Or there's always the usual minute-by-minute blogs. Check out the fixtures and share your thoughts after the jump. (Oh, and check out our fancy new URL... but please do not bitch if things go kerflooey.)

  1. Norwich are at home to Palace too. The CL isn't the 'be all' of everything!!

  2. Someone at the BBC live ticker thing points out that Arsenal are starting seven left-footed players tonight. That has to be some kind of CL record, right?

  16. Marcos Senna is going to be subbed due to an injury, Teletubby had a very nice shot on goal saved by Villareal, but otherwise not much going on in Man U land.

  22. Bendtner for Gunners in the 86th. We're through to the knockout-stages, thanks to the Danish Sulk.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I think it was Bendtner's magic bubblegum pink shoes that won it for us.

  24. Bayern looked strong today. I wouldn't want to see them in the knockouts.

    ReplyDelete
  25. The way that Arsenal's season has been going, I'll take the 1-0 shaky win to put us into the knockout stage!

    Oh, and Exeter drew but sneak back into the League Two playoff spots.
