Arsenal v Chelsea

[Irelandboy]

It'll head for a replay. 1-1.

[Coach_McGuirk]

Gunners, 2-1, but it will be a comforatble 2-1.

BTW, is this on FSW on Saturday?

[Coach_McGuirk]

Just answered my own question. Setanta. Any Dallas area Gunners going to the Dubliner to catch it?

[fox point fury]

3-0, all from either Ray Parlour or Kanu, whichever actually gets in the game.

[MNGooner]

Ray Parlour might be due (I do love it when goes for the long ball), but the word on the street is the Frannie and Sylvain will get the nod to start up front. I think Frannie has come into favor over Kanu with LeBoss.

[Suckafree]

- Jeffers has been playing qutie well of late. I would bet on him to put another in the net tomorrow.

- 2-0 to the Gunners, with Wiltord getting the second.

[TheSlipperyOne]

2-1 Gunners with Frannie and Paddy scoring.

This really pisses me off - I've been a big Dish supporter in the past, but them not carrying this match is a huge strike against them, as far as I'm concerned.

The Telegraph is saying that Wenger has decided to rest Bergkamp for this weeks game against Roma. Luzhny and Cole are certainly out.

Desailly, Le Saux, and former Gunner Petit are back with the Chelsea squad but I'd doubt any of them will get a full 90 in as they're not fit.

Here's some stuff to read if you're bored like I am right now...

Ljungberg, Jeffers

2-1 to the Gunners, Pires and Jeffers with the goals. I think I'm going to see that game in Chicago at Ginger's--it's actually at a reasonable hour -11.15 (which means that a beer or two is not out of the question!).

Hope it's an exciting match!

Phishy, I too enjoy the breakfast of champions when getting up at the crack of dawn for those noon kickoffs. Nothing quite like a pint of the black stuff to wash down a tasty egg, cheese and bacon sandwich.

It's an 11:15 AM Kickoff, Dallas time, so I suppose that a few pints of Guinness wouldn't be out of the question.

The Dubliner is at 2818 Greenville Avenue in Dallas (On Lower Greenville).

If anyone is going, let me know and I'll make sure to be there.

Oddly enough, I just scheduled a DISH install today for next week. I'm not waiting around for Comcast to take FSW away.

[phishy]

hey coach, do you for certain that the dubliner is going to be open? i guess that kick-off is pub friendly being at 11:15 am...... my flat is about 10 min from lower greenville.. ill be there~

I've got a good feeling about this one, we're on a roll and Chelsea are going through a sticky patch, not the best preparation for a visit to Highbury. I hope to see a 2-0 victory, I reckon Jeffers might be a good bet for one, but isn't it about time Gilbert got back in on the act? After his couple of early season goals he must be due.

[phishy]

IMHO, Gilberto doesnt have that scoring touch.. it seems that he can get into fantastic position.. but lacks that final touch to TAKE his chances... im looking for a big game from pires~~
cheers

Since i was last at the library.
We used to sing this little number with Hickey-ask somebody from back home, they'll tell yeh who he was ;)-crack was great in those days, standing, yelling,drinking..etc etc etc..

Anyways,...this is for you lot.
When I was a youngster my dad said to me
If you want to be hard son then follow Chelsea
They're the hardest in London and in the whole land
And they go by the name of the Chelsea North Stand
Molineux Highbury
This year we're going to Wembley

A few years ago now we went down to the dell
And those Southampton bastads did they run like hell
But we are the North Stand and we like to ruck
And we caught those saints bastards and kicked them to ********
Molineux Highbury
This year we're going to Wembley

And when I was 14 I first went away
And I stood at the back and was told I must stay
But I had to wander and I went down the front
And me and my mate ********ed up some big northern ********
Molineux Highbury
This year we're going to Wembley

Ahhhh, the memories.
Course i've mellowed out since those turbulent days.

Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea
