Under the lights at Anfield

It’s All About The Shirt
… & an unbelievable performance.

It was not the first time I had travelled down from Scotland this season to see The Arsenal play. And those first three matches had included a four nil defeat here at Anfield, and even a loss against Everton.

But this time it would be different. I’ve never enjoyed a draw so much. So proud of that unbelievable performance from the lads last Thursday night. A team that plays for the shirt.

Myself and friend had some Scotland flags which we like to proudly wave when Kieran Tierney plays in an Arsenal shirt, declaring support as a member of the Arsenal Scotland Supporters Club.

As some will have seen on TV, I was the one fortunate to receive KT’s shirt after the whistle at Full Time.

It seemed like as in a dream to have KT clocking me at the front with the flag and then making sure that his shirt was getting to me – quite an overwhelming moment and I still can’t believe it actually happened. Continue reading “Under the lights at Anfield”

Ray Kennedy – Arsenal Legend – R.I.P.

Ray Kennedy played upfront as a key player in the 1971 Double winning Arsenal team, an Arsenal Legend. Ray scored in the first leg of the Fairs Cup final in 1970 and also scored the winning goal that clinched the league title at White Hart Lane in the 1971 Double Year. A colossus of a striker for Arsenal who later became a midfielder for Liverpool, he won every domestic honour in the game in the 1970s and early 1980s.

Members of Arsenal Scotland Supporters Club shared the upset felt by other supporters’ clubs about the lack of full appreciation afforded to at his passing.
