Thought you supported s*s Mars?

CHICagoMUM · 19/04/2006 19:17

That should read spurs btw Grin .

I do, but I have a Gooner son. If they don't win then life is horrible here for ages. Also... they're in Europe. You've got to support local boys when they're in Europe! Grin

(Yes I know that a win for them takes us closer to dropping out of Europe next year!)

You can never switch affiliation between spurs and arsenal (look at Ol' Sol).

foxinsocks · 19/04/2006 19:22

local boys?? well I won't start...

Dh and I have been arguing about whether we want them to win tonight or not. I would quite like them to go through and play Barca.

CHICagoMUM · 19/04/2006 19:23

Shame on you woman Grin . DH would be spitting bricks if he saw this.

Don't worry I won't, otherwise he'll ban me from coming on her, associating with the likes of you.

flutterbee · 19/04/2006 19:26

DH is a huge gunners fan, I however support a real football team Wink

Really really hope they win tonight.

CHICagoMUM · 19/04/2006 19:26

Coming on here I mean Blush .

Jzee · 19/04/2006 19:28

Yeah come on you Gunners!

CHICagoMUM · 19/04/2006 19:28

I have to say I hope they lose (sorry Mars) but Dh is in a bad enough mood tonight (still at work having just got out of a meeting that started at 10am, will be home at midnight and has another marathon meeting starting at 9am tomorrow - the words "final nail" and "coffin" spring to mind).

foxinsocks · 19/04/2006 19:30

it's awful going out at the semi final stage (boy do we know about that) - it's so gutting and it also means the final has no significance so I hope they go through (and barca go through from the other side)

I got chased down the high road after a tottenham game once (and I was pregnant). Ran into a very dodgy looking pub and he boarded up the outside while it all went off. He was completely relaxed and said he did it every time there was a home game!

foxinsocks · 19/04/2006 20:19

Arsenal all over them

cataloguequeen · 19/04/2006 20:22

GOONERS!!!!!!!!!!!Grin

foxinsocks · 19/04/2006 20:27

that looked offside

GDG · 19/04/2006 20:28

Mars, dh will be very upset with you - Spurs fans do not, under any circumstances root for Arsenal!!

foxinsocks · 19/04/2006 20:29

you can root for them in the semi-f if you want them beaten in the final (I'm not a spurs fan)

are you letting him watch mars? (can't remember how old he is) These are the sort of games he'll remember when he's older!

CHICagoMUM · 19/04/2006 20:45

GDG am with you on that one.
