    Yes, apparently they are old mates from the ROI team and Long was suggesting it was a save for the cameras. On the "dummy" pass I'm afraid I'm still not convinced it wasn't a complete miskick! If he meant it it was a thing of beauty and genius, though.

    I'm sure he meant it, because the foot he dummied with wasn't even shaped properly...never meant to hit the ball, but purely to distract.

    Let's hope arsenal put out a crap team.

    I wouldn't even expect them to be that strong. Particularly in defence.

    How many tickets will Saints get? I've booked time off work in anticipation of getting a ticket.

    A mate at work who is an arsenal season ticket holder says we could get 6,000.....
    Will we sell all them if it is? I wouldn't mind going...

    Last 2 seasons prices have been very reasonable for Arsenal away in the league - so hopefully even cheaper for the Cup?!

    In the past Arsenal have been known to sell League cup tickets for £10 (someone on the Arsenal forum also mentioned it). As its a premier league vs premier league tie I'd expect them to be a little higher than that so £20 perhaps? At that price I'd expect us to take around 2/3000, at a tenner we could easily take 4000.

    OK, on the ROI connection. I like it that Long plays with a smile as well.
    I agree with Fran, he meant it alright. Even his balance was such that he was fine. If he'd have meant to hit it with his right foot he would have been badly crossed up having not connected. He just did the dummy really, really well.

    Well done...you didn't say, babysit your kids. Hate it when men say that...mothers don't 'babysit' their own children, so fathers shouldn't either #soapbox

    Diego Costa should have been sent off, disgraceful behaviour on a football pitch. He has a real nasty streak that's for sure.

    There are so many holes through the middle and infront of the Chelsea defence. Hope Ron is watching.

    Seems like he's taken over the pantomime villain role from Suarez.
