.

All I'm thinking about the FA Cup Final is that if ManU hurt any of our players they'll have the whole summer to recover!

Surely you're not discounting the possibility of cancellation due to Alien Invasion ?

Im a little nervous. When it comes to a couple of days before Im so nervous I have no nails left and still keep chewing up to my kuckles. I always get nervous when we play Man Who. But recently our form has made this feeling a bit better. I think we can beat them.
Still waiting for Freddie and Henry though.

Hadn't even thought of that. Wonder what price the bookies would give me!

Has anyone in the uk tried to book rail tickets for this? it's a ********ing nightmare, they still haven't released timetables, so there's going to be a mad rush.
And of course you have to add the fact that most off the opposition support will be travelling from down south .

I thought the opposition support would be coming from Singapore and Boston and Tokyo and Toronto and Tobago and Timbuktoo
