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.

Some years ago I was working near Nottingham when a bloke joined the IT dept. I used to chat to him a lot, but one day I discovered he was a Scum fan and I found it impossible to be friendly afterwards.
Today I was in a sports shop and was looking through some tops when I realised I was touching a Scum shirt. I immediately snatched my arm away and stepped back. My daughter told me to grow up, which got me thinking. I'm an intelligent grown up but I can't stop myself acting like a two year old.
lol - Many years ago, If I was in a place like Woolworths (or anywhere else that stocked the end of season video's (as was) ) and make sure that the Arsenal one's were prominent on display and the tiny totts ones well hidden at the back.

I particularly loved the whole "Mind the Gap" self inflicted gunshot wound. Christ how I loved that. We have one in work and the dizzy fucker kept saying it to me. I'd just roll the eyes and laugh dismissively.
After we finished above them for the 502nd season in a row I just walked past that geebag and smirked a nice "Hey - mind the gap" at them. Childish? Oh yeah. Fucking seriously enjoyable? Oh God yeah.
Also (and my missus was actually a bit appalled at this one! ) I laughed my ass off at that Scummer kid crying on the telly a few years back. I pissed myself laughing. Seriously, I could hardly breath I was laughing that hard. The missus said, "I know he's tottingham but he's just a kid!" I replied "He's fucking scum!!" a bit louder than I had intended. She looked differently at me after that I think.
Tottingham - the club that just gives and gives. To Arsenal fans.
Not Spurs related, but while working in a DVD distribution warehouse as a 3PL for Granada video, there was an order destined for the 'Manchester United Megastore, Sir Matt Busby Way, Manchester' ; the picking list said 'MUFC End of season video 2001-2002' x 100 copies, but there was a picking error and they received 100 copies of a different Granada title at the time, called 'DOUBLE WINNERS 2002' I think........
