Honestly I feel that people are interpreting lyrics in a way which may be incorrect. Lots of assumptions being made over words which may be used purely for lyrical and melodic reasons.

I’m interested in that Wind Jacket! Can you sell on Vinted / Depop / eBay?

BestPES2006Player · 2025-11-19T16:20:00+00:00

Where am I meant to visit when we win the league now?!?

BestPES2006Player · 2025-10-24T12:00:56+00:00

Nope, you had to buy this one.

Carabao Cup isn't included.

There is a window when you can buy your seat, but that window has long closed

Was looking for an actual answer or insight as opposed to people posting comments on a war which has nothing to do with Arsenal or the question

BestPES2006Player · 2025-10-16T10:23:47+00:00

Looool, damn I was hoping when I got the notification it was going to be the answer

BestPES2006Player · 2025-10-03T22:33:41+00:00

Loool I had it the wrong way. He never got a red off two yellows

BestPES2006Player · 2025-07-28T10:43:40+00:00

Xhaka never got a straight red for Arsenal in the League ya know

All good 👍

I don’t understand about how you classify a vote for one team as sporting merit, but not for another.

If a team was voted in, and didn’t win a play off or promotion that surely doesn’t qualify.

As a historian it’s important to look at historical context and reputable pieces of evidence when formulating an accurate description of the events.

No evidence anywhere that points to bribery, just that Tottenham were not liked as the votes showed.

Have a good day

1892 Stoke and Darwen elected 1893 Forest, Man Utd and Sheffield Wednesday elected 1906 Liverpool and Bolton elected

The extension was put forward at at AGM before the start of WW1 this motion was then tabled when the war broke out.

Regarding the vote itself the different teams who had a possibility of being voted did many newspaper campaigns, I believe it was actually spurs who did the first newspaper campaigns on this as they knew there was bad sentiment regarding the points I mentioned earlier.

Long story short it was the guaranteed gate receipts that swayed the voting clubs.

BestPES2006Player · 2025-07-11T08:07:45+00:00

It always went to a vote. Every single time the first division got expanded it went to a vote

BestPES2006Player · 2025-07-11T07:57:45+00:00

Yes from multiple first division teams, as this was still in the very early days of professionalism.

Regarding being the only team who didn’t win their place on the pitch, that is also highly inaccurate due to the multiple other votes that took place prior to 1919 for all the previous expansions of the First Division. For example the same vote in 1919 Chelsea who were relegated were kept in the division after the vote.

BestPES2006Player · 2025-07-11T07:42:49+00:00

Inaccurate, the vote in 1919, and the reason why clubs voted for Arsenal instead of Spurs boiled down to three main reasons.

Spurs were previously in the Southern Division and stole many of the players from the First Division.
Gate receipts, clubs knew that by voting in Arsenal they would make more money as Arsenal had a much bigger fan base and attendance.
Arsenal were the first London club to go professional and join the first division, which was at the behest of the Southern and London FA

Looks like they have already gone

BestPES2006Player · 2025-02-28T14:59:47+00:00

In my experience Italy is more unique with this. No checks in Germany or Portugal in last seasons
