Agree. The best chant in football.

The greatest Highbury image:

That is stunning. I don't think I've seen it before. When's it from? 50's?

I remember subscribing to the arsenal magazine a few years ago and they gave this picture away as part of the deal
It is of the 2nd game under floodlights at highbury 17th October 1951
Arsenal 3 Glasgow rangers 2 in a friendly

I think Highbury must've been the first ground I went to. It was either that or old Wembley. My mum went to a match whilst she was pregnant with me but I guess that doesn't really count haha.
