Nine games to go

A few things to let you know about, before tomorrow's game.

1. The Rocket opens at midday, and will be showing the early game - West Ham vs Man Utd. Hopefully West Ham can do us a biiiig favour. We'll have the normal other stuff at The Rocket, like drinks, food, TV and music.

2. After the game, The Rocket is running a special, all-ticket event to remember David Rocastle. If you don't already have a ticket, we're sorry but they are all sold out. If you have a spare ticket for this event, we are sure there will be plenty of takers in the Rocket before the game! We will be selling raffle tickets pre game in The Rocket, for the chance to win some fantastic Arsenal related memorabilia, and to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital - so even if you aren't going to the post match event, you can still buy raffle tickets.

3. Talking of David Rocastle, you would have to have been on another planet to be unaware that yesterday was the tenth anniversary of his untimely death. We have had a big new banner made, which will be making its debut inside the stadium tomorrow. It looks a bit like this.

4. Finally, amidst all the doom and gloom, we are in a title race here. If a hero emerges like Freddie in 2002, we could well be champions in 2 months time. If we are to get anywhere close to that, the team needs your positive support. You may not like Almunia/Bendtner/Denilson/etc - but slating them over the next two months isn't going to make them play any better, or improve our title chances. Now is the time to play our part as SUPPORTERS.
