Arsenal Take On Underdog Lincoln In Emirates FA Cup: Follow The Match Build Up On These Twitter Hashtags

For some reason, today's Arsenal Emirates FA Cup quarter final against Lincoln City FC brings back memories of that 2011 Football League(Carling)Cup final against Birmingham. Maybe it's because we needed to win as badly as we do today. Maybe because, like that Wembley night,  we've lately been shooting ourselves in the foot with perilous defending. Maybe it's because us gooners know the haters are watching waiting to have a dig at our beloved Arsenal once again.

Maybe it is because once gain Arsenal fans are divided over the state of the club and its future(specifically Wenger's future) and there is a real risk that toxicity at the Emirates today will jeopardize our chances of progressing further in the FA Cup: Our last hope of silverware this season.

As is the norm for us International fans, social media offers the best chance of getting close to the action. We scroll the internet in search of that other perspective on things, that backstage access and extra angle view that we desperately crave for but can't access.

#TheScoreKE

Kenyan Arsenal fans are familiar with Gooner Carol Radull and the boys on Kenya's top sports talk show on Kiss 100. For updates on football scores across the world and talk on just about anything relevant in sports today, it's a good first stop. ION these guys and girl should consider doing a podcast.

Is @Alexis_Sanchez really really passionate or really really spoilt? Need your thoughts guys. Use hashtag #TheScoreKE

#AFC

This is an evergreen hashtag for all things Arsenal all the time, anytime. The downside is that it's cross use with other football clubs with similar abbreviations to AFC

Let's try this again... my team for the game, we can't underestimate the FA Cup but certainly can't go full strength #AFC #COYG #AFCvLCFC pic.twitter.com/HqaN0AW79b
