RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

Watched 30 mins or so until it was 3.0.
Not had any dinner so went to cook and let my phone let me know when to rush back for the comeback.
It hasn't.
About 10 mins left.

Pretty awful showing from the little I saw.

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

According to my new Garmin watch 1hr 23 mins high stress.
I wonder what that could've been. Pretty well every minute from when we scored.
Absolutely bricking it as soon as we got to extra time, was convinced we were going out.
As you say that Odegaard pass was an inch perfect thing of beauty.
Glad Wendel missed one given what a hard time he gave Saka.

Nineteen days off now to recover for City.
I gather there's a couple of irrelevant international friendlies in between.
They'd better not break anyone.

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

Watched the whole thing now.
They were playing as much to get us a red card as to score, outrageous time wasting.
Two definite pens we should have had.
The ref wasn't too bad but far too chatty, he was adding as much time as Brentford.

Didn't realise the second goal was that late.

The Toney/Gabriel incident was about 93 mins. They went down in a tackle and Toney was holding onto Gabriel's leg. Words after and a definite finger pointing to the tunnel from Toney.

Over all bloody good preparation for Porto as they are going to be up to all those games.

Total time ball was in play 49.26 minutes. Well less than 50% of the match time.

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

Saw a few mins of the first half (Inc Declans goal) but then missed it until I caught the second half on the radio (with bloody Savage on co-comms).

So I'll have to watch MOTD or club highlights.
Glad what is probably Ramsdale's last match for us wasn't defined by the ricket.

Second half commentary reckoned in one incident Toney was offering Gabriel out in the tunnel after the game?
Any ideas?

Road House

I'm not entirely sure about this

The original with Swayze is one of my favourite B movies and I'm far from happy about Conor McGregor in is acting debut.

March 21st on Amazon.
Might give it a try

I'd have to say my favourite player is McCabe but Lotte's bloody close now, just nerveless.Quote:

After Sheffield I'm thinking a Hat trick from any of our men's team is unlikely as once they've got two Arteta will be looking to rest them.
Same reason I don't expect to exceed six in a match for the rest of the season but hey, I'll settle for that. 😄

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

They must be putting something in the water at Arsenal.

Got back a bit late and switched on the AWFC League cup match vs Villa and we're 3.0 up in less than 20 mins.
4.0 final score.
So a final against either City or Chelsea.
I think we're playing well enough to beat either but won't be easy. 🤞

NASA Viper mission

You can get your name micro engraved on Viper.
In fact on a few missions if you search.

I've done it for myself and my grandson.

I'm sad enough to find it really cool that my name will be floating around up there long after I'm gone and the one that's on Europa will not arrive there until my six year old grandson is starting senior school.
His jaw dropped a bit when I told him that's how long it took to get there.

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

We may not win the league but it won't be for lack of trying or without giving the fans loads to enjoy on the way.

For a team that was 'lacking a striker' according to every pundit and his mother a few weeks back it's just been pointed out we stand a very good chance of finishing the season with six players in double figures.

Saka (16) and Trossard (10) already there and
Odegaard (9)
Havertz, Jesus and Martinelli all on (8)
Also we now have 6 better GD than Liverpool and 10 better than City.

Well done AFCW for the 1.0 win over Tottenham despite not playing our best and Mead in particular seeming to be right off her form.
Do love me some Lotte though, totally unflappable.

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

Well that was all kinds of fun.
Even one of our old boys scored against us and another broke United's twisted, shrivelled little heart.

I'd chalk that up as one of the better days of 2024 so far.

If there's a prem team that's liable to watch us v Porto and think 
Yep. We're going down that route
It's Newcastle.
They already did it in the first tie where we got done by officialdom.

We owe them one and I sincerely hope we can give it to them tomorrow.
I could do with my weekend not being ruined.

RE: [VIDEO] The Grand Tour Season 3

Despite Clarkson's ability to shove his green hunter in his gob up to the strap I still like all three of them.
Liked May's Re-assembler and wish he'd do some more.
Hammonds car restoration exploits and even Clarkson's Farming.

Somehow though I can't work up the enthusiasm to be bothered with three men and some wheels.

"But meh, it was a wonder goal"

Having calmed down a bit after 24 hours TBF we should have been one down in the first half and despite us having all the possession they had the better chances.
If we can't take the final result back at ours then we're probably not good enough to win it against better opposition, though better opposition would probably give us a more open game.

RE: [VIDEO] Arsenal 23/24 season

The entire match managed despite Porto falling over anytime they were within two yards of an Arsenal player and getting a free kick every ****ing time.
Then we are that bloody naïve in the last minute.

Absolutely spitting. 😬😬😬

The only thing I can remember about Sapphire and Steel is the title. I'll have to go back and watch an episode or two, I think it's on ITVX.

Halfway through series 11.

"the whole supernatural thing - why?  Danvers didn't believe any of it but sometimes seemed to see/sense things but it was all brushed aside and not explained."

I think they left as much as needed.
A very close society with it's own take on religion and old stories woven in to it. This can rub off on outsiders when they are in it 24/7 and I think the permanent night contributed to that big time.
Enough of a resolution with enough left unsaid that we can argue it ever after.

As for hanging True Detective on it just to boost figures.
I have only seen this and series one but they seem well connected with a deep relationship between two main characters, both police.

I thought they got the balance quite well with that in the end.
Still left enough of it hanging for people to dismiss it or accept it.

As you say though bloody good series but then with Jodie Foster I'd expect no less.
Certainly got to where I was champing at the bit for the last episode to drop.
