Looking forward to the weekend game?

Catching the early morning flight tomorrow from Zurich to get to Luton around 11.15 if all is well and there's no fog at Luton, which is quite common at this time of year. Actually the flight isn't that early but it's all change for Easyjet schedules from Switzerland and the next match (Manchester United) will mean a 7.05 flight from Basel to Gatwick! Though I can't really complain (but it won't stop me) as the average flight cost from here to the UK is around £60-70 return. I'm sure there are many people in the UK who end up paying more to travel.
Based on the Sheffield United experience (and their possible players legal action) perhaps we as Arsenal fans should be sueing bloody FIFA for ruining our weekend with half the team injured whilst away on World Cup qualification duty. We know we haven't the strongest depth of squad and so this won't help though Everton haven't exactly been playing that brilliantly so far this season, even if it can all change!
Anyway let's hope for no flight delays, good beer, weather and a decent performance - you never know it just might happen.
