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.

When I first came on this forum it was just to have a look around and maybe have a bit of craic ,Then I found myself getting more and more into the Arsenal. Eventually i found I was getting the jitters when we had a game,and now the stomach stars to churn before a game and the nails get shorter and shorter.
