    So, we go back to Newcastle tonight, lick our wounds and try to get it right the second time around. Not holding my breath.

    This game is at 2:45 pm EST, and can be seen live on FSC. Our respective side shouldn't be much different from today's game in terms of availability with the exception of Rosicky perhaps, as he went off injured early for Arsenal. Too bad it wasn't Eduardo, Adebayor, Fabregas, and pretty much all of Arsenal's regulars. Then we might have a shot.

    Prediction: Pain.

    What kills us is we came into this one with a sense of belief, played well for 45 minutes and actually looked like having a go. Had we carried that into the second half we would have been alright, but so it goes. Now we come into this one void of any belief, and its a difficult match even with it. I'd say it ends 3-0 Arsenal again.

    Barton is available ... Viduka is not.

    A new day, a fresh look. With the Wise singing I don't see how we don't win this one. 3-0 to the toon, Owen hat trick.

    We had three chances to score at the weekend so I think we might put one away today. Unfortunately, I think that will kick l'arse into top gear and they will win 4-1. Bring on August!

    We put up a good half on Saturday before falling apart, that's something. I think it gives Keegan something to build on ("Pass better than Arsenal and play more like you did in the first half") and that could be enough for us to get a result. The Arse was fueled up for Saturday after falling out of the Carling Cup, but that monkey is now off their shoulder so I see us doing okay. We'll at least get a draw here, with a chance to pull out three in extra time.

    Good to see us sticking with the status quo. This next hour and a half should be fun.

    Adebayor is starting to piss me off, and I really like him. We need to stop playing Arsenal before they become the 4th/4 Big clubs I hate :D

    Mike Riley certainly is a crap referee.

    These FSC announcers have to be wearing Arsenal jerseys in the booth. Ridiculous.

    Judging from the scoreline, looks like it'll be a repeat of this weekend.

    Worst feeds ever. They are all just atrocious. Freezing every minute, at least, or freezing every two minutes and not in English.

    Shocking turn of events as Adebayor scores.

    To be fair to the defense it was an amazing cross by Flamini. Dropped it just over the head of Taylor onto the charging Adebayor.

    And here comes the onslaught.

    Flamini, and he skipped over a defender's tackle like he was a standing traffic cone.

    "Who are ya? Who are ya?" Yeah. Exactly. As I said, Arsenal will be up by half.
