This is a selection of the both jokes from Monday’s much-anticipated FA Cup fifth round tie between non-league Sutton United and Arsenal.
Arsène Wenger’s Premier League side disappointingly managed a reasonably comfortable 0-2 win at the 5k-seater Gander Green Lane ground.
But there were lots of talking points from a severely-milked day to remember covered by the BBC as cup fever swept the nation.
These are the best jokes from Sutton vs Arsenal in the FA Cup fifth round:

Looking forward to several renditions of 'we support our local team' from people who've never been to a Sutton game before tonight.

Wenger says he's worried about the state of Sutton's pitch ahead of tonight's game.
Arsene, you've got 99 problems, but a pitch ain't one.

I was dubious about Sutton v Arsenal. Yes, Chris was a great striker in his day, but taking on a whole team singlehanded? No. Not for me.

Can't wait to see how the team of plucky part-timers get on in the Cup tonight. Also looking forward to watching Sutton United.

Eastmond got a decent reception from Arsenal fans as he walked out onto the 3G pitch. He would've got a better reception if it was 4G though
