My Old Man,Said Be An arsenal Fan,I Said.............

For those of you familiar w/ that terrace chant you'll know why I couldn't finish it off....the more long winded yet politically correct description goes go away,your talking nonsense,you're an idiot.....lacks the bite of the actual song I feel!!!! It would've been nice if on what would've been his 78th b'day Spurs had pulled off the comeback of comebacks to overhaul their 0.4 first leg deficit for my dad,it wasn't to be and our incredible european journey in the Chanpions League ended in the 1/4 finals,a far cry from where any of us in the "Yid Army"expected us to get to when we started out in September vs Young Boys of Berne in a qualifier for the group stage,even then we were only seeded 3rd of 4 teams which meant we we only expected to reach the knock out stage of the Europa League.....instead we won our group by beating the holders Inter Milan and spread the love in Milan by beating Seria A leaders AC Milan in the famed San Siro. Sadly 9 time winners Real Madrid proved to be a bit too much of a challenge for us,though had Peter Crouch not been shown 2 yellow cards in the opening 15 mins in Madrid last week who knows what the outcome might've been. For a first ever season in the Champions League I though "arry's army" did a bang up job and it now behooves us to finish in the top 4 of the Premiership this season to have another crack at the Champions League next season. W/ 7 games to go we're 5th,3 points behind 4th place and a trip to the City Of Manchester to come,can lightning strike twice in the same place and we finish 4th???
