Why do we care?

Evening gents. First article on ja606 but have been stalking these boards from the beginning.Ive finally plucked up the courage to make my first article!
Anyway my question is why do we care so much about arsenal? It dictates our life's from our mood to our plans.

Also I belive this team can comfortably achieve top 4 which is less than I hoped for before our signings but we have to be realistic. However I do think we have a bit more depth so a good cup run wouldnt be to much to ask.

Gunnerthru, how did you end up supporting Arsenal when you live all the way in Germany? why not support Bayern?

I don't go that regularly, I'm still at college and I live outside of London, my parents aren't even Gooners

I just work part time at Waitrose and try and buy whatever tickets I can with that. I haven't been to a big game for ages. But I do go sometimes, and I am grateful because the Emirates matchday experience is magical.

100 per cent

Are you a red memember?

That's one thing I never understood, fans who think their teams success is a reflection on their own life's. United fans are the worst culprits to be fair.

Don't get me wrong, your team succeeding is a great feeling but not one you should gloat about as if you participated in it.

I guess for me arsenal are an entity that you have an indescribable bond with, where you hope they achieve their best and you enjoy supporting them regardless of their performance. Watching arsenal is one of the things I enjoy the most in life I suppose.

Yeah, red member. I got a couple of club level tickets last season but I much prefer the normal experience far more atmosphere and chanting. I'd have club level scrapped if I had my way, we need more genuine, die-hard gooners.

Also I hate fans who support Real or Barca alongside an English team. Ridiculous.

I agree with this. It's okay to watch their matches and appreciate how good they are but don't jump on the bandwagon and try to claim a connection with them.
