Eight minutes into an experience that was supposed to be interesting, and we began to see a cause to lose hope. My God! after going this far, to lose again? to hull city? mehn! matter for too cast. I could not watch the match because of other engagements, but my eyes were glued to goal.com expecting miracle to happen. I began all those positive confessions that look like faith ( We cannot lose, we will equalize etc). The thought of Arsenal not winning the cup, was just something I was not ready to think about.
But Alas! it was a double blast for me. A wonderful prayer section in the retreat and an FA Cup to celebrate afterwards. We had to wait 9 years, not 9 months oh...haba. But all the same, we are no more trophy-less and that is what counts. The passion, expectation and joy in the players, were replicated in the hearts of the fans, little wonder the main message was " thanks to our fans".
Wittingly, I will like to point out that we could use a devote christian arsenal fan to explain the benefit of patience or long suffering. Cos, in the midst of the talks, abuses, cartoons etc; we remain steadfast! knowing that all will be well.
