And onto the lack of trophies for them

[@Vojkan2000]

Yes but they got relegated that season and never came back and they are always mid table in championship or at the bottom and hadnt challenged the playoffs at all...

[@daphnethornton4829]

That's what can happen when you lose such a good squad and the funding that's more in the premiership. Look at teams like Leeds etc. The championship reads like a past premiership table. No one club has any rights to stay in the premiership or to get back in. The championship is a tough division.

[@toppo79]

It's sad when clubs as small as fulham are getting more tv coverage than many bigger championship clubs the london bias is sad. My club birmingham will always be bigger than the like of fulham qpr or brentford

On my way home I had to pass through New Street Station to get the train back to London. About 400 zulus came through the station that day shouting “Zulus, zulus”.

Last minute of the game it looked like it was going ET so went for a loo break, suddenly heard screaming downstairs, got out and saw my uncle climbing up the stairs and gave me that look, that moment then my heart sank to the floor. Devastated. Even though we won the Cup since, that day will still haunt me forever. We got stick from all corners after that: media, pundits, opposition fans, friends, family etc. I didn't wanna even go to school the next day (I live in Tottenham). Promised myself I wouldn't watch this back until we win a trophy again but yh this was painful for all Arsenal fans at the time because we HAD to end the drought :(
