Arsenal vs. Chelsea





Arsenal fans!
Dirty old Chelsea fans!



Blimmin heck! My boyfriend is a legend! Don't know how he did it, but he scored two tickets to the Arsenal vs. Chelsea game at the Emirates Stadium in Arsenal, London at the weekend. Blimmin awesome!

Was our first football game in England and the atmosphere was all I imagined. I learned a few new hand gestures I'll have to show you all when I see you next, but overall it was pretty well organised and tame.

Arsenal fans sit in a segregated area taking up about 70% of the stadium, and the poor Chelsea fans had about 30% of the stadium, but were given quite a bit of abuse from any surrounding seats. Because our seats were in the Arsenal area, we had no choice but to support them - if you wanted me to come out alive anyway.

We were so lucky with the weather. Clear blue sky and 20 degrees! Blimmin legendary!

We did look for you both on replays on BBC. Mistakenly thought you would be in the Chelsea seats. Must have been a nail biting match.
