We disrespect it so much that nobody has won it more times. They kept saying it about Wenger but they gave up after his 7th success.

From physio to Double winning Manager in 1970/71.

At the business end of the season Bertie asked the players to put Arsenal ahead of everything else.

I think Mikel might be doing the same. 8 cup finals to go!

Last night’s victory caused a bit of a stir amongst the snowflakes

Maybe a little bit of George Graham sprinkled in amongst some lovely football played this season is not a bad thing!

Arsenal FC 25/26

44 games - 3 losses

93 goals scored

But let’s go with the narrative of Arsenal being anti football heretics

Fuck off😂😂😂

*Pardew did not win a major trophy as a player/manager in a 40 year career. Maybe he is not the best qualified to know what it takes

*Bitter prick

Matchday, another monumental challenge for Mikel to steer us through. He’s a great young manager, this book is a great read btw.

Everton won as well just to rub it in😂

Hope Robertson is the earliest Gunner I know of with first hand accounts of his brief tenure in Woolwich. He joined in Sept 1889.

He wrote his Chronicles in 1910 from which this book is formed. An entertaining read.

He later won the 1st Division title with Everton.

Younger people may not remember Tony Benn, but his speech in 1998 has as much resonance today as it did then.

Alan Smith, a great Gunner!

Vilified by some for his commentary, let that not detract from his on field antics

115 goals

Golden boots and……..

That glancing header, that smudged forehead

Brilliant stuff mate, I was 12 when he signed, luckily living in London getting taken to every home game by my uncle. I have great memories of Supermac, I was at the 5-3 home game v UFC when he bagged a hat trick. UTG!🔴⚪️🔴⚪️

Supermac!

One of the best strikers ever to play for the Gunners, cruelly his career was cut short with a knee injury just 2 years after he signed.

A great return of 57 goals in 107 competitive games

I truly think he would have broken Cliff Bastin’s scoring record if he’d stayed fit.

Just received my royalties for various book sales over the last year

I was therefore delighted, to send another lump sum to the Arsenal Foundation
for my sales of Welcome to the Goonerverse.

£1.50 from each sale goes to our club’s charity. You can still buy👇
