That Arsenal were playing Huddersfield in the Carling (known then as the League) Cup). It was one of those great games which not only saw Ian Wright score a hat-trick (his fifth to be precise), but saw the Arsenal win 5-0.
Tonight the Arsenal were playing in the Carling Cup and like the game seventeen years ago five goals were scored. No hat-tricks and no Ian Wright, but the win was still sweet as it was over the Arsenal's closest neighbours and greatest rivals - Tottenham Hotspur!
Having made my first communion at Highbury (Clock End, right of goal( at the age of five, I have to say that I go off to bed convinced that God truly does answer prayer :)
Hallelujah!
(apologies to non-footballing types (and spuds fans)
