The Carling Cup just ended and overwhelming favorites Arsenal, LOST! Well I guess Birmingham won on a cheap Martins goal in the 89th. Either way Arsenal again shot themselves in the foot and failed to end their title drought. One bright spot for Arsenal was my BOI, RvP who scored a beauty of a volley in the first half to level the score. Then he got hurt... like always... Robin! Stop getting hurt! Anyways, not trophies for Arsenal. The verb-age Arsenal'D is going to become very popular in the future.
Birmingham stuck to a game plan and lady luck fell their way. They had a CLEAR penalty denied of them in the first 3 minutes of the game, but they didn't hang their heads. Instead they got the ball to their BIG man Zigic who put them ahead. Then shoddy Arsenal defense and poor goalie play (what else is new for the Goonars?) resulted in Birmingham hoisting the trophy! OH man! I am watching it now and its beautiful. I don't care how this affects Liverpool's chances of playing in Europe next season. This is just too good. Good for Brum and good for their manager, Alex McLeish.
