Champions League Draw

posted on Arsenal-mania forum...Can't wait to get to The Emirates to experience that special Gooner atmosphere you lot create for nights like this, I know we Liverpool fans love to create a special atmosphere under the floodlights on big European nights, and I'm sure 60,000 in The Emirates will be up for it as well.It'll be great to hear all the famous Arsenal anthems, a particular favourite of mine is GOONERS! GOONERS!, Can't remember how the rest goes but it's great.I'm sure the Cockney rapier wit will be evident, that one were you change the words of You'll Never Walk Alone and sing 'Sign On' instead of 'Walk On', will get an airing, always makes me laugh that, whoever come up with that is a genius, and so original, as no other fans from any other club have ever sang that, ever.Another one that always tickles me is when you shout 'Hoof' everytime an opposing player passes the ball more than ten yards, brilliant! It makes us all aware that Arsenal are true artisans and not boring anymore.I hope I don't get to hear one of your other famous chants though, the one that goes 'one-nil, to the Arsenal', because that will mean you've scored. I heard you lot sing that at the San Siro recently, and then cleverley changed it to '2-0 to the Arsenal' when you scored again, brilliant!And the banners, can't wait to see all those famous banners, the one with a white background with red cross and Arsenal FC in 6 inch letters across the middle is a good one.Anyway, see you all soon, can't wait to experience your special fans, you're the best!*crying gif*
looooooooool

Not a joke but interesting from the liverpool echo:

A MYSTERIOUS informant in India was behind the tip that led to the Champions League draw prediction on the ECHO website.All four ties were correctly identified on our Liverpool FC forum 90 minutes before the draw in Switzerland.The man behind the prediction today revealed it came in a tip-off from Goa.Identified on the website as “Confused”, the internet user asked to remain anonymous, but said he had been told the draw by two different contacts.He said one of them received a “one-off” call from Goa on Tuesday.The forum poster was so convinced he decided to place a £200 stake on the draw – but couldn’t find a bookmaker to take his money.He said: “A friend received the call from abroad but was struggling to find someone who would take his money.“No-one would take my money either.”Several bookmakers said it was usual practice not to open a book on cup draws.But William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe insisted the company would have offered 7-1 as the odds on one particular team drawing another.He said: “Football fans are very interested in the outcome of a draw, but they are generally not interested in putting money on it. We were taking bets but there weren’t many made.“It is hardly surprising someone had guessed a draw with limited options.“There is nothing untoward going on. What would be the point? There would have to be so many people involved.”The man’s post sparked a huge demand to log onto the ECHO website.Former Russia goalkeeper Rinat Dasaev made the draw, which was televised live from Nyon, standing beside Uefa general secretary David Taylor.Uefa spokesman William Gaillard said the draw was 150% honest and claimed the ECHO forum user “must have supernatural powers”.Thousands hit websiteMORE THAN 500,000 people logged on to the ECHO website over the weekend.News of the Champions League prediction spread quickly, with more than 200,000 having a look within 12 hours of the post at 10.30am.That figure shot up to half a million by Monday. More than 700 people replied to the post.

The fact they just brushed it off and said he has supernatural powers, suggests something i think.

This whole competition is tailor made for Chelsea. (Abramovic in Moscow for the final)The fact that should they make it to the semi's that the only team of significant note that they would have played will be a sinking Valencia is very suspicious.Also they have home advantage in the 2nd legs of the quarters and semis.Something is going on...
