Welcome to the FA Cup third round clash between Arsenal and Hull City at the Emirates, brought to you by Arsenal’s Official Car And Van Rental Partner Europcar.
It’s the most magical weekend in English football and fortune has brought these two sides together at the first opportunity since their memorable meeting in last year’s final, where Arsene Wenger’s men came from two goals down to claim their first piece of silverware for nine years.
The Gunners have enjoyed a strong run of form of late and should enter the tie full of confidence, especially with Aaron Ramsey close to full fitness and Mesut Ozil nearing a return to action.
Mohamed Diame, Michael Dawson and Robert Snodgrass remain long-term absentees for Steve Bruce’s Hull, whose patchy Premier League form has left them hovering just above the relegation zone at the turn of the new calendar year.

3 Nil game over , feel sorry for travelling fans . That’s the cup for you !
Bbc bias on pundits
Ex hull an Newcastle players ?
Why no keown ?
Start fast please Arsenal. Let’s get on the front foot from the start.
COYG
COYG!!!!!
JHhmmmmmmmmm
Unlucky Sanchez…
Get in there!
Yes Per…
YESSSS!!! BFGGGG
All the tweets around the world are like – Sanchez is in the red zone, how come he is playing [and they are just crossing their greasy fat fingers in hope that he’d get injured for sure].
Fuckin media haters.
Why is it, when they talk about our injury list, they never mention contact injuries?
Injury list, year on year, due to “bad luck”. Come on Keown!
Keown’s reading a script words you cannot say in a contract
Watching the game on TV in Dahanu India, & the commentator says that the spectators are all new as they are not season ticket holders. This is what these so called experts publicise as the price of Arsenal tickets. They do not realise that the season ticket includes first 8 FA cup & Champions League home ties.
Arsenal playing tiki taki & pissing the pundits off. 1-0 with a BFG goal. I’m glad my 0-3 nightmare was wrong.
Keown is a broken man – knew the BBC would eventually break him.
That ticket price is valid for Arsenal as other clubs do not win the 4th place trophy (just to clarify for the aaa).
Menace the 2 goals are coming
Who gives a shit about Ince talk about the game!!
Need to take our chances…
That was a good tackle WTF?
The ref is beginning to look suspect.
Va Cong = good in the Laws but not the PGMO version!!
Our pace is slipping.
Joel… just keep calm kid !
What has happened to Campbell – he’s afraid of scoring!!
Commentary is so annoying Hull have so many injuries their still in it Arsenal look stale not sign of champions grinding a win
Think he changed his mind at the last moment and from going for teh shot, went for the pass.
Arsenal pressure its the aaa
difference being starter and bench player
ohhhhhhhhhh Theo!
Let’s go Theo ! Another through ball like this and he scores. Just need to get back the mojo.
Theo playing off the shoulder of defenders = world’s most dangerous weapon.
thats a penalty on sanchez right if the other one was a foul lol
Theo off, Ox on.
Just tuned in from work to see the the “game management” in all it’s glory.
Looks like the esteemed official has decided that The Arsenal a no longer allowed to tackle! So subtle 😉
Who does he think he is kidding?
Hows that not a yellow?!?
PGMO Rules Football 🙂
Almost reminds me of the FA Cup Final!
Campbell just needs to relax … man ! Everything is just too tense. Relax kiddo !
Well they haven’t played much some of them!
The offical appears to be trying his darnedest to keep hull in the game? How else do explain such partisan transparent bungling?
Well. Looks like the Arsenal just have to beat fourteen. At home. Again. Won’t be the first time.
Come on you gunners!
how was that a yellow?!?!?!?
The Ref is getting really silly now.
There have been a couple of dodgy decisions but not that many. Think the ref has been pretty good but Alexis needs protecting from Hull players.
Saying that, booking Alexis for being fouled is stupid.
Pathetic
Talking shit again the poodits
come on Arsenal, kill this game off…
how Kenneth? we are getting stopped when Hull are obstructing
Not wanting to jinx in any way but our defense / defensive midfield didn’t afford Hull more than 2.5 passes. Great work !
Couldve/shouldve been 3 or even 4 nil by now.
Yeah!!!
‘Ave it!
ooooooohhhhhh yeeeessssss redddd zonnnne my fuckin asssss !!!! Die haters.
like that!!!!!!get in thheeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeee!!!!!!
Sanchezzzzzzzzzzzzz
Come on akpom!!
Almost there Menace, Akpom to score the third!!!
Sanchez.
Signed whilst the Groaners were groaing and Vengarggggh was frolicking on the beach in his swimwear,
Replaced by: Akpom! One to watch.
Looks like Arsenal are a club on the up to me 🙂
Thought that was a red…
phew! ref not on full cunt mode
sorry about the language
Have to say, the Coq booking was a yellow all day long but that said, one of their defenders did that a few minutes ago to block a shot and we didn’t even get a free kick.
Coq blocking.
Sorry, just had to write that. 😀
hahaha
well played lads!!COYG!!
Well done Gunners
The differential is not only with the PGMO representative (I think we can agree he’s not really a referee):
Note that the bbc commentators praise one team for making risky or marginal tackles but criticise the other! As Jamie Redknapp would say, “literally” partisan plunditry. Blatant!
–
Well played The Arsenal.
Not a bad game & the crow was reasonable. Cannot pick on his mistakes.
Alan Shearer on, TV off #twat
Correction: don’t think the offical today was apart of the PGMO list? If not then I guess he was auditioning for The House of Riley.
Well my opinion was only based on that latter period of the game I saw where the offical appeared overly sympathetic to the losing team.
So I’m happy to agree with Menace! 🙂
The match report is already on line. Extra extra read all about it !!! 🙂
Untold Arsenal the fastest match reporters in the world
The Coq Blocker won 100% of his tackles tonight. OH YEAH.
wow cooool
