I've seen a fair share of Arsenal shirts in my home town too. Round about 1998, and 2002 funnily enough. Now what do those dates both have in common.  |
Not nearly as much as United fans, besides this is not a comment on the club and their geniune supporters but the glory-hunting gits who demand instant gratification. 1998 is when it started for Arsenal, I used to always be able to get general sale tickets for Highbury until that year (I was actually at Wenger's first home game!) but after the double win? Nope.
It's only this year (and maybe last but I was at University) that I could go to a professional game again. Before then it was only friendlies and testimonials.
As a side-note the people who booed the team, and walked out of the stadium while demanding Wenger leave the club are examples of these fickle fans. When they remembered they supported Arsenal it was after the double win, now they feel cheated they haven't had the chance gain some reflected glory from Arsenal winning.
I am also sick of United fans who only supported them since the year they won the Treble gloating. You should be worried too because you'll have a generation of United fans who know only success and winning, the moment Sir Alex leaves and you go though a bad run they will feel cheated.
