A great night at the Emirates. 60 minutes of torture, the bloke behind me, abusing, Wenger, Arshavin but most of all Bendtner. Then at around the hour mark, Bendtner, cuts in from the left and fires past the Ipswich keeper. Scenes of wild excitement, including the the critical mass behind my right ear. Of course as so often happens - "when you get one, you'll get more". Two further goals inquick succession, and the Gooners are going to Wembley.
Last night we had tickets in Block 6, seats that were only used at half time. We stood, sang, held scarves aloft, as football should be. A grand night out.
Now tickets for the final at Wembley might be a trickier project !
