As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
If you want to try and upload those pics here's the step (sorry) step guide;
1. Upload your pic to your PC.
2. Register with http://www.photobucket.com
3. Upload your pics to your album on that site.
4. Copy and paste the IMG code as detailed under each pic into the body of your message on here.
Here's one I did earlier!!
Me and the boys (and our sadly deceased and terribly missed mate Trish) in Paris before the final.
Anyway, you might note that the full size photo throws the thread off a bit but you can resize easily on photobucket before you link to the photo.
If this doesn't work for you I will do it Monday or Tuesday, no problem.

Bloody awful business this dying lark, especially when they're still young.
Cheers mate. It was a tragedy. March last year, just a month before her 34th birthday, Trish fell down a flight of stairs and suffered massive head injuries. They switched her off in the hospital a few days later.
We did a tribute on here and laid flowers at the stadium last season. Trish travelled over every season. She loved the Gooners and whenever we are over we have a quiet drink or two in her honour before the full on beering starts. A lovely girl and a good mate.
Fucking hell. The very same thing happened to my best mates wife. She only fell down six steps at home! She was 39.
My mate is a sergeant in the plods and he was visiting family in Somerset when it happened. She was found by her 10 year old daughter in the morning. The local plod shop said he was lucky not to be at home as he would probably have been arrested for murder! Like you need to hear that when you've just lost your wife.
The strangest thing is that she had recently (within the previous year) taken out life insurance on herself as both her mother and grandmother died before they were forty as a result of accidents
Dear God. The poor bloke. That is f*cking terrible. Just goes to show how fickle fate is, mate. I don't even begin to know how someone would deal with a loss like that.
As for the local plod, I have a good mate over their in the Met and he told me that before too; they ALWAYS look at the husband first in cases like that.
Talking of strange stuff; Trish's dad died 18 months before she did, he fell down a flight of stairs at work and also died from head injuries received. F*cking spooky...
Just makes me all the more thankful for what I have and for my wife and kids' health.
WHEN I SAW THE THREAD HEADLINE I THOUGHT THAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE LATE-90's POP COMBO AND WAS GOING TO SAY THAT I KNEW THE FIT BIRD SUPPORTED ARSENAL BUT DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE ALL GOONERS AND READERS OF THE FORUM!!
THEN I THOUGHT I MIGHT ALTERNATIVELY BE CONFRONTED WITH A STATEMENT SAYING SOMETHING LIKE THE FOLLOWING:
YOU WERE A SHIT POP GROUP WHO ONLY APPEALED TO UNDER 11's THAT HAPPENED ALSO TO BE TONE-DEAF!! EVERYONE IS GLAD YOU SPLIT UP BECAUSE IT SPARED US THE EMBARRASSMENT OF HAVING TO EXPLAIN TO THOSE OF OUR KIDS NOT SUFFERING FROM A HEARING IMPAIRMENT WHAT ALL THAT SCREECHING NOISE WAS!! AND WHAT THE FECK WAS THAT 'H' ALL ABOUT? WHY DOESN'T HE HAVE THE COURAGE OF HIS CONVICTIONS AND JUST ADMIT HE'S GAY RATHER THAN PRETENDING HE'S STRAIGHT AND AVAILABLE? AS FOR THAT ESSEX BIRD WITH THE RASPY VOICE THAT LOOKED LIKE FAT PAT FROM EASTENDERS......
OR SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES. SEEMS I WAS VERY, VERY WRONG.
