To be honest I thought we'd done that one already, but checking back it appears I'm wrong. Another idea we've got on the table is 12 Arsenal Teenagers - players who have made a significant impression at the Club before they turned 20. Names that come to mind, in chronological order, are Bastin, Kenn...

Gooner Calendar

As some of you will know, every year The Gooner gives away a calendar in an issue around Christmas. Last year it's theme was 12 Golden Highbury Memories. We're struggling a bit this year to come up with a theme for the 2007 calendar, so wondered whether anyone out there could help. There's a free su...

OK - hands up. I was one of said victims. Do I regret it? Not really, although I regret not having got one of the lots that I really wanted such as one of the brass cannons or one of the framed photos from the 30's but they all went for £1000 plus, so instead I picked up a photo of Marc Overmars sc...

First Game

Arsenal v Leeds, January 1977, although for some reason I had always thought it was 76 until recently. 1-1 draw with Supermac getting our goal.

The Last Day

Sunday was something else wasn't it? Talk about going through all the emotions. Thank goodness it turned out for the best. If anyone has any decent pictures that they took on the last day at Highbury, please send them to The Gooner - thegoonerfanzine@btinternet.com - and we'll post the best ones to ...
