#ARSCFC

The day the chavs from Chelsea come to town, or at least to the Emirates.

After a less than spectacular start to the season we entertain the former billionaire toy in Chelsea. From spending hundreds of millions on players to win trophies they seem to have been reluctant recently to spend. Shame. 

They are still fourth in the table where we are twelfth.  With games against Everton and Bournemouth only drawn the idea of entertaining Chavs today and Manchester United on New Year's Day is daunting.

All made worse as getting to the game today as there is no High Speed service to London. The usual 57 minute journey will be 1h 42m on slow train. Then a longer two tube trip to Arsenal.

As a treat I booked first class. With Railcard discount  only a few quid more than having to rub shoulders with the hoypolloy. Before anyone comments, I am joking...



So here we are.  Lost again. The high spots were Aubameyang scoring another league goal, plus a higher rate fighting spirit.

1-0 until the last ten minutes. Firstly referee bottled sending Jorginho off with a second yellow card, then he scores the equaliser. A goalkeeping error and he bundled it in. Then Windmill Arms Tammy scored the winner.

A better showing but individual mistakes allied with poor refereeing led to defeat.
