Win a place at Junior Gunners’ screening of Chelsea v Arsenal
Mar 5th, 2014 by 'holic
We’ve teamed up with Arsenal to offer a couple of young Gooners and their parents the chance to watch a live screening of Chelsea v Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Saturday 22 March.
The screening will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of the club’s young supporter scheme the Junior Gunners, and lots will be going on to mark the milestone. There will be football games, an arts and crafts area, the chance to meet Gunnersaurus and get your hands on some giveaways too.
The screening has been arranged for members of the Junior Gunners, but we’ve got two pairs of tickets to give away to youngsters aged 4-16 accompanied by a parent or guardian.
To win the chance to go along, just answer this question:
What was the score when Arsenal played Chelsea in the league at Emirates Stadium earlier this season?
a) 0-0
b) 1-1
c) 3-3
Send your answer to competition@goonerholic.com before midnight on Monday 10th March. Please include your name and email address so Arsenal can contact you to make the arrangements if you are one of the winners.

Good luck, all.

One question: are there restrictions on the language you can use while watching the game?
I think the bar needs to know….
Ah, the Lee Dixon number! I think there has to be a restriction on language..
Let’s put it this way, N7. I won’t be there 😉
Evening bath. Hoping to see you on Saturday.
I know it’s not a …
Restriction on language?
I can only swear in one….. 😯
Holic, sadly I won’t make it.
My Archaeology Course has a visit to the British Museum at 11.15 – 1.15. Darn early kick-off.
The bathlets will be there.
What’s 3G reception like in the BM, anyone know?
Call that swerrin’, zico? You refined Embra types are far too nais!
Archaeology?
There will be enough fossils for you to study in the Tollie, bath 😉
Nice gesture, ‘holic and Arsenal.
Heh @5 and 8!
Archaeologists?
Official ‘ooligans all over.
Bless you, my son.
This fossil intends to be fuelled…..
😎
Am I the only one amused by the fact that Denmark have a player called Sloth and it isn’t Bendtner?
Indiana Bath and the Temple of Booze.
Heh! Dig that joke, H2H. 😉
We dug up a “striker” on an Eastern adventure;
Raiders of the Lost Park.
Bath found out his archaeology course was on at lunch time and his chances of getting to Arsenal lay in ruins. 😉
Megalithic Hehs at 12, 13,14, 15 and 16. You are the mutts as the Guvna says.
Not to mention 8. 10 and 11. Hehs.
If you get to the game really late, bath, maybe you can sit with Arsene in the dug out ………. ? 😉
It would be really appreciated if they would henge on until I get there before kicking off.
Stone me, that’s scraping the barrel. 😉
Heard today from a sensible and obviously wealthy Arsenal fan who lives a few doors from Bendtner. The night after the Bayern game he had to leave home at 5 to catch an early flight. He saw Bendtner arriving home as he left. Are we supposed to be upset he is leaving us? He has hung around like a bad smell for way too long.
Trev @ 21. Nah, it’s the earth we scrape and then we trowel off.
Or indeed, if it’s a Neolithic or Bronze Age dig, we scrape the barrow.
Neolithic or Bronze Age dig, bath. Which would you prefer ?
Go on – take your pick ! 😉
At least Tyrannical Fergusorearse is now restricted to the Theatre of Screams.
There will be links to Norman Ruins and His Fallen Arches next.
I agree with the sentiments above. This comp is a good look for the Jrs. The timing slightly conflicts with little GT’s academy training. He’s also a funny one when it comes to televised matches. He’ll sit through a match in the stadium, but doesn’t sit through matches at home. Just little parts here and there. Saying that, being around other JG’s could make him feel more settled.
Btw, it would be nice if the board could look into their seating scheme for younger JGs who cannot attend matches on their own. They need their parents to accompany them. Just saying. 🙁
I must say though, the more Sat lunch time approaches, the more I feel like splitting a toffee in half. Just saying 🙂
Afternoon gooners.
The round of pointless International friendlies last night hardly registered a Meh on my Giveashitometer, but I found a little something something that I thought I’d share with you.
Check it;

