    Oh Fulham!

    Great result tonight (Everton 4 - Fulham 1), just hope that Anichebe's okay. With any luck Bolton and Spurs will mess up their next games (Spurs play Chelsea which works in our favour) and we'll beat Bolton in our next game to take us closer to a UEFA Cup spot.

    Nice to see Charlton out of the drop zone. Or to be more precise, nice to see Sheffield United in it. Let's hope today's results keep things that way.

    What's your grudge with Sheffield United?

    Although I admit they have a household Championship side name I'd much rather they stay. As much as I've grown to like Alan Pardew over the last few months and as much as I feel sorry for West Ham I'll stick to my guns and finish off rooting for the side I wanted to avoid relegation near the start of the season

    My problem's more with Neil Warnock than Sheffield United, although after they beat us at Bramall Lane earlier this season, I can't say I'm too enamoured with the team themselves, either.

    To be honest, I'd quite like to see Charlton stay up anyway. Pardew's done a great job turning them around, and to see them stay up at West Ham's expense after the events of this season would be delicious. Plus, they've got Alex Song on their books at the moment, so that's an added reason for Arsenal fans to root for them. It's not as if they're real London rivals anyway.

    I went to see the Boro against Watford today. Watford were absolutely awful - they made us look like a good passing team! I can definitely see why they're bottom of the Premiership

    He's injured. Well, probably. He plays for Newcastle, so it's pretty much a given (who, incidentally, is one of the few who is rarely injured).

    Re: Arsenal and finishing third/fourth.

    If Arsenal finish third: YES YES WE ARE THE GREATEST!!! SCOREZONE!!!
    If Arsenal finish fourth: Le sulk! We don't care! Third and fourth are just as bad!

    Re: Emre.
    Didn't he get banned or taken out of the team because of some racism debacle?

    Also just wanna point out what you internet folk call a "lol" that I saw at the Arsenal - Hammers game. An advertisement reading "UEFA Champions League 06/07 - Out 23rd March!" there is so much brilliance in that.

    Oh, alright. Since you so astutely made an "Arsenal are French" observation, I'll reward you with the admission that third place is very very important, bestowing as it does the remarkable prestige of being the least sucky team with unrealistic title aspirations. Bravo, Liverpool Reds.

    I know! You'd think they'd have got round to changing the advertising boards by now.

    What can I say, I'm like an internet Alan Hansen. To follow on, Arsenal are currently hitting a bad patch of form because Arsene Wenger won't change his tactics and is only playing kids! It's 100% true, folks! I am a former footballer (In Year 6 I scored 18 goals), so I know what I am talking about.

    The other thing I just love is the way they've only just released the game, even though the CL is nearly over. Oh wait no, releasing it in September or so would mean it would have to compete with EA's (I am assuming this game is EA made, as they own the licenses to everything, even the BAoTW game. When I was making my own unofficial version, I had to call the characters Pzylohicx and Camzstar) other football game, FIFA, for the share of the Christmas wallet. Oh EA, you are shrewd businessmen indeed!

    I too am a veteran of Year 6 football (a "Centre Back Stopper") and it is my opinion that Arsenal's problem is that they are always trying to score the perfect goal and making one pass too many! However, when they play well they have it all: Pace. Power. Movement. Precision. Movement. Movement. Movement.

    Things were worse back on the Sega Mega Drive, when for some strange reason EA were too lazy to keep the squads up to date in their FIFA games. As a result, the FIFA 96 game, made for the 96/97 season, had the likes of Queens Park Rangers and Norwich City when all I really wanted was to play as newly promoted Derby County. Also, they only had one player model for each team, so Ian Wright was white, and Ian Rush was un-moustached.

    Hate Solano. Really hoping we win this one. Not only will it mean that Newcastle lose, but it'll keep us in fourth. Ugly Bolton in hot pursuit. NO WAYYY. Argghfjefeirufek

    this is of utmost importance
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    Indeed, however i would rather watch Arsenal attempt that and sometimes fail than watch route one, long ball football or overly defensive, physical football which is designed to frustrate skillfull teams.

    On a side note: damn that will be us (Brentford) relegated then, even my last hope of salvation has gone now. (I know i should have given up weeks ago but i had to keep the faith as long as possible)
