On this day in 1912, Woolwich Arsenal played Spurs (Middlesex) at the White City Stadium in Shepherdβs Bush, in a game to raise funds for the Titanic Relief Fund. In total the British public raised Β£450,000 β more than Β£2m in today's money.
Arsenal ran out 3-0 winners in front of an attendance estimated at around 5,000 as Thomson, Greenaway and Hanks scored in a comfortable victory.

shephards bush is in west London. the gooooners don't even know if they are coming are going, no wonder most of their fanbase is confused / mentally impaired, south London one day, west the next, then north, then somewhere else in north, then somewhere else in north.
wonder where they will set up camp this weekend?

one cup game in milton keynes hardly compares to moving a football club completely geographically

3 grounds in 100 years ago hardly compares to having 3 in one season when it comes to wondering where "they will set up camp this weekend"...

Masabumi Hosono survived the Titanic, but not the public's scorn.
