Thierry sends a message to the early leavers

TH14: Nice timing


Thierry Henry's goal against United was timed specifically for all those people I saw leaving the biggest and most tense game of the season so far with as much as five minutes to go.

I hope you all enjoyed the deafening roar from outside the stadium, and heard the wonderful sound of 55,000 people singing "You're not singing anymore."

More seriously, because I know this has been talked about a lot before, I paid a huge amount of money for my lower north stand season ticket and, to be honest, that match made the money worthwhile.

If I'd gone and missed that goal, and the subsequent 15 stone bloke who ran down the aisle and jumped into my arms (which I certainly didn't pay £900 for) then I can't imagine how terrible I'd have felt and how I'd wasted my money.

But there we go - thanks Thierry, a goal for all the people who stay to the end!
