Yeah it's been a very good contest. Arsenal were fortunate with the penalty thing, Bowyer was certainly onside.

Birmingham score late on, that could win it. Arsenal have 3 and a half more minutes. Clanger from the keeper and defender (don't ask me to spell either)
HAHAHA!!! Laughing at all those Gooners slinking off early and crying while their team STILL cant pick up some silverwear! Along with beating the bindippers, this has been an awesome day of football for me!

And yet again I didn't bother having a flutter on the winners of a cup, just my luck. But congrats to Birmingham.
Huge night at the Camp Nou tonight, Barcelona vs Arsenal. Van Persie and Fabregas both start for Arsenal, Van Persie being a risk somewhat. Barca miss Puyol and Pique (Injury and Suspension respectively) but they do have Messi, Villa and Pedro up front. I think Barca will win 3-1.
Wearing my Barca shirt on now ^^
Same lol, my older one though because my other's in the wash.
Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!1
Messi, my shirt number/name scores......hola!
I have Messi too 
Nice set up from Cesc there, getting practice in for when he comes back home soon
Wonderful from Messi though.

Dramatic start to the second half, Busquets with an own goal and Van Persie sent off for kicking the ball away, second yellow. Gonna be some last half hour or so here.
Damn, an o.g. but van Persie is off
I thought Van Persie's red was harsh actually.
2-2 Xavi, now a penalty to Barca.
3-2, this is nervous for me though, Arsenal goal means it's 4-4 and another away goal.

Whoa, in the lead on aggregate, bye Arsenal
Barca have wasted a good number of chances here. I hope it doesn't cost them.
Phew, barca through. Great game though.
Yup, the Gooners are out, hopefully they can concentrate on the league
now lets support the spurs tomorrow
Barca were by far the better side for me, bar their goal and the close call with Bentdner I don't remember Arsenal having a decent chance in the entire game, 19-0 on shots speaks volumes.
I tell you what also, Barcelona are the greatest club side I have ever seen. And I say this as someone who saw our treble winning team of 99, who saw our 2008 team, who saw our 94 team, who saw Arsenal's 2004 team. They are just incredible.
