Oh Robbo, What Have You Done?

Just a few brief, and probably disjointed, notes on last nights internationals. It was a good night for Arsenal players generally. Thierry Henry and Robin Van Persie were both on target. What a frightening prospect faces the Watford defenders on Saturday.

It was not such a good night, of course, for England followers. Much flak is flying this morning about tactics, and even the manager himself. The fact remains that if Paul Robinson had done his job properly a point, however undeserved, could have been secured. Note to Tottenham fans who gleefully abused David Seaman.....have you ever heard the word karma? I think 'England's blunder one' could be in for some 'light-hearted banter' for the next few weeks.

The other story that really caught the eye yesterday was the Online Gooner's tale of the fan who has been banned for selling a spare ticket to a friend at face value. Obviously we have all benefitted from instances like this down the years, and on the face of it this is a real potential headache for all supporters, not just Arsenal fans. I would like to see the club respond because, knowing only one side of the incident, it would appear they are guilty of a massive over-reaction and a real public relations 'own-goal'.

Anyone got a spare for Reading away?
