Stoke City RFC vs. Arsenal FC. Stadium: Britannia Stadium TV: USA: FOX Soccer (8:30 in the morning Eastern Time) The world: Thats not my job. So after the okay Game Week 1 Arsenal go from footballers to footballers, but of the rugby kind. Lets go!!!
KILL!!!! BTW, is Arsenal lose, you are banned form making a match day thread for three months for breaking tradition.
There you go, back on the first page.... That's part of the tradition, you know. All the more important since we've lost Catfish's 2-1 predictions.... Just win, Baby!
Unless the previous match day thread starter has a losing game, then he or she gets another shot with a match thread.
Okay, so if we do win or draw I will let the Sunderland thread creator make the next thread. Sorry about that, to lazy to learn.
2-1 Arsenal. Early goal from Stoke on a set piece. Arsenal equalize just before half-time and get the winning goal just after the hour mark. Stoke threatens repeatedly for the remaining half hour and we all have to sweat it out.
If we play Bendtner we should win 8-0 easily with the great dane scoring 2 hat-tricks and 2 goals from Fabianski. Of course our manager will not be smart enough to do that so instead we will have that flop Podolski score 2 goals with the other mega flop Cazorla scoring 1 so we win 3-0. Remember that Stoke City RFC will be without Dean Whitehead so our midfield will only see 2 injuries instead of 3.
Point of order - this is hogwash. Only losses stop a thread creator. We are setting ourselves up for disaster.
Diaby proves he's back and he's for real with 3 goals in the first 20 minutes. Signs for Barcelona at halftime.
