Dear Arseblog,
did you know that the man who currently paints the lines on the Emirates pitch has a connection with the club that stretches back to 1913? His great, great grandfather ran the newsagents close to Highbury and every day, as the great new stadium was being built, club officials would come in to purchase their copy of the Times? He became so well known that he was often invited to watch matches from the Director’s Box (or the Director’s Balcony as it was back then), and it was at one of the post-game, ether-fueled orgies that he met his future his wife who would go on to give birth to the man who fashioned the first red and white kit the team ever wore having been selected by none other than Herbert Chapman who loved the job he did on mending his britches (Chapman had an enormous package and regular pants left him in considerable pain).
:haha:
