First home game is a distant memory but I think it was 1966/67 season v West Brom . We lost 2-3 . My dad used to live in Stoke Newington near Clissold Pk before moving to Walthamstow and went to Highbury quite a bit so took me there for my first game rather than Orient who were alot closer to home .
We stood on the open terrace Clock End, though in those days the younger boys were ushered down to the front for a better view . Magic .

April 2009, 2-0 at home against Middlesbrough. Both goals scored by Fabregas. I've never seen a game at Highbury and I'm getting more and more disappointed about that as time goes by.

My first away game: AZ Alkmaar in October 2009, so that was almost a home game for me. Since then I've also been to Arsenal v Fulham (May 2010) and Barcelona away this year. My next game is KÃ¶ln away.
