Caption competition winner No 93
Ray Parlour and Freddie Ljungberg celebrate Arsenal's FA Cup triumph in style.
But who came up with a caption worthy of the occasion? Parlour and Ljungberg provided two moments of magic in an otherwise disappointing final to leave the Gunners on the brink of the double. So it was entirely right that "Romford Ray" and his pal Freddie should get stuck into the bubbly first. Congratulations to Rhys Jagger in Wales, who came up with this little gem: Freddie is practicing winding up Argentineans, whilst Ray is practicing for his summer holidays. Well done Rhys, your goodie bag is in the post.
