Despite me openly and loudly predicting an Arsenal victory in this year’s Champions’ League final against Barcelona, many upset goooners feel ati I was being patronising ati condescending. That’s the problem with these teams that rarely reach finals, their supporters do not know who how to behave. They are so used to being good losers; they forget how to be good winners! Anyway in another attempt to calm the nerves of Arsenal fans I have searched the great google cache in the sky for signs of divine intervention that Arsenal will win. I have a good track record when it comes to this. Last year I gave you signs that Liverpool (WWI5T) would spank AC Milan, now here we go with The Arsenal.
Sign 1
Arsenal qualified for the European Cup final
Middlesbrough qualified for the UEFA Cup final
There have only been two other occasions when English teams made both finals in European competition. In 1981 and in 1984. In both those years both English teams won their respective trophies. (No prizes for guessing which team from England won the Big One in both those previous finals). OK so Middlesbrough were spanked yesterday but still karma is on your side.
Sign 2
Umm … ok that’s all I’ve got so far (but to be fair you guys did not give me much to work with seeing as you never reached this final before). If you have any other signs please let me know.

‘patronising ati condescending’…yes indeedy.
Could all this be due to the fact that that silly team of yours has not won any anything this year (and is not likely to win anything for a loooong while to come)?
