Arsenal v Barca

[Uncle Buck]

Must have been, because as we all know, Arsenal players never make bad tackles.

I did not see any....

 

[patchamalbion]

stupid thing is Arsenal could well have gone in 1-0 up! they've hung on well

 

[Smithy]

Steve Rider is such a boring presenter.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

And now we get Andy bloody Townsend and Steve "human wallpaper" Rider.

It just keeps getting better doesn't it?

Ah, that unique Premier League attitude to football: booing your team off after "only" being goalless at halftime against Barcelona

Mind you, they have been shit. But Wenger will have a ready excuse.

Just spotted another classic bit of ITV commentary insight, as the ever-wise Beglin speculates that the Emirates pitch will suit Barcelona "because it's just like the Nou Camp".

As in, rectangular, with grass on then, Jim?

They were booing the ref off

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Arsenal are shit.

Fabregas missing the 2nd leg

Why isn't Campbell playing? Surely he isn't unfit already? I mean, they're not due to play at The Lane for another 2 weeks yet.

 

[Colossal Squid]

I've turned the sound off and stuck the latest Football Ramble on instead.

It's quite reassuring to know that I don't appear to be in a minority in my dislike of ITV football coverage. Question is, if everyone thinks the same then WHY ON EARTH don't they do something about it?

 

[Robdinho]

Goal

 

[Uncle Buck]

Blimey, the Swedish Barney just scored.

 

[Smithy]

Thats the tie over then.

 

[Dandyman]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL !

Wait for Whinger to call Barca a long ball team.

 

[jordanseagull]

Just after Lehman says that.

 

[Blackadder]

Do you know I have never seen Ibrahimovic have a good game! Totally overated imho

Shows what I know about football

 

[Uncle Buck]

Somebody please pull the plug on the ITV commentary...

Just after Lehman says that.

Almunia was way out of position there. Reckon Lehmann has a voodoo doll in his pocket?

YOUR SEASONS OVER (AND YOU'VE WON f*** ALL!)

Good stuff! Need one more to take it back to Camp Nou at 2-0 so it can be a real footballing show out there. I have tickets for the game, cant wait!

 

[Captain Haddock]

Everything ITV do is shit..... They are even undermining the spectacle on show at The Emirates.

If I could magic three things away it would be ManUre fans, ITV and Mike Parry!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Is Henry on the bench for Barcelona or is he injured?

I dread to THINK how sycophantic Tyldesley etc would be if he came on.
