Ask not the price of watching a premiership live match...

Arsenal

It's damn farnie how things ended up when we got to our seats.... Chris and I sat at the north stands, amongst the thousands of Man Utd fans... quite high up as you can see from the pics. LC and SY got the East stands seats... from the look of the pics, it really looks like they got a better deal!! so near to the pitch! haha... but here comes the irony...

Chris and I rightfully sat in the midst of a sea of reds supporters.... i can imagine Chris's jubilance and excitement being right there in the stadium watching her team play... c'mon if it was Liverpool i would be jumping up and down and screaming at the top of my voice lor... but then again... if u can picture 2 chinese sitting amongst all the ang mohs... maybe its wise that i think twice?? ha....

LC and SY on the other hand.... weren't tt lucky.... as they approached the gates, the steward started calling out "Arsenal fans!! this way!! Arsenal fans!! this way!!" LC and SY could only look at each other blindly.... and end up bursting out into laughter... satirical?? HAHHAHAHHA..... What are the chances of getting Arsenal seats when there's only 3000 Arsenal seats out of the 70, 000 odd available.... damn GG...... I almost pengz when I heard their story.... must ask SY give you a re-enactment...

Pre-match warming up.... can u spot Ruud in the pic on the right??

exchanging of handshakes before kick-off.....

All the live action taking place in front of you.... look at how packed the stadium is.... the relentless chants.... constant anticipation each time rooney touches the ball... the man utd fans will go "rooo!! rooo!! rooo!! rooo!!"..... which sounds so much like "boo boo boo" to me at first... i was thinking.. wth are man utd fans doing boo-ing their own team.... ha... dumb me as usual...

There were some other chants like "Same old Arsenal.... Always cheating.....", and of cos who can miss out on the "Glory glory man united.... Glory glory man united.... *repeat*... and the the Reds go marching on on on!!!" haha.... so fun singing along.... tho i'm not man utd fan... i bet chris totally enjoyed it all...
