I'm going to bump into the muppet.

Well, it is unsafe for him to take his usual seat so he now takes the corporate box as well.

I have not felt such a need to go full girl mode to a public event as I now do to this event.

But no, boy mode it is.

BITD you could've rubbed shoulders with Osama Bin-Laden, these days you have to put up with Alan fucking Davies

I had to Google him, my life was not improved by seeing his face.

Wear a Spurs shirt.

Not allowed to wear non-Arsenal colours in the corp box areas... one of the few rules there are for corp boxes.

The thing about Arsenal, is they always walk it in

This was once true, but nowadays they only score from corners

In a corporate box? None of the cunts will know anything about football, they will all be tourists talking about their Aston Martins and how they are thinking of buying a few acres somewhere. Probably.

I went to an Arsenal box once for an end-of-season meaningless game v Stoke. It was very weird, the most famous dude there was some American celebrity chef I had never heard of, he didn't turn up until half time and didn't watch a single minute of the game

Hmm... must buy an Aston Martin to really fit in

I was at the Emirates last time (possibly) they played Monaco there. Also on a free ticket.

You could reminisce about how Berbatov scored for Monaco that night - obviously just rubbed it in.

I absolutely love how riled Arsenal fans are getting with the 'Arsenal are the new Stoke' narrative. Long may it continue!

Enjoy your cold windy Wednseday night at the Britannia @Velocio

On that note, @Velocio you'd go far with phrases like "obviously you'd take Tuncay in his prime, but he'll do" about Martin Odegaard, or "they say he's the new Glenn Whelan" about Declan Rice.

Lots of nods of appreciation coming your way if you nail these sorts of comments.

Are they? I'm an arsenal fan and enjoying it very much. Most fans I know have been wanting us to get more pragmatic for about twenty years

I’m old enough to remember Marwood delivering hard, flat corner kicks to Steve Bould at the near post to flick on. It’s great to see this team being successful with a similar approach.

A field?

Actually they only score corners now. They are Stoke for public school boys.

Edit - sorry someone had already done this up thread

You could sound really knowledgeable by telling people that today is the 138th anniversary of Arsenal (called Dial Square FC then) playing their first ever match.

They beat Eastern Wanderers 6-0.

Rumours that @jonny was playing for the losing team are unfounded.

You could even say "we should never have left Woolwich".

Wasn't that last week?

Oh you're right... today is the anniversary of their first ever game :D nice... I'm going in the Dial Square box entrance too, I'll keep that knowledge handy
