Do any of you remember what you were doing in 1979? No? Well, I can tell you one thing that happened. We beat Arsenal F.C. at our stadium that year. It probably didn't feel like a momentous occasion at the time but little did we know that we wouldn't beat them again for 37 bloody years. We never beat Arsenal. They are bastards. And spoilt bastards at that. But guess what happened last night folks? Yep that's right, we beat 'em. And not only beat 'em. We whipped 'em. Of course, pundits are all focused on how disgraceful it is for Arsenal to lose like this. How the management need to be fired and players reprimanded. How this is maybe the lowest moment in their history. Errr, excuse me. What are we, chopped liver? Is it really that damn embarrassing to lose to the Eagles. Even in defeat those bastards can find a way to belittle us.
How about let's say that Crystal Palace are amazing and, as Donnie Darko so eloquently put it, all you other teams can go "suck a fuck".
My fellow feathered friends. This was an amazing day. We are now two wins above the relegation zone with only six to play. We have now won 5 of the last six games. It is generally agreed now that we will be spending yet another year in the Premier League next year. We play last year's champions Leicester this Saturday at 9am. Come on down to Fado and witness another miracle.
