Doubt we'll see Salopian again after that poor effort he'll be 'wounded' at such a 'gash' attempt. Chubby on the other hand was just hanging on to his coat-tails for validation purposes, as a Braddie (is that the term?) he needs his Man Utd fake supporters badge re-newed every so often so some footie related worthiness adds a little to his case. :D

Growing up south of the river makes Arsenal the natural choice, I guess.

As a 6 year old stamp collector (M+D signed me up for first day covers) finding my way into football, i discovered a first day cover celebrating Arsenal winning the Fairs cup exactly a year before i was born. Destiny. Still got it. And you?
Anyone else care to share the reason for their lifelong devotion?

I was gonna take the piss about a stamp collector's spiritual home obviously being in Islington but that's quite a nice story.
For me it was this man slapping down a (to me at least) mythical Barca side.

Even I think the man is a t!t, but as you say, he was excellent on the pitch.
Anyway, you told me and Salopian just before the Celtic game tonight that you thought Liam Brady was a c___ .

I met him in the lift at Holloway Road station a stone's throw from the Emirates. I told him i was a lifelong Arsenal fan, all the spiel about the stamps and that finally i thought he was a ____. I thought he was going to set his whippets on me or maybe do a bad job of the crazy paving at our country pile, fair play to the ____ he took it quite well for an Irishman. To be sure.

You mean he didn't strip down to his trackies and trainers before offering you out, like pwopah Pikeys in Nikes ?

Hei

Is this the ChubbyP/MagicJ chirp-a-thon or can anyone join in.

I actually spent my formative years as a Celtic fan even though I couldn't stand Weegies. This was due to (big)family influences. Anyway I managed to bag a couple of tickets to the Dundee Utd/Dundee League Cup Final in 81. I had already seen Utd a couple of times and a few of my Dundee supporting mates were getting on my t*ts with their superior historical supremacy bullsh*t. So naturally I wanted a Utd win. It was a cracking game played at Dens Park because the Weegies didn't want two sets of Dundee pikeys invading the west. Utd won 3-0 and the worm turned. After the game me and a mate bought two bottles of strongbow and went to the local ice-rink to celebrate (don't ask me why). On the way home we got jumped by a bunch of Superior Historical Supremacists who were a bit miffed. They got a hold of my mate, put his arm through a chain link fence then jumped on it causing it to snap (very fooking sore). I got off lightly with a black eye and some superficial rib damage. Needless to say we were hooked on the terrors after this.

Jim McLean was bigger than Cloughie and the grumpiest b*stard that ever lived. He once fined the entire Utd team after winning 6-0 for not trying hard enough.

:shock:

Mark "Les" Hughes is still a tender 45. And I'm afraid our red brothers now think he's somewhat of a c***.

We Berts, however, believe he is going to lead us to great fame and glory.

F365 article about pwopah nawty cockernee hardmen.

Work. Same old, same old. A warrior like me should not be caged. And definitely not as a Waste Management Support Co-ordinator in Lewisham Council. Phone rings. Pick it up.

"Ooo are ya? Ooo are ya? Ooo are ya?" I shout.

"Barry," says the voice. "It's Mr Stevens. Now what did we say about answering the phone in accordance with the guidelines laid down by HR in consultation with designated union representatives?"

"Sorry, Mr Stevens," I say.

"That's better Barry. Now can you please arrange for a member of the cleaning personnel team to go down to the lobby and change the waste paper basket on front desk?"

"Millwall! Millwall! Millwall!" I shout.

"No Barry. Waste paper management now. Millwall later," says Stevens. "Honestly Barry. A man of 48 really ought to be able to control himself."

"Yes Mr Stevens," I say. He's bricking it now, the mug. I hang up and email the cleaning personnel team, and then practice aggressive walking in my cubicle until lunch.

Lunchtime. Free. Outside. The Lion prowls. Trouble though. There's a gang of muppets on the corner. West Ham? They're only young 'uns, but they're probably tooled up, the scum. Two of them. I'm outnumbered. But these colours don't run.

"Come on then! Come on then!" I shout, flapping my arms up and down in a well aggressive way while walking away from them backwards.

The bigger one drops his ice cream. He starts to cry. Soon the other one is crying too.

"You slaaaaaaaaags," I shout. "Ooo are ya? Gertcha! Queen Mum! Ave a banana. Oi oi saveloy."

But hold up. It was a trap. There's another one. The top dog. Waiting in Boots. Clever.

"What the hell are you shouting at my kids for?" she says. "What is wrong with you? Scaring a five year-old in the street like that."

"I'm on your manor and I'm taking the piss," I say.

She's coming at me now. Hard. This is more than just a bit of handbags. She's tooled up: with an actual handbag. This is Luton 1985. This is Highbury 1988. This is Toys R Us 1995 when that Palace Young Team pushed me off the bouncy castle.

"Come on then! Do you want some?" I say, running in the other direction.

Course, I'm more built for raw power than speed, and after a few yards I'm wheezing, doubled up outside Dixons, lungs on fire.

They catch up to me, the three of them. The top dog's got that handbag. The small one looks mental, a proper psycho, covered in strawberry ice-cream like it's warpaint. The littlest one's got a Dora The Explorer lunchbox. The clever, clever slags.

"Why is that fat old man dressed like a young person, mummy?" says ice cream.

Is this how it ends? On the cold pavement outside Dixons? I'm going out with my head held high. They'll talk about me in the Dog And Fascist for years to come. I'm a legend. I'm a bloody Lions legend. I wait for the blows.

I feel a hot, wet sensation spreading over me. The blood, the glory, the end. I'm going to the great New Den in the sky a hero, a fighter, a geezer who never took a backward step. I hear a voice - is it God? Asking me to join His Firm, be a top boy?

"Mummy mummy, that silly fat man has done a wee in his trousers."

And then it all goes black.
