No problem Tim. It was a great article. I know Chorlton well, I've wasted many a summers afternoon on Chorlton green outside the Horse and Jockey. I'll have a look at your others when I have time. Nice profile pick. You've got to love the Smiths!

Yep Arsenal should have won by 3 or even 4 but in all honesty I'm happy with the 1-0 win. A clean sheet at home is paramount, if we score first over there they will need three to go through so I'm pretty confident. Also De Rossi is suspended for the second leg which is a bonus for us.

I think we played well, Eboue wasn't as bad as usual, not that he was great and missed a great chance but at least we created. Denilson had a fine game.

As for Lyon-Barca - what a cheeky goal by Juninho.