It’s worth it just for the bogus commentry.
Not to sure about the celebration though.
Cheers Holic!
That’s the gist of it, really.
Esso, hope all ok mate.
Good link, H2H.
Hail ! The new Henry. 😉
Campbell, The Ox, Gnabry, Rambo, Theo, backed up by Per, Kos,
Sir Chesny, et al ……
I’m beginning to think I don’t mind settlung for the annual Fourth Place Cup ! Who needs actual trophies when this kind of excitement beckons.
I can already feel my nipples beginning to explode with delight as I sail this hovercraft full of eels !
If you’re not old or silly enough to understand that – tough, I say,
tough ! 😉
Seconded, Holic, and to yourself.
Hi All
Sterling man of the match !
Funniest thing I have ever heard,
Thanks Trev, how is kneegate progressing? Any chance we see you on Saturday?
Trev@33 – is this a five-minute trip down memory lane or the full half hour?
Jack crocked?
Wilshere out for six weeks.
Hairline fracture of the foot.
That`s just fantastic, playing in a worthless friendly
Stupid fucking pointless Internationals that nobody could give a frig about.
The footballing gods are not funny !
It was friendly, why the fuck wasnt he taken off when it happened ?
If Lewin was still at Arsenal he would have been taken off, you could see the kid was in pain. As soon as it happened he was waving for the physio.
Hope AW dosent put the OX in in the middle on the weekend, he has to go out wide right.
Cheers
H2H @ 29: Thanks for sharing that link, I was just going to post it. He has always been quite a precocious talent, at 19-20 years of age he had played excellently against two international top teams in Brazil and Spain
Against Brazil: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBgKXxpciS0
The goal against Spain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNBd6eS5SZ4
The entire Arsenal squad coming out unscathed through a set of pointless international friendlies just before the end of season run-in? Impossible!!
Hopefully no one else is damaged — there were some talks about Kos having some muscular issues in the training but as he was in the subs’ bench maybe nothing too serious — and hopefully Jack is back fit after six weeks and can participate in the final month or so.
Trev@33. Now, now. This is not a tobacconist’s.
I wouldn’t wish to deny Jack or any player a World Cup trip, but part of me says it wouldn’t be bad for him to miss the tournament so he he can recuperate fully from this latest fracture and get a proper pre-season in to get back on track to where he should be following his previous injuries.
NBN @ 47: Especially given the extraordinarily humid Amazonian climate on which the group D will take place. If England gets through the group stage — which I doubt — you will find a lot of exhausted players in the quarters and hence more vulnerable to sustaining injuries.
Hopefully Ox would be used judiciously and not as a workhorse just because he has the strength and the attitude.
Having not witnessed the sumptuous football between England and Denmark, from the reports I just learned that it was no one else but Liverpool’s Danish thug Agger who had caused the injury to Jack!
Hurrah for international friendlies …
Sending this post just so the name and post number will be half a dollar.
Holic,
I honestly don’t know about Saturday yet. I had an arthroscopy two weeks ago which involved a lot of manipulating of the joint too, as the back of the kneecap is damaged as well. The tendon is very tight on the earlier bone graft and they’re not sure how to get the replacement joint in.
At the moment the whole knee looks blue from internal bleeding and it hurts like hell. Coming by train and walking back to Finsbury Park is a non-starter. My Emirates neighbour has said I can park at his house and get the bus which stops right near The Tollie.
Would live to make it Saturday but will have a late fitness test when I finish work tomorrow.
You would think he could at least get the color right but I’m not a football expert so who am I to say.

Bloody diabolical news on Jack. Scunt hitman conspiracy. Just as well he’s been poor lately and Aaron targeting Spud game.
Quite agree, bath. Looked very bad when it happened.
Congratulations Fifa – a few more quid in the coffers. The only thing that matters.
Stupid bloody friendlies – the week before the season begins and in the middle of the first knockout round of the Champions League.
Never mind all the interminable, boring, poxy qualification games for whichever corrupt competition we are in the middle of at the time.
I am sliding ‘out of love’ with this game. 🙁
Dr F@48: Good point. Given the paucity of strikers available to Woy (when Carroll still has a chance of a seat on the plane to Brazil you know how threadbare England’s resources are in that department), I fear the Ox will be given a lot of work out wide.
When Jack burst into the first team scene he was a tremendously exciting and precocious project. Sadly he appears to be a player ( already carrying an underlying ankle problem ) who seems to lurch from injury to injury. Trev would give a much more expert analysis of my theory but it seems as in Diaby’s case that a major injury can cause permanent sequel are that bedevil a player’s career permanently. I don’t want to compare Jack and Diaby but poor LJW seemed destined to continually pick up fitness and form- sapping injuries. Ideally he should stay at home in the summer and have a full pre- season to build up his fitness but it won’t be possible if Woy picks him for Brazil and it’s hard to begrudge a lad of his age a World Cup. But Arsenal’s injury curse is getting way beyond a joke
Sorry I meant prospect but my iPad clearly using modern football language said project!
His recent run of injuries is very disappointing. In truth, it would be better for him in the long run not to go on that Fools’ Errand to Brazil.

