Absolutely buzzing for it. Genuinely feel we have a decent chance of at least a point.
A little contradictory there Mello, don't you think?

To me that reads like 'Absolutely buzzing for it. Genuinely feel we have a decent chance of watching Homes Under The Hammer'.

Worryingly for me, because these things never work out well, I'm Absolutely buzzing for it. Genuinely feel we have a decent chance of handing out a proper old fashioned shoeing.

I fear we will get a rebound tonking.
A week's cara de ponque if we draw. A month's worth if we turn them over.

If we are to play the Arsenal, now would certainly seem a good time to do so. They have not played well and seem to miss Sanchez. But...
There is no doubting their quality. World class players are still world class.
They are looking to bounce back and will see this as an ideal opportunity.
So far this season we have not beaten a top 6 club.
As fans, we travel in hope rather than expectation. Wouldn't it be great though?!!

Very excited for the game, but also wary of a backlash from the gooner boys. Chance of moving up to 10th and 7 points clear of 18th though - huge motivation to get our first points v the big boys!!

I think we might win. I just don’t want to say it out loud.

If you didn't catch Mers's rant on talkshite last week it's worth a listen. My latest crush is on Lampard though who, after the Swansea rout, said " all neutrals should be supporting Brighton, we're all Brighton fans. Especially with what they've been through over the years and the magnificent job that Hughton is doing"

Lovely that. Just lovely.

P.S.

The Arsenal "only fools and horse" song lyrics....

Stick Swiss Toni in my pocket

I’ll fetch Squillaci from the van.

'Cos if you want defenders

Then you don’t ask Wenger,

George Graham... he's your man.

Where they all come from is a mystery

It’s like replacing Ashley Cole with Gael Clichy

But here's the one that's driving me berserk

How is Arsene Wenger still in work..

Na na na na na etc.

In fairness, he is usually dreadful, but looking back at his last 2-3 weeks predictions across the league he hasn't been as bad and has a fair few correct scores!
