Thought Bradford were exceptional- that Wells guy tormented Vermaelen (sp?).

Gervinho is hilariously bad. What the fuck is he doing starting regularly at this level? Obviously he'll somehow manage the odd great goal and performance but the guy is, far more often than not, useless.

Gonna have to try and stream Chelsea at work tomorrow. That'll be a little weird.

Credit to Chamakh for sticking with that hairstyle.

The first time I saw it I thought it was definitely transient. But then in my yearly glimpses of him around this time when he's wheeled out for a couple of cup games, it's always there. Beckham's had 8 different hairstyles in that period. Can't fault him - he's given the receding wet-look mullet a fair shake of the stick. Well played.

not sure i've ever seen a more impressive/embarrassing cup victory/loss

Obviously they didn't play like that but bradford being 3 tiers below with quite a few injuries (and not spending relative megabucks / storming the league) vs. a champions league side fielding at least 8/11 of their best players, in the latter stages of a competition they obviously really want to win

absolutely mental. can even forgive WE ALL HATE LEEDS SCUM for a bit.

Nestor | 12 Dec '12, 09:55 | X | ^ This | Reply
Think Bradford can go on and win the Champions League from here

Gervinho is just bad, Ramsey isn't much better and Podolski needs a kick up the arse.

Think the Wenger Out! brigade are a bit clueless though, it's only the League Cup.

Also, it feels odd supporting the non-overdog team in a match like last night

Feels a bit evil. Couldn't help smiling when every time and Arsenal player went to take a throw or a corner then hordes of scally kids were falling over the barrier just to call them a wanker.

Slightly annoyed that Nakhi Wells seems to have made a name for himselfnow

We're rumoured to be in for him, so him mugging Arsenal defenders will have put a few pounds on the price tag. Dead happy for Bradford though, hope they can get promoted this year. I miss our rivalry.

- once was sat behind the goal at the McAlpine (as was)
  
  when huddersfield got an 89th minute winner in a 3-2 over Bradford. pretty euphoric scenes

  - Was that the season Bradford went up to the Premiership?
    
    Know we did the double over them that season, thought it was 2-1 at the Mac and 3-2 at Valley Parade though. Could be mistaken. I only really started to dislike Bradford once they got to the Prem and their fans started lording it over us. Now they've had a few seasons in the basement, that mentality seems to have gone, and I can go back to looking forward to it as a fun rivalry.
    
    Talking about euphoric scenes, seeing the Bradford fans last season when they beat us in the JPT (on penalties naturally) was something else.

    When he joined us, he looked absolute solid... This season, he looks like all our other defenders... Flustered!!!
    He looks shot to shit against Nahki Wells!!!

      - Every single Arsenal player should give their weeks wage to Great Ormond Street hospital after this performance. How can they get £20 - 80k for this rag?!
        Wilshere & Cazorla have been outplayed by a 35 year old no one for Bradford. That is embarrassing!
        We have been shocking, and Bradford fully deserve the win. End of!

        Any of them 'head in the sand' Arsenal supporters that still have trust in Wenger, and still think we are ok... Justify tonight... Cos its another season with no trophy, and prob not a top 4 finish.
        But what would I know??? I've only been saying this for 7 or so years.

        He's got the whole package downpat.
        
        From the post-match I-told-you-so lecture that completely ignores his own pre-match prognosis, to the angry demand that players donate their wages to charity that is a staple of the armchair wanker.
        
        Cherish this idiot DK, and never let him go. I wish I knew someone like this.

        but if you're able to find his reaction to the Newcastle v Arse 4-4 from a few seasons ago I would be in your debt.
        
        You should definitely start a blog of this.
