Brilliant - I like that post Smile

Don't even get me started on the Venezuelans. Confused

Why does everyone hate venezuelans?!?! Confused

Once again, thank you for the very nice welcomes, GOBati, Big Revolution and Altrincham Lad.

I do hope I haven't peaked too early with my intro. It is a problem I sometimes have. Embarassed

GOBati, just have to say, Batistuta is one of the best strikers I have ever seen. I was at Wembley Stadium that night in the CL, when the Arsenal back 4 snuffed him out for most of the game. One chance he had, just one and how he buried it. Total class!!!

Final score Arsenal 0 Fiorentina 1 and the Gunners out of the CL again.

Even though your a gooner (boo) I'll still Welcome you. Very Happy

Welcome Peter - nice to see someone else who remembers those old days at Highbury.
If you've been a fan for 40 years, you'll have just missed that nearly empty stadium v Leeds in 1966 then.
I missed that game - but so did just about everyone Laughing

And it's nice to see Steely be so welcoming to an Arsenal fan - I thought he'd be moaning that you're not blowing bubbles Smile

Cheers twmcat!

I was 5 in 1966 and I think "Watch With Mother" was on the black and white TV so I had a valid excuse for not being there.
My first ever game as a fan was against West Ham reserves at Upton Park. I must have been around 6 or 7 at the time. Arsenal ran out 4-1 winners and even though it was a reserve game, I was completely hooked.

Ah, Steely and me were dragged up on the same manor. There would be mutual respect even if I had Venezuelan parentage. Laughing

You really are unpredictable, aren't you? Laughing

And Arsenal fans would have welcomed rohypnol in the past - please believe me Rolling Eyes
