    Not a chance. I'm still trying my damnedest to ignore the new football season, and not just for the obvious reasons. Give me back my summer!

    Was going to go but getting kind of bored of the whole trip to Cardiff - 4 years running now(although it should be a good game I reckon). Tickets even went on general sale for Arsenal this year. Awkward enough place to get to for a lot of gooners and many aren't too interested in sharing trains with Chelsea fans!

    Tight budget this year so have gone for the home game Vs Newcastle next weekend instead what with it being the last year of Highbury n all.

    Enjoy the game

    Tickets were on general sale last year too.
    I just didn't fancy the trip.

    It's a straight run down the M4 and very well serviced by trains from London Paddington. (All of which are sold out up until 11.45)
    I'm going down on Saturday night.

    Looking to get a ticket to that myself.
    I'm going to Highbury tomorrow for a training session. Get to see the farewell exhibition afterwards. I'll say hi to Wenger and the boys for you.

    Many of the lads I know from London have been held up in traffic diversions on almost every single trip to Cardiff. Having to play a semi at 12.45 last year and travelling at an ungodly time and still getting caught up in delays was the final straw for some of them!!

    My bloody ticket for the member day training arrived today! I thought I hadn't been successful and hadn't bothered booking flights or time off etc....Can't get the time off work so my Bro is going instead now......gutted.

    I'll have to make do with watching it on Arsenal TV tomorrow morning. Enjoy, should be a great day!!

    It would seem to be yours since I've opened them on multiple machines here.

    All I can see is on the site is the titles of the pics - no images or thumbnails and they're not hyper links so can't figure it out - same on all 5 pages of your pics.

    Bit weird as I'm at work and usually don't have a problem with these things!!!

    I'm beginning to think Members Day just wasn't meant to be for me this year!!!

    You'll have to ask someone else if they're any good.
    I'll get Pat O'Banton on the case.

    I can see your pictures fine Peader, good job, some very nice pics. As a matter of interest, how di duyou get to the open day? was it through a draw for members? I went on the tour of the ground a few weeks back, pretty enjoyable overall.
    Anyone think Jenas might be on his way?

    Yeah, there was a draw.
    It was the last Members Day in the famous old ground.
    Hope you liked the picture of the new stadium cropping up behind the West Stand?

    From what I saw yesterday, Hleb will start on Sunday.
    Can't see Jenas coming to Arsenal during this transfer window.

    The starting line-up for Sunday would seem to be;

    Lehmann
    Lauren Toure Senderos Cole
    Ljungberg Flamini Hleb Pires
    Henry Reyes

    It would seem that Chelsea fans are above contributing to the football community. The thousands of empty seats in their section was an utter disgrace. Don't know if it was so apparent on TV but there were whole sections empty.
    What more should we expect, I suppose!
