the stats at the bottom mean nothing. They are the people who have been caught out.. theres probably hundreds more that haven't been caught! Not good though.

millwall are the worst. no contest.
every team has idiot fans. just look at all the firms for proof.
i will say the 'pool fans vs rooney (i think?) was probably the worst ive heard about tho...in england anyway.

Previews for the main matches today..

Gameweek 24
Barclays Premier League:

Arsenal v Blackburn
Emirates Stadium
Kick Off: 1pm GMT

Current Form (Last Six Matches)
Arsenal: D W L L L D
Blackburn: D W L W D L

Last Meeting
Arsenal 0 Blackburn 0- 2 April 2011- Emirates Stadium

Position
Arsenal: 7th (W11, D4, L8, GD: 6, Points: 37)
Blackburn: 18th (W4, D6, L13, GD:-14, Points: 18)

Teams
Arsenal: Szczesny, Coquelin, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Song, Arteta, Rosicky, Walcott, Van Persie, Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Substitutes: Fabianski, Sagna, Ramsey, Bennayoun, Henry, Arshavin, Park.

Blackburn Rovers: Robinson, Lowe, Dann, Givet, Olsson, Petrovic, Dunn, Gamst, Nzonzi, Hoilett, Modeste
Substitutes: Bunn, Orr, Hanley, Rochina, Vukcevic, Goodwillie, Formica.

Players to Watch
Arsenal: Robin Van Persie- What more can be said about his goalscoring record in 2011?
Blackburn: Junior Hoilett- Promising talent who has drawn the attention from other Premier League clubs..

My views:
Despite Blackburn providing a slight resistance from the drop over the last month, i expect Arsenal to roll over the Rovers tonight. The Gunners will be looking to push themselves up the table and tonight is the perfect opportunity to do so, while breaking a 4 match streak that resulted in the Gunners' gaining the single point against Bolton midweek in a nil all draw. Blackburn have struggled without star striker Yakubu, who is available for the next match after sitting on the sidelines due to suspension for a couple of weeks. While Arsenal will be looking for a much needed win- Blackburn should be hungry to grab as many points as possible in order to avoid relegation into the Championship at the end of the season.

This could be a big match for either side, but i'm going Arsenal 4-1 and Robin Van Persie to score the first goal on 2 minutes

and things go from worse to horrible. Gael Givet is shown red and becomes another victim to the Premier League's strictest rule, two footed challenges aren't the best tackles to make in the PL, only if you want an early shower

Well Blackburn are in lots of trouble.
Down to 10 men with 3 others on yellows, with a rampant Van Persie on the loose.
It's 3-1 at half time.
