At least Arse Wenger's ears appear to work much better than his eyes do. That guy is such a scrawny faced tit.

FACEPALM just about sums up tonight, dear god.

I always pretend I hear Darth Vader's respirator noises whenever he's talking. Darth Wenger is always much more entertaining that way.

So Marlon King goes away, again. Shame none of the papers seem to have bothered to do the research to mention that.

Yes, our away form is that bad that all the results websites are already saying that we lost 1-0, lets hope we turn it around for the home leg next week and get a nice cup run going.*

I'm assuming so, but just in case - you do know we played last night, don't you?

It depresses me that Danny Wilson, our superb young centre-back, is a whole year and a bit younger than me.

I'm getting old and I've done nothing with my life. :oops:

Half the team that won promotion at Wembley are older than me :( it's depressing.

However, I won £132 due to the kids winning today, so I can't complain!

Last weekend Mitch Bryant played on loan to Woking against Swindon.

He played in my brother's team for a few years before pretty much the whole team got scouted by the time they were 10. Nice to see that one of them actually made it.

We're 3-0 down at half-time to Wales. WALES FFS. This is going to get really really embarrassing.

To be fair, they do have Aaron Ramsey. :wuv:

I feel sorry for the Irish, really I do and I wanted them to win, and of course you can never condone cheating but I'll be honest last night was hilarious, if only because of the complete over the top reaction of Ireland fans on football forums everywhere, and even from non-Ireland fans.

Although the funniest but was some Frenchies being gutted cause they wanted Domenech out.

Nobody likes R.Domenech in France. It's true.
In France, everybody wants him out but everybody wants France football team win. It's a big dilemma.

Yeah, it's a bit of a pisser for the Irish fans, but these things happen in football. I doubt you'll get a replay - I don't think Domenech would offer one like Wenger did in 2000, and it's unlikely Fifa would suggest it themselves. These federations favour the "bigger" sides over the smaller ones, it's why we didn't get a replay after that five flaming minutes of injury time in 1999 :pissed: :pissed: :pissed: :pissed: :pissed:

As a proud Irish-American and a football fan, I am upset and disappointed. Sure, what was Henry to do really? It's a game and you take every advantage, however dubious. You'd hope he would have done the honorable thing, claimed mea culpa after the goal, but, hey, "that's football." In the end it's a matter for the officials to sort out, which, for whatever reason, they did not. The FAI are duty-bound on behalf of the nation and the fans to ask for the replay, though they know they won't get it. Ideal compromise: just replay from the start of extra time. A fresh 30 minutes, the Republic up 0-1, as they were in normal time, and all still to play for.

Roy Keane's rant about Ireland today. HILARIOUS.