Trying to look on the positive side of the latest arsenal injury news to jack and I guess the upcoming weeks will be the greatest test of this squad and their determination and desire to compete at the highest level as a group.
Those regularly used words ‘team’ and ‘squad’ now take on significant meaning as this is the time when the team and the squad are needed the most.
It will also be a great test of the manager and his ability to bring this now depleted squad together for one last push at three possible titles.
(understanding the CL is a big ask)
After watching the keane v viera documentary recently, it struck me just how aggressive, motivated and committed that arsenal squad of players were for each and every game of the season.
the desire to win and smash all in front of them was very noticeable.
🙂 Hwyl fawr, Ned.

o’zico?
NBN @ 56: In July the average temperature in Manaus is 27 degree Celsius and average humidity is 80% . Group D would take a significant toll on the already tired and bruised bodies of the players in the top league.
The Costa Rican players would be the most familiar with the tropical climate and may surprise the big three in that group…
Iechyd da, Otd.
Dr F, you could well be right. The sort of day when I would be forced to retire to a Mint Juleep and set the monks to fanning duties.

@Holic – Strugglin’ on mate cheers, you know me, no giving up.
@cba
2 of the Leyton Buzzards formed Modern Romance. They were both fucking awful on account them being huge Lily White Cunts supporters. Mind you did used to like a bit of the old ‘Saturday Night beneath the plastic palm trees, dancing to the rhythm of the ‘Guns of Navorone”, from time to time.

I still think there was something in my theory that players were holding back last Saturday, to avoid injury, so that they could give their all in Wednesday’s Internationals, thereby cementing their places in the World Cup squads.
Would Jack have played on for England, knowing he had a problem, had his spot in the Brazil bound side not been under scrutiny? He is very patriotic and is obviously desperate to be selected.
Sadly he has not only put his place in the England side in jeopardy but he has left us with yet another injury, which we can ill afford at this stage of the season. With his injury history, he should have left the field and saved himself for another day but the young always think they know best!
Looking forward to a great Cup tie tomorrow.
As always COYRs
Bejeesuz.
I’m descended from eejits. 😉
As everyone who meets me continually remind me.
Chucklin’ cba.
Well played.
I still dont think so its a disaster losing jack, 6 weeks is bad but what i mean is he was actually poor in the last few games and we needed to have dropped him, yet injury leading to it is sad.
I think jack may end up being a perma crock until and unless everything is truly ready,which i doubt will ever happen. He will continue to enthral and infuriate us but in the end his appearances maybe limited, i pray to god not but i think that is what will happen.
Even if the gods conspire i still think we will win, not its not an empty boast, i do feel we will, i still think we will have players stepping up and be counted when truly needed, arise Aaron and Mesut.
You’re fae Fife, zico. You’re therefore likely tae be a Pict. Nae a refugee fae Paddyland.
Never a good thing for a player to be injured, especially at a time of the Season when the full squad will need to be utilised. Although Jack’s current form was a worry, there is no doubt that he would still have had a major part to play in the next six weeks. A big miss.
Neither do I really buy the Diaby analogy made above by Ttg. Whilst the serious injury that kept Jack out of Football for over a year can of course lead to complications, and there have been some suggestions that Jack has, to an extent, been nursed along to avoid those complications, that wasn’t the case with Wednesday’s injury. It was a clear impact injury which could happen at any time, irrespective of how often he plays. Jack’s way of playing – close control and dribbling coupled with a fearlessness in the tackle – will always mean that he will invite that type of challenge and will probably suffer more of those type of injuries than most.
I have no idea if playing on could either cause or worsen the hairline fracture – I’ll leave that to the medics – but either way it was bloody stupid of Jack to have done so. Silly boy.
Guessing that Ox will fill the void until Aaron is fit to resume. It will be interesting to see how we line up tomorrow.
