Stand Up If You Hate ManU, Stand Up

I know that Shona has already written a story on this one, but it deserves two stories because it was just such a sweet day. ManUtd came into this match with only two losses this season and one of those was to Arsenal at Old Crapford. Now we just handed them their third loss and let everyone get a little closer to them in the table. Actually Chelsea lost as well to Liverpool so they won't be gaining anything :)

The first half was pretty intense ending 0-0 and not really allowing many opportunities to score. Arsenal really weren't passing well and getting things together. It certainly was a back and forth evenly matched match until the second half.

When Shrek scored on that pass across the middle, I though we were done. Watching him celebrate just devastated me. I hate that little pecker. At that point I was just sitting there just thinking how much more of an ulcer can Arsenal give me.

It made a world of difference when we brought Robin van Persie on late in the match. With 7 minutes left on a ball slotted across RvP stuck it in the back of the net. My friend Neil was over and scared the shit out of my daughter Madeline and we started jumping around and yelling. She started to scream her head off and had to go in the other room.

Now with two minutes left when Eboue sent that cross in to Henry's head and right in the back of the net. We went nuts -- it was just so amazing to see us finally stick it to ManU. Madeline fortunately was in the other room or she may have been scarred for life.

What a sweet victory. Now we need to keep that going and finish off the final 14 matched strong and maybe we can get outselves in the top two if not first.

Come on Arsenal!
