Suddenly, like a variation on a theme, to our right someone shouted "Manker!" (Man United fan apparently) and then scuffling broke out as the "Manker" was seized upon and then a full-scale punch up ensued. Jack stood in front with his arms wide apart shielding me from any harm. I kept jumping up to take a look over his shoulder at the fracas. Stewards were there in a jiff, quickly followed by police, the offending "Manker" was removed and put in his own block and it was all over as quickly as it started.
This was a welcome deviation from the game as by this time in the second half Arsenal were playing so badly with a defense so abysmal that they could just as well have cleared a space around the goal and guided the Manchester ball in for them. (This is the first symptom of football mania - you become an expert on things you know nothing about). All the excitement and hope disappeared and the morale of the Arsenal crowd and team just sank like a soufflé.
I was going to send you a message but you are not online
I'm pretty sure it's the song "Bye Bye Bye" by the boy band "N Sync."
Oh jeez.
I really wish you guys would use spoiler tags... my little brother was in the room when I scrolled down man.
Still an interesting pic.
