Good..hope that Hull players will calm down a bit after this..sked our players get injured..

finally... ref taking control of the game.

our team also needs to calm down.... not to be overconfident.

Argh I had hoped we would retake the lead before half time.

the matchball is for the lace up campaign. the red lines are laces tht covered the ball.

according to the commentator, it's a one off ball used in support of some AIDS awareness program or something to that effect...

yea now hull will return with a new plan for a 10-man team. bendtner has been really quiet, eboue has seen lots of action. the right flank is very bbusy today. how about introducing walcott there and eboue dropping a bit

not only was that idiot offside, the penalty was TERRIBLY soft!!!!

i think in the second half hull will play full defensive mode.. lol

1st half over...

overall the team looked a bit jittery and the flow seems disrupted by hull physical play. the penalty really soft and i thought it was offside. ref had some interesting decision early on but really appreciate it when he started to take control towards the end of the half. Boateng gone... Hull will be all men behind the ball in the 2nd half. time to unleash walcott.

Hull players are going all out to play gung ho with us. The red card would teach them a lesson. Penalty was totally undeserved and hopefully we can bounce back.

Also a legit PK claim for Clichy.... no?

ya that was a foul... but watever.. things like this im used to it in arsenal games.. lol

i think clichy and bendtner have some shout for penalty. haih...

anyway, hopeful for a more entertaining 2nd half. the pitch is atrocious.

Nah no pen there.

Nasty football by Hull. Hope they're relegated.

yeah man... shit refeering has cost us games before. i really hope this won't.

hull are trying to use rough house tactics to break the arsenal rhythm. again, i cannot understand how punks like mendy and fagan are still in the match without a yellow card. those fellas are just fouling our players time and again. hesselink was offside before the foul and even then the penalty was absolute crap. to add insult to injury, later on, bendtner gets a yellow card when it was boateng to struck him. boateng should've received a straight RED card for striking another player. clichy gets tackled in the box, no penalty. bendtner gets choke slammed to the ground, no penalty. he may have sent off boateng (way too late for me), but the referee has been absolute rubbish besides that.

having ranted about hull and the ref, arsenal aren't as fluid today as well. not really happening for us. i think walcott would be a great player to bring on and terrorise the 10 men, wear them down so that we can bang in as many goals as possible and thoroughly punish their sorry @$$e$.

Very bad officiating from the referees . Walcott please go on and crush them .

+100

i would've agreed had the stupid referee not given the penalty against campbell. if campbell's challenge was a penalty, the tackle on clichy is a stone walled penalty.
