Rushed to put some money on Arsenal, was worried I wouldn't get them in on time. Managed to submit it just before KO. Had a few Arsenal first goal scorers. Stoke score after 70 seconds. Gutted. Still got Arsenal, 2-1, 3-1, 4-1, so fingers crossed.

Theo's got A LOT of work to do these next few months if he wants to be on the plane to South Africa. He's woeful.

Stoke are a nasty mob. Every challenge a boot is left in. It is clear what they are trying to do. If I was ref they be down to about 8 men by now.

Oh do shut up.

Watch a game of rugby, you wouldn't be complaining about f***ing boots up there! And these bloody guys have shinpads! Nice to see Arsenal getting beaten around, really really good, what football is about.

Yea right. We would all love to see Albion be like that. You can play hard and play fair. That is what sport is all about.

Oh dear, oh dear... Still no more trophies for Arsene's Arsenal then?

(No, I don't think they'll win the league)

They have played fair?!

Leaving your boot in. Treading on a prone opponent and making it look like you could have avoided it is not playing fair.

Arsenal are not as good as they think they are and have a crap keeper - and look lightweight - but they have been well and truly roughed up. Sometimes legally - that is fine. Many times illegally. And it worked.

I wonder if Sol Campbell will quit later today as this "wasn't what he signed up for" :laugh:

Good for them. Better than diving all over the place, screaming like you've been shot when you're fine etc like Arsenal do. Great honesty by Fuller in the 1st half with what was a penalty, Fabregas et al would would gone over like a sack of spuds.

Up the City.

Roughed up maybe fouled hardly at all.

What a load of Tosh - The Arse goal and most of their chances came from free kicks that should never have been given.

Etherington got more stick from Arsenal that the whole of Arsenal got and never moaned about it.
