1. Riders of the night

2. Stevie Boulds song, (always made me laugh the words were so stupid)

3. Running round to Tottenham

Although there are many old school songs about Tottenham that could also be up there. You know the ones!

Who remembers for one season only.................Green Greens the new colur for me
Green is the turf at wemberlee,
and that is where my arsenal will be
in the FA Cup in 83

Always thought 20000 in the NB singing"You're just a greedy *word censored*, Stapleton" was fucking great as a 12 year old.

And the same number singing to the away fans "You're gonna get your fucking heads kicked in". Fucking great when sung by that many.

I certainly do try to picture the posters on here....the image of Goonersid chewing drinks cans to relieve his anger, Rebel with an Intel Processor Chip inside his skull so he can think his thoughts which upload automatically to keep up the post count, and of course the thought of Mikey, typing with one hand, the other punching a hole in the wall at the very thought of the name "Wenger"!"

I love the Fast Show and the Charles Charlie Charles sketch, but I am afraid I have to disappoint.
I am an ale and Whisky drinker, who works in residential property management. Typing my rambles from an MFI style wooden desk, usually in a T shirt and tracksuit bottoms with a cup of tea to hand.

And your good self..., and anyone else reading?
I normally post from my desk, Victorian wraparound affair, with a fire going next to it and a massive bookshelf behind it. So basically as JFG imagined Quartz.

Mikey B does indeed type with one hand, but that's because he is usually 'servicing' DUFFMAN with the other.

The new LP from K-Tel, "Carry on up the Arse - memories of a misspent youth", including such timeless classics as; 'It im on the ead, it im on the ead, it im on the ead with a baseball bat, oh yeh' and the ever welcoming 'You're goin ome in a London ambulance' and the wry satire of 'he's got a malteser on his head' (for any poor sod with the faintest resemblance to Dion Dublin).

Includes bonus tracks from Joe's exile in the Medway Towns including; 'Celery, celery.... if she don't cum I'll tickle her bum with a stick of celery' and during the brief flitation with Championship football, 'Where were you when we were shit?'

For me you need good tunes and a special moment or player so:
1) We love you Freddie (for his one brilliant season)
2) Walkin in a Bergkamp wonderland (with thanks the our Lord for sending his only son to play football for us)
3) Good old Arsenal (our first Double and for me Mr.Arsenal George Armstrong

[quote="This Is The Daybreak"]Good Old Arsenal is always my favourite. Hairs on the back of the neck if sung at the write moment and not sung at break neck speed. Remember singing it to myself once when I was a nipper when we were drawing 0-0 with Sheffield Wednesday at home in about 1993 or 1994. I sung it to myself and whilst I was doing it Ian Wright popped up with a goal out of nothing to give us a 1-0 victory. At the time I firmly believed it was because I was singing that song. :barscarf:

quote]

Quality I remember us being 2-0 up away at Blackburn, them getting back to 2-2 after we had a man sent off and me pacing my kitchen saying "come on Arsenal, come on Arsenal" and Bergkamp popped up with a vital winner (I claimed an assist) :D

1) As someone mentioned earlier, the simple 1970s CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CALP ARSENAL which was sometimes started and accompanied by one of those air horn thingys. At the CC Final this year on the upper level there were a few renditions which started with someone banging their seat!!

2) We're the North Bank/Clock End Highbury alternate singing was brilliant when it was loud at both ends

3) Good old Arsenal
