Got my bets on for tonight......

Barcelona to go through 10/1
Barcelona to win 5-0 @ 40/1
Barcelona to win 6-1 @ 50/1
Barcelona to win 7-1 @ 125/1
Barcelona to win 7-2 @ 150/1

Yeah baby!!!!!!!!! Wish I'd put more on it now. Just had a strange feeling that they'd do it. Still, a £35 return for a £3 outlay isn't a bad result.
 
Nice one Colchester :)

Shame you didnt get the 200/1 to qualify in running too :p

As you'll see from my initial outlay tonight I'm not a big gambler. I'll never get rich from it but equally I'll never go broke from it. Just a little flutter to keep it interesting while I'm watching.
 
Just seen the Suarez dive .................... astonishing!
He'd already been booked for diving so I'd have thought he'd have perfected his technique a bit.
He's a lucky lad and PSG will not want to see the replay!
Nor will Suarez!
 
ANY Pro footballer would go down looking for a pen in that circumstance.
Yes they are ALL cheats, but that `s what the stupid money being paid out has done to the top leagues and Cups nowadays.
 
I expect Fly Emirates must be having a rethink. 1st they have to suffer that 2 game embarrassment by the Gonners and then have to suffer that PSG debacle last night. They should claim a refund

It could be great reverse marketing, show clips of both matches & results then announce;

'Need to get away from all the crap at home, Fly Emirates will jet you away'

Then break into song, 'There coming to take you away ho ho ha ha he he.....

Shawcross was immense last night, a very underrated defender.
Not the most skillful but he'll always give you 100% ......................... always.

That was one of his finer games this season, slightly made up for the horror show he had against Spurs the other week.

A lot of fans been calling for us to replace him this season, after his back problems he seemed to lose a little bit of pace and seemed a bit shaky.
He's a brilliant defender though, totally committed and has been a stalwart player in the growth of our club.
 
Arsenal just released a statement.

Club chairman Sir Chips Keswick has made a rare comment following speculation about the future of manager Arsene Wenger. The Frenchman is under pressure from fans following two 5-1 defeats to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. Supporters are also upset with majority shareholder Stan Kroenke, who rarely speaks in public.

Arsenal chairman Sir Chips Keswick says:
“We are fully aware of the attention currently focused on the club and understand the debate. We respect that fans are entitled to their different individual opinions but we will always run this great football club with its best long-term interests at heart.
"Arsène has a contract until the end of the season. Any decisions will be made by us mutually and communicated at the right time in the right way.”

So, make of that what you will :mmm:

Most unusual for a board member of any PL club to make a public statement... With the unprecedented level of unfounded speculation surrounding the club, at present, the board perhaps felt the need to attempt to steady the ship...
