It's Stoke Or The Barcodes
Arsenal have been given a rare home tie but must wait to find out who their FA Cup 4th round opponents will be after being paired with either Stoke City or the hapless Newcastle United.
The Gunners rather fortuitously beat lower league Burnley at Turf Moor yesterday whilst Stoke City held Newcastle to a bore draw at home.
In other cup news, Tottenham's dream FA Cup year came to an end after drawing Manchester United away, assuming they can get past Reading first

Arsenal v Stoke City/Newcastle
Coventry v Walsall/Millwall
Oldham v Huddersfield Town
Swindon/Barnet v Fulham/Bristol Rovers

Luton/Liverpool v Swansea/Havant & Waterlooville

Man Utd v Tottenham/Reading
Portsmouth v Plymouth
Derby/Sheff Wed v Preston
Watford vWolves
Peterborough v Charlton/West Brom
Sheff Utd v West Ham/Man City

lol at Spurs, couldn't have happened to a worse team! I think we've got a good draw there and can see Wenger playing the Cup side again - he's learnt from past seasons when the first team . It's going to be a busy period for them were burnt out for important games towards theend of the season. Plus, this gives people like Gilberto, Bendtner, Denilson etc the playing time they are asking for. Bendtners goal yesterday was classic Bergkamp/Ljungberg and something we haven't seen for quite sometime. Nick took his chance brilliantly and I think we can safely say that we have now got 4 quality strikers at our disposal - and with Theo waiting in the wings to finally grow up - the future is certainly bright!

BTW, not sure if this is aloud on this forum, but if any season ticket holders don't want to go to this (or you know anyone who doesn't), I'm happy to pay for two tickets so I can take my missus along for this game.
michael105uk
Michael - check the ticket section of the forum, there always seems to be some gooners who are happy to help on there.

cheers Rocky, sorry - I wasn't aware it existed.

Go Stoke!!! and lol at Spurs, anothe early exit from the FA cup.
AB_Arsenal
lol, just looked at the Academy player list we have. Did anyone realise we have Tom Cruise playing for us?
michael105uk
***** I hope Stoke beat Newcastle, having to look at Allardyce's mug four times for two seasons in a row is too much for my eyes to bare.
Ozi Gooner
A bit off topic and appologies if you've seen this before, but you HAVE to watch this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FVeMcgJs-U

'Another early exit from the FA cup', get your facts right****.
ScottDaYid
michael105uk- Apparently he came with Beckham
WouldYouBelieveIt?!
What is Bendtner doing in that pic? Is he halfway thru doing a w@nker sign?
nikolaijns
I want the bar-codes. Arsenal will slap the cocky twit of a manager Sam Allardyce and get him the sack.
Thing
Lol Nikolaijn. He probably was, but the cameras were on him and he acted out as a little angel. :P
Thing
i hope newcastle wins so we can put them out of their misery ourselves.. its abt time wenger gives big sam a 7-0 trashing
McGooner
Thanks for the link, michael105uk, that's some funny stuff.
BMF
nikolaijns, maybe that pic was shot when Bendtner was going to do the *****ing sign towards the spud fans.
BMF
ScottDaYid, I could say the same of your spud reporters. One reporter stated Arsenal is "struggling" and we are only on top of the league because our first six games (including you spuds) were easy. If we are "struggling", what can we say about your team?
BMF
Even if you get past Reading, any person with a brain won't fancy your team beating Man Utd at Old Trafford, especially if the likes of Ronaldo and Rooney are playing.
BMF
I'm pretty sure the pic shows Niklas in the final step of Bruce Lee's famous "Claw of the Tiger" move, as he has just stamped his foot into Robbie Keane's groin... Enough of that though... Hopefully Stoke will have sent Allardyce scrambling for a new job by the time we play the 4th round.
Andy-bayor
I'm glad Big Sam can finally be shown for what he is. He is a great manager but the media machine in this country is ruthless. They'll hype you up and then destroy you. Big Sam was grossly over-rated. Newcastle were never the best team for him. His a route one merchant and they want "sexy football", Arsene what have you done?!
Keplaz
perhaps the biggest suprise of the draw has to be chelsea have an away tie??? wots goin on!
zinedine_cygan
I will prefer we get Stoke..just not looking forward to see Sam again at Emirates, the one game remaining for EPL is enough. May be we will let Stoke play like Burnley and make it an entertaining game after all..;)
