Following the game please bring this email with you to the side of the stage where you will be met by either myself of Sue Campbell, Head of Supporter Services.

You wouldn't believe it if I told you!!

Oh ok - the big question that got me in is;

*assumes journalistic voice*

"Kenny, was John Devine pure shite or was it exagerated by the media? Thank you."

Will watch out for you Alan and hope you are kidding on that question. Too young to remember John Devine. Think the only time I saw Kenny Samson play was Graham Rix's testimonial.

Kenny is a legend. 8)

Ok, the real question was extremely vanilla;

Who was the greatest Arsenal player you played with and why?

I'd never disrespect a legend. Quite looking forward to it actually! 8)

HE WAS A BIT LIKE A YOUNG LEE DIXON, BUT NOT AS GOOD GOING FORWARD AND WITHOUT THE DEFENSIVE ABILITY THAT DICKO HAD. MIND YOU, HE DIDN'T GET THE BENEFIT OF YEARS OF GEORGE GRAHAM'S COACHING.

THOUGHT HE WOULD END UP A GOOD PLAYER FOR US BUT DIDN'T QUITE MAKE A CAREER AT ARSENAL. ANYONE ELSE REMEMBER JOHN DEVINE AND THINK THEY KNOW WHY HE DIDN'T CUT IT? :? :lol: :wink:
