AFC obsession

AFC obsession

Post by Victoria Concordia »

In order to lighten the mood after Tuesday night, I was reminded of a mate who was such an anorak about his Arsenal programme collection, that he would iron out the creases of his programme on a Sunday morning (cover with cloth first if ur gonna have a go!!). True devotion to the cause-anyone else got ridiculous obsessions/superstitions? Or does everyone iron their 'matchday magazine'!!!'

But I don't go as far as ironing them...

any picture i see in the newspaper relating to arsenal has to be cut out and put on some kind of wall. It started with just the posters from the programme on the wall in my room, now there allover the house.
