I know, i shouldn’t laugh. I feel for her.

She and her mate didn’t organise the timings properly. They werecasually thinking they could leave at 11:30 and stroll into North London. I told them to leave by 9:30ish.

My trip to Liverpool parade was organised. I was at Allerton about 11 am and the parade started at 2pm.

Hate this Arsenal team for how they play and their non football but, to be fair, when else would they have the parade? Before the final would take time from training etc and mean it would be a very tame affair for players - it’s their first title in 20 odd years - so it’s logical that it happened afterwards. And then it’s best to get it done asap regardless of CL result.

Did the fans look happy at least? It’s for their benefit really.

Yup, not having bank holiday tomorrow doesn’t help and they will expected to fly out probably by latest Tuesday.

Chelsea :joy:

My friend reached Islington and managed to see the bus for about 2 seconds. But there were so many flares, she couldn’t take any pictures!
It was mayhem, she made a few friends to follow the Gooner crowd. There are loads of people.

She shared a taxi with 4 young guys, she said, "I am old enough to be their grandma! ":joy:

She is not finding it funny. She said it is so chaotic and disorganised and dropped her sandwich in the chaos. see_no_evil_monkey: :joy:

She saw one bus crash into another bus. All okay, no injuries.

Spanish Southgate was a nice touch.

“If you don’t like seeing one of the most expensive teams of all time pack all 11 men into their own defensive third for over an hour of in-game time then your probably just too stupid to understand it”

I’ve seen it described as a defensive masterclass that was reminiscent of classic Italian catanaccio. The issue I have with that is that it was fucking boring and shite when the Italians did it too.

Yeah, love the bit of gaslighting from him there.

Like by all means celebrate your achievements but we don’t need to pretend it’s anything but good.

We did the same after losing to Real Madrid in the final. I think it was the FA Cup parade at the time.

Makes sense not to have a parade right before a major final. Arrogance would be thinking you can show up to a final hung over.

A thread of Arsenal fans stealing pictures from the Liverpool parade pretending they are from the Arsenal parade. Typical.

Oh, be a bit magnaminous. :wink:
Let them enioy a little fleeting cheap thrill.
If they attempt to steal our O’ Big Ear - something they never won even once - that’s a different story. Stuff it up their sorry A##es. :sweat_smile:

That’s how they’ve played all season though.
