Reckon I know a dozen people who follow the 'Ammers

Champions of Europe.


Been following them since the early 80's, gee how times have changed. I would say my love for them is on par with the Dogs.

And ironically enough before Abramovich came along their lat title was in 1954. I wonder if we could interest Abramovich in AFL and a club that hasnt had much success lately...

The trouble with the EPL is that only 4 or 5 teams can realistically win it. The whole thing is a big joke, the more money you have the more likely hood of a premiership. I started following Arsenal like Two Dogs when they won the double and Charlie George was a super star, but over the years I have found the whole thing boring with the same old winning.

Charlie George was such a great player. Thierry is by a long way my favorite Arsenal player but Charlie along with Tony Adams, Patrick Vierra and Cesc Fabrigas are on the second line.

It would be great. It definitely would help lure some of the top players to our club and who knows win a premiership but our league is based on salary caps so that won't happen but it is a dream.

I think Twodogs was employing a bit of sarcasm there ED.

My uncle and cousin roped me in to being a Man U supporter. My first game was the 1995 FA Cup Final, which was a 1-0 loss to Everton despite Man U dominating the attack after Paul Rideout's goal.

IIRC Everton had Gary Ablett playing at Left Back.

Gary Ablett died earlier in the year from Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a form of blood cancer. He is the only player to win the FA cup with both Everton and Liverpool. He also won two first division titles with Liverpool. He was a very good player.


In 1984 when Everton won the FA cup final they had a player called Kevin Sheedy although he missed the final but did win two first division titlles with the Toffees. Tragically he has just announced he is suffering from bowel cancer.
