Alex James was the guy with the ridiculously long shorts
I think he played alongside Bastin and Hapgood

Radford can inform you that Alex James was a gifted player who was a mainstay in the 30's. a trickey player who was also a bit of a lad about town as well.
a true Arsenal legend

They do look insanely good.
Is that Rocastle? Glad to see him up there.
Few points... they should have got seaman pre-ponytail.... ponytailed seaman = not very good seaman.
And surely the stairwells will be really dark now that the light has been blocked by the giant murals?

Lol, I was just about to ask if these are new. When I did the tour (about two years ago) they just had normal seats there.
